Consider these areas to be waived.

However, they are having a lot of trouble accessing a secure airspace in the region. There is a “drill” going on for the past several days and they cannot get any information on when it will be complete and they can fly in that airspace. The following areas have gaps that have not been covered: FID 1 – 2.48 acres FID 13 – 0.06 acres - ~ 242 sq meters FID 14 – 0.02 acres - ~ 64 sq meters There is also one area that is a narrow road that was included in the original task order that also has a gap. ACA could not fly it last time due to airspace restrictions and once again we are having trouble accessing the same location. Below is the image showing the gap: (the red polygon is missing area) and the blue polygon is with the buffer. Given the access restrictions in this airspace, would it be possible to get a waiver for these areas? We would appreciate any guidance.
