The ALS in now engaged in the construction of a new hard x-ray beam line and insertion device for protein crystallography. The scope of work entails the reconfiguration of ALS Sectors 1-3 to make room for the new insertion device. The project will require the melioration of the ALS injection system as well as the development of a longitudinal RF kicker. A key aspect of the injector work is the development and integration of a nonlinear injection kicker (NLK) magnet system to facilitate top off injection without noticeable motion of the beam. The technology will, in principal, ultimately allow the removal of the conventional bump injection magnets presently located in ALS Sector 1. The nonlinear injection concept has been explored at several other light sources *. We examine the beam dynamics and magnet design requirements to adapt this technology to the ALS lattice with its 1.9 GeV beam. The work will review the injection beam matching, tracking simulations, the electromagnetic design and tolerance analysis, power supply design. The paper will also review the project plan for the integration of this technology into the ALS.
