Abstract

SNOLAB is a new international facility for Underground Physics that has just begun operations in Sudbury, Canada. In the following we present the current status of the facility construction and operational readiness. We also describe the experimental program and the infrastructure available to support the program, with a focus on the direct dark matter search experiments.
