About this file

This memorandum provides base support instructions for the King Salmon Divert Airfield (KSDA) for Fiscal Year 2022, issued by the 611 Air Support Squadron Program Management Office. The document outlines critical requirements for personnel accessing the remote Alaskan facility, including mandatory Site Arrival Request (SAR) submission, which must be approved by PRSC Security prior to travel and must detail specific support needs.

Key operational constraints include extremely limited resources: no on-site meals, minimal lodging, no warehouse space, no medical support, and restricted photography. Equipment and transportation support are available through the ASRCC (site contractor) on a non-interference basis, with equipment rental and personnel transportation possible within normal work hours. Contractors must coordinate extensively in advance, potentially up to four months, due to the facility's remote location. Additional notable restrictions include prohibition of firearms, strict photography limitations, and requirement to coordinate waste disposal and storage through local community resources.

a. SAR shall be submitted to PRSC at 611ASUS.KS.Org@us.af.mil and require approval prior to booking transportation to the site and incurring travel costs. Requests for a SAR form document can be sent to the same email address above.

In order to ensure Base Operations Support (BOS) contractor support, requests must be agreed upon, detailed within the SAR, submitted to the designated email address, and approved prior to incurring costs. Coordinate with ASRCC, BOS contractor, at (907) 721-3001, prior to arrival. ASRCC may establish a direct purchase order to provide support for the following services:

a. Equipment may be rented on a non-interference basis (i.e., ASRCC requirements/needs shall take priority over third-party usage) to include an operator, as ASRCC does not allow others to use equipment.

b. Transportation of personnel and material in and around the site options may include, but are not limited to, transportation to and from the commercial airport during contractor mailto:611ASUS.KS.Org@us.af.mil mobilization or demobilization within normal work hours, Mon-Fri, 0800-1700L.

c. Billeting Resources.

Note that bed space is limited. The requestor will provide a schedule with anticipated manning requirements at the beginning of the project. Personnel will notify ASRCC of any changes in manning at least seven (7) days in advance. No guests, visitors or spouses are authorized to stay in lodging.

(2) Units/Agencies with Interagency Agreements (IAA). All tenant personnel requiring overnight lodging will incur a man-day charge, as stated in the IAA.

10. Strictly no still or video photography is allowed without the consent/approval of the PRSC.

All requests and justification for official or business-related imagery must be detailed in the SAR and shall be vetted through 611th ASUS Security Manager.

Personnel taking photos or videos must be aware of their surroundings and what is being captured in the photo or video; limiting it to the specific items of interest and minimize exposure of critical assets, security measures, or other concerns.

11. Firearms and ammunition are strictly prohibited on KSDA. Firearms and ammunition storage must be coordinated with the Bristol Bay Borough Police Department (BBBPD) prior to submitting the SAR. Firearms and ammunition must be turned in to the BBBPD for storage prior to arrival at KSDA.

12. All base support included in this memorandum is available on a non-interference basis. Due to the remoteness and unique situation at KSDA, base support availability is subject to change at any time without notice. Contractor must request any support they require far enough in advance to accommodate the significant lead time necessitated by KSDA logistics; the requirement may necessitate four (4) months advance.

13. This memo supersedes previous KSDA Base Support Letters.

14. If you have any questions or concerns contact the PM Office via email milagros.realon@us.af.mil or (907) 552-7399.
