Summary:A new facility, DRAGON, designed specifically to measure radiative proton- and alpha-capture reaction rates involving radioactive reactants is being installed at the new ISAC accelerated radioactive beams facility. A description of the planned experimental program, specifications of the components, status of the installation (as of March 2000), and the planned schedule is provided in this report. Further, details on the gas target, the electrostatic dipole system and the detection system are also provided.
