[Lab] Zing 24 performance issue

[Ryan Stec]

We are going to test it out this week, but due to construction the exhaust
to the parking lot is no longer available. All windows on the first floor
of the building facing the construction site are boarded up as they are
using blasting techniques to excavate. This situation is likely long term,
but we don't have specific details about the boarding. The blasting and its
accompanying jack hammering is to continue through the fall.

We will update if the cable replacement works and also on the conditions of
M76.

Cheers
Ryan
