| AL0059 BCSB TECHNICAL STAFFDescription: Users in this category are technicians, scientific engineering associates, engineers, and scientists who run the beamlines and also perform maintenance on the beamlines.Hazards: Liquid nitrogen; Synchrotron Radiation; computer security; ergonomics; electrical; hand tools; LOTOClasses required (in addition to inset boxes) EHS 170 – Cryogen Safety ALS 5005 – Beamline Radiation Safety AL0162 Programmers/System Admin for the BCSB beamlinesDescription: Users in this category run the beamlines either remotely or locally in order to collect diffraction data only. The beamlines are controlled via a computer interface. Some sample handling using liquid nitrogen may be necessary, but no beamline maintenance is allowed.Hazards: Liquid nitrogen; Synchrotron Radiation; computer security; ergonomicsClasses Required (in addition to inset boxes) SEC 201 – Computer Security (required of all LBNL staff) EHS 0059 – Ergo self-assessment computer user Users of the BCSB beamlines (covered under the ESS)Description: Users in this category run the beamlines either remotely or locally in order to collect diffraction data only.
