Abstract
The Central Outer Tracker is a large cylindrical drift chamber constructed to replace Collider Detector at Fermilab's original central drift chamber for the higher luminosity expected for Run 2 at the Fermilab Tevatron. The chamber's drift properties are described in the context of meeting the operating requirements for Run 2. The design and construction of the chamber, the front-end readout electronics, and the high-voltage system are described in detail. Wire aging considerations are also discussed.

The experience of the Collider Detector at Fermilab with aging in the large axial drift chamber responsible for tracking in the central region is presented and the observed aging rate fell dramatically in test chambers.
