There are two badges needed to access ESE, one LBNL badge and one Wareham BAB (Building Access Badge). The LBNL badge allows access to the 4th floor via elevators, while the Wareham BAB gives access to the street-level doors and the 1st-floor lobby.
NOTE: The Wareham Bldg. badge DOES NOT apply to undergrads.
Undergraduates must access the building via the ESE first-floor lobby. Furthermore, undergraduates must be monitored by their work lead or supervisor while they are working in the labs.
LBNL Badge Information for ESE Elevator Access
You may NOT enter the building if your LBNL badge is not activated, nor can you borrow someone's badge or walk with someone else into the facility. While waiting for your badge appointment, you will need to remain working at home. For new hires: in addition to obtaining the LBNL badge, you must complete all your online training before working onsite and notify ESE-Admin@lbl.gov to activate your badge.
If you aren't scheduled to come in but need to drop off or pick up something from ESE, please arrange this with another worker who is scheduled to come onsite that day. You may meet at the ground floor lobby or outside the building.
A few things can deactivate your LBNL badge:
1) GERT expired,
2) change in your employment (ex. term to career),
3) badge expired (check the expiry date on your badge).
If 2) or 3) occurs, you need to make an appointment at the badge office on the hill to obtain a new badge. Please contact siteaccess@lbl.gov for an appointment. Your supervisor will need to justify why you need a badge and how you are part of the pilot phase for return to work onsite.

Wareham Badge for ESE Building Access
To obtain the Wareham Building Access Badge (BAB), reach out to ESE-Admin@lbl.gov to request a badge from the building management. They will notify you once it is ready for pick-up.
When entering the Wareham building, you will walk through the lobby and head to the elevators. It's on the second floor. Exit the elevator, you will see a conference room, go in the opposite direction, and walk down the long hallway. There will be signs leading to room #288. Head straight down the hallway and at the very end, turn to your left. Keep going straight until you see the office on your right that says, Wareham. Please tell the front desk that you are here to pick up your Wareham badge; state your name and JBEI.
For badge replacements and badge-related issues, please send an email to Jasmine Ario at JArio@lbl.gov.
See the images below for reference.
The Wareham office is located across the street from JBEI. The address is 5858 Horton Street, Suite 288.
