  The next generation of high-energy physics experiments requires high
intensity protons in the multi-GeV energy range for efficient production of
secondary beams. The Fermilab long-term future requires an 8 GeV proton source
to feed the Main Injector for a 2 MW neutrino beam source in the immediate
future and to provide 4 MW pulsed proton beam for a future neutrino factory or
muon collider. We note that a 3GeV cw linac matched to a 3---8GeV FFAG ring
could provide beam for both of these mission needs, as well as the cw 3GeV
experiments, and would be a natural and affordable scenario. We present details
of possible scenarios and outline future design and research directions.
