This report is based upon an earli~r document: The Fermilab Upgrade -- An Overview, which was issued in January 1989. The upgrade is designed to maintain and extend the potential for High Energy Physics under the constraints imposed by the US program to build the SSC and in the context of the world's inventory, existing and soon to exist, of particle accelerator facilities. Fundamental to this proposal is the assumption that first rate physics with major discovery potential is an essential ingredient in the pre-SSC era. It is likely that the Upgrade program will also develop unique and important niches in collider and fixed-target physics in the period beyond the SSC operation.
