## Overview
This briefing covers the period from April 30 to June 10, 2026, focusing on the progress and challenges encountered in the RPL10 GSEF and CMDF areas. Key themes include ongoing inspections, necessary adjustments to installations, and outstanding requirements for splicing and labeling.

Confirmed rack positioning in EF1. Operations began to anchor the racks into place after shifting the racks over 4 inches to avoid hitting the bolts on the nearby columns.
Conducted a field walk with the superintendents and FE's. Walked the GSEFs and reviewed the plan on supporting the crossovers with Unistrut.

Conducted a field walk of GSEF 1/2 and CMDF 1/2. Ground bar is needed to complete GSEF 1/2. Samuel wants a FOK of the GSEF done by lunch Wednesday.

Conducted a 50% walk in CMDF1, found that the ladder rack supports were spaced further than 6ft, as found in the specifications. Notified the field team and they are correcting the issue.
Walked GSEF1/2 to prepare for the 100% walk. There are some RFI's that need resolution before we can close the room.

Completed a field walk with the FE team through the GSEF's 1/2, CMDF 1/2, and IDFNX5.
Photos of the temporary 2 post rack in GSEF 1 for the temporary splices were taken. Temp splices of two 192 fibers in IDFNX5 were completed by Clear Core.
SFE Paul informed us that the horizontal ladder runway in both CMDF's will have to move away from their respective walls by approx. 5" to allow for adequate space for the fiber to be routed within the bend radius. The changes will be redlined after installation per Hargis. This will also allow for the horizontal crossovers to be installed with out the overhead support. As the CMDF's have been buildout to spec, the FE's are reviewing to see if this will be a change order.
