CLOTH FACE COVERINGS

All military, civilian, contractors and all other individuals entering any NAVAIR building are required to wear face coverings. Face coverings must be worn in all common areas, passageways, stairways, restrooms, elevators and any shared workspace (examples: laboratories, range control rooms, SCIFs, prototyping and manufacturing facilities, etc.).
