The Run Coordinator is the immediate on-site manager of the experiment
and is responsible for ensuring that the physics goals of the experiment
are met. This individual is designated by the experiment spokespersons
and approved by the Hall Leader. The Run Coordinator shall ensure that
the Hall Group Leader, Physics Division Liaison, and at least
one Spokesperson are aware of all pertinent issues. The Run Coordinator
shall promote an environment in which the highest safety
standards are maintained. The functions of the Run Coordinator are:
I. To manage daily operation of the experiment:
to ensure that the run plan is clear to the shift workers.
to define the data quality appropriate for the goals of each shift.
to track the progress of the experiment.
to coordinate and schedule activities (e.g.,
Hall accesses) in order to optimize productivity.
to ensure that an experiment checklist is completed every 24 hrs during
standby shifts.
to ensure that the counting house is manned appropriately: ie,
sufficient personnel are present to safely carry out the experimental
program or babysit the apparatus as needed.
II. To coordinate interactions between Jlab and the experiment. This
entails:
informing the Program Deputy of the experiment's status and plans at
a 7:30 AM meeting in the MCC during the working week, and at an agreed upon
time on weekends or holidays.
representing the collaboration at 8:00 AM meetings during the working
