Natural and man-made events can impact the normal operations of NBK. Day to day, the base will fall into one of three categories:
1. Open (regular operations): Business as usual.
2. Mission Essential Personnel Only: Check with your leadership to ensure this applies to you. CRITICAL: If conditions are dangerous at your home, use good judgement and contact your supervisor. Leadership doesn’t want anyone putting themselves at risk via their commute.
3. Base is closed: All personnel should stay home.
Note: Full base closures are rare. We more often see an initial declaration for Mission Essential Personnel Only followed by a return to Normal Operations later in the day.
Other ways to stay up to date on base weather conditions and status:
Sign up for AtHoc notices by following these instructions or contacting your command emergency management officer.
Follow the NBK and NavyLife Facebook pages for up-to-date information.
Call your chain of command.
Be safe in all things and remember that communication with supervisors is critical during emergency situations.
