SNOLAB, an international facility for underground science, is presently under construction at a depth of 6000 meters of water equivalent (m.w.e.) at Inco’s Creighton mine near Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. Building on the success of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, the creation of SNOLAB will provide the deep‐site infrastructure required of next generation particle‐astrophysics experiments in pursuit of low‐energy solar neutrinos, neutrinoless double beta decay, and cosmological dark matter. Following an enthusiastic response from the scientific community to a call for Letters of Interest (LOI’s) in staging experiments at SNOLAB, an initial set of recommendations have been developed to guide the scientific program at this new facility.
