This morning I found a wbnonmetal boat sitting on the wet bench deck.  Next to it was a mystery handle (3", white tag).  These contaminated items have been removed from the bench and placed on the table next to the rapid thermal annealers.
Please respect the need to keep the bench and boats clean. The boats should only be placed on the inside of the box lids, never on the bench or the clear shield. Boats and handles should not travel from bench to bench.
Thanks to someone's carelessness, we now have one fewer boat to work with at wbnonmetal.

I found a wbnonmetal wafer boat sitting on the bare plastic splash sheild this morning, 4/19/03 at 8:15 am.  I have removed this contaminated boat from the bench and placed it on the bench by the RTA.  I also found a giant trail of dried Ammonium fluoride crystals leading from the 6:1 BOE to the dump rinser.  It must have been quite a large and visible spill to have left this large amount of crystals on the bench.  PLEASE CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELVES!!!!!  And stop leaving boats on dirty surfaces!  The only thing the boat should come in contact with is the inside of the box lid.  Pretty simple.
