N2 - The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) has recognized the need for developing in-housecapability to ensure long term sustainability of the superconducting linac (SCL). SNS hasmade substantial gains in the last 6 years in understanding SCL operation, including systemand equipment limiting factors, and resolution of system and equipment issues. Significanteffort and focus is required to assure on-going success in the operation, maintenance, andimprovement of the SCL and to address the requirements of the upgrade project for theSecond Target Station. These interdependent efforts include implementation of demonstratedimprovements, fabrication of spare cryomodules, cavity R&D to enhance machineperformance, and related SRF facility developments. Cryomodule and vertical cavity testingfacilities are being developed to demonstrate process capabilities and to furtherunderstand the collective limitations of installed cavities. The status and future plansfor SRF facilities at SNS will be presented.
