The repaving project will transition to lane restriping during daylight hours prior to 3:30 daily beginning approximately April 29. This will also result in moving lane closures that may cause temporary traffic stoppage.

Drivers should anticipate significant traffic delays on Rosamond Blvd. throughout the length of the repaving project, which Kern County officials expect to last through the end of May or early June.

Look to The Tower for updates on future phases of the road project.

For more information, please contact the Public Affairs Office at 661-277-3510.

Beginning on Monday, April 7, and continuing through Aug. 20, a road repair project for South Lancaster Blvd. (between Rosamond Blvd. and Jones Road) will occur. The project includes crack sealing and repairs, slurry seal operations and striping operations.  The roadway will remain open during the work and will occur during non-peak traffic times; however, there will be lane closures during the duration of the project.  A traffic control plan will be in place with cones, reduced speed and construction flagmen, so please use caution when driving through this area. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact Ms. Renee Velarde, Project Manager, at 661-277-3791. 

Drivers and pedestrians should use caution in the construction area and follow all signs and detours. Park away from the zone due to windblown debris, dirt and small rocks. Expect noise, uneven surfaces and heavy equipment.

The U.S. Air Force is accepting public comments on the Update to the 2023 Community Involvement Plan for environmental restoration activities at Edwards Air Force Base, California. Base officials developed the Community Involvement Plan, or CIP, to guide environmental investigation and cleanup communications.

The CIP identifies current and potential community concerns, provides guidance for communicating with the local public and establishes an action plan to address those concerns through various activities. The CIP has been updated to include a section on emerging contaminants and has been reformatted for better accessibility.

The CIP is available for review online at https://www.edwards.af.mil/About/Environment and at the following repositories:

The public review and comment period for the Community Involvement Plan ends April 12, 2026. 

Written comments can be mailed to: Gary Hatch, 305 E. Popson Ave., Edwards AFB, CA 93524. Electronic comments can be e-mailed to 412tw.pae@us.af.mil. Air Force officials will respond in writing to any public comments received on the updated CIP. A public meeting to discuss the CIP may be held if there is sufficient public interest. Details of the time and location of the meeting, if held, will be provided at a later date during the comment period.

The office of Special Investigations, Detachment 111, is working vigilantly to identify, neutralize and exploit foreign intelligence entities. Our adversaries will attempt to take advantage of our services members, DoD/DAF Civilians and DoD/DAF contractors due to recent US government actions. Due to the recent government agency shutdowns, layoffs, resignations, and other government actions, it would be highly likely for members to receive solicitations, job offers, information requests through social media, email and other electronic means. Some of these attempts can be done through email phishing attempts as well. If you feel you may be solicited or have received suspicious messages, members are encouraged to not reply or delete these messages and report immediately to the OSI Det. 111 at john.grabowicz@us.af.mil or 661-277-5106.

Employees desiring to initiate an authorization for dues withholding may obtain an SF 1187 from any AFGE steward or official.  The effective date will be the first full pay period after receipt of the SF 1187 by the Civilian Pay Section. 
Employees wishing to discontinue their dues withholding may obtain an SF 1188 from the Civilian Pay Section or the Labor Relations Office.  Discontinuance of dues withholding will be effective as follows:
1) For an employee who began dues withholding allotments before 11 January 1979; Beginning the first full pay period following 1 September provided the SF 1188 is received by the Civilian Pay Section prior to 1 September.
2) For an employee who started dues withholding on or after 11 January 1979 but before 10 August 2020; Beginning the first full pay period following the particular anniversary date (the anniversary date is the starting date of the first pay period for which dues were deducted from the employee’s pay).
3) For an employee who started dues withholding on or after 10 August 2020, the Agency should process the request as soon as administratively feasible if at least one year has passed since the employee initially authorized union-dues assignment from the employee’s pay.

If you work or reside at Edwards Air Force Base in uniform or as a civilian, and if you have one or more children attending school(s) on base, please answer the Impact Aid Survey to help our district receive this very important financial aid.
IMPORTANCE
Edwards Air Force Base is a federal property exempt from local property taxes, which triggers a lost local revenue for Muroc Joint Unified School District. To offset such special challenge, along with increased expenditures for federally connected children, Congress allows the district to receive extra funding through the Impact Aid Program.
DIGITAL SURVEY
The Impact Aid Survey has been sent to families digitally via ParentSquare/email. In previous years, the form was a physical piece of paper that had to be returned. Parents must complete the online form for each child enrolled in school. Two school aged children = complete the online form twice.
CONTACT
If you haven't received the email/app notification or if you have questions, please reach out to Rebecca Balkenbush, School Liaison Program Manager, at 661-277-2456 or 661-902-8335 or 412.FSS.School.Liaison@us.af.mil

The veterinary treatment center is currently at a critical man shortage and are prioritizing availabilities outside of the primary mission to armed force members PCSing overseas. There are only a very few limited appointments available for the health certificates and this varies based on primary mission needs. Vaccines and sick call appointments cannot be accommodated currently. This may change in the next couple months. We apologize for the inconvenience. Phones will be checked once every two weeks for voicemails. Return phone calls can take longer depending on concentration of calls. Email for clinic (Edwardsafbvtf@gmail.com) is checked periodically as able. Patience is greatly appreciated. 

Alternative clinics in the surrounding area for veterinary needs. It is recommended to keep copies of all medical records from off base clinics and make sure the microchip number is on the rabies certificate when obtained.

For those PCSing, please visit https://www.aphis.usda.gov/pet-travel to help in preparation. The earlier you can alert the vet clinic of an estimated departure date, the better. 

Any event off the installation involving 50 or more DoD personnel, or 300 or more DoD personnel on the installation, are required to notify the Antiterrorism Office NLT 30 days prior to an event. 412 TW/ATO can be reached at 412tw.ato@us.af.mil or 661-277-4009/4004.

It's never too early to prepare for retirement! Retirement planning is not a one-time event, but a career-long strategy of financial literacy and mindfulness. It is recommended you begin planning at least five years before your projected retirement date.  

The myFSS Civilian Benefits and Retirement homepage offers several knowledge articles to assist you with planning and applying for retirement. The articles explain your benefits, requirements to continue benefits into retirement, retirement eligibility and much more. The homepage is located at: https://myfss.us.af.mil/USAFCommunity/s/knowledge-detail?pid=kA0t0000000wkzfCAA.  

In addition to the myFSS knowledge articles, the Government Retirement Benefits (GRB) Platform offers a ‘Resource Library’ of videos and information regarding retirement and benefits. Additionally, employees who have “pure” service may obtain an annuity estimate using the ‘Retirement Calculator’. “Pure service” is service fully creditable for retirement purposes, i.e., no breaks in service and all service is covered by the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS). The GRB Platform is located at: https://grbplatform.us.af.mil.  

The Benefits & Entitlements Service Team (BEST) also offers regularly scheduled Benefits 101 and FERS Retirement briefings to provide additional information and answer general questions for participants.  

If you are retiring within the next 6 months, and have not already done so, we recommend you review the “Applying for Civilian Retirement” knowledge article in myFSS. Reviewing this article will assist you with ensuring you are completing all appropriate steps prior to submitting your retirement application.  

BEST utilizes myFSS for all communication. As such, we recommend you update your myFSS profile to include your personal email address and review your email, including junk/spam, for any benefits or retirement related correspondence. 

On May 7, the Office of Personnel Management released a memorandum titled “Implementing the President’s Department of Government Efficiency Initiative for a Modernized, Efficient, and Expedient Retirement Process.” This government-wide initiative introduced important changes regarding how retirement applications are submitted to OPM. Effective July 1, all new retirement applications must be submitted electronically using OPM’s new Online Retirement Application system. ORA enables federal agencies and payroll providers to collaborate with prospective federal retirees in the assembly and submission of a retirement application packet.
****If you have already submitted or submit your retirement application prior to July 1 no action is required of you, and you do not need to contact the Benefits and Entitlements Service Team (BEST).**** 
If you have already submitted your Retirement Request for Personnel Action but have not submitted your retirement application prior to July 1, additional instructions will be sent to you, you do not need to contact BEST at this time.  
For future retirement planning, employees should continue contacting their supervisor to ensure the retirement RPA is submitted to BEST no sooner than 6 months prior to your retirement effective date.
Once BEST receives your RPA, a BEST counselor will create your ORA retirement account using your personal email address only, official duty email addresses cannot be used. Once your ORA account is created, you will receive an email providing you a link to your ORA dashboard; where you will complete your retirement application, upload your supporting documentation, and submit your package. Please monitor your junk/spam folder for this notification. 
To ensure BEST has your personal email address, you are encouraged to update your profile in myFSS. To do so, log into myFSS (www.myfss.us.af.mil), select the Profile icon in the upper right-hand corner of the myFSS landing page, and select Profile, then select Update Personal Preferences. There you will add your personal email address and select Next, then Finish.

Edwards AFB Visitor Control Center would like to remind all personnel the changes in Installation Access requirements. The safety and security of the base remains our top priority and adherence to these requirements listed below ensures safe and efficient access to Edwards AFB. Military personnel, civilian employees, contractor’s dependents, and base residents are not impacted by this change. These groups may continue to use their Common Access Card or Uniformed Services identification Card for base access. 

Starting May 7, members without a Common Access Card or Uniform Services Identification Card need a Real ID-compliant driver’s license or identification card to gain base access. Real ID-compliant licenses and identification cards are easily recognizable by a star in the upper corner of the card.

The Real ID Act was passed by congress in 2005 to enhance national security. The goal was to make it difficult to produce counterfeit IDs and it creates a verification standard across all states.  

IDs that contain the markings: “Not Valid for Federal Purposes,” “Not for Use as Federal Identification,” “Federal Limits May Apply,” or any other similar phrase are no longer an acceptable credential and must be utilized in conjunction with a federally accepted credential.

Retired Civilians who do not possess a real ID can bring a copy of their SF50 along with their nonfederal issued ID, original birth certificate with raised seal and social security card.  They will be issued a DBIDs card for a period of 1 year (365 days).

Visitors who do not possess a driver’s license or identification card compliant with the REAL ID Act need to present two valid forms of identification to gain access to base. Accepted forms are listed below:

• United States Passport or United States Passport Card.
• US Birth Certificate of Naturalization or Certificate of Citizenship (Form-550).
• Enhanced driver’s license issued by a State, territory, possession, or the District of Columbia.
• Any other U.S. Federal, State, territory, possession, or District of Columbia Government-issued credential bearing a photograph, including credentials from other paragraphs in this section that are deemed acceptable by the DoD Component head and consistent with applicable laws. (ex. Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, FAST, TWIC, Tribal Card, VHIC, PIVs).
• Identification Card Issued by Federal, State, or Local Government Agencies Provided It Contains a Photograph and Biographic Information such as Name, Date of Birth, Gender, Height, Eye Color, And Address.
• Any other government-issued credential bearing a photograph and deemed acceptable by the DoD Component.
• Non-CAC LRC issued by the local installation or region.
• Permanent Resident Card/Alien Registration Receipt Card (Form I-551).
• Foreign passport with a temporary (I-551) stamp or temporary (I-551) printed notation on a machine-readable immigrant visa.
• Foreign passport bearing an unexpired immigrant or non-immigrant visa or entry stamp.
• Foreign Government Issued Passport with Current Arrival-Departure Records (INS Form 94) Bearing Names as the same name as the passport and containing an endorsement of an Alien’s nonimmigrant status, it that Status authorizes the Alien to work for the employer.

Our adversaries will attempt to take advantage of our services members, DoD/DAF Civilians and DoD/DAF contractors due to recent US government actions. Due to the recent government agency shutdowns, layoffs, resignations, and terminations it would be highly likely for members to receive solicitations, job offers and requests through social media, email and other electronic means. OSI Detachment 111 is not attempting to impede your progression into other employment, if you so chose, however the companies who may solicit may be operating under nefarious purposes. If you feel you may be solicited, members are encouraged to not reply or delete these messages and report them immediately to OSI Detachment 111 at john.grabowicz@us.af.mil or 277-1138

Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (29 U.S.C. 794d), mandates that Federal agencies ensure their information and communication technology (ICT) is accessible to employees with disabilities. This means that when developing, procuring, maintaining, or using ICT, Federal employees with disabilities must have access to and use of information and data comparable to that of their non-disabled counterparts, unless doing so would impose an undue burden on the agency.

For any Section 508 matters, please contact your Base Section 508 Coordinators, Elissya Searcy and Erika Lybbert. They serve as technical advisors, offering guidance on Section 508 requirements, ensuring you get the assistance you need to comply with these essential accessibility standards.
