Another Wake Turbulence Question

We do Airport Adivsory for MIV (120 miles away). My question is....
Would you (should I) issue a caution wake turb statement to a light single
that is dep/arr behind a G4 or similar medium weight class jet. I asked our
QA folks and got silence on a telcon. Any ref's would be helpfull too.

I'm not sure if your looking for a reference that would support you NOT having to issue it. But, if your looking for a reason to issue it then here it is. It's a catch all and you can't go wrong by issuing it.

b. Issue cautionary information to any aircraft if in your opinion, wake turbulence may have an adverse effect on it. When traffic is known to be a heavy aircraft, include the word heavy in the description.
