An emergency leave transfer program has been set up for federal employees impacted by the severe storms and flooding in southern Louisiana. The attachments to this e-mail are the memo from President Obama authorizing this leave donation program and the other is from OPM with information for agencies on setting up this leave donation program. The Department is working with the NCFLL to establish a program for our impacted employees. Specific guidance from the Department will be going out. Previously we have asked you to consider making a donation of the gift card to the assistance program for these co-workers of ours. Please also consider making a donation of annual leave to them. For the employees who have lost everything the recovery time will drag on for some time and any help we can give will be greatly appreciated.
Please widely distribute this e-mail and also post it on union bulletin boards.
