It is further recommended that all contracts, other than the contract for general work, be assigned to the contractor for general work. T h e project consists of the construction of a reinforced concrete structure of five floors above grade with a partial floor below grade. Initially, the structure will accommodate 500 cars with expansion capability for an additional 900 cars. T h e ultimate capacity will total 1,800 cars in a four-bay, ramped structure of nine floors above grade. It is also recommended that the firm of Desman Parking Associates, Chicago, be employed through the construction phase at a fixed fee of $35,000 for administration and for on-site observation on an hourly basis not to exceed $36,000, plus reimbursables authorized by the University, an amount estimated to be $40,000. A schedule of the bids received has been filed with the secretary of the board for record. This project will be financed from the proceeds of the Series 1985 and 1986 Auxiliary Facilities Revenue Bond issues and from the Restricted Funds Operating budget of the Parking Division.

Expansion of Nuclear Physics Laboratory, Urbana

(12) T h e Department of Physics of the College of Engineering at the UrbanaChampaign campus has been notified by the National Science Foundation that its proposal for a $21 million, 450 MeV Microtron Accelerator has been approved by the National Science Foundation Board. A determination concerning the availability of funds may be made in January or February 1988. In accord with the terms of the proposal, the project is to be operational within a three-year period and will require that the University provide facilities to house the accelerator and provide expanded service space. T o meet this time schedule, it will be necessary for the University to employ an architect/engineer to undertake the planning of the facilities as soon as possible. T h e proposed project, whose construction cost is estimated at $16.8 million, will include the construction of an accelerator facility with a beam transport tunnel, the remodeling, and addition to the existing facilities at the Nuclear Physics Laboratory. T h e 30,400 gross square feet accelerator facility will have specific requirements for cooling the accelerator, electrical supply, shielding, structural design, and utilities extensions. T h e remodeling and addition involves the con-
