Caution on iPhone App for Thrift Savings Plan TSP.gov has announced that a Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) iPhone application offered by the Apple App store is not sanctioned by the TSP program and should not be used. This application could pose a security risk to your TSP account because it asks for account login information. Personnel are strongly advised to avoid installing this application on any of your personal or government mobile devices. For more information, visit www.tsp.gov/whatsnew/plan/planNews.shtml#iPhoneApp. Contact your command Information Technology office if you have further questions. Trash Buildup at Support Site There is a current buildup of trash at Support Site that was caused by the unexpected loss of trash collection service last week. Local officials are working to resume service as soon as possible. In the interim, Support Site residents are requested to neatly place trash items within the perimeter of the designated trash areas where dumpsters are full. Recyclables such as cardboard, paper, plastic, metal and glass must be discarded at the two main residential recycling points in North Park and South Park. Residents should also arrange for the free pick up of unwanted bulk items (e.g., couches, tables, mattresses, unwanted TVs, etc.) by calling the Housing Trouble Desk at DSN: 629-4285/6 or 081811-4285/6.
