Remarks/comments:

- Crystal collimation is for the moment not in the upgrade baseline. The installation carried out in LS1 for MD studies is not part of these conceptual specifications.

- Other collimator activities to be addressed as system consolidation are not discussed in these documents. Only the upgrades involving new designs is addressed.

- Collimator that might have to be changes in order to withstand the failure scenarios with updated HL/LIU beam parameters are also not discussed for here (e.g., new primary and secondary collimators to be changed in case the 288 bunch loss scenario at injection is no more safe).
