Building and site maintenance service
P. Cogo (ILL)
The Building and Site Maintenance Service focused this year mainly
on the following projects:
Preventive and remedial maintenance of buildings and equipment: The ILL4 roof has been resealed and the facade of ILL3 refurbished, while the ILL19 sanitary facilities have been completely renewed. The self-service workshop has been equipped with LED lighting, as has all the fencing surrounding the EPN campus. Following problems with the compression refrigeration system, the cold unit installed in the Carl-Ivar Brändén Building has been replaced.
General improvements to existing installations: The ILL20 second floor lab and the NPP Group labs in ILL1 have been renovated, while the ILL7 building has been completely renewed to L2 norms with the creation of a clean room.
We also prepared the location for the PAN-EDM experiment and ensured that WASP was equipped with fluids and electricity.
The ILL now has its own waste-recycling centre, located beyond the Works Council and PCS3 buildings. This will facilitate waste management, particularly in light of security standards for Basic Nuclear Installations.
New offices have been created on the first floor of ILL22, with 40 cm concrete reinforcement measures. These will accommodate ILL staff currently located in the ILL7 offices, which will now be used for experiment casemates.

Post-Fukushima reinforcement: Work on the truck unloading bay has been completed, as has the water-proof painting of the annular space.
Reinforcement of Physical Protection project (RPP): All the projects for installing the new controlled-access area have been launched. These include the installation of barriers around the area, a new reception building and a liaison building between ILL4 and ILL7.
A network of surveillance cameras has also been installed to improve protective measures on the ILL site.
The Building and Site Maintenance Service was also responsible for converting the old SANE laboratories
in ILL26 into new stores. Most of the ILL3 stores were transferred in mid-June. This is also part of the physical protection project; the new stores will be located outside the controlled-access area and will serve as a checkpoint for all in-coming goods.
