I. Discussion of PIFs for assignment
P080307.1 NSA/SGP/TWP/SONDE - Occasional incorrect surface values of T/RH
Discussion: RID-488
Actions: OK

II. CARs submitted for PIF closure
C080306.1 Submitted by Robin Perez for
P080228.2 SGP/EF/C1/B1 - duplicate time records with different data
Discussion: Can we throw out 1% of data, if data overlap throw
them both out. Can we leave a flag in the files that
indicate that records have been deleted and time might be
off leading up to this event. Raymond alternate
suggestion: write a parsable log every time records are
deleted, with time and number of time-steps deleted. Need
to check for these duplicate records during reprocessing
as well and write similar logs. Jim: keep the original
files and mark them "bad-time" and archive along with the
fixed files. Robin to submit an ECR.

Dan Hartsock will take over SWATS mentorship as well.
Need to swap datalogger connections to the new sensors.
Will use OK-mesonet DQ procedures. Justin will help with
that.
Problem/Data Quality Reporting - Robin Perez
External Data Center - Rick Wagener
CSPHOT unit arrived in Alaska with some parts missing.
George at SGP has located some "extra" parts checking to
make sure these were the ones that are missing. Also need
to address an inventory problem related to those parts.
Desperately need this to be tracked in a more accessible
form for everybody, i.e. through the OSS. Laurie to
follow-up with Jeff Zirzow and George.
