You have zero requirement to be contactable on any portion of a training day, including velvet.
I’ve ops tested this for a 30-hour rest (failed) attempted notification. They even tried to tell me later I was available before be velvet was even over, lol. Nope, and immediately put into rest.
Just like CQ, its a solid strategy.
