The EBIS Project at Brookhaven National Laboratory will replace the Tandem Van de Graaff accelerators with an Electron Beam Ion Source, an RFQ, and short linac, as the heavy ion preinjector for RHIC. This project, jointly funded by DOE and NASA, will provide a modern preinjector which will have increased flexibility in providing beams to the various programs running simultaneously, will be capable of providing beams not presently available for RHIC and the NASA Space Radiation Laboratory, and will be simpler and less costly to operate. Presently in the first year of the four-year project, the detailed design is nearly complete, and some major procurements have been placed. The overall status of the project will be presented, as well as some unique features in the design, and results from the R&D using the prototype EBIS.
