Water was purged from the T1 and T2 targets using compressed air.  The water is stored in a labeled bucket on the BL1A blocks near the T2 cooling package.  The bucket is approximately 100µSv/hr on contact and 10µSv/hr at 0.5m.  Isaac's coveralls had 500cpm on them after this job and were dropped off at active laundry.  Keith had no contamination on his coveralls.

 Four water sensors have been installed on top of the T1 monolith.  These water sensors were wired and brought to the area during the 2014 shutdown, but installation was delayed so that the top of the monolith could be painted first.  The sensor labels (attached to the sensor cable) are: T1, T2, T6, and T8.  The location of each sensor is documented on the diagram below.  Two photos of the top of the monolith are also attached.  Doug Preddy has been notified.

All water was removed from the base of the target hole in the T1 monolith using a suction tube device and wypalls.  Video inspection was performed and revealed standing water in the unused 4" beam line pipe facing south as well as on the bellows on the M13 beam line.  (Photos attached)

Vacuum group is currently pumping down on the T1 volume to remove the remainder of the water.

 The west side manipulator was removed from the hot cell using the new manipulator removal frame.  The operation went smoothly and required about one hour with two operators after everything had been prepared.  No contamination was found on the manipulator thru-tube or slave arm.  Only 50cpm were measured on the wrist assembly of the slave end.

Randomly checked on the nuclear ventilation for the Meson Hall Hotcells and discovered they were not running again (both magnahelic gauges displayed zero). Attempted to restart the fan manually and the control box seems to not be working. Matt McClean has been contacted and they will look into the problem.

The nuclear ventilation is currently not running in the RHMH hot cells.

blah blah blah....
