Narrative:

Lck super high consists of 2 fpa's and it overlies 2 high sectors. Ape high on the north and uni hi on the south. When lck is closed; the north fpa is combined with ape and the south fpa is combined with uni. Because lck is distributed to 2 different sectors; the coordination line is left alone and not forwarded to either sector. As a controller working airspace adjacent to lck during this confign; I find the practice of not having the coordination line for the lck sector available as an unsafe situation that should be corrected.

Title: ZID CTLR EXPRESSED CONCERN REGARDING THE LACK OF A COM LANDLINE WHEN POSITIONS OF OPERATION ARE COMBINED.

Narrative: LCK SUPER HIGH CONSISTS OF 2 FPA'S AND IT OVERLIES 2 HIGH SECTORS. APE HIGH ON THE N AND UNI HI ON THE S. WHEN LCK IS CLOSED; THE N FPA IS COMBINED WITH APE AND THE S FPA IS COMBINED WITH UNI. BECAUSE LCK IS DISTRIBUTED TO 2 DIFFERENT SECTORS; THE COORD LINE IS LEFT ALONE AND NOT FORWARDED TO EITHER SECTOR. AS A CTLR WORKING AIRSPACE ADJACENT TO LCK DURING THIS CONFIGN; I FIND THE PRACTICE OF NOT HAVING THE COORD LINE FOR THE LCK SECTOR AVAILABLE AS AN UNSAFE SIT THAT SHOULD BE CORRECTED.
