The CCAT is a 25 meter diameter submillimeter wave telescope, currently in <br /><br /><br /><br />
the planning phase for construction and operation in the Atacama Desert, <br /><br /><br /><br />
Chile. When it is operational, it will be the premier ground based <br /><br /><br /><br />
facility for submillimeter wave astrophysics with an unmatched wide field <br /><br /><br /><br />
survey capability and will host leading edge submillimeter imaging and <br /><br /><br /><br />
spectroscopic focal plane arrays. The CCAT wide field survey will <br /><br /><br /><br />
complement the high resolution capabilities of the nearby ALMA <br /><br /><br /><br />
facility. I will describe the current plans, highlight the capabilities <br /><br /><br /><br />
and present an opportunity for partnership in the consortium. <br /><br /><br /><br />
