Abstract :
We present the Cherenkov Ring Imaging Detector in the endcap regions of the SLD detector and report on initial performance during the 1993 and 1994 runs at the SLC. The endcap CRID was completed and commissioned in 1993 and is fully operational for the 1994 run. First Cherenkov rings have been observed. The endcap CRID detectors and fluid systems are described and initial operational experience is discussed.<>
