Happy nav cycle day ZOA!

Today we are rolling out a completely revamped SOP for ZAK with many changes, mainly surrounding the use of ADS-C. The changelog is down below. Additionally, an update to CPS-001 has been pushed out, the primary change in this is the addition of a Disciplinary policy and procedure. The purpose of this is to provide a clear, consistent, and fair way to deal with any issues that may arise.  Fortunately we do not have very many things come up here, so hopefully we will not have to put it to use very often. Other changes in CPS-001 are mainly typo corrections, clarifying language, etc.
