Subject: effect of nearby CES construction 

For the proposed construction in the NW corner of the CES building (near the 40m BS chamber), they did a simulated construction activity on Wednesday from 12-1.

In the attached image, you can see the effect as seen in our seismometers:

this image is calculated by the 40m summary pages codes that Tega has been shepherding back to life, luckily just in time for this test.

Since our local time PDT = UTC - 7 hours, 1900 UTC = noon local. So most of the disturbance happens from 1130-1200, presumably while they are setting up the heavy equipment. If you look in the summary pages for that day, you can also see the IM lost lock. Unclear if this was due to their work or if it was coincidence. Thoughts?
