Kunsan Air Base, Republic of Korea --  O’Malley’s Dining Facility remains closed for renovations and is projected to open back up on Nov. 6, 2016.

The renovations are being made to update equipment, revamp various areas of the facility and to ultimately improve the quality of life for airmen.

“Construction is on schedule and there haven't been any problems with the progress” said Master Sgt. Peter Maselli, 8th Force Support Squadron food service section chief.

To help support airmen with the closure, Maselli said midnight meals will be moved from O’Malley’s Dining Facility to the Delta Pad Dining Facility, located near the flightline, from Sunday through Thursday 11 p.m.-1 a.m.

Airmen living in dorms 1401, 1406, 1418 and 1431 will be receiving BAS II because those buildings do not have kitchen facilities; they will receive $736.58 monthly while O’Malley’s Dining Facility is closed. All other airmen in dorms will receive standard BAS of $368.29 because they do have kitchen facilities. Also, for those airmen receiving BAS II, they will be entitled to full-rate Cost of Living Allowance COLA during the closure.

Rates for COLA can be obtained at http://www.defensetravel.dod.mil/site/colaCalc.cfm.
