From the meeting
At its August 21, 2026 meeting, the committee heard that recent storms caused material damage to the terminal. Repairs were already underway, power was restored on August 20, and the team was working on communications with fiber optic lines to be reinstalled in the next few days. Communications were being handled by Starlink Satellite during the repair period.
This is a live facilities recovery item with likely follow-on work around restoration and communications resilience.
