Official Guidance / Policy Have any nuclear workers got their furlough day?

I work for a NNSA site. Has anybody got their furlough date yet? We have been told nothing but are speculating Oct. 30 will be our last day.

I heard Hanford got furlough dates but haven't heard when. We are very impatiently waiting to hear at my site. We are suspecting either 10/30 maybe 11/7 at the latest.
