Visual representation
This was really great news to me as someone interested in applying with NJA once I meet their mins. I compiled a map here with pins at all the airports on the above list, to help anyone else who may be unfamiliar with all the codes or may just want a better visual representation.

Hopefully it works, I've never used this tool before. Apologies for the new account, I haven't had a reason to post anything until now.

Just curious, but is FMN (Farmington NM) really considered a HBA ? There hasn’t been any airline service there since 2016-17 when Great Lakes pulled up and then went out of business.

I'll try to keep the map linked below updated with regards to bases being open, waivered, etc.

Bases only close when there isn't enough airline service to meet the requirements to be a base. If an airport loses some service to go below the threshold, sometimes they can be a waivered airport where you can use it, but you have no after midnight protections. Other times the airport gets closed for a while and then gets enough service to come back to a home base status. If your base looses too much service, you will have to change bases, but you can go back if it reopens.
