Task Force Knighthawk

Beginning Monday January 30— Two additional gates on post will open during morning hours to give motorist alternate access to the installation and air field and help relieve morning traffic congestion. The Nash gate on NYS Route 26 across from the Wheeler-Sack Army Airfield and the gate at Munns Corners and NYS Route 3a in Deferiet will be open from 5:30 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. Monday through Friday to Department of Defense ID cards holders only. The opening of the Nash gate is expected to ease traffic along NYS Route 26 in Great Bend. The gate in Deferiet will provide an alternate route to the airfield. These gates will not be open during the weekends or holidays. The other six access gates will remain unchanged. Mt. Belvedere, Iraqi Freedom, Gas Alley and Wheeler-Sack gates are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Black River gate is open Monday through Friday 5:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

On Post Housing Regulation

Per the handbook for residents and the community managers for housing (Fort Drum) that Snow accumula-tion of 3 inches or more must be removed due to SAFETY. If residents do not remove the snow, they will be fined. The community housing areas managers actually do inspections of yards and common areas during winter WITH CAMERAS and take photos. The fines are: $50 for snow that is not removed from the driveway and walkways leading to the residences. Each community center also has a listing of contractors who do snow removal on post AND they also have a listing of "VOLUNTEERS FOR A FEE" that live in each housing area. Here are few contractors who do on post snow removal (you must call for pricing): Snow Removal Providers: Cutting Edge 778-6132 Powel Landscaping 214-1416 Rayex 783-1561 Trudeau Property Services 771-0708 * Please contact a Community Center to be included on the snow removal provider list.
