User Registration
All researchers coming to the NSLS to work on a beamline must have an active appointment with
Brookhaven National Laboratory which involves an online registration process
and approval. In some cases, it can take up to 120 days to
obtain necessary approvals, so early registration is
strongly suggested. Click here
to begin the process. |
|
PLEASE NOTE: All new users should confirm that all
necessary approvals are in order before traveling to the NSLS. If you have questions, please contact the
NSLS User Administration Office at (631) 344-7976.

Safety Training
All new users and users with expired badges must complete/update their safety training prior to
access to the experimental floor. These training modules can be completed online prior to arrival
at the NSLS. This is strongly recommended since it saves a considerable amount of time during the
check-in process at the NSLS. Click here
to complete the online safety training.

Safety Approval Form
A Safety Approval Form (SAF) must be completed for every experiment at the NSLS to reduce
or eliminate possible risks and hazards associated with your experiment. SAFs must submitted
through the Proposal, Allocation, Safety and Scheduling (PASS) https://pass.nsls.bnl.gov/
at least 7 days prior to the start date of "routine" experiments. SAFs are good for 1 year. For
experiments that present unusual risk, you must contact the NSLS Experimental Review Coordinator
directly as early as practical during the planning of your work. Time is needed to review
your form and for configuring appropriate controls. Some experiments require committee
review, which may take several months to complete. For complete information on safety at
the NSLS, consult the Environmental Safety and Health Guide.
