As of June 2008, construction of the GNL is approximately 95% complete! The facility remains on track and on budget.

The GNL is scheduled to reach substantial completion in late July, with final completion projected for late August.

These levels of completion will allow us to begin the process of delivering equipment into the building.

Between July and September, we expect over 90% of the laboratory equipment will be brought into the facility. Researchers and staff are projected to begin moving into the facility in September.

This will all be in advance of the GNL's formal dedication ceremonies which are set to take place in mid-November 2008.

GNL Construction start date: May 2005
