SCoE DECISIONS ON BRAC HR ISSUES

• When will employees be allowed to Early
  Register in PPP?
• Since mission needs and employee placement
  prospects are different at each site, this
  decision is delegated to local commanders.
• Amount of TQSE to be authorized?
• Subject to funding availability, an initial
  grant of 60 days will be given, and, if
  justified, the Orders Authorizing Official can
  approve 30-day extensions up to a total of 120
  days.
• What Personnel Actions will be processed for
  employees?
• Once employees accept geographic move
  offers, they will be placed into separate
  competitive areas. When the employees are placed
  into the new BRAC positions, reassignment
  personnel actions will be effected.
• TRADOC Mandatory Surplus Placement Program (MSPP)
  Clearance Process
• Registration will occur at the same time as
  DODPPP registration. Each CPAC will register
  their serviced employees in MSPP and clear their
  serviced TRADOC vacancies prior to DODPPP
  clearance.
• Which CPAC(s) will fill vacancies after Volunteer
  Process is completed?
• CPAC serviced populations at APG, Fort
  Eustis, Fort Lee, and Redstone will all increase
  under BRAC. This issue has been elevated to the
  SCR and CHRA for resolution.
