EMERGENCY WEATHER RELEASE
What I am looking for is more specific guidance regarding release in emergency conditions. After the congestion on the day of the Air Florida crash, there was talk of having a uniform releasee policy to reduce traffic congestion. One plan was to release workers who lived furthest away first, then nearer workers based on a geographic zone. Was the zone release ever implemented? Has weather forecasting been improved? Are release patterns coordinated between and among agencies? What about the support contractors? This is the Office of Personnel Management site for policy regarding Dismissal or closure of Federal Government offices inside the beltway. http://www.opm.gov/oca/compmemo/dismissal.asp We (OPM) will notify agency Human Resources Directors and Chief Human Capital Officers of any decision to "close" Federal agencies, or announce an "unscheduled leave," "delayed arrival," or "early dismissal" policy. Information will be available at http://www.opm.gov/status/index/asp.
