On the Prévessin site CERN has provided a picnic area, which is available for use by persons working on its site subject to prior reservation. The person in charge of this picnic area is Mr Mathieu FONTAINE (GS-IS).
Following a fresh outbreak of incidents (damage to CERN equipment and to trees and plants, privately owned sheep killed or maimed by dogs belonging to users of the picnic area, etc.), the following measures have been taken :

1. a report on the state of the picnic area will be drawn up before and after use,
2. the cost of any damage noted will be borne by the person making the reservation,
3. dogs and other domestic animals are strictly forbidden in the picnic area.
