The material for the closeout review including talks are all on
https://indico.bnl.gov/event/5980/

On this page I added the 3 final documents: close-out report, lessons learned, and the transitions to ops.

 The close out review for STAR has been scheduled for May 2. The notice from DOE is enclosed here
This page will be used for the preliminary material, Final talks and material will be put on a BNL indico page
as we did for the previous reviews.

As the iTPC project is neither an MIE no a project for the CD process, I believe the requested closeout and transition to ops documents
can be fairly brief.

Please draft an agenda and a list of proposed documents to be sent to the review panel prior to the review  (for example, previous review report, response to DOE Review Recommendations, etc.). Please note: background documents should also include a draft Project Closeout Report, draft Transition to Operations Report, as well as a draft lessons learned document.  Once the draft agenda and the list of proposed documents have been prepared please send this input to me for comments – I will collect comments from all applicable individuals within the NP office and will iterate with you on the agendas to ensure all topics are covered. Once the materials have been finalized, please make the background materials, as well as presentations, available to review participants in electronic form as soon as possible but no later than two weeks prior to the review (presentations can be made available at a later date, however, we request no later than 5 days prior to the review).
