All career, term, and temporary employees, as well as Participating Guests and Contractors, need to contact the Site Access Office to receive an ID/Prox card. This ID/Prox card provides access to the Laboratory, as well as access to various buildings. Site Access is located in Building 65, lower level, and is open from 8 AM to 12 noon and from 1 to 4 PM. A current appointment must be verified before an ID/Prox card will be issued. Please contact your administrative support person to determine if a copy of your most recent paperwork is required and must be brought to the Site Access Office. (Foreign visitors need to call the Foreign Visitors’ Office at ext. 6515 to go over the necessary paperwork and to make an appointment with the Site Access Office.)

Casual visitors coming to the Laboratory need to be granted access in advance by a host contact. Please stop at one of the entrance gates for a parking permit and day pass. The host must provide this information in advance to the Gate Officers regarding expected casual visitors.

Vendors must contact the Site Access Office for temporary parking permits.
