6. ILCSG • Two major steps forward planned for 2004: • ILCSG will set up a “wise-person” committee to recommend to ILCSG the choice for the accelerator technology • ILCSG will undertake the task of setting up an internationally-constituted design group that will coordinate the development of a technical design report • Maury will cover these topics on Wednesday

7. USLCSG – University R&D Program • USLCSG – coordinated proposal review process worked well in 2002. Money is now flowing to PIs • We will follow a very similar process in 2003. We have invited back the same group of reviewers as last year. All but one will serve again • May need to tweak the process a little in order to be more helpful to agencies

8. 2002 LC R&D Review Committees • Detector Committee: • Howard Gordon, Brookhaven (chair) • Rolf Heuer, U. Hamburg • Steve Olsen, U. Hawaii • Mike Roney, U. Victoria • Sally Seidel, U. New Mexico • Hitoshi Yamamoto, Tohoku U. • Accelerator Committee: • Norbert Holtkamp, ORNL (chair) • Phil Burrows, Oxford • Jean Delayen, JLab • Tom Himel, SLAC • Hugh Montgomery, Fermilab • Katsunobu Oide, KEK

10. USLCSG – Scope Document • USLCSG Detector/Physics Subcommittee took on the task of defining the key machine parameters. They have produced a document which is the basis for the comparative study of warm and cold technologies • Mark Oreglia will describe this in the next talk

12. USLCSG – Guidance for the Technology Choice • The USLCSG accelerator subcommittee took on the challenging task of providing for the world community a comparison of a US-based machine using either warm or cold technology. This task will be complete before the end of 2003 • Gerry Dugan will describe this later today

13. USLCSG: Charge for Technology Options Study • Two technology options are to be developed: a warm option, based on the design of the NLC Collaboration, and a cold option, similar to the TESLA design at DESY • Both options will meet the physics design requirements specified by the USLCSG Scope document • Both options will be developed in concert, using, as much as possible, similar approaches in technical design for similar accelerator systems, and a common approach to cost and schedule estimation methodology, and to risk/reliability assessments

14. Evolving to an Internationally-based Effort • Once the technology decision is made, an internationally-constituted design group needs to be formed with the task of providing a Technical Design Report that is truly owned by the international partners. The USLCSG is formulating a concrete proposal on how to achieve this. Such a proposal is needed as input to the ILCSC discussions this summer • Maury Tigner will describe this and other aspects of our international affairs considerations in his talk on Wednesday

15. Discussions with Washington • Since January 2003, there have been active, ongoing and constructive discussions with both agencies, OSTP and OMB regarding an internationally-constituted LC. These discussions center on providing for the Government a clear picture of the US and international scientist’s discussions and proposed plans These meetings have provided a mechanism for getting invaluable feedback regarding our planning as well as preparing the government officials for the initial discussions that are now beginning amongst the governments of the three regions • We have an all-day meeting this Thursday in Washington which includes representatives from the DOE, NSF, OSTP and OMB22
