  1. LBT Q1 2007 Engineering Review ETP Elevation Track Protection (oil contamination remediation)

  2. Highlights (Q1/2007) • Elevation Track Protection in large measure a consequence of HBS capillary installation. • Plugging the air galleys and installing resistors at the pads reduces the oil consumption by 50%, increases stiffness by ~12%. LBT Q1 2007 Engineering Review

  3. LBT Q1 2007 Engineering Review

  4. LBT Q1 2007 Engineering Review

  5. Open Issues • Technical • Vacuum system yet to demonstrate it is a viable solution • Schedule • None • Financial • Facility installation of a vacuum system will be expensive, ~$100k • Resource • Mountain support pacing operation LBT Q1 2007 Engineering Review

  6. Progress (Q1/2007) • Delivered Hoover (vacuum scavenger) to LBTO, 1st attempt at use stopped because of venting aerosols • Installed coalescing filter and external vent line. LBT Q1 2007 Engineering Review

  7. Planning (Q2/2007) • Run system during 2nd qtr. • Identify problems, measure oil extraction rate at 1 corner. LBT Q1 2007 Engineering Review
