Abstract
The use of existing Fermilab facilities to provide beams for two muon experiments -- the Muon to Electron Conversion Experiment (Mu2e) and the New g-2 Experiment -- is under consideration. Plans are being pursued to perform these experiments following the completion of the Tevatron Collider Run II, utilizing the beam lines and storage rings used today for antiproton accumulation without considerable reconfiguration. Operating scenarios being investigated and anticipated accelerator improvements or reconfigurations will be presented.
