Snow Events & Base Closure

BELOW IS THE 509TH BOMB WING APPROVED DIRECTIVE FOR WEATHER ALERTS

1. BASE OPEN: All Team Whiteman members report at their normal scheduled duty times -- this is our normal day-to-day reporting status.

2. DELAYED REPORTING: During this status we delay reporting until no earlier than the time specified in the message you receive. For example, “Due to ongoing snow removal, all personnel--except those designated as mission essential—should delay reporting until 9:30 a.m.” If your particular shift report time is after the report time in the message, you report at your normally scheduled time, such as swing and mid-shifts. This reporting facilitates effective and efficient snow removal and will get our mission execution back on track as soon as possible.

3. LIMITED REPORTING: During inclement weather events, unit commanders will identify sections and individuals that will report to base based on current mission requirements. All others stay home; you will be provided regular updates on the status of the base. Mission Essential personnel should be explicitly aware of their role and designation as mission essential. If you have any questions regarding your role, please use your chain of command to determine your reporting status and expectations.

During a Mission Essential Personnel Only status, many base functions and services will be closed or severely limited. Exercise the utmost caution on roadways if you are travelling to work. As always, Airmen should maintain contact and communication with their chain of command.

4. EARLY RELEASE: This occurs when the installation commander directs an early release from duty, which may result from a weather event or any emerging situation. The message you receive will specify the affected demographic. Regular updates will be provided to ensure personnel are aware of the base status for the following day.
