HAZARDOUS WEATHER CONDITIONS. A. NWS operations must continue around the clock, 7 days a week despite adverse weather conditions. The NWS has decided all employees scheduled for operational work, or otherwise identified as operational by the station supervisor due to exigency of the situation, are "emergency employees." In accordance with Federal regulations, all emergency personnel are required to report for work as scheduled or to continue to perform their duties regardless of action taken to excuse other employees from duty.

Where multiple NWS facilities are within the same metropolitan area, only one NWS official is delegated responsibility to make determinations for all facilities in the area. In the Washington, DC metropolitan area, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management usually makes this assessment. 2. All NWS operational employees have been designated as emergency employees, however, it may not be necessary for all NWS emergency employees to report for duty in every hazardous weather event. Based on his/her assessment, the facility head will determine which employees who are scheduled for work will be required to report to work as emergency employees for that event. Based on the nature and duration of the event, the facility head may also determine other employees are needed to meet the needs of the agency during the event. 3. Within his/her delegation of authority, the facility head will determine if the situation warrants granting of any administrative leave or whether the use of a liberal leave policy is appropriate for any employees of the facility. 4. Should administrative leave be granted to employees who are not emergency employees (or who are not determined as emergency employees for the particular event), the facility head or designee will call (or otherwise notify in another mutually acceptable method) the employees scheduled for that day to inform them of their administrative leave status. 5.
