The SNS project was completed with only limited SRF facilities installed as part of the project, namely a 5 MW, 805 MHz RF test stand, a fundamental power coupler processing system, a concrete test cave shell, and temporary cleaning/assembly facilities. A concerted effort has been initiated to install the infrastructure and equipment necessary to maintain and repair the superconducting Linac, and to support power upgrade R&D. Installation of a Class10/100/10,000 cleanroom and outfitting of the test cave with RF, vacuum, controls, personnel protection and cryogenics systems is underway. A horizontal cryostat, which can house a helium vessel/cavity and fundamental power coupler for full power, pulsed testing, is being procured. Equipment for cryomodule assembly/disassembly and cavity processing also is being designed. This effort, while derived from the experience of the SRF community, will provide a unique high power test capability as well as long term maintenance capabilities. This paper presents the current status and the future plans for the SNS SRF facilities.
