Attachment J-18 Snow and Ice Removal.pdf

This document is a weather emergency planning guide for NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC), dated October 30, 2023, outlining procedures for snow and ice events. The plan details specific protocols for seven 24/7 and emergency response buildings: Payload Control Center (4663), IT Mission Control (4629), Communication Hub (4207), Security (4312), Medical Center (4249), Utility Control Center (4250), and J911/EOC (4708).

The document includes detailed site plans showing designated areas to be cleared of snow and ice, marked entrance points with handicap access, and parking areas requiring priority treatment. The plan specifies that facilities will implement preventive measures when snow/ice is predicted by NWS Huntsville, with specific focus on clearing parking lots, walkways, and stairs once employees are cleared to return to work. Areas that cannot be made safe will be cordoned off and blocked. The plan is implemented when brine pre-treatment proves insufficient and includes special provisions for both 24/7 emergency response buildings and mission-critical buildings to maintain continuous operations during weather emergencies.
