The transformation of the Oak Ridge astrometry from a photographic program to a charge coupled device (CCD) program can now be considered complete, and the number of observations being made is now approaching an order of magnitude greater than in the old photographic program. Astrometric observations with the 1.5-m reflector were made at the Oak Ridge Observatory, and the progress, accomplishments, and projected accomplishments are presented.
