## General

Tower must:
- Advise the overlying sector of the runway(s) in use.
- Advise the overlying sector of the: current ATIS code, and when field conditions change to or from basic VFR minima.

## Coordination
### Departures

When simulating the lack of Flight Date Input/Output (FDIO), the IFR clearance must be obtained from the overlying oceanic sector and relayed to the aircraft.
Bucholz ATCT obtains releases from Oakland Oceanic.
Oakland Oceanic issues a “depart at-or-after” time and a “clearance void” time with each release. Tower must ensure these times are met.
Tower must call Oakland Oceanic with a departure time on each outbound aircraft.
Tower must advise departures to squawk 2000 and contact San Francisco Radio on the appropriate frequency.

Do you reckon it'd be possible to include a phraseology example here and in the arrivals section?

Definitely can write something up, although aiming to keep it as close to the Oakland SOP as possible for future updates.

Is it worth referencing the Oakland DOC?

Yeah I suppose so, if that's our reference source for any info

Yeah just to give some context to what we're prescribing I guess

### Arrivals

Oakland Oceanic must forward arrival information at least 30 minutes prior to the airport estimate.
Tower must call Oakland Oceanic with the arrival time of each inbound aircraft.
