If you have any specific questions, please contact User Services at SPSD.Userservices@noaa.gov between 7:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. (EDT), Monday through Friday, at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled start of the outage. If we receive one or more communications from sites requesting that the outage be rescheduled, the request will be reviewed with OSPO management to determine whether it is feasible to reschedule the outage. The upgrade to the Production Zone router will not be done on a Critical Weather Day, or if there are other significant operational issues warranting postponement. This planned outage will be postponed until August 9, 2012 if a Critical Weather Day is declared on August 8, 2012. No date past August 9, 2012 has been planned and will require a new outage notification. At the close of this outage window we expect all services to resume as normal. If you find that any of your services are still affected after the close of the outage window please use contact information listed below. Contact Information for Further Information: For information on the status of this outage, please contact ESPC Operations at ESPCOperations@noaa.govand 301-817-3880, and and our network team by phone on 301-917-3887.
