>CISL is increasing all the division allocations by 40% for

>There are several reasons we can make the increase.

>1.  With blueice now in production the reduction in HPC

>2. The charge factor on bluevista has been increased since
>allocations were made in January 2005, so there are more
>GAUs being generated and thus more can be distributed to
>various groups.

>3. Some of the May 1 capacity increase is being distributed
>to NCAR "early".

>The ESSL Reserve has been also been increased by 40%.

>Please let me know if you have any questions.
