v

• LC manages Common Storage warehouses for the humanitarian community in 9 hubs. • Mobile Storage Unit Loans: The Logistics Cluster provides MSUs in deep-field locations for the strategic prepositioning of relief items based on the needs of requesting organisations, as part of advance preparedness measures.

→ Priority is given to organisations willing to manage MSUs as common storage facilities versus individual use especially in the Inter-Cluster Working Group(ICWG) prioritised areas for interventions

Air Transport

v • Air Transport is Last Resort • Focus of Air Operations: • ICWG Priorities (unless reachable by road/river) • Rapid Missions • Locations unreachable by road/river • Fleet: • Fixed wing: Juba (No helis based in Juba!) • Helis: Bor, Rumbek • Efficiencies in Air Ops • LC determines dispatch location • Central Unity: Rumbek • Jonglei & Upper Nile: Bor or Juba, depending on airstrip • Fixed-wing more efficient than helis • Airstrip Rehabilitation for fixed-wing • LC does NOT fly to: Bentiu, Malakal, Wau
