Countdown to Shutdown: Note date change to THU 12/20 & bin update!

Dear Labmembers -- Please note the following changes to the lab shutdown:

Lab Shutdown Date/time: 7 am THURSDAY, Dec. 20 (yes, one month from
today!) That gives everyone an extra 14 hours of play time. Everything
on WIP shelves and common storage must be removed from the lab by then.
Lab will still reopen for business on Tuesday, Jan. 8, at 7 am.

Update to Lab & Locker policy: Personal items must be cleared from Lab
bins and lockers by Thursday, 12/20. EXCEPTION: Labmembers can keep bin
and locker assignments if they (and their PI's or organizations) are
willing to accept a full year of bin or locker charges in January, as
per the new lab storage policy (see below). Contact Maureen or Mahnaz
(mbaran@snf or mahnaz@snf) if you would like to do this and your bin or
locker will be tagged. But please also be aware that there will be
non-Stanford contractors working in the building during Winter Closure
and SNF cannot be responsible for valuables left in storage.

New bin & locker storage policy: Bin and locker fees will be charged
when assigned to you, for rental through Dec. 2013. So, in January, it
will be 12 months of fees (e.g., $120 for a medium sized bin, not
including overhead.) If you're assigned a bin in March, that will be 9
months. Some details still need to be worked out, but in general, the
objective is to simplify billing and ensure inactive bins/lockers don't
accumulate by encouraging an annual cleanup. Any questions on this,
please contact Aubrey Martinez (aubreym@snf)

Thanks for your attention --

Your SNF Staff
