Hannah,
I have another issue I need assistance with. We have a constituent in Two Harbors, Minnesota, who is reporting to work today at the FAA facility in Minneapolis (the closest FAA facility to him) as required by the end of the work-from-home policy. However, this individual was granted work-from-home status before the pandemic, and he and his family moved 180 miles from an FAA facility as a result of this negotiated status.
b)(6)
has no issue with returning to in-person work, but he is hoping he can work at another
government facility in the Duluth area instead. He has, on his own accord, reached out to the US Forest
Service facility and US EPA facility nearby, and they both said they could make room for him should the
FAA make the request. b)(6)
and his manager have asked FAA leadership if this is possible, but
their emails have gone unanswered. This is not something new, as the FAA put out a fact sheet on the
employee website that said this could be allowed on a "case-by-case" basis (see screen grab below).
Can we get (b)(6)
an answer? Until such time, he is either driving six hours/day commuting to and
from Minneapolis or paying for a hotel.

0: Can FAA employees work at other federal government buildings if an FAA facility is not within 50 miles of their home?
A: Requests to work at a federal building other than an FAA facility will be determined 09 a case by case basis
Q: There are many examples of project-related impacts on the availability of significant portions of facilities such as RO buildings. Periodic maintenance projects, such as paint, carpet replacement or furniture replacement - or power/HVAC or water system outages or system maintenance efforts can render RO buildings and other FAA workspaces unusable in part or in total for anywhere from hours to several weeks or months, especially if staggered work is occurring throughout the building. In these situations, can an employee request telework?
A: The LOS/SO has the authority to implement management-discretion limitations and processes for telework within their organization in alignment with the FAA Administrator's agency-wide approach, when applicable and in accordance with policy. Situational telework may be an option. Under situational telework, telework is approved on a case-by-case basis.
Flex Time
0: Will employees have the option to telework during off-hours to address requests for Information, respond to calls, and attend meetings (e.g., airport mundtables, which are held at night and virtual)?
A: Whether to allow telework for the performance of work during off hours and on weekends is at management's
discretion. Situational telework may be an option. Under situational telework telework is approved on a case-by-case
