What We Need Your Input On

The design team was tasked with two key tasks:

• providing guidance on how to select an algorithm for the root zone, and
• investigating how a rollover could be conducted.

The team specifically seeks feedback on their recommendations and whether the rollover methods are appropriate. The exact timing of an algorithm rollover and the design of detailed operational plans was out of scope for the design team.

Kind regards,

James Mitchell
