Braking action advisories must be issued when braking action is reported as less than which value?

Explanation:
Braking action advisories are issued whenever braking action falls below what is considered normal. On the standard scale, GOOD means normal braking capability. If pilots report braking action as FAIR or POOR, that is below GOOD, so ATC issues an advisory to warn pilots to adjust speed, braking technique, and landing/distances accordingly. If braking action is GOOD, there’s no advisory because braking performance is adequate. Unknown braking action isn’t a reported value to base an advisory on, so it doesn’t trigger the advisory threshold.
