We describe a new detector, called NuLat, to study electron anti-neutrinos afew meters from a nuclear reactor, and search for anomalous neutrinooscillations. Such oscillations could be caused by sterile neutrinos, and mightexplain the "Reactor Antineutrino Anomaly". NuLat, is made possible by anatural synergy between the miniTimeCube and mini-LENS programs described inthis paper. It features a "Raghavan Optical Lattice" (ROL) consisting of 3375boron or $^6$Li loaded plastic scintillator cubical cells 6.3\,cm (2.500") on aside. Cell boundaries have a 0.127\,mm (0.005") air gap, resulting in totalinternal reflection guiding most of the light down the 3 cardinal directions.The ROL detector technology for NuLat gives excellent spatial and energyresolution and allows for in-depth event topology studies. These features allowus to discern inverse beta decay (IBD) signals and the putative oscillationpattern, even in the presence of other backgrounds. We discuss here testvenues, efficiency, sensitivity and project status.
