The High Energy Physics Division at Argonne National Laboratory and Westinghouse Science and Technology Center, Pittsburgh Pennsylvania have worked jointly on a scintillating tile/fiber calorimeter with the SDC collaboration since it`s inception in 1989. During the design and prototyping phase of the last three years, we have particularly worked on the development of an innovative cast lead approach to the absorber and the associated design of tile/fiber packaging for the barrel electromagnetic calorimeter (EMC). A full scale prototype program was initiated in 1992 to construct four EMC castings to be mated to respective steel hadronic wedges fabricated in China and presently at Fermilab. This proposal we outline in detail both the tasks that we have completed and those that we propose to complete in order to make the extensive investment in this technology useful to others in the field.
