Dear Colleagues,
The Director of the DOE Office of Science,
Bill Brinkman, recently presented the
President's FY2013 Budget request to the
House Subcommittee on Energy & Water Appropriations.
His formal statement can be found at:

The following AIP FYI Bulletin provides a summary
of the meeting itself including some of the
Director's answers to questions:

Of particular note is the following:
"
[Ranking Minority Member Peter] Visclosky asked about
the status of the Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment
following the decision that the National Science
Foundation will not participate in the program. Brinkman
praised a report that the high energy physics community
had developed, but said it had "a very high price."
"I don't see us as being able to do that specific
experiment" he testified, saying that the FY 2013 request
would enable DOE to continue pumping water from the
Homestake Gold Mine and to conduct two smaller
experiments.
"
Sincerely,
Norman Graf
