Staffing is based on ability to perform work remotely § Staffing: § How many of your staff are not able to work due to the current shelter-in-place orders? § Majority of project staff are matrixed; some can continue to contribute, some cannot, a few who cannot contribute to the project are able to contribute to other programs § About ~6 FTE technicians on AUP are unable to work § About 1 FTE QA Engineer on AUP will soon be unable to work § Are there concerns about retention, and ability to re-start work quickly when it is safe to do so? § Potentially, in particular for key technicians whose experience and expertise are vital to the project. § Are you able to maintain hiring plans? What schedule delay results, if any, and is there a cost impact? § Cabling: Hiring for engineering QA support for Cabling was completed before COVID-19 and those staff are in place. A support technician for cabling was also on-boarded shortly before the shelter in place order. § Structures: Additional hiring for technician support is underway; delays based on current shelter in place orders are tolerable.

302. 2. 07 Procurements Continue as planned § Procurements, vendors and supply chain: § are existing awards being delayed by the vendors, and if so what impacts do you predict? § Major awards, i. e. for the primary components needed for magnet structures, are continuing since the vendors have been deemed essential. § There are potential issues associated with component acceptance and vendor payments. These are currently being evaluated and will likely be addressed differently on a case-by-case basis. § Some fabrications are internal to LBNL and are currently delayed. Since the production process at all of the labs is on hold, these delays are consistent with (i. e. do not add to) the delays associated with cable/coil/magnet assembly/magnet test. § Braiding Master Agreement: bottle neck is at LBNL, no cables can be sent till ~3 weeks after we can return to work § Can these be mitigated? § The delays associated with internal fabrications would be difficult to mitigate, and we do not see them as critical at this time. Maintaining production of the major structure elements is of high priority. § Yes! Even very restricted lab access would enable specific, critical, QC tasks on Cabling to advance. § Can specifications, RFP/RFQs continue to be developed and awards made? § We are continuing with all awards per our P 6 schedule. In particular, we are proceeding with the placement of ~$3 M worth of POs under Master Agreements. § Do you or your vendors anticipate supply chain problems, and can these be mitigated? § We have not yet seen supply chain problems, but we are closely monitoring the situation as these may arise with the upcoming POs.

Fabrications at LBNL are stopped § Fabrication and R&D at LBNL § Can any work continue? § At LBNL, work is continuing on design, QA/QC, documentation (including Engineering Change Notes, Non-conformace reports, Interface Control Documents, etc. ) § At LBNL, work on cable fabrication and on magnet assembly is on hold. § How many FTEs are impacted and what will be the expected cost and impact on schedule? § As noted in “Staffing”, ~7 FTE of technical staff are directly impacted. The cost impact is currently negligible as those staff are either performing work on other projects, or are on Admin leave. But Admin leave is fast running out. § The impact on schedule is direct: fab and assembly work schedule delay is directly proportional to the time we are in shelter-at-home mode of operation. § This delay is essentially the same at all participating laboratories (FNAL, BNL, LBNL; and likewise CERN). LBNL incurred ~1 week additional schedule delay as our shelter-in-place order began roughly 7 days before FNAL and BNL. Further schedule delay offsets will depend on when the three labs resume normal operation, and external dependencies. LBNL Status and Restart Planning 8
On site vendors – impact to project § On-site vendors § are they de-mobilized? If so, what is the impact? § In-so-far as LBNL machine shops are classified as on-site vendors, yes, they are de -mobilized and that impacts various smaller-scale fabrications that are needed by the project. Since all assembly work is on-hold, we do not anticipate the delay in inhouse fabrications to add any delay to our assembly work. A potential issue relates to res-start activities and priorities (see below). § Will they be able to re-start work quickly when it is safe to do so? § We have placed web-job orders (WJO) for on-site machine shop work. If the shops are able to perform those fabrications upon restart of LBNL operations, we do not expect further project impact. However if a significant backlog of WJO are being placed, there could be a significant impact if AUP orders are not prioritized. LBNL Status and Restart Planning 9
EH&S issues and response § ES&H: § Are your project work areas safe and secure? § All technical areas were brought to a safe and stable situation prior to lab closure. In particular care was taken to protect from earthquake and possible sprinkler system failure. § Are your staff able to get adequate support to ensure they have a safe work environment? § Staff who can work are doing so via telecommuting. We are working with staff to identify and address possible ergo-issues. LBNL Status and Restart Planning 10

LBNL Communication flow related to COVID-19 § Laboratory communication of response to COVID-19 § Regular calls from COO & Lab Director to lab management – Division Dir. /Dep. § Typically Monday / Wednesday / Friday, plus ad-hoc calls with new updates § AUP-relevant attendees: Symons, Schenkel, Patel, Prestemon § Regular calls from Accelerator Technologies and Applied Physics Div. Director to Program heads and Deputies § Typically 2 -3 times/week § AUP-relevant attendees: Patel, Prestemon, Ferracin § Regular calls from Engineering Division Director to EG Supervisors § Typically 3 -times/week § AUP-relevant attendees: Prestemon LBNL Status and Restart Planning 12
Timeline § Lab went into warm shutdown mode March 17 th § Lab on warm standby through May 3 rd § Actual restart date will come from lab management, based on DOE, state of California, and local county § Admin leave authorized for up to 320 hours (8 weeks / 40 work days) § We are working under some assumptions when planning restart activities: § that restart will be “limited” and ramp up over time § That work will be prioritized and approved at the Division level, within guidelines provided by lab management § That for a sizeable period of time the lab will strive to reduce on-site footprint (i. e. telecommuting will be highly encouraged where possible) LBNL Status and Restart Planning 13
Laboratory priorities for restart work are being defined § The lab has a dedicated Restart Planning Group that is tasked with developing guidelines for work restart § AUP-relevant member: Patel § Priorities will include, for example: § Address staff who are on Admin leave (i. e. must be on-site to perform work) § COVID-related work, DOE priority projects, 413. 3 b projects, etc. § Guidelines from RPG will be folded into our work planning process § Divisions have significant say in what work they prioritize initially § AUP is one of two (independent) top priorities for ATAP § Within AUP, priorities are: Cable QC => magnet assembly => cable fab § We expect these will be able to proceed in parallel and as soon as lab opens LBNL Status and Restart Planning 14
