sPHENIX discussion of the superconducting solenoid

["Makdisi, Yousef I" <makdisi AT bnl.gov>]

To all,
 
   While Kin is correct. The area postings in 912 seem to change depending
on the type work being done. I will defer to D. Phillips as the current
magnet location is temporary and likely to change when work on MPS magnet
removal is done. 
   Another possibility is escorting as Kin proposed or to delineate the
area for the time being as controlled area. But let us wait till Dave is
back.

Regards,
   Yousef
