Open Forum Meeting
The main purpose of this meeting is
to find out from you, the user, what are the most important concerns
related to your work and your life at BNL. Members of the Users
Executive Committee regularly are asked to convey your needs
directly to representatives from BNL management, the DOE, and others
who are in the best position to affect our experience both as
scientists and as members of the BNL community. The best way for us
to make sure that the needs of the users are accurately represented
is for us to hear from you.

UEC: Past, Present, and Future -- Brant
Johnson, BNL |
|
| A brief overview and perspective will be given
of the history, current activities, and future plans for the
RHIC & AGS Users' Executive Committee. While quality of
life issues for users - such as on-site housing, transportation,
and site infrastructure are still very important - the focus of
the UEC has shifted due to the changing climate of regulations,
restrictions, and funding challenges. The broad topic
areas to be addressed in the talk are: Brookhaven Site
Access, Funding and Political Action, Meetings and Open Forums,
and Quality of Life. Feedback from the user community will
be welcomed and encouraged. |

What is HSPD-12? -- Tom Schlagel, BNL |
|
| Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 was
issued by President Bush on August 2004 and specifies the use of
a Personal Identity Verification (PIV) standard to grant access
for federal employees and contractors to federally controlled
facilities and computing resources. BNL and the UEC are
seriously concerned about potential negative implications for
user access to facilities such as RHIC & AGS. |

discussion items as well! |
