FOREWORD
The Commander, Naval Facilities Engineering Command, has prepared this publication.
The policies set forth herein implement the requirements of the Chief of Naval Operations
as prescribed in the DoD 4500.36-R applicable to motor vehicle management. These
policies and procedures are applicable for all personnel concerned with the management
of transportation equipment throughout the Navy. Clients are encouraged to closely
review the changes as the publication has undergone extensive review. A Change
Synopsis is provided for information and reflects the majority of the pertinent changes that
have been made.
General and detailed procedures for the administration, operation, and maintenance of
transportation equipment are covered. These areas include administration, procurement,
rental, charter, assignment, loan, utilization, registration and technical record control,
disposition, and operational procedures for automotive, construction, and railroad
equipment. Procedures are also included for maintenance planning, scheduling,
maintenance control, material support, vehicle and equipment modification, painting,
identification and markings, protective coatings, and for selection and application of fuels
and lubricants.
Of particular interest, note that this edition addresses conversion of the Alpha Code A-N
vehicles to the General Services Administration and the sell of non-excess Civil
Engineering Support Equipment at Naval Working Capital Funded activities. The Driver’s
license section has been thoroughly revised. The Navy Driver’s Handbook will not be re-
issued. In the future, activities should refer to state guidelines and manufacturer’s
guidelines for operating vehicles.
This manual supersedes NAVFA P-300 of May 1997 and is certified as an official
publication of the Naval Facilities Engineering Command and has been reviewed and
approved.

U.S. Code or principal diplomatic and consular officials.
a. Exemptions
1-9
1.12.2 Operation of Motor Vehicles by Personnel on Official Travel (TDY/TAD).
Civilian and military personnel while in an official travel status (TDY/TAD) can operate
government owned or leased vehicles for official business without an OF-346 provided
they possess a valid state license for the type and class of vehicle they are to operate
and their travel orders authorize the use of a vehicle. All travelers are reminded that
government owned or commercial lease/rental vehicles are to be used for "Official
Business" only. The Joint Travel Regulations (JTR) (Volume 2, Chapter 2, paragraph
C2050 and C2102) allow the following:
Note: A government-contract rental automobile is the first resource for short-term rental of an
automobile by an employee on TDY travel. A Government-furnished automobile is the first
resource when an automobile is required for official travel performed locally or within commuting
distance of an employee’s designated post of duty. See JTR , Volume 2, Chapter 2, paragraph
2001 for additional guidance.
1.12.3 Deployed Forces. The JFTR (Volume 1) states that “When scheduled
government bus service operated by host activity or public bus service is not available
or its use is impractical, deployed personnel may use vehicles to attend to uniform
needs, to obtain suitable meals, to obtain hair cuts, and for transportation to similar
places required for the sustenance, comfort, and health of deployed personnel.”
1.13.3 In areas outside of the United States, Unified Combatant Commanders may, in
accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2637, provide government transportation for certain
members of the Uniformed Services, other Federal employees, and the dependents of
such employees, provided that local transportation is unsafe or unavailable for whatever
reason (e.g., terrorist activity, strikes, natural disasters, etc.)
1-10
b. If the conditions for the authorization persist, the Unified Commanders may
extend the authorization for vehicle use for additional specific time periods.
c. All approvals and the reasons for such authorization shall be in writing.
d. The approving commander shall ensure that records are maintained on the
transportation provided under this authority.
“Temporary duty travel by publicly owned conveyance (POC) may be authorized as well
as approved from home or domicile to a place of temporary assignment and return
without requiring the employee to report first to his headquarters or regular place of
duty. In authorizing such travel, the travel-directing official considers the interests of the
Government with regard to mission requirements, relative expense, and practicability.”
Paragraph 2001 states “travel of an employee is by the most expeditious means of
transportation practicable and is commensurate with the nature and purpose of the
duties involved. The official directing travel is responsible for the mode of transportation
selected.”
1-11
1.13.8 Group H-T-W Transportation. Group H-T-W transportation services also do
not come under the H-T-W reporting requirements of U.S. Code 31, Section 1344 (as
amended by PL 99-550). This service is discussed in Chapter 3.
1.14 Illegal Use Penalty. Penalties for willfully using, or authorizing the use of a
Government-owned or leased motor vehicle, for other than official purposes, are
stipulated in U.S. Code 31, Section 1349. In extreme cases, U.S. Code 18, Section
641 may apply. U.S. Code 31, Section 1349 (b), Adverse personnel actions, (Public
Law 97-258, Sep 13, 1982) states: "An officer or employee who willfully uses or
authorizes the use of a passenger motor vehicle or aircraft owned or leased by the
United States Government (except for an official purpose authorized by Section 1344 of
this title) or otherwise violates Section 1344 shall be suspended without pay by the
head of the agency. The officer or employee shall be suspended for at least one
month, and when circumstances warrant, for a longer period or summarily removed
from office." ("Passenger motor vehicle", relative to illegal use, has been interpreted to
mean all types of automotive vehicles.)
1-12
CHAPTER 2. ADMINISTRATION
2.1 Assignment.
2-1
Note: Personnel authorized Class A assignments shall not use these vehicles for other than the
actual performance of official duties. Class A assignments neither provide nor change vehicle
inventory objectives, are not authorizations for "home to work" unless specifically authorized, and
are not to be construed as prestige assignments nor as waivers of marking and identification
requirements established by law. With the exception of Class IV and Executive vehicles, Class A
assignments must be individually. Requests for these assignments shall be forwarded to CNO for
approval, via the command chain and the responsible TEMC with a copy to NAVFAC (Code PWT).
2-2
a face-to-face dialogue with a set number of customers each month rather than trying to
review all customers in a three or four day time frame. Once accomplished, the Public
Works Officer or designated representative shall approve the Class B assignments.
Assignments on a Class B basis shall not be made if it is practical to use pool vehicles.
c. Class C - Pool Vehicles. All DoD motor vehicles not designated as Class A
or Class B assignments shall be pooled for performance of services on an on-call basis.
Maximum pooling of vehicles at all levels within a naval activity is to be emphasized.
The Transportation Director shall review Class C pool requirements annually and
ensure an economic mix of vehicles is maintained for mission support.
(1) Truck size and type shall correspond to type of work being done.
2-3
(2) As practicable, an assigned truck shall be required for a minimum
operation of 4 hours a day.
(3) The criteria stated in 2.1.2 for Class B and Class C vehicle
assignments apply to the assignment of general-use trucks. Information on equipment
is provided in the Construction Automotive and Specialized Equipment Management
Information System (CASEMIS) descriptive reference table.
d. Special Use Vehicles. The general-use truck criteria does not apply to
trucks with special mounted equipment, such as lubricating equipment, welding
machines, compressors, and refrigerating units. Requirements for special use vehicles
shall be based on activity needs for field services. Trailer-mounted rather than
truck-mounted equipment shall be used wherever feasible.
2.1.4 Assignment to Ships and Afloat Commands. The designated shore activity
is tasked to provide transportation support to ships and afloat commands on a priority
basis. Vehicular support for ships and afloat commands is provided from class C pools
administered by the designated shore activity, or by hire arrangements authorized and
funded by the Commander, Atlantic Fleet and the Commander, Pacific Fleet.
CINCLANTFLTINST 11240.3 and CINCPACFLTINST 11200.3, provide guidance and
direction regarding automotive vehicles and equipment inventory objectives for ships
and afloat commands in the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean areas, respectively.
2-4
a. Shore Activities Serving In-port Fleet Units
(4) Transportation equipment for ships, afloat, and shore activities shall
be replaced at the discretion of the Transportation Manager.
(5) Vehicles assigned to Class C pools for Fleet support shall be used for
daily requirements of the shore activity, provided Fleet vehicle requirements are fulfilled.
(6) Ships in the Reserve Fleet, being reactivated, shall obtain vehicle
support from the designated support activity at the berthing area.
2.1.5 Assignment to the NCF, NCTCs and SOUs. Organic allowances are
designed to support a unit’s mission as defined by that unit’s ROC and POE. An
organic equipment allowance enables a unit or activity to carry out most operational
requirements. Organic allowances are not designed to meet every operational
requirement.
2-5
a. Other Navy and U.S. Military Activities. Only activity authorization is
required for the temporary loan of transportation equipment to other Navy and U.S.
military activities when such action is the most economic, efficient, in the best interest of
the government and in the immediate vicinity of the loaner. In all other instances,
TEMC approval is required.
2.1.7 Assignment of Courtesy Vehicles. Activities shall not accept the use of
courtesy vehicles (provided free of charge) from any private vendor. The vehicle
transportation requirements of the Navy are to be satisfied by Navy-owned or
authorized hired assets only.
2-6
2.1.9 Assignment to Commissaries, Exchanges, and Messes Ashore. The
assignment of vehicles to commissary stores, Navy exchanges, messes, and similar
Morale, Welfare and Recreation functions ashore shall be based on the premise that
vehicles are not to be assigned for the exclusive use of any division of an activity
(special use vehicles excepted) unless the volume of work performed by the vehicle is
sufficient to make the assignment economically justifiable. Navy-owned vehicles
procured with appropriated funds may be assigned to these activities if available and
the circumstances justify. The general policy of vehicle assignments to commissaries,
exchanges, and messes ashore is shown in Figure 2-1. Commissary store vehicles are
procured with Commissary Store Reserve Funds as required to meet the needs of
specific store activities. The funds used to support the initial procurement cost,
maintenance, and operation of commissary store vehicles are expended from the Navy
Stock Fund.
2.2.1 General Provisions For IOs. IOs represent the most efficient mix of
Equipment Code quantities needed to perform the activity’s mission as agreed to by the
TEMC and activity. IOs shall not include quantities for maintenance float, pipeline, or
depot stocks. To avoid duplication of IOs, the Public Works Center (PWC) or Public
Works Department (PWD) shall be assigned the IO when Class B service is provided to
a tenant or smaller activity.

drivers when provided), which are assigned to the above types of activities, shall be charged to the
activities in accordance with the accounting procedures under which the owning activity is
operating, as prescribed in the FMB Manual.
USN Registration. All vehicles owned by the above activities, or acquired by them for excess
personal property listings of the Military Services or any agency of the U.S. Government shall be
identified by USN registration numbers in the 4XXXX series. Paragraph 2.10.3 prescribes
procedures for requesting the assignment of USN registration numbers for nonappropriated fund
vehicles.
Figure 2-1.

a. Applicable. These procedures are applicable to all Navy Shore Activities,
NWCF and non-NWCF that hold approved CESE IOs and to unified commands whose
headquarters receive Navy support.
b. Not Applicable. These procedures are not applicable to ships and afloat
commands, fleet commanders having headquarters and support activities ashore,
shore activities receiving CESE support from a Public Works Department/Center,
Marine Corps Air Stations, deploying Marine Air units, or the Naval Construction Force.
Ship and afloat commands derive transportation equipment support from the shore
activity designated as their homeport. It is the responsibility of the homeport shore
activity to provide IOs for ships and afloat commands in accordance with applicable
CINCPACFLT/CINCLANTFLT instructions relating to the number of vehicles
authorized.
2.2.2 Procedures For IOs. The TEMC shall review activity transportation equipment
IOs for shore activities on a continuing basis and shall also review and validate IOs
during management assistance visits. As changes in mission, new functions, and/or
functional transfers occur, the activity IO shall be revised. The IOs shall be based on
the minimum number of units required to accomplish the activity's mission.
b. Fire Fighting IOs. Requests for Fire fighting IOs shall be sent to the TEMC
via the Director of Navy Fire and Emergency Services for review and approval, with
copies to the Regional Commander and the major claimant.
2-9
2.2.3 COMNAVFACENGCOM IO Review/Approval. COMNAVFACENGCOM shall
use the CASEMIS summation of activity IOs for higher level reporting requirements.
2-10
2.3 Budgeting
2.3.2 Expense. Claimants are responsible for budgeting operation and maintenance
costs of transportation equipment.
2.4.1 Prior Approval for Procurement. Except for NWCF activities, CESE shall not
be procured or otherwise acquired for Navy ownership by any activity, office or
command without prior approval of COMNAVFACENGCOM. The purchase of
passenger-carrying vehicles (PCVs) (sedans, station wagons, buses, ambulances,
carryall vans, and SUVs) for use by the Government is controlled by law and shall only
be purchased or procured with OPN funds administered by NAVFACENGCOM. The
restriction on procurement of PCVs also applies to NWCF customers. Annually,
Congress (through appropriation acts) specifically authorizes the quantity of passenger-
carrying vehicles to be acquired, and establishes a maximum unit cost for sedans and
station wagons. See paragraph 2.3.1 and 2.8.4 for guidance on NWCF procurement.
2-11
2.4.2 Transfers of Equipment by Shore Activities. All equipment transfers shall be
authorized and coordinated by the responsible TEMC.
(1) Inspect and operationally test the equipment. Repair and service
the equipment as required. Service the equipment. Ensure that proper quantity of
antifreeze is added, as applicable, to prevent freezing enroute. Prepare an Equipment
Repair Order (ERO), described in Chapter 4 and list all required repairs not completed.
File the ERO in the appropriate Equipment History Jacket so that the ultimate receiver
shall have basic information about the vehicle's condition.
(3) Close all windows and doors. Protect windows and windshields
with plywood, masonite, or similar material. All exhausts, intakes, hydraulic hoses, and
other openings must be sealed by capping, taping, or other means to prevent entry of
water and dirt.
(5) Ship all collateral equipage with the equipment, and include the
spare tire and rim, unless otherwise directed. Remove and box all items subject to
pilferage such as mirrors, windshield wipers, lighters, tools, jacks, and all disassembled
components. Mark the box with the USN number and secure to the equipment in a
protected location so the box shall not interfere with towing, driving, or lifting the
equipment.
2-12
from, but at the same time as, the non-rolling stock. These components are usually
shipped loose unless handling conditions dictate otherwise. Components may then be
secured to pallets or a skid-type base. Boxes, loose components, and palletized or
skid-type loads shall be marked with the USN number of the basic equipment.
(7) Remove items or parts that have low ground clearance such as
spray bars and long extensions, and secure to the upper portion of the vehicle.
(9) Drain and blow dry water tanks, pumps, piping, and other
components that contain water to prevent freezing damage en route. Cover openings
to prevent entrance of water.
(4) Provide consignee with all shipping data, including USN numbers,
number of items in shipment, name of ship, scheduled departure date, and estimated
time of arrival at destination. Identify equipment attachments by NAVFACENGCOM
identification number (Appendix D) and indicate the USN/USNG number to which it is
assigned. Attachments shipped separately from its USN number shall be shipped
under a separate Transportation Control Number (TCN) for accountability.
(6) After the item is shipped, the allowance holder must update
CASEMIS in accordance with paragraph 2.12.7.
(7) Check CSC recertification date before shipping USNG numbered
ISO containers. See Appendix D.
2-13
c. Shipment Under Combat Conditions. Additional guidelines for shipping
equipment under combat conditions are provided in the NCF Tactical Embarkation
Manual , COMTHIRDNCB/COMSECONDNCB Instruction 3120.1 series.
2.5 Foreign Purchases. The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) permits foreign
purchases under specific conditions such as unreasonable cost for domestic
procurement and non-availability within the United States. Detailed procedures are
contained in the FAR under Foreign Purchases. Additional restrictions may be
contained in specific Congressional authorization and/or appropriation acts. When
required, data for justification and approval (J&A) shall also be developed, and a J&A
request forwarded to the applicable Command. LANTDIV coordinates procurement in
Europe and PACDIV coordinates procurement in the Pacific Region. DoD
implementation and supplementation of the FAR is issued in the Defense Federal
Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) under authorization and subject to the
authority, direction, and control of the Secretary of Defense.
2.6 Acquisition of Fuel Efficient Vehicles. Current laws and regulations require
compliance in the fuel-efficient acquisition (purchase or hire) and reporting of
passenger automobiles (sedans and station wagons) and light trucks with the exception
of alternative fueled vehicles as detailed in section 3-4 of the DoD Regulation
4500.36-R. Procurement of sedans and station wagons is limited to compact or
subcompact types except as specifically authorized by DoD 4500.36-R sections 3-1 and
3-4.
2-14
2.7.3 Repair and/or Replacement Determinations For Construction, Railway,
Weight Handling and Other Transportation Equipment (Alpha Code O through Z).
Transportation Managers shall evaluate all options prior to making extensive repairs
and select the alternative that shall benefit the activity over the long-term. TEMC
personnel should be consulted to assist in evaluating the various repair or replacement
alternatives. See Appendix F for a more extensive discussion on replacement and
repair criteria.
a. Direct Labor. Direct labor is all labor, civilian or military, which can be
specifically identified to the repair job.
(2) Direct labor costs should on based on information obtained from flat
rate manuals, shall work performed, or individual experience, whichever is applicable.
b. Labor Rates for Civilian Employees. Cost of civilian labor shall be based
on the labor rate for the work center performing the work, or where applicable, the labor
rate stated within the commercial transportation contract.
(1) When costs of civilian labor are determined on the basis of annual
salaries, these costs shall include the factor for Government-contributed benefits.
(2) When costs of civilian labor are determined on the basis of direct
labor hours (days, etc.) applied, these costs shall be computed by adding the factor for
Government-contributed benefits to the gross pay, as shown in current pay tables.
c. Labor Rates for Military Personnel. Labor rates for military personnel shall
be the average military wage rate for the work center performing the work, based on
standard rates published in the applicable portion of the FMB.
d. Direct Materials
(1) Includes all materials directly applied and identifiable to the particular
equipment undergoing repair.
2-15
(3) Components used in the repair process shall be expensed at the
exchange rate, representing the standard inventory price less credit for return of
repairable components. The exchange price can be established as a percentage of the
standard inventory price as long as it reflects the estimated cost of repair.
e. Indirect Expenses
(1) The estimate should include indirect expenses associated with the
repair process and should be determined by applying the indirect expense rate (shown
as dollar cost per direct labor man-hour) to the estimated direct labor man-hours.
(2) The indirect or overhead costs included in the indirect expense rate
shall include: manufacturing or production expense (indirect cost incurred within or
identifiable to the maintenance shop or organization performing the repair work,
although not identifiable to particular jobs); and, general and administrative
expenses/costs incurred in general management or supervision which are measurable
costs chargeable to maintenance activities.
f. Other Charges
(1) Maintenance Expense Items. Such items as tires, tubes, tire chains,
tracks, batteries, and antifreeze, etc., are not to be included as a cost in the repair
estimate except where replacement is the result of accident damage.
2-16
the cost repair estimate. Individual estimates of cost to overhaul such items shall be
made as required.
2.8 Requirements
For NCF and SOU units, the initial CESE allowance review and update is accomplished
by a Biennial Allowance and Requirement Review (BARR). The BARR is used to
recommend changes to a Command’s CESE allowance and to indicate which vehicles
require replacement. Biennially, each allowance holder or designated component
organization prepares and submits a BARR in accordance with NAVFACINST
11200.35, Naval Construction Force Biennial Allowance and Requirement Review.
Requests for allowance increases must be accompanied by complete justification
based upon mission change and operational procedures and requirements changes
(see Appendix C).
Note: P-1 line 31 is not normally funded but carries a P-1 line number for administrative purposes.
2-17
2.8.3 OPN Requirements Procedures. In order to prepare for the Navy budget
submission, a requirements review shall be conducted on a biennial basis for CESE
funded in the Other Procurement, Navy CESE Budget Activity 5. These procedures are
applicable to non-NWCF activities and for passenger-carrying equipment only for
NWCF activities. Requirements established during the review should fall within
approved funding levels and be procured from the two budget year funds. The first
budget year is the fiscal year two years following the submission year, e.g., the first
budget year for submission in FY 01 is FY 03. Funding constraints preclude the
replacement of all equipment items that exceed life expectancy and require activities to
execute an effective operation and maintenance program to extend the useful life of
equipment to the maximum. To make the best use of the limited funding, the
requirements identification process must emphasize selection of the highest priority
equipment items. A projected funding level should be developed for each activity to be
used for conducting the requirements review. Use of a projected funding amount
eliminates the need to prioritize all eligible items and instead emphasis can be placed
on selecting the highest priority requirements. Each activity should develop a
requirements listing that can be funded within the projected funding amount. The
TEMCs should forward a requirements package and any amplifying instructions to
activities under their cognizance each review year. The following data should be
provided to each activity or be available through direct access to CASEMIS:
a. Activity Review and Submission. Activities shall conduct the review and
submit requirements by letter or through direct access to CASEMIS. Requirements
data shall be submitted only for equipment that falls within the projected funding level.
2-18
The 6-digit equipment code must be specified for each requested requirement. The
requirements are to be integrated into a single priority sequence for all P-1 lines for both
procurement years. Priority numbers should begin with "1" through the total number of
equipment requirements submitted and each number should be used only once.
Priority "1" shall represent the most urgent requirement, priority "2" the next most
urgent, etc. To the extent possible within the constraints of budget guidance and
availability of funding, equipment procured shall be in accordance with the needs and
priorities identified by the activity. Program budget reductions are implemented by
deleting, on an equitable basis, the lowest priority items unless a budget cut is aimed at
a P-1 line specifically. In that case, the lowest priorities within that P-1 line are reduced.
Therefore, activity established priorities should represent the relative importance of the
requirements to ensure that the highest priorities are funded. While the selection of
requirements shall be based on a combination of mission requirements, priority of
assignment, equipment condition and other factors, the following criteria apply:
(1) Care should be taken to ensure that the requested requirements are
consistent with the authorized IO. It is assumed that all equipment on hand fills an
authorized IO or is excess to activity needs. Excess equipment (equipment over IO)
shall not be replaced.
(2) The CESE budget is prepared for the review cycle 15 months prior to
the budget year. Therefore, care must be taken to realistically evaluate activity needs
in the long term. Application of the replacement criteria must consider the timing of the
budget/procurement cycle. As a practical matter, there is only one annual procurement
cycle after approval of the budget and release of appropriations. Input from the
administration, operation, and maintenance branches of the transportation division as
well as prior planning should eliminate, or keep to a minimum, the need for any
adjustment during the procurement cycle.
2-19
sheets does not constitute a justification for sole source procurement. Consequently, if
specific components are annotated on these forms, they must not be so selective as to
limit competition. These forms are available on the TEMC website.
2-20
(3) Established policy shall be to request equipment replacements from
the standard family of equipment items listed in the CASEMIS Descriptive Reference
Table. When requesting equipment items ending in zero (“00”), procedures set forth in
paragraph 2.8.3.a (4) apply.
2-21
2.9 Lease/Rental of Civil Engineering Support Equipment
2.9.1 Authority. General guidance for obtaining CESE via rental or lease is contained
in the DoD 4500.36R; CESE may be rented or leased, via formal agreement, from
commercial sources, the General Service Administration (GSA) government-wide
indefinite quantity lease, and the Navy’s centralized leasing contracts.
2.9.2 Classification, Policy and Procedures. Methods of obtaining CESE outside the
procurement system are classified as charter, rental or lease; leases are further
classified as operating or capital leases. These classifications do not include
arrangements for vehicles made by personnel in an official travel or temporary duty
status.
c. NCF units shall obtain Brigade Equipment Office approval prior to entering
into a rental agreement.
2-22
d. COMNAVFACENGCOM approval is required prior to rental of fire fighting
equipment.
f. The activity commanding officer may authorize the solicitation, and Form
DD 1155 should be used as the contract document.
g. The class of vehicle rented to support the visit of a DoD official can be the
same as that normally authorized that official. The class of vehicle rented in support of
non-DoD officials, including those from foreign countries, shall be the same as that
normally authorized a DoD official of comparable rank or position.
2.9.5 Leases. The various types of leases are noted below. The terms “Lease
Purchase” and “Lease to Ownership” are no longer recognized within the DoD/DoN.
2-23
b. General Lease Provisions
(1) Per the NAVFAC P-68 Contracting Manual, lease of motor vehicles
and equipment utilizes NAVFAC contracts, not NAVSUP supply type contracts.
(6) Requests for lease IOs or changes to existing lease IOs shall be
submitted in accordance with paragraph 2.2.2 in the same manner as for
Navy-owned vehicles. Increases in lease IOs must include a statement from the
requiring activity that funding is available to cover the increased lease cost.
2-24
wagons. This does not prohibit contractors from providing optional equipment
not required by the specification in order to increase resale value.
(15) Invitations for bids should not be limited to current year production
models unless overall economy is not affected.
2-25
(17) All federal agencies will report leasing information using the
Federal Automotive Statistical Tool (FAST). This is a data collection tool
developed as a result of two federal mandates for fleet data collection: Federal
Management Regulation (FMR) 102-34 and Executive Order (EO) 13149. See
chapter 4 of this manual for specific guidance regarding data submission.
c. Operating Leases.
(2) TEMC approved lease authority is valid for the term of the lease
contract. Where applicable, DFAR requirements such as 207.470, pertaining to
lease terms of 18 months or more, must be met unless an approval has been
granted to do otherwise. This stipulation does not apply to GSA-owned vehicles
leased by the Navy, or to vehicles used by the officials listed in paragraphs 3.1.c
and 3.1.d of the DoD 4500.36-R.
(3) Activities are to submit requests for all operating leases to the
responsible TEMC for approval; the request shall include a full justification
supporting the request. As a minimum, the justification will include cost data that
supports leasing in lieu of a Navy-owned asset, as well as the following
information:
• Name and location of the activity requiring vehicle support and number
of vehicles required, by type.
• Special requirements such as unmarked, heavy-duty suspension,
security configuration, etc.).
• Intended use.
• Vehicle support through GSA FLEET, if applicable. Include Billing
Office Address Code (BOAC). (If the activity does not already have a
BOAC number assigned, a number may be requested from your local
GSA region.)
• Length of anticipated use and projected annual mileage.
• Name and telephone number, commercial and Defense Switched
Network (DSN) of the contact at the activity.
(4) TEMCs will not approve operating lease requests without adequate
written justification and an approved IO for the equipment code requested. If the
requested operating leases will cause on-hand assets to exceed the approved
IO, the excess units must be in the process of being sent to disposal, or an
interim IO increase must be approved by the TEMC. The TEMC should also
review similar assets at other nearby activities for possible redistribution of
usable vehicles.
2-26
(5) When leasing from a commercial source, activities should first
consider leasing automobiles and light trucks from the centralized open-end
leases, which the Navy negotiates annually with major commercial leasing
companies. Vehicles may be obtained from the indefinite quantity contracts
using DD Form 1155. Vehicles can be leased off these contracts without further
competition.
d. Capital Leases.
(1) Due to OPN funding constraints, capital leases are only authorized
for non-passenger carrying vehicles for NWCF activities. Capital leases are
prohibited for appropriated fund activities and for passenger carrying vehicles at
NWCF activities.
(2) With prior TEMC approval, NWCF activities may execute capital
leases for non-passenger carrying CESE. When a capital lease is desired, the
NWCF activity should specify this in the lease request submitted to the TEMC.
The lease request should include the type of lease agreement, equipment
code/quantities, estimated lease cost, and the month/year the purchase option
may be exercised. The solicitation/lease agreement should be structured so that
the purchase option reflects a reasonable fair market value of the item at the
time it is to be exercised.
2-27
2.9.6 Issues Applicable To Charter, Rental Or Lease Agreements:
(a) Charter, rental and lease agreements should clearly assign responsibility
to either the Navy or to the lessor for meeting requirements stipulated in the contract for
equipment operation, inspection, test, maintenance and repairs.
(b) Equipment rates should include all costs of loading and unloading the
equipment at the contractor's plant, including dismantling and assembling charges as
necessary. If the Government is able to provide the equipment operator and the
contractor is willing to rent the equipment without the operator, this should be clearly
indicated. If the equipment is rented with operator (i.e., charter), the regular hourly
wage rate of the operator and the overtime rate should be indicated.
(c) Moving costs may be applicable in the event the contractor delivers the
equipment to the job site. The moving costs should be shown as the cost per move
plus mileage. For example, the cost of a move for a small crawler tractor to a
Government job site might be $45 per move plus 80 cents per mile of the distance one
way.
(d) The Navy should reserve the right to terminate contracts upon due notice
if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Government. The Navy is responsible
upon termination to return the equipment in as good condition as when delivered, less
normal wear and tear. The Navy should not be responsible or obligated to pay for any
damages resulting from the negligence of the contractor or employees of the contractor.
(e) Equipment agreements shall state that equipment must comply with all
applicable ASME/ANSI standards and OSHA Regulations, for example, CFR 29;
activity-specific regulations and requirements pertaining to safety and operation of
equipment on Government property should also be included in the agreement.
Agreements involving weight handling equipment shall require compliance with
NAVFAC P-307 requirements. The Contractor shall be required to submit a certificate
of compliance stating the equipment provided under the agreement meets all
requirements stipulated in the agreement; the Contractor’s certification statement
should specifically state that all equipment provided meets applicable OSHA/ANSI
regulations.
(f) Only trained and properly authorized and licensed personnel shall operate
charter, rental or leased equipment.
(g) Contracts should require the contractor to ensure that equipment provided
to the Government is free from defects and in good, dependable, and safe operating
condition. The Government should have the option to inspect the equipment for
defects prior to entering into an agreement with the contractor.
(h) Equipment agreements must stipulate equipment testing each day prior to
use to determine if all controls are in safe working condition. If equipment is not
2-28
in safe working condition, it shall not be operated until properly repaired, as
stated in the agreement.
(l) The contract should specify that the Government retains the right to
terminate the contract should the contractor fail to make the necessary repairs to
maintain or restore the equipment to good operating condition, and that the
Government shall arrange (with the contractor) to have the equipment returned to the
point of origin.
(m) See Chapter 3, paragraph 3.9 and Chapter 4, paragraph 4-1.11 of this
publication for information on operator requirements for licensing, operations and
maintenance of construction and specialized equipment; these requirements, including
requirements for development of Standard Operating Procedures, apply to rented and
leased equipment. (Special Note: OSHA relocated requirements pertaining to aerial lift
devices to 29 CFR 1926.453; users of aerial lift devices must comply with OSHA
guidelines.)

COMNAVFACENGCOM. United States Navy numbers are assigned to all CESE and
selected items of CEEI. USN numbers are assigned by NFELC Port Hueneme in
accordance with Figure 2-3 of this publication. Some examples of CEEI that are
registered in CASEMIS by USN number by the NCF include, but are not limited to:
Refrigerated Containers, Shower Bath Units, Water Purification Units and SIXCON Pump
Units. United States Navy General (USNG) (cargo container) number identifies
International Safety Organization (ISO) container equipment to general type found in
Appendix (E), Table E-1.

If eleven divides evenly into the product the check digit equals "0" (zero). If there is a
remainder after dividing by eleven, then the check digit equals the remainder (with the
exception of a remainder of 10).
NOTE: In order to avoid the duplication that results from the check digit value of zero being
assigned as a remainder of both 10 and 0, the serial numbers that result in remainders of 10 have not
been assigned. This accounts for the gaps in serial number assignments for the ICCNs.

b. Registration Number Assignment and Reporting of Unregistered CESE.
When an activity receives an item of transportation equipment that is not identified by a
permanent U.S. Navy registration number but which requires one, a request for a
registration number should be made immediately. The custodian of the item received
shall initiate a request to the responsible TEMC. The TEMC shall coordinate U.S. Navy
registration number assignment with NFELC Port Hueneme and provide the
identification number back to the activity. Upon assignment of the registration number,
activities with direct access to CASEMIS shall enter the acquisition data elements.
Activities without direct access to CASEMIS shall fax or mail the acquisition data
elements to the responsible TEMC using the website-provided load sheet or a client-
developed format. The custodian of the equipment shall affix the assigned U.S. Navy
registration number on the unit in accordance with Appendix J. For SOUs, a DD 1342,
or electronically prepared facsimile of the same, shall be prepared for each unit
received and forwarded to NFELC Port Hueneme.
2.10.2 Special Vehicle Registration in the National Capital Region. The TEMCs
shall maintain a current record of official Government and State tags in use on
Navy-owned motor vehicles within their areas of support to include the special program
for registration and U.S. Government tags for vehicles regularly based or housed in the
District of Columbia. The records shall describe the motor vehicle by type and U.S.
Navy registration number, cross-referenced to the special tag numbers, and shall
include information regarding all subsequent reassignments of tags and voided tag
numbers.
2-34
However, for any design change that affects the safe operating characteristics or
warranty, the TEMC shall obtain the approval of the manufacturer (contractor).
(1) Must be “non-excess” to the activity mission (i.e., must be required for
continuing approved programs/missions of the holding activity).
(3) Must not be expressly prohibited from sale. See sub-paragraph (c).
(1) The unit must meet or exceed shore life expectancy criteria (age or
miles), as defined in Appendix F, at the time of sale. OR
(2) The unit must require repairs that would exceed economical repair cost
limits defined in Sections 2.7.2 and 2.7.3. Specifically,
(a) Alpha Code A-N equipment (less passenger carrying) must require
repairs the total cost of which would exceed 50% of the unit’s acquisition cost.
(b) Alpha Code O-Z equipment must require repairs the total cost of
which would exceed the unit’s one-time repair cost limit defined in Appendix F.
2-35
c. Expressly prohibited from sale, and thus subject to disposal requirements
contained in Section 2.13, are those units determined ineligible for sale (based on the
above criteria) and units in the following categories:
d. This section does not apply to CESE offered as exchange (trade-in) when
such exchange is applied as whole or partial payment toward the acquisition of similar
items. Refer to DFARS Subpart 217.70 (Exchange of Personal Property) and to the
Federal Property Management Regulations Part 101-46 (Replacement of Personal
Property Pursuant to the Exchange/Sale Authority) for guidance in this area.
2.12.2 Sale Proceeds: Proceeds from the sale of CESE must be applied to the
procurement of a like or similar item which replaces the unit being sold and performs
substantially the same function as the item being sold. Further, sale/procurement
transactions are authorized on a one-for-one basis only; the proceeds from the sale of
two or more units cannot be combined to procure a single unit, as the additional unit(s)
sold would be considered “excess” and thus not eligible for sale.
2.12.4 Documentation.
a. Pre-Sale: Prior to sale, the holding activity must prepare a written
determination supporting sale of the equipment. This determination, which must be
maintained as part of the procurement record of the replacement unit, must state that:
(1) The anticipated monetary return from the sale warrants the administrative
effort and associated costs incurred as a result of the sale.
b. Post-Sale: After the sale, the selling activity must document that:
2-36
(1) The sale was conducted in accordance with the requirements of this
section,
(2) The proceeds from the sale were in fact available for application in full or
in partial payment for the item acquired and
(3) The item acquired with sale proceeds are needed for on-going mission
support and is similar to and/or performs similar functions as the item sold.
c. General: Sale and funds flow documentation sufficient to satisfy outside audit
must be retained on file for a minimum of three years. Documentation recommended
for retention includes: Pre- and post-sale determination statements, summary historical
maintenance and repair documents; one-time repair cost estimates; out of service
rate/lost revenue documentation; a description of the old and new unit (including a
statement of similarity and a copy of the Standard Form 97, Certificate of Release of a
Motor Vehicle of the unit sold); funds flow documentation showing a clear link between
sale proceeds and procurement funds; a statement that the unit sold was eligible for
replacement, and any other documentation that would support sale of the equipment
and tracking of funds for audit purposes.
2.12.5 Accountability
a. Proceeds received from the sale of CESE shall be turned over to the
appropriate finance/disbursing officer for deposit and be properly identified as proceeds
from the sale of CESE eligible for replacement so that those proceeds may be applied
to the acquisition of replacement CESE.
b. Proceeds received from the sale of CESE shall be available for obligation for
the acquisition of replacement CESE during the fiscal year in which the sale is made
and for one fiscal year thereafter. Unused proceeds shall be deposited in the
miscellaneous receipts account at the Department of Treasury.
c. Proceeds received from the sale of CESE shall be taken into consideration in
the submission of budget requests.
d. Unless otherwise addressed in this section, proceeds from the sale of CESE
shall be accounted for in accordance with the GAO Policy Manual for Guidance of
Federal Agencies, title 7, Fiscal Procedures, Appendix V.
2.12.6 Compliance. Each NWCF activity must comply with this section when dealing
with the sale of CESE and the application of the proceeds of that sale to acquire
replacement CESE.
2-37
2.13 Distribution of Excess Transportation Equipment
b. Disposition Instructions for NCF, NCTCs and SOUs. All requests for
disposition instructions for CESE must be forwarded by the allowance holder (property
holders via their allowance holders) to NFELC Port Hueneme with the following
information provided for each USN-numbered piece of equipment: EC, description, year
of manufacture, condition code, accumulated miles/hours, estimated cost to repair to A4
condition, whether an allowance item or excess, a list of assigned attachments, and any
pertinent information about the item that would influence final disposition. After reviewing
the information, NFELC Port Hueneme shall determine whether or not it is feasible to
retain the item within the Navy. If it is considered feasible to retain, NFELC Port
Hueneme shall authorize retention by the activity, transfer to another activity or
rehabilitation at an overhaul facility. If retention is not economical, NFELC Port Hueneme
shall direct the transfer of the equipment with its collateral equipage, attachments, and
Equipment History Jacket to DRMO. Activities shall remove all unit decals and stencils
from equipment prior to turn-in to DRMO. Activities must request and obtain NFELC Port
Hueneme approval for the removal of any parts PRIOR to turning in equipment to DRMO.
Within thirty (30) days after completion of transfer actions, forward a SIGNED (signed by
the receiving activity/DRMO representative) and DATED copy of the transfer document,
DD Form 1348-1, or 1149, Procurement Requisition Invoice/Shipping Document, to
NFELC Port Hueneme.
c. Navy activities may withdraw serviceable, excess CESE from the property
disposal account to satisfy unfilled inventory objectives/allowances. These acquisitions
shall be reported to the TEMC/NFELC Port Hueneme within 15 days after receipt.
Temporary withdrawals may also be made to obtain necessary parts for an item of
CESE. Once parts are withdrawn, the excess vehicle shall be returned to DRMO.
2-38
2.13.2 Reporting of Excess Medical, Railway, Fire Fighting, and Material Handling
Equipment. Regardless of equipment condition, the holding activity shall report excess
medical, railway, and fire fighting equipment on a Standard Form (SF) 120 to the TEMC
for disposal instructions as follows:
a. Ambulances and other special medical and dental vehicles shall be listed
on an SF 120, separate from other equipment, which shall be forwarded to the
responsible TEMC, with a copy to the Health Care Support Office. This is not
applicable to NCF and SOU field type ambulances.
c. Fire fighting equipment shall be listed on a separate SF120 and sent to the
responsible TEMC.
(d) The Allowance Holder then transfers the equipment along with
a DD Form 1348-1 to The Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office (DRMO), and
obtains a signed copy of the DD Form 1348-1, Procurement Requisition/DoD Single Line
Item Release/Receipt Document.
2-39
(2) Equipment Description. Reports shall include a complete description
of the equipment in Block 18(b).
f. Block 6 - Enter the appropriate fund account number when applicable (e.g.,
exchange/sale property, nonappropriated fund property).
h. Block 8 - Enter the name and title of the person approving the report. The
signature of this person or their authorized designee is required.
2-40
i. Block 9 - Enter the name and DSN, FTS, or commercial telephone number
of the person to contact for further data about reported material.
k. Block 11 - Enter the office to which requisitions are to be sent. If the data
is the same as Block 7, the words "see Block 7" may be used.
n. Block 14 - Enter the UIC of the activity where the material is located. If no
UIC is available, enter the complete name and mailing address of the activity plus the
UIC of the reporting activity shown in Block 7.
s. Block 18b - The following is required (plus any other pertinent data,
particularly that which would prevent redistribution when unsuited for the requirements
of the receiving activity):
t. Block 18c - Enter the Federal Condition Code (see Appendix I).

2-42
2.13.4 Disposition of Serviceable Excess Transportation Equipment (Shore
Activities). Excess equipment determined by the holding activity to be in condition
(see Appendix I) other than H or S (Supply Condition Codes) and/or 3, 6, 9, X or S
(Disposal Condition Codes) are considered to have the potential for further use and
redistribution within the Navy. The holding activity shall forward a SF 120, Report of
Excess Personal Property, prepared in accordance with paragraph 2.12.3, to the
appropriate TEMC. The report may be mailed as an original copy or sent by facsimile
machine. Such equipment shall be screened by the TEMC upon receipt of the SF 120.
If transfer to another activity supported by the TEMC is warranted, instructions shall be
issued within 15 days from receipt of the SF 120 to the holding activity. Prior to
shipment, a physical condition check should be made by the receiving activity to avoid
the shipping costs for equipment that is in unsatisfactory condition. The SF 120
containing undistributed excess items shall be returned to the original holding activity
with instructions to transfer excess items to the appropriate DRMO. The holding activity
shall process property record disposition actions in accordance with paragraph 2.12.7.
2-43
2.14 Warranties and Deficiencies
2.14.4 Safety Deficiencies. All CESE developing deficiencies affecting safe operation
shall be immediately removed from service until corrective action has been completed.
Safety deficiencies shall be reported on a Quality Deficiency Report (QDR), Standard
Form 368 (Figure 2-5) to CO NNFELC Port Hueneme, 1000 23rd Avenue, Building
1000, Port Hueneme, CA 93043-4410 with a copy to the responsible TEMC. A blank
copy of this form is available on the TEMC-provided website. In lieu of a QDR form, the
requested information may be stated in any type of written correspondence. QDR
information detailing safety deficiencies can be faxed to NFELC Port Hueneme at (805)
982-5806 or DSN 551-5806. NFELC Port Hueneme shall identify and notify the TEMCs
and other Navy activities affected by the safety deficiency. After initial reporting of
safety deficiencies, activities shall pursue the same action identified for warranty or
contract deficiencies. In-house repairs to correct a safety deficiency shall have the
manufacturer’s authorization.
2-44
2.14.5 Warranty Deficiencies. Activities shall initiate the following corrective action for
CESE warranty deficiencies:
a. CESE in the U.S. Activities located in the U.S. shall contact authorized
representatives of the contractor for warranty deficiency correction. The activities shall
report the warranty deficiencies and their efforts to resolve the deficiency on a QDR as
outlined in paragraph 2.14.9. Activities having shop facilities shall correct minor
warranty deficiencies in-house when the total cost to the Government to transport the
equipment to and from the dealer exceeds the total cost of the warranty claim, or when
the delay in obtaining warranty service through the dealer shall result in unacceptable
downtime. Activities making in-house warranty repairs cannot submit a claim against
the contractor unless the contractor has authorized the repairs as part of the
contractor’s warranty obligation.
2-45
b. CESE outside the U.S. Usually contractors’ warranty obligation outside of
the U.S. is limited to providing replacement parts only. Activities shall contact
contractors directly to request replacement parts needed for the activity to correct the
deficiencies. The activities shall report the warranty deficiencies and their efforts to
resolve the deficiency on a QDR as outlined in paragraph 2.14.9.
2.14.6 Contract Deficiencies. CESE with contract deficiencies can fall into one of two
cases: Case (1) Contractor has provided equipment that does not meet contract
requirements and, therefore, the contractor has an obligation to correct the deficiency
(e.g. a latent defect not detected by the government inspector); or, Case (2) Contractor
has provided equipment that meets contract requirements but the equipment does not
meet the activity’s requirements. In case (1), the contractor has a responsibility to
correct the deficiency and the activity shall submit a QDR and initiate the same action
specified for warranty deficiencies in paragraph 2.14.5 above. In case (2), the
contractor has no obligation to correct the deficiency and the activity has the
responsibility for any action or cost associated with correction of the deficiency.
Activities shall complete QDRs for case (2) deficiencies in accordance with paragraph
2.14.9 so future contracts can be written to include all Navy requirements. In some
circumstances an activity may not be able to determine whether a contract deficiency is
case (1) or case (2). In this situation the QDR should so state and ask for assistance
from NFELC Port Hueneme 15L2 in making this determination.
2-46
2.14.9 Preparation and Distribution of Quality Deficiency Report (QDR),
Standard Form 368. When the type of deficiencies noted in paragraph 2.14.4, 2.14.5
and 2.14.6 are discovered, where appropriate, activities shall complete QDR reports as
indicated below. If the form is not available, the requested information may be stated in
any type of written correspondence. Completeness and accuracy are essential for
processing the QDR in a timely manner and for providing all necessary action.
b. Distribution. The originating activity shall date and assign a serial number
to each QDR report and distribute NFELC Port Hueneme with copy to TEMC.
c. Final Resolution. NFELC Port Hueneme and the TEMCs shall coordinate
action until the QDR is resolved. NFELC Port Hueneme 15L2 shall provide notification
of the final resolution of major deficiencies to both TEMCs, NAVFAC, and to the
affected activities.
2.14.10 Additional QDR Guidance. It is important that the QDR state what corrective
action has been taken and the status of this action. The status shall indicate names of
dealers, factory branch offices or manufacturers contacted, and action resulting from
such contacts. If the same deficiency is found on several units of similar equipment,
only one QDR has to be submitted, referencing each of the several units involved.
Similarly, if several deficiencies are found on one unit of equipment, only one QDR has
to be submitted. Submit an additional QDR, referencing previous applicable QDR
report(s), if a deficiency recurs on a previously repaired or replaced part. For
deficiencies that are not satisfactorily corrected when the contractor is responsible, the
QDR shall contain the name and address of the manufacturer’s representative who did
not comply with the terms of the warranty or contract, and the reasons for
noncompliance. The Navy Quality Deficiency Reporting Program is governed by
SECNAVINST 4855.6.
2-47
2.15 Painting And Identification Markings
b. Authorized Colors for NCF,NCTCs and SOUs. Colors of all paint used on
CESE shall provide the best available color match of the following color chips in Federal
Standard No. 595B.
2-48
for various seasons and climatic regions described in the U.S. Marine Corps
Camouflage Paint Patterns, TM-4750-15/2-2. Appendix J contains additional guidance.
Sand 1 GL 8010-00-111-7988
Sand 5 GL 8010-00-111-8336
Black 1 GL 8010-00-111-8005
Black 5 GL 8010-00-111-8356
2.15.3 Recruiting Vehicles. The marking of vehicles for recruiting purposes shall be
as prescribed by the Bureau of Naval Personnel (BUPERS) and as approved by CNO.
Those vehicles may display signs and/or slogans in accordance with Instructions
promulgated by BUPERS or Naval Recruiting Command.
2-49
2.15.4 Vehicle Identification. NFELC Port Hueneme will assign a unique USN
registration number to each Navy-owned/non-GSA leased CESE unit at the time of
acquisition. Normally, this number will be displayed either directly on the unit or on a
Navy license plate affixed to the unit. Regardless of exterior markings, the USN
number of Navy-owned equipment shall be permanently exhibited (via indelible pen,
engraved inscription or mounted nomenclature plate) on an interior surface of the unit
(such as on the underside of the trunk lid or engine compartment, on a door jam or in
the glove compartment); leased units shall not be marked in this manner.
a. License Plates.
(2) Standard Navy license plates are flat, with digitally produced graphics,
watermarks and holograms to deter counterfeiting. The standard Navy plates have blue
lettering on a white reflective background (Shore) or black lettering on a non-reflective
olive drab background (Active Force) and display the words “US GOVERNMENT,”
“FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” AND “NAVY,” as well as the USN number of the unit. No
other plate designs are authorized and no additional seals, emblems, logos, bar codes,
etc. may be added to the standard plate. Vehicles/equipment displaying standard Navy
plates do not require any other identification markings, as the digital plates meet
mandatory marking requirements.
(4) Navy plates must be procured from the mandatory Federal supply
source, which is the Federal Prison Industries (UNICOR). Requests to procure plates
2-50
from other sources must be approved by UNICOR in advance, via issuance of a waiver
to NAVFAC Headquarters. All individuals ordering license plates must be government
employees, authorized in advance by NAVFAC Headquarters to place the order.
Procedures for designating authorized order personnel and ordering plates may be
obtained from the responsible TEMC.
(5) License plates for equipment procured by NFELC Port Hueneme with
OPN funds are paid for from a central NAVFAC Headquarters account; this includes
plates for NWCF passenger carrying vehicles. NAVFAC also pays for plates for
equipment acquired by Navy Appropriated fund activities outside of normal procurement
channels (such as via commercial lease/lease-purchase, inter-agency transfer,
donation, withdrawal from DRMO, etc.), and for passenger carrying vehicles acquired
by NWCF activities outside of normal channels. Plates for equipment procured by
NFELC Port Hueneme outside of the OPN program are paid for from the administrative
charge NFELC Port Hueneme applies to procurements. Plates for equipment not
procured by NFELC Port Hueneme must be ordered direct from UNICOR and paid for
by the end user, unless prior arrangements have been made with NFELC Port
Hueneme.
(6) All plates ordered by NFELC Port Hueneme are shipped direct to the
end user; they are not shipped with or installed on new procurement vehicles.
Therefore, end-users must ensure that plates received are installed on the proper
vehicle, that property records are properly annotated and that accurate plate-to-
vehicle/VIN data is entered into CASEMIS. License plates shall not be switched
between vehicles.
(7) Navy license plates shall not be installed on POVs, contractor owned
equipment or vehicles leased from GSA.
(8) Activities will report lost, stolen or missing plates to the local Security
Department and the responsible TEMC upon notice of the loss. USN numbers
corresponding to missing plates may be re-utilized; replacement plates may be
acquired by specifying the desired USN number when ordering. The TEMC will retain a
list of all missing plate numbers.
2-51
b. Other Markings.
(1) Dedicated off-road equipment (such as railroad equipment, tracked
equipment and construction equipment that is tailored to the job site) is not required to
display license plates unless required by local law, host nation mandate or status of
forces agreement. In lieu of license plates, equipment in these categories must display
Navy markings in the sizes/locations shown in Appendix J, Figure J-6. Normally, the
size of the letters and numerals shall be 3 inches or as otherwise depicted in Appendix
J; however, size may be varied to suit available space for smaller surfaces.
(a) Paint. Use gloss enamel. Vehicles painted with CARC, only
CARC paint shall be used for markings.
(d) Pressure Sensitive Vinyl (NCFs, NCTCs and SOUs). This decal
method involves application directly on the equipment of nonreflectorized pressure-
sensitive elastomeric film or to reflectorized pressure-sensitive film. The decals may be
procured from NNFELC Port Hueneme, NNFELC Gulfport, or from commercial sources.
Requisitioning data for black pressure-sensitive vinyl numerals and letters is listed
below.

2.15.5 Special Markings for Aviation and Ground Fuel Servicing Vehicles. Special
markings are required on fuel and oil servicing trucks and trailers to minimize the
possibility of replenishing aircraft systems with an improper grade of fuel or oil.
Precautionary markings are also required to provide sufficient warnings regarding the
content of these vehicles. Type IV, Class 1 wide-angle prismatic reflective markings as
outlined in ASTM D 4956 shall be used. Markings shall be 6-inch reflective red
alphanumeric characters on an 8-inch prismatic reflective white background. Except as
noted (paragraph 2.15.5.e.), painted markings, in lieu of reflective markings, are not
authorized.

materials, SW020-AF-ABK-010, Basic and the rules and regulations prescribed by the
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal
Highway Administration, Bureau of Motor Carrier Safety.
2.15.11 Flag Officer and VIP Identification. Flag Officers, Staff Officers of flag rank,
and VIPs are authorized to display their flag rank on sedans by means of a special
plate (see Appendix J, Figure J-5). Flag rank displays shall not be painted on surfaces
of the vehicle nor shall staffs be affixed. All other identification, painting, and marking
instructions herein prescribed for Government-owned vehicles are to be strictly adhered
to as required by law and regulations.
2-56
(1) On the front, where space permits, the word “AMBULANCE” shall be
displayed in letters 3-inches high, centered above the windshield. A 3-inch high red
cross on a 4-inch square white field shall be located both to the left and right, in line
with the word “AMBULANCE” above the windshield.
(2) On the rear, a 6-inch high red cross on an 8-inch square white field shall be
centered on each door panel, approximately 8 to 10 inches below the window,
depending on vehicle configuration.
(3) On each side and on the top, a red cross on a white background shall be
painted. Size of the cross and background shall depend upon the vehicles’
configuration.
2.15.15 Records of Exempted Vehicles. Each TEMC shall maintain current inventory
records of all administrative use motor vehicles that are authorized exemptions from the
identification and marking provisions of the DoD 4500.36-R.
2-57

Recommended stenciling locations for the Seabee emblems are listed in Appendix J.
These recommendations shall be closely adhered to. If the recommended location has
less than 8-inch width or height, the stencil shall be centered, with the Seabee itself
shown upon the equipment, without concern for the trim. If space does not permit this,
a 4-inch stencil may be used. If there is doubt about the proper stenciling location,
contact NFELC Port Hueneme. Stencils may be requisitioned from NNFELC Port
Hueneme or NNFELC Gulfport, using the data below, and a funded requisitioning
document.
h. Tie Down Markings. It is recommended that tie downs and the capacity of
each tie down ring be permanently attached to the equipment.
2-58
I. SIXCON Fuel Tanks. Fuel tanks shall be marked on each side with the
word "FLAMMABLE" in 6-inch black letters directly above the words "NO SMOKING
WITHIN 50 FEET" in 3-inch black letters. A removable 8- by 36-inch black sign with 6-
inch yellow letters designating the type of liquid being transported shall be mounted in a
bracket bolted on each side of the tank frame or tank carrier. This sign shall be marked
"MOGAS" on one side and "DIESEL" on the other.
(b) Automotive towed equipment: one on rear and one on left side
near the front.

(b) Side Sign. Trailers shall use a yellow, 6-inch diameter side
sign with black lettering and shall be mounted or painted on the right side of the trailer
facing forward.
2-59
2.16 Activity/Unit Transportation Organization. The administration of
transportation equipment matters at an activity should be the responsibility of a
specifically designated component of the activity. This component is usually described
as the "Transportation Division" and is normally a part of the Public Works Department
(PWD). Transportation functions at smaller activities are often administered by a
transportation branch or section.
a. Operations Branch
(1) Operates the activity bus and taxi system for the movement of
personnel.
(2) Operates the trucking system for the movement of material and
equipment.
2-60
(6) Operates station motor pool and assigns vehicles on daily or trip basis
(Class C assignments), and responds to all intermittent random requests.
(1) Under the Operations Branch: Station Bus Section, Taxi Section,
Heavy Equipment Section, Crane and Rigger Section, and Operator Licensing and
Examining Section.
2.16.3 The NCF/SOU Equipment Organization (Titles and Duties). The terms and
titles in this manual when referring to NCFs/SOUs are normally those used in a Naval
Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) as outlined in NAVFAC P-315, Naval
Construction Force Manual. The person filling the following jobs in your organization
may have a completely different title, but the function should be basically the same.
2-61
c. Dispatcher. The key position in the management of the equipment of the
unit is the Dispatcher, who controls the day-to-day assignment and CESE usage. The
Dispatcher's primary duties are to receive and evaluate requests for vehicles and then
dispatch suitable equipment from authorized resources. It is the dispatcher's
responsibility to check the operator's Vehicle Operator’s Identification Card (OF-346)
and license, when applicable, prior to issuing a trip ticket, provide for the most
economical use of manpower and equipment, and ensure equipment safety, security,
and proper use.
2-62
switches shall install a method of padlocking the steering wheel or gearshift lever.
Dispatch offices without a 24-hour duty watch must use locked key cases or cabinets.

Safety Manual (NCF only). Chapter 3 further explains license forms and procedures.
2-64
transporting explosive/hazardous material, must successfully pass both a written
knowledge examination and a performance qualification test as outlined in paragraph
3.10.
2-65
and produce standard or special reports, enhances productivity. It also provides the
database necessary to allow management to review performance on an exception or
specific basis without the excessive effort needed to perform a manual analysis, or
search through numerous satisfactory performance items to find the few problem areas.
This means effective use of management time and timely identification of minor
problem areas before they become major. There are a number of reliable, off-the-shelf
Transportation Management Information Systems that have the necessary tools to
effectively and efficiently track all aspects of an activity’s operations and maintenance
program.
2-66
(4) Tech-Edit: Provides access to a variety of functions for processing
Supply Requisitions/Purchase Orders when the MicroSNAP SFM subsystem is
not installed.
(6) Dispatch Operations: Provides for the daily dispatch and return
operations of vehicles.
(7) Manage Direct Turnover (DTO) Parts: Allows for ordering and
issuing of DTO parts. Provides sequential records and proof of order of all parts
requests.
(9) Interfaces with MicroSNAP SFM: Order requests are sent directly
to MicroSNAP SFM for approval and processing. Stock checks can be
performed for MicroSNAP MOSS. Provides direct access to MicroSNAP SFM
for ordering of non-maintenance related supplies.
2.18 Most Efficient Organization (MEO). MEO, in its generic sense, simply means
that a function, in this case Transportation Operations and Maintenance (O&M), is
operating at optimum efficiency and in the most effective manner possible. The term
evolved from the Commercial Activities (CA) program reviews mandated by Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76, and in the past several years it has
assumed increasing importance to CESE managers. For the most part, the Navy's
success in Transportation O&M CA reviews can be credited to the survey teams and
activity personnel who have identified various methods for improving efficiency and
reducing costs through an established MEO. Activity CESE managers should look
closely at their respective Transportation O&M functions (whether involved in CA or not)
with a view toward achieving the MEO. To assist in this endeavor, some of the more
significant improvement/cost reductions that should be considered are provided:
a. Maintenance Function
2-67
(2) Implement incentive pay for mechanics.
(12) Adjust pay grades of mechanics to commensurate with job skill level
requirements.
(14) Cost all labor in accordance with the DoD FMR Cost Account Codes
(CACs).
b. Operations Function
2-68
(a) Use computerized dispatch/assignment system.
(6) Maximize the use of support contracts (peak vehicle rental, fixed runs,
trash and garbage).
(8) Use part time labor for fixed runs, for example, seasonal schedules.
(9) Ensure operators perform service checks (oil, water, tires, etc.) and
applicable service facilities are conveniently located, operational, and
utilized.
c. Other Possibilities
(3) Revise working hours (night for trash & garbage, etc.).
2-69
Cost Comparison Handbook as a supplement. Program inquiries connected with
transportation equipment support shall be directed to the appropriate TEMC.
2-70
CHAPTER 3. OPERATIONS
This chapter contains guidelines for the administration of transportation equipment
matters concerning the functions of a Transportation Organization set forth in
paragraph 2.15.
3.1 Trip Tickets. The Motor Equipment Utilization Record (DD Form 1970) (Figure
3-1) or an activity generated Trip Ticket, shall be employed as the basic document for
information concerning the utilization of motor vehicles and shall be prepared in
accordance with instructions on the back of the form. Navy activities using
mechanized/computerized motor vehicle utilization data gathering systems shall
establish operating procedures to implement this requirement. The use of the Trip
Ticket for Class A and Class B assignments on station shall be optional as determined
by the activity Commanding Officer. Trip Tickets are required for all NCF and SOU
activities regardless of the class assignment. Trip Tickets are required daily for all off
station and C pool vehicle dispatching. All Trip Ticket data shall be recorded on the
Dispatcher's Log described below and retained for at least 90 days after issue.
3-1
3.2 Dispatcher’s Log. The Dispatcher's Log (NAVFAC Form 9-11240/2) (Figure 3-
2) or activity generated log shall be used record all vehicles dispatched off station and
for all Class C pool vehicles. Activities are encouraged to develop an electronic
dispatch form. Completed dispatch logs and trip tickets shall be forwarded to the
transportation/operations supervisor for review and filing. The Dispatcher’s Log shall be
retained for 90 days.
3-2
3.3 Bus Service
3.3.1 Bus Service, General. It is Navy policy to provide sufficient bus service to
effectively support activity missions. This support may be provided to military
personnel, DoD civilians, contractor employees, and military dependents. This service
may be provided with government-owned, leased, or chartered equipment, or with
contract service. Expenses for the operation of such services shall be paid from
appropriated funds. In all cases, bus systems are funded from station O&M,N funds,
whether or not fares are collected. For reimbursement, which may be available for
certain, school bus operations, see Chapter 6 of the DoD 4500.36-R. While not all
inclusive, Figure 3-3 provides a quick reference to the types of bus service available.
Government-furnished transportation services shall be categorized as group
home-to-work transportation service, base mass transit, and shuttle bus service.
3-3
a. Application of the various types of available transportation services:
3-4
(1) Other facilities are inadequate and cannot be made adequate;
b. Authorization for Base Mass Transit Services. CNO may authorize base
mass transit services on any military installation, or in some cases between
sub-installations, which are within the established permissible operating distance, if the
service is determined to be efficient, practical, and in the best interest of the Navy. In
authorizing the establishment of such systems, CNO must determine that:
(1) A potential for saving energy and for reducing air pollution exists;
c. Reimbursement
3-5
(4) All fare and proceeds received by DoD components from the
operation of mass transportation services must be accounted for and deposited in the
U.S. Treasury as miscellaneous receipts, pursuant to provisions of 10 U.S.C. 2632.
(2) Current military and civilian strength, and authorized changes that
shall affect transportation requirements. Show breakdown of work-shifts if applicable.
(4) Points to which service is required and the distance between the
installation and each point.
3-6
type, source, number, and seating capacity of the equipment to be used. The amount
of fare to be charged shall be stated and a map or sketch of the area enclosed. If the
proposed service is to be operated with Government-owned vehicles, requests must
indicate that the local commercial carriers have no desire or capacity to provide the
service.

3-8
agree with the collections turned over for deposit with the Disbursing Officer. If the
collections are given to a collection agent responsible for obtaining cash from all ticket
agents for deposit with the tickets held by the agents, the results of such counts should
be reconciled with agents' control records. The amount of sales recorded in the
inventory control records should agree with the collections turned over for deposit with
the Disbursing Officer. If the collections are given to a collection agent responsible for
obtaining cash from all ticket agents for deposit with the Disbursing Officer, the ticket
agent should obtain a custody receipt for the cash turned over. The custody receipt
may be changed to indicate receipt for cash instead of tickets. The depositing
collection agent should maintain a record of ticket sales, showing this data, to
substantiate the Cash Collection Voucher (DD Form 1131), FMB Manual. Receipts
should be deposited with the Disbursing Officer daily or at any other reasonable
interval.
k. Use of Coin Boxes. Where coin boxes are used, the activity Disbursing
Officer should establish policy and procedures for accounting for cash deposits.
Vehicles should be equipped with tamper-proof coin boxes that permit visual inspection
of coins inserted. If lock type boxes are used, the Transportation Officer or an
authorized representative other than the driver of the vehicle should retain the keys.
3.3.3 Shuttle Bus Service (Scheduled Activity Bus Service). The capability to
transport groups of individuals on official business between offices on installations or
between nearby installations is a recognized requirement and is essential to mission
support. The effective use of buses reduces the requirement for individual assignment
of administrative vehicles.
(1) Military personnel and DoD employees between offices and work
areas of the installation or activity during designated duty hours when justified by the
rider ship. These routes should be designed to service offices and work areas only and
should not include base housing areas, recreational or shopping areas unless these
areas cannot reasonably be avoided in servicing the authorized points.
3-9
(1) Established routes and schedules must be based on a validated
need to transport passengers authorized above. Shuttle bus routes shall not be used to
provide domicile-to-duty travel except as authorized above.
(2) The conveyance used must be no larger than the most economical
available to accommodate "duty" passengers.
(4) Retirees.
3-10
3.3.6 Emergency Bus Service. In compliance with Title 10, Section 2632, U.S.
Code, transportation between domicile and places of employment may be provided for
military personnel and civilian employees during public transportation strikes or other
stoppages. This applies only to those who are actively engaged in projects, or the
support of projects, the continued delay of which would adversely affect national
defense. Fares for such service shall be charged and accounted for as described in
paragraph 3.3.2. Routine construction, repair, or overhaul of aircraft, ships, or material
peculiar to the Navy shall not qualify under this policy. When public transit strikes or
other work stoppages are imminent or in progress, Commanding Officers who
determine that transportation between domiciles and places of employment is essential
shall submit the following information to CNO, with COMNAVFACENGCOM and the
appropriate TEMC as a copy addressee.
f. Proposed fares.
3.3.7 School Bus. School bus operation is covered in Chapter 6 of the DoD
4500.36-R. However, a Transit Facility Control Number for each school bus operation
should be requested from the COMNAVFACENGCOM (Code PWT). The request for
the Transit Facility Control Number should include the name of the activity, the
school(s) served, the approximate number of children provided daily transportation, the
number of buses involved, the approximate distance traveled one way daily by each
bus, and a map showing the route(s). COMNAVFACENGCOM should also be advised
when the school bus service is discontinued.
a. Policy. The following rules, which are based on a Bureau of Medicine and
Surgery (BUMED) instruction (NAVMEDCOMINST 6700.42), shall be strictly adhered to
in relation to the operation of Medical Department ambulances.
b. Use of Ambulances
(1) Ambulances shall be used only for the transportation of such wounded
or injured persons who are eligible by law, regulation, or humanitarian consideration for
treatment in Medical Department facilities of any of the armed services.
3-11
(2) Ambulances shall not be used in lieu of other vehicles for transporting
messengers, mail carriers, baggage, food, commercial type hauling or general use.
(3) Vehicles other than ambulances shall be used to the maximum extent
practicable to provide transportation for personnel between remote sections of an
activity, or between adjacent activities, for routine medical and dental examinations or
treatment, including X-rays, laboratory tests, and dental treatment.
(4) Each ambulance dispatched shall have at least one attendant who is
Emergency Medical Technician-Ambulance (EMT-A) trained.
d. Ambulance Speed Limits. All State laws, municipal ordinances, and local
command orders and instructions relating to operations of motor vehicles shall be
strictly observed.
3-12
3.5 Assignment and Operation of Law Enforcement Vehicles
3.5.2 Authorized Vehicles. Navy policy and standards for law enforcement/base
security vehicles are regulated by CNO (N09N). That office has issued OPNAVNOTE
5530 of 4 Feb 1991 (to be incorporated in the next update of OPNAVINST 5530.14),
providing the following guidance on law enforcement/security vehicles.
The only vehicles that come equipped with a police package are the standard law
enforcement/security vehicles specified in Federal Standard 122 as Item 17 (midsize
patrol sedan) and the Item 17A (large pursuit sedan). These vehicles are authorized for
use by Navy security departments as outlined in subparagraphs a. and b. below.
However, since individual activity requirements vary, non-police package compact and
midsize sedans or pickup trucks may be substituted for the Item 17 and 17A vehicles.
Consideration should be given to the high cost of leasing the 17 and 17A vehicles and
fuel economy when determining base security vehicle requirements. Activities should
also consider using a mix of vehicles to fill their security vehicle requirements.
3.5.3 Non-standard Vehicles. There may be special needs for unmarked vehicles or
other non-standard law enforcement vehicles; e.g., vans, and patrol wagons specially
designed for prisoner transport, special response vehicles, or transport vehicles for the
K-9 Corps. Public Works Departments shall provide non-standard vehicles only when
authorized by the major claimants. Requests for such vehicles should be forwarded to
major claimants for approval. Requests must cite complete justification for nonstandard
vehicles.
3-13
or low mileage/use vehicles. Leasing is more practical than procurement because of
rapid accumulation of mileage and extensive wear. Vehicles should be leased off the
Navy’s Centralized Leasing Contract for Surveillance and Law Enforcement Vehicles
since these vehicles are equipped with heavy duty components, have unlimited
mileage, and specific models can be requested. A cost analysis is not required for
high-mileage law enforcement/base security vehicles.
3.6 Utilization
3-14
3.6.3 Equipment Subject to the Program. All Navy-owned or leased CESE grouped
under Alpha Codes A through N (less Alpha Code F), are subject to the program.
Alpha Codes R (MHE), S, U, W, and Y may be included at the discretion of the activity
and activities are encouraged to do so. A summary of all alpha codes is provided in
figure 3-6 below.
3.6.4 Equipment Excluded from the Program. All Navy-owned or leased CESE
grouped under Alpha Codes F, O, P, Q, T, V, X, and Z are excluded from the utilization
program; however usage (miles/hours) shall be recorded to satisfy other reporting
requirements, e.g., TEMES, cost reports, maintenance scheduling, etc. Administrative
use vehicles are not to be excluded from the program because of assignment to special
use. Some examples of special use are pickup trucks assigned to station fire
departments, trucks modified with temporary racks to facilitate handling certain types of
cargo, service oriented trucks such as tire and lube service trucks mounted with small
air compressors, and truck tractors used with aviation gasoline (AVGAS) trailers.
3.7.1 Vehicle Usage Reduction. Vehicle usage shall be reduced to that essential to
mission accomplishment. Executive Order (EO) 13149, Greening the Government
through Federal Fleet and Transportation Efficiency, requires Federal agencies to take
a leadership role in the reduction of vehicular petroleum consumption. Activities shall
adhere to guidance established by the Navy to implement this EO. Walking and use of
bicycles should be encouraged where appropriate. The most fuel-efficient mode of
transportation consistent with total cost effectiveness shall be employed, considering
the following:
3-15
a. Bus Systems. Maximize use of scheduled bus systems where
economically feasible and justified by passenger density.
3.7.2 Operation of Vehicles in a Fuel Efficient Manner. Refer to the Navy Driver’s
Handbook, MO-403, and manufacturer’s recommendation for guidance on operation of
vehicles in an efficient manner. This handbook provides detailed instructions to enable
drivers of Navy-owned or leased motor vehicles to operate safely, efficiently and in
conformance with applicable laws.
3.7.3 Ground Fuels Tax Refunds. The Internal Revenue Code (sections 6421 and
6427), the Code of Federal Regulations (same sections), and IRS Ruling 58-349 set
forth the tax laws and eligibility requirements for obtaining credits and refunds for taxes
paid on ground fuels used on base. Navy activities shall file refund claims for excise
taxes paid for ground fuels used on-base, in accordance with IRS Publication 378,
which states that commands can claim. As stated in IRS Publication 378, IRS Form
8849, Claim for Refund of Excise Taxes, shall be used to file a claim. The form
provides guidance for determining when a claim should be filed, depending on the
amount of on-base usage each quarter. The statue of limitations for filing claims is
three years after close of the fiscal year. Section 6421 of the IRS Code points out that
if a vehicle is used on a public highway (off-base) at any time during the period of the
claim, none of the fuel used in that vehicle qualifies for that claim period. IRS
Publication 387, Fuel Tax Credits and Refunds, provides details on filing claims. This
publication is available at any tax office. Navy activities were cited in a Navy Audit
Service Report in January 1998 for improperly filing for refund of excise taxes paid for
ground fuels (gasoline and diesel) used on base.
a. It is the policy of the Navy to ensure that all military personnel, civilian
employees, and contractor personnel operating vehicles and equipment on a
Government installation or operating Government owned vehicles or equipment on or
off Government property be properly licensed. Most States now have a classified motor
vehicle operator's licensing program that includes appropriate examinations to ensure
knowledge of traffic laws, ability to read road signs, vision, and color recognition; and to
ensure by road test competency to operate a specific class of vehicle. It is Navy policy
3-16
to accept, without further testing and examination, a valid operator's license issued by a
state or jurisdiction as proof that the applicant has achieved the proficiency level to
safely operate non-tactical Government vehicles up to 10,000 pounds gross vehicle
weight (GVW).
b. For vehicles over 10,000 GVW range, vehicle operators will have a valid state
driver’s license that is applicable for the class and type vehicle that will be operated.
The Commercial Driver’s License Program (CDLP) addressed in section 3.8.13
adequately covers the provisions when a CDL is required. Examination and testing of
operators is required for operation of vehicles over 10,000 pounds GVW, buses, or any
vehicle carrying placard able quantities of hazardous material, emergency service
vehicles, and special purpose vehicles (vehicles not otherwise covered by a CDL), and
to military personnel not possessing a valid state license. Further, it is Navy policy to
establish and conduct training programs for full-time motor vehicle operators (MVOs) to
promote driver safety, fuel-efficient operation, and reduced vehicle maintenance costs.
Additional training shall be provided to all operators of police vehicles, ambulances, fire
trucks, fuel trucks, buses, motorcycles, and vehicles used for transporting
ammunition/explosives and hazardous material. All OCONUS activities must comply
with host nation licensing requirements.
c. Policy for NCF and SOUs. All military personnel in the NCF and SOUs who
operate government owned or leased equipment under the administrative or operational
control of COMSECONDNCB, COMTHIRDNCB, or the Naval Facilities Expedtionary
Logistics Center shall be qualified and licensed in accordance with the provisions of this
section. Under no circumstances shall a vehicle be dispatched to a person who does
not have in his/her possession a valid U.S. Government Motor Vehicle Operator’s
Identification Card (OF-346) that covers the size and type of vehicle requested.
3.8.2 Applicability. The policy and procedures set forth herein are applicable to all
naval activities, afloat and ashore, including ships, and shall include military and civilian
operators of all motor vehicles, construction and specialized equipment. These policies
and procedures are not applicable to operators of aircraft ground handling and servicing
equipment under the cognizance of the Naval Air Systems Command, or to operators of
materials handling equipment (MHE) under the cognizance of the Naval Supply
Systems Command. Commanding Officers of shore activities and ships have authority
to issue the U.S. Government Motor Vehicle Operator's Identification Card (OF-346)
(Figure 3-7) under the procedures prescribed herein, and the Construction Equipment
Operator's License (NAVFAC 11260/2), Figure 3-9 in accordance with the procedures
set forth in paragraph 3.9. Operators of weight handling equipment (WHE) should refer
to NAVFAC P-307, Management of Weight Handling Equipment, for testing and
licensing requirements for WHE. For railroad equipment, more specific licensing
requirements are addressed in the NAVFAC P-301.

3.8.3 DoD Contract Personnel. Contracts and agreements will require that operators
comply with licensing requirements of the state and local motor vehicle laws. DOD
contract personnel shall not be issued OF-346 (U.S. Government Motor Vehicle
Operator's Card) or a Construction Equipment Operator's License (NAVFAC 11260/2).
DOD contract personnel assigned to operate either government owned/leased
equipment in performance of contract shall be certified, by the contractor and at
contractor's expense, as being fully qualified to operate the vehicles/equipment to which
they are assigned. The prime contractor shall document all operator qualifications.
This documentation shall be provided to the contract administrator prior to any contract
employee engaging in any mode of equipment operation. The contract administrator
shall retain documentation.
3.8.4 Motor Vehicle Operator's Testing and Licensing Procedures. All criteria in
this manual, along with other applicable directives, shall be used to establish and
implement an effective and efficient licensing program for DoD assigned personnel.
The following are some of the key manuals to consult regarding management of the
licensing program.
3-18
g. Defense Transportation Regulation (DoD 4500.9-R).
b. The SF-47 and OF-345 are both Physical Fitness Inquiry for Motor Vehicle
Operators. Historically, these forms were used to ascertain the physical fitness of
Federal employees, whose jobs were not regular motor vehicle operating jobs, to drive
Government-owned motor vehicles. They were also used in the renewal of
authorizations for all employees. Based on the information provided, renewals were
issued or the individual was referred for medical examination. Activities may continue
to use either of these forms as tools to manage their licensing program.
Note: The use of a DoD motor vehicle by a civilian employee to obtain a CDL as a condition of
employment is authorized since it meets the Ethics Reform Act of 1989.
(1) Civilian

3.8.7 Requirements for Issue of an OF-346
3-22
Special Programs Administration (RSPA) of the U.S. Department of Transportation
(DoT) promulgates 49 CFR Parts 100-185 that include the “Hazardous Materials
Regulations”. The Environmental Protection Agency promulgates 40 CFR Parts 260-
265 that pertain to transportation of Hazardous Wasted and Part 302 that addresses
Hazardous Substances. Compliance with these regulations, as well as DoD 4500.9-R
and NAVSUP P573 is a statutory and regulatory requirement.
3.8.10 Physical Fitness Review. Every four years, or less if deemed necessary,
activities shall provide for the review of physical fitness of all civilian employees who are
required to possess an OF-346 to operate government owned or leased motor vehicles
in accordance with standards and procedures established by the Office of Civilian
Manpower Management. Activities have the option of conducting this review on a more
frequent basis and are recommended to do so for regularly employed MVOs. The
Physical Fitness Inquiry (OF-345 or SF-47) is to be completed and retained in the
individual’s record. A physical fitness review of personnel who only require a valid state
driver's license to operate government owned or leased motor vehicles shall be
conducted in accordance with the licensing guidelines of the state in which the license
was issued.
3-23
3.8.11 Expiration and Revocation of OF-346
a. Expiration. The OF-346 is valid for a period of four years from the date of
issue and shall be renewed prior to the end of the expiration month. Each individual is
responsible for ensuring state licenses are kept current. The OF-346 renewal is
dependent upon a determination by the issuing authority that the operator continues to
meet the prescribed physical standards and continues to demonstrate competence in
driving the motor vehicles the individual is authorized to operate.
For NCFs/SOUs, the license examiner shall maintain a tickler file of each operator’s
license expiration date. Renewal action should start approximately 90 days before the
expiration date.
a. The DoT provides a central U.S. driver record identification facility that
contains information on drivers whose licenses have been denied, suspended, or
revoked. The states provide DoT with data for the register (computer inquiry), which is
used for evaluating initial and renewal applicants for licensing.

belts and vehicle modification shall meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards 208,
209, and 210 (49 CFR).
3.21.1 Motor Vehicle Seat Belt Requirement. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard Number 208, Occupant Crash Protection, (49 CFR 571.208) requires the
installation of occupant restraint systems for designated seating positions in all new
vehicles manufactured for sale in the United States. The term "designated seating
position" does not include auxiliary seats, such as jump seats.
(1) Each new heavy truck and MPV manufactured after July 1, 1971,
must have either a lap belt or a lap/shoulder belt at all seats.
(2) Buses manufactured after July 1, 1971, must have either a lap belt
or a lap/shoulder belt for the driver. No belts are required at other seating positions. (A
bus is a vehicle specifically designed and manufactured to carry more than 16 seated
occupants.)
3-40
d. Commercial vehicles of foreign manufacture purchased for use outside
the United States, its territories and possessions, shall meet all applicable safety
requirements of the country in which they are to be used.
a. Individuals shall not ride in seating positions where safety belts have not
been installed or are inoperative, except as specified herein.
b. Passengers (e.g. work crews) shall not ride in the cargo areas of motor
vehicles except when the vehicle has been modified (e.g. side-facing seats) for such
purposes in accordance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) 208,
209, and 210. Seat belts that are installed on side-facing seats in accordance with
Motor Vehicle Seat Belt Assembly Installations (SAE J800c), are not subject to the
strength tests of FMVSS 207, paragraph S4.2 or FMVSS 210, paragraphs S4.2 and S5.
If the vehicle is not equipped to carry passengers in a seated position with properly
installed safety belts, then a second vehicle shall be requested to transport the work
crew. However, per CNO message 171757Z of July 86:
(1) The sides and the end must be enclosed with stakes measuring 36
inches from floor of the truck; and
e. For NCFs and NOUs, in accordance with OPNAVINST 5100.12G, the use
of tactical vehicles for transporting personnel is authorized within the unit's local area of
operational responsibility after efforts to procure a safer means of transportation from
organic assets has been exhausted. With the exception of organized convoys,
passenger-carrying vehicles should be rented/leased when transporting personnel for
distances greater than 50 miles or more than one hour in duration.
3-41
3.22 Installation and Use of Warning Lights and Sirens
3.22.1 Application
3.23.1 Radio-Dispatched Taxi Systems. Each activity shall evaluate the benefits
and costs of implementing a radio-dispatched taxi system. For example, if
implementation of a radio-dispatched system substantially reduces Class B
assignments, and at a lower cost, then it shall be implemented.
3.24.1 Highway Use. It is the policy of the Navy to conform to state and local laws,
regulations, and ordinances relating to motor vehicle weight and size limitations. Where
interstate movements are involved, activity transportation directors or equivalents
should ensure that they have a current vehicle size and weight limitation publication
from state authorities of the states in which they plan oversize or overweight
movements.
3.24.2 State Laws. State laws provide that no vehicle exceeding any legal limitation of
weight or dimension may move over public highways unless the state(s) concerned
grant prior permission for such movement. Limitations on the weight and dimensions of
3-42
vehicles are necessary to ensure safe passage over the roads and bridges and to
prevent damage to highway facilities.
3.24.3 Permits. Vehicles exceeding the legal weight or size limitations shall not be
moved over public highways by or for any agency of the Navy unless prior permission is
granted by the state(s) concerned.
b. Curb Weight (CW). The CW of a truck is the scale weight of the vehicle
fully equipped, ready to operate, but without driver or payload. The CW includes the
weights of chassis, body, cab, accessories, equipment, tires, fuels, lubricants, and
coolants.
3-43
c. Payload (PL). The PL of a vehicle is the allowable rated load that a
vehicle can transport. The PL is computed by subtracting the sum of the CW and the
weight of the driver from the GVWR.
3.25.2 Work Plan. The work plan must be based on the priority and type of work to be
accomplished. Initial and continuing surveys by management are necessary to
determine foreseeable equipment needs. A useful planning tool for this purpose is a
graphic chart of projected work adjusted each month to show the probable work
demands over the next three months. It is expected that long-range projects and work
of a recurring nature will constitute most of the projected work. Scheduling equipment
and operator requirements must be closely coordinated between the transportation and
other departments concerned with work accomplishment. Equipment and operators
must be available to respond to emergency situations.
3.25.3 Equipment and Personnel. Obtaining and furnishing the proper equipment
and qualified personnel to accomplish the workload is a basic function of the
transportation department. Knowing the location, availability, and suitability of these
resources is a practical and continuing requirement. Such information can be displayed
visually on a control board or similar device. The following items are related to this
control technique:
3-44
a. Inventories of equipment reflected by up-to-date record cards.
3.25.4 Work Generation. The daily requirement for construction and weight handling
equipment man-hours and equipment-hours of service are generated by the needs of
various organizational elements of each naval activity. A current list of organizational
representatives authorized to request work involving the use of equipment shall be
available to those who authorize or supervise equipment operations. The procedure for
requesting services and channeling such requests shall be clearly written and made
available to all personnel concerned. This procedure shall be specific and concise for
both routine and emergency situations.
3.25.5 Work Requests. Requests for work must be exact and complete. If the work is
well defined, a measure of control and planning assistance is provided by outlining the
time dimensions, and extent of each job. Problems related to the definition of the work
shall be clarified with the responsible customer prior to work authorization. A visit to the
specific job site may also be warranted. A test of the clarity and usefulness of a work
request is whether an equipment supervisor can use its contents, without other
explanation, to plan and perform the required service.
3.25.6 Work Classification. The work of the equipment fleet is, in most cases, related
directly to the needs of organizational elements of the naval activity or supported
activities involving operations, production, supply, ordnance, public works, and similar
functions. The nature of the work of these organizational elements is predominantly
routine, scheduled, and orderly. There is no reason why the same emphasis on
routine, scheduled, and orderly work cannot be reflected by the equipment fleet
management serving these elements. The three appropriate classifications of work to
be accomplished by the construction and weight handling equipment fleet can be
described as "scheduled jobs," "immediate unscheduled jobs," and "deferrable
unscheduled work."
3-45
is understandable, the needs and related commitments and schedules of the requesting
group shall temper it. A complex system of priorities is discouraged.
3.25.7 Job Authorization. The concept of action through the chain of command
applies particularly to job authorization. Written delegation of authority (whereby
supervisory personnel are authorized to approve jobs involving construction and weight
handling equipment and operators) shall be a matter of record. The authorizing
signature on a job order or movement order means the signer is authorized to commit
the resources, is fully informed on all aspects of the job, and has approved the actions
ordered. No job shall be performed without proper authorization. When circumstances
require verbal authorization, written confirmation shall immediately follow.
3.25.8 Job Planning. The job plan is the framework for placement, operation, flow,
support, and interaction of the equipment. A job plan must be well thought out to avoid
confusion and delay and shall be structured to conserve material, time, and money.
Some of the elements of a job plan are as follows:
c. Scheduled completion time for each phase and the overall job.
3-46
e. Personnel requirements and estimated man-hours for each phase.
g. Clearance permits, special licenses, and similar items pertinent to the job.
3-47
(1) Predictable continuing requirements must exist over a considerable
period of time for stated quantities of specific types and capacities of the equipment.
d. Naval activities shall develop safety and accident prevention programs for
the safe operation of DoD motor vehicles which shall also include provisions for
mandatory use of seat belts (OPNAVINST 5100.12) and a prohibition against the use of
tobacco products in all government owned or operated vehicles (OPNAVINST 6100.2).
3-48
e. A Traffic Safety Council shall be established at each naval activity
(OPNAVINST 5100.12). Membership of the council shall include representation from
all major commands located at these stations.

CHAPTER 4. MAINTENANCE
c. Coordination. Provides for the necessary coordination with the supply and
fiscal organizations for material support and accounting service, and with other
organizations for coordination support.
d. Control. Provides procedures and standards for the control of work input,
direct labor productivity, overhead, material, downtime, and overall maintenance cost.
4-1-1
4-1.3 Levels of Maintenance
4-1.5 Maintenance at Small Activities. Where possible, small activities shall obtain
maintenance services from the host Public Works Lead Activity, another Government
activity or a commercial contractor. The using activity is responsible for funding all
maintenance. Where maintenance is of a recurring nature, interservice/intraservice
support agreements should be established with the performing Government activity.
Where the activity cannot obtain maintenance from a Government activity, or service is
not responsive, the procedure should be to procure services from commercial sources.
4-1-2
(1) Work Input and Records Section
(c) Allocates on an SRO the job operation time standards (flat rate)
to be used in measuring the repair section's productivity.
(h) Expedites work through the shop(s), including parts for vehicles
out of service awaiting parts (OSP).
(e) Performs final inspection and testing to ensure that the work has
been properly accomplished and that the equipment is safe and reliable.
4-1-3
c. Staffing. Staffing requirements can be determined from the maintenance
man-hour input standards set forth in Appendix G. These factors, applied to the miles
or hours operated by the activity can be used to develop the required staffing needed to
maintain the vehicle and equipment in a safe and serviceable condition. Applying labor
rates and material cost factors to these man-hours can develop funding requirements.
4-1-4
b. Management Action. The Transportation Division Director shall review
actual performance against planned schedules and take appropriate corrective action in
the following cases:
(3) Where activities are not turning in vehicles for inspection and service
on scheduled dates.
4-1.8.1 General Plan. The basic policies and procedures for the financial management
of the Navy are prescribed by the Comptroller of the Navy and set forth in NAVSO
P-3006, Financial Management of Resources. This system is designed to provide the
department heads of activities and their subordinates with the basic information
necessary to develop an operating plan (including a transportation plan), which shall
efficiently manage the O&M,N resources made available. Effective transportation
management depends on the development, approval, and execution of a realistic and
cost effective budget plan. In order to execute such a plan, all levels of management
require timely and frequent feedback reports on the basic elements of transportation
maintenance and operations, such as:
a. IO to inventory balance;
b. Equipment downtime;
c. Equipment utilization;
The foregoing elements must be monitored constantly to ensure that the budget plan is
being followed and the mission of providing safe, reliable, and efficient transportation
support services is being accomplished.
4-1.8.2 Budget Plan. Each transportation director shall be responsible for developing
the Transportation portion of the activity budget. Appendix G provides guidance on a
uniform system for the preparation of a transportation maintenance direct and indirect
4-1-5
labor and material budget. Figure G-1, Appendix G, is a sample worksheet, which
should be used in preparation of the budget plan. Preparation of the operations portion
of the plan should be based on historical data and projected operational requirements.
The standards presented in Appendix G, Table G-1, provide the direct labor necessary
to maintain units in a safe and reliable condition throughout their economic service life.
These standards include the necessary labor hours to lubricate, service, clean, wash,
install tires and batteries, remove, repair, and replace major/minor components,
subassemblies, parts, and accessories, except accidents. The standards do not cover
extensive one-time major repair or overhaul of a complete unit of equipment.

4-1.8.5 Inventory Objective (IO) Control. Control of inventory to IO is necessary if the
transportation director is to function within the operating plan and established
standards. Since the approved equipment IO is the basis for the transportation budget,
every effort must be taken to remove equipment from service within 15 days after
replacement equipment is received. Equipment such as forklifts and special purpose
equipment will also have an impact on budgetary requirements.

4-1.8.8 Direct Labor Productivity. Direct labor hours expended for the month are
shown on the NAVCOMPT Form 2168; however, there are no provisions for containing
standard (flat rate) hours. A work center productivity record showing standard flat rate
hours should be maintained at the shop level. A Vehicle/Equipment Direct Labor
Productivity and Downtime Record, prepared on a weekly basis, shall provide the
Maintenance Branch Head with timely, concise information for analyzing the overall
performance of each work center, highlighting areas requiring attention. The form
should include the following information: USN, SRO number, job order number, date
and time in and out, action date, start and stop time, SRO labor hours (standard and
actual), and downtime hours (OSW, OSM, OSP, and total). The information for the
report should be compiled daily and the direct labor data can be taken from the labor
record maintained on each SRO. This form, if used, should be originated in conjunction
with and attached to the copy of the SRO maintained by the cost clerk for posting of
actual hours expended on each job.
4-1.8.11 Maintenance Evaluation and Quality Control. The control of the quality of
maintenance performed by the shop forces is exercised by the Maintenance Branch
Head through section supervisors. The section supervisors are responsible for
checking the work of each mechanic through the various stages of repair and at
completion. Work completed to the supervisor’s satisfaction shall be attested to by his
signature on the SRO. The Transportation Division Director, accompanied by the
4-1-11
Maintenance Branch Head, shall make unannounced audits, at least quarterly, following
the procedures set forth below:
Findings of the audit should be documented and retained for record purposes. Problem
areas should be discussed with the appropriate levels of management to provide
corrective action.
e. Accident reports.
4-1-12
4-1.8.13 Federal Automated Statistical Tool (FAST). The Transportation Cost Report
and the Transportation Equipment Management Evaluation Summary have been
replaced with FAST. This is an automated reporting system developed to assist fleets
in meeting the mandated data reporting requirements of Executive Order 13149,
EPACT, and the SF-82. The FAST data is reported annually to GSA via the TEMC.
Once the data call is made in October of each year, the TEMC works directly with
activity personnel to ensure accurate electronic data is submitted in the format reflected
in the FAST data system. The report contains three sections: inventory, cost and
mileage data and fuel consumption by type. Each of these sections is broken down
further into subsections and reflects the actual data that must be submitted. The
official website for the program is http://fastweb.inel.gov/. Coordination with the TEMC
is required to gain password access to the FAST system.
4-1.9.2 Shop Workload. The best method for accomplishing positive direction of shop
workload is to identify and keep the following information current:
4-1-13
e. Vehicles/equipment awaiting outgoing inspection;
4-1.9.3 SRO Flow Procedures. Figure 4-1-5 illustrates recommended SRO flow
procedures. See paragraph 4-1.9.5 for details on preparing SRO.
(1) Ensure that all initial support repair parts received in Public Works are
turned over to the Supply Department for inventory control and accountability. Initial
support repair parts intended for activity stock shall not be retained in the physical
custody or records of the Supply Department once issued to the end user.
(5) Advise shop store of equipment scheduled for disposal or phase out,
and assist in identifying stocked items which should be eliminated from the shop store.
(6) In the absence of stock items, provide end use O&M,N funds to
permit procurement and delivery of repair parts required for work in progress, or for
subsequent scheduled services and repair for which job orders have been issued.
4-1-14
Figure 4-1-5. Flow Chart for SRO
4-1-15
(7) Conduct periodic follow-up of shop store parts orders (after required
delivery date has passed) to ensure that appropriate action has been taken to reduce
further delay.
(1) Provide for the timeliest method of repair parts support through the
use of available stock, system stocks, or purchase action using imprest fund or blanket
purchase authority and indefinite delivery parts contracts (IDTC) when practical.
(4) Record parts usage data for subsequent stock range and depth
adjustments.
4-1-16
(l) Description of Major Unit. Describe the vehicle or equipment unit for
which the part is applicable, such as Truck, l/2 ton, 4 x 2, 5,000#GVW.
(1) The operations dispatcher issues a form to the operator at the time of
vehicle assignment.
(2) The operator inspects each item form before, and after operation.
4-1-17
(3) The operator indicates by a check mark any item that does not
function properly. The "Remarks" space may be used for items not listed, or for
additional information concerning deficiencies indicated by a check mark.
(4) The operator turns in the form to the dispatcher at the end of each
day unless a deficiency is discovered, requiring the immediate attention of a mechanic.
(6) The work input section refers the NAVFAC 9-11240/13 (Operators
Report) to the service writer or maintenance supervisor, who determines if the
deficiencies noted require immediate attention, or if correction may be safely deferred
until the next scheduled inspection. If the correction is deferred, the form is attached to
the Service Record Card so that the deficiency may be described on the SRO when the
next scheduled or unscheduled maintenance is done.
Figure 4-1-6.
b. Shop Repair Order (SRO). The NAVFAC 11200/3A (Shop Repair Order) is
no longer available. Activities should use a computer generated SRO (i.e., PC
Transport, NFTS, etc.). Local procedures should be developed regarding SRO copy
distribution. The SRO is used to:
(1) Specifically authorize and control repair work on all types of CESE,
including authorization to requisition necessary repair parts from shop stores;
4-1-18
(4) Authorize a specific job under a Work Request (NAVCOMPT
Form 140) issued by the ordering activity;
(5) Support the Order for Supplies or Services (DD Form 1155) as source
material for the preparation of reports at small activities wholly serviced by a
commercial facility.
e. Work Input and Records Section. Upon receipt of the SRO and related
equipment, the service writer shall enter mileage or hours of operation, inspect the
equipment, and make minor adjustments. As repair requirements are identified, each
repair operation shall be entered on the SRO and standard job operation time (flat rate
hours) applied to each separate repair operation to be accomplished. The SRO is then
passed to the records section which issues a copy to the appropriate repair section
supervisor for work accomplishment. A copy is also routed to the cost clerk. The
record section retains a copy for tracking control and expediting until work is completed.
The repair section supervisor assigns work to a mechanic, reviews and approves
parts/material requirements, checks work in progress, checks work upon completion
and signs the SRO indicating the work has been satisfactorily completed, and returns
SRO to the work input and records section.
4-1-19
the labor job card and records the stop time. Delayed SROs shall be held in the cost
clerk's pending file until again activated. When work is completed, the cost clerk shall
ensure the SRO has been properly completed (actual time, compute downtime, etc.)
and then advise the Operations Branch or customer that the vehicle is ready for pick
up. The date, miles/hours, and type of service are then posted on the service record.
The original copy of the SRO is filed in the vehicle history jacket for the life of the
vehicle; a copy shall be forwarded to the Public Works Administrative Section if the
work is for a customer, and a copy is to be forwarded to the station safety office if the
work is the result of accident damage.
(2) A copy shall be forwarded with the vehicle for filing in the equipment
history jacket.
(1) The original to the other shop for work listed on the SRO to be
performed by that shop; the other shop shall perform designated repair operations,
record elapsed time, price labor and material issues, and return the original with the
equipment.
(2) A copy shall be retained by the records section when all work is
performed by the other shop, or forwarded to the cost clerk when work shall be
performed by both the transportation shop and other shop(s).
(3) A copy shall be retained by the records section until the original is
returned.
4-1-20
necessary preliminary data and turned over to the Repair Section Supervisor. The
supervisor shall list on the SRO the necessary repair operations and apply
manufacturer's flat rate standards for each operation listed; then return the SRO to the
records section for entry of final data. The SRO shall indicate the contract labor rate
and amount, contract number, order number, and necessary accounting data. The
SRO shall then be forwarded to the Contracting Officer who shall prepare an original
and six copies of the DD Form 1155; one copy shall be forwarded to the Comptroller or
Fiscal Officer, where the estimated amount shall be entered on allotment records as an
obligation. The original and four copies, together with two copies of the SRO, shall be
returned to the shop dispatcher for delivery with the equipment to the contractor. The
person delivering the equipment to the contractor shall obtain a custody receipt and
return it to the records section. Upon completion of repairs, the contractor shall return
the equipment with the original and one copy of the SRO, four copies of the DD Form
1155, and the original plus three copies of the contractor's bill. Upon completion of the
inspection and approval of the work performed by the contractor, the repair section
supervisor shall certify the bill for payment. The original of the SRO, three copies of the
DD Form 1155, and three copies of the contractor's bill shall then be forwarded to the
appropriate office for final processing and payment. One copy of the SRO, one copy of
the DD Form 1155, and one copy of the contractor's bill shall be filed in the vehicle
history jacket for the life of the vehicle.
4-1-21
Figure 4-1-8.
d. The equipment operator records the number of gallons of fuel issued to the
equipment while in his custody and enters hours operated at the end of the day. Hour
readings shall be taken from the equipment hour meter. Actual operating hours shall
be estimated for those units not equipped with hour meters.
e. At the close of business each day, the form is turned in to the operations
dispatcher, who reviews the form to ensure that the entries are valid and to take note of
any deficiencies reported. The form is then forwarded to the maintenance dispatcher
for further processing.

Operator’s Daily PM Report (Construction and Allied Equipment
Figure 4-1-9.
4-1.10.2 Operator Preventive Maintenance. Operators are the first line of defense
against equipment wear, failure, and damage. The operator must inspect the
equipment on a daily basis before, during, and after operation so defects or
malfunctions can be detected before they result in serious damage, failure, or accident.
Defects detected during these inspections, or during operation of the equipment, shall
be noted on the Operator's Inspection Guide and Trouble Report, NAVFAC 9-11240/13,
and reported as soon as operation has ceased. The operator must stop operation
immediately when a deficiency develops that renders the equipment unsafe, or could
damage the equipment.
a. Check the oil level in crankcase and fluid levels in transmission and power
steering pump;
4-1-23
c. Check the electrolyte level in battery (maintenance-free batteries should be
a visual check; DO NOT REMOVE TOP);
NOTE: When the preceding functions are performed by other than the operator, it is still the
operator's responsibility to supervise the performance, ensure that the required services have
been accomplished, and determine that the equipment appears to be in safe operating condition.
To avoid unnecessary downtime, the safety inspection shall be performed at the time of
the scheduled reliability inspection in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations. The safety inspection shall include all the items set forth in
paragraph 4.1.10.5. Any deficiencies detected shall be corrected before returning the
vehicle to an operational status. For commercial motor vehicles, documentation of an
annual safety inspection shall be in compliance with 49CFR396.17. This
documentation may be in the form of a report or a sticker or decal (e.g., NAVFAC
11200/46) that contains the following:
4-1-24
achieving the highest degree of cost effectiveness. The inspector shall authorize
repairs only after a thorough diagnosis and detection of malfunction, wear, or
deterioration has been determined. When repairs are to be accomplished by
commercial contract, only the contracting officer has the authority to authorize work,
and the request must be in writing unless deemed an emergency or specified within the
maintenance contract. Where the manufacturer specifies optional adjustments, such
as "engine tune-up," such adjustments shall be made. Adverse local conditions may
require more frequent routine maintenance inspections of a preventive nature to reduce
road failure service calls. In such cases, management shall determine the requirement
and the action shall be a policy matter directed by management in writing.
4-1-25
1995. To ensure Navy vehicle fleet managers are making appropriate plans to support
existing vehicle fleets, the following policy applies to all Navy vehicle inventory holders:
a. Brakes
(4) Check fluid level and all hydraulic brake lines for leaks.
(5) On air brake systems, inspect air brake accessories and all airlines
and air tanks for leaks and deterioration; check air brake instruments, control air valves,
trailer hose, and glad hands.
b. Lights
4-1-26
surrounding noise level, which shall be operated as needed when the machine is
moving in either direction. No employer shall permit earthmoving or compacting
equipment which has an obstructive view to the rear to be used in reverse gear unless
the equipment has an in operation a reverse signal alarm. Refer to 29 CFR 1926.602.
It has been shown that backup alarms are valuable in protecting workers and the
general public from serious injury. Backup alarms shall be installed on all Navy vehicles
with a capacity of 1 ton or higher and especially on vehicles where the driver’s view to
the rear is obstructed.
e. Steering System. Check steering devices and linkage for wear and
damage.
f. Seat Belts. Check all safety belts for wear and proper mounting.
g. Fifth Wheel and Trailer. Check trailer kingpin for wear and damage. Check
tow bars, tongue sockets, and safety chains.
h. Tires. Check all tires for damage or excessive wear. Remove and replace
tires on front wheels of buses, trucks, or truck tractors when the tires in use have less
than 2/16-inch of tread at any point on a major tread groove. Tires shall be replaced
when any tread groove pattern measures less than 1/16-inch.
j. Other Items. Check all other components required by the states in which
the vehicle is operated.
l. Exhaust Emission Controls Tampering Check. Check for the presence of,
or damage to, the catalytic converter, fuel filler inlet restraint, exhaust gas recirculation
valve, air pump, air pump drive belt, and other pollution control devices which are
readily visible. Check also for plugged or disconnected vacuum lines.
4-1-27
a. Emission Inspection and Maintenance
(1) Under the Clean Air Act, as amended, the DoD is required to comply
with state and local programs to improve air quality. All DoD components shall conform
to the state and local standards to monitor and analyze emissions from commercial
vehicles and shall utilize state and local guidelines in conducting such analysis.
(2) Section 203/205 of the Clean Air Act also prohibits DoD personnel or
contractors from removing or rendering inoperative any emission control device or
element of design on automotive vehicles operated within the United States. The civil
penalty for violation of this provision is $2,500 per vehicle. Violations of the unleaded
fuels regulations can result in penalties of up to $10,000 per violation. When
performing corrective adjustments and repair actions or tune-ups, engine settings shall
not be accomplished outside of the manufacturer's recommended specifications, nor
shall pollution control related equipment, such as the catalytic converter, exhaust gas
recirculation valve, or heated air intake system, be removed or rendered inoperative.
4-1-28
in accordance with the safety standards prescribed in RMA publications. These
publications are available from the Rubber Manufacturers Association Inc., 1400 K
Street NW., Washington, DC 20005.
b. Tire Retreading Program. The use of retread tires can produce substantial
reduction in operating expenses of vehicles and equipment. Retreading services are
available in most areas under the prevailing GSA Federal Supply Schedule (FSG-26).
In areas where GSA schedules are not available for retreading services, it is
recommended that a contract be awarded for such service under competitive bidding
procedures. Retreading is a labor-intensive workmanship-oriented process and must
be monitored closely and frequently. The following procedures shall be followed in
assuring quality retreads.
(a) Before Retreading. Select premium tires for retreading that have
been well maintained during operation and have been pulled for retreading when tread
depth is not less that 2/16 of an inch deep on front-mounted tires and not less than 2/32
of an inch on all other tires. Casings, as furnished to the contractor, shall be identified
as Navy-owned and shall be further inspected by the contractor in accordance with
paragraph 3.3 of ZZ-T-441H before acceptance for retreading.
4-1-29
provided in the specification for compliance with prescribed contract requirements. A
representative of the user activity should establish the inspection procedure with the
Contracting Officer in order that quality checks of the contractor’s plant can be
arranged. A visit to the retreading plant to observe craftsmanship, process controls,
condition of processing equipment, quality of the rubber used, and cleanliness of the
shop provides the necessary confidence level for quality assurance. When the
retreaded tires are returned to the user, the activity's representative who has become
familiar with the contractor's retreading process should inspect each tire. Retreaded
tires found to be defective should be returned to the contractor (at the contractor's
expense) for corrective action. Activity inspections shall verify that the newly delivered
retreaded tire is on the original Navy casing. Also, additional visual inspections are to
be performed as outlined in Tables II and III of Specification ZZ-T-441H, to determine
any defective material used, poor processing, or poor workmanship.
4-1.11.1 General. Preventive maintenance (PM) principles and general procedures set
forth in paragraphs 4-1.9 through 4-1.13 are equally applicable to all Navy-
owned/leased (in excess of 180 days) construction equipment. Maintenance of short-
term rental equipment is specifically addressed in paragraph 2.9.10 of this manual.
(See the NAVFAC P-307 for weight handling equipment.) Maintenance inspections and
services shall be performed as prescribed by the manufacturer in the maintenance
manual provided with the equipment and at the recommended frequencies. The
frequencies shall generally be based on hours of operation as recorded on an hour
meter, rather than fixed time intervals, except for the daily services performed by the
operator.
4-1-30
4-1.11.2 Operator's Daily Inspection. All equipment shall be given a daily inspection
and service by the assigned operator before, during, and after operation. The operator
shall complete this daily requirement in accordance with the procedures set forth in
paragraph 4-1.9.7 and NAVFAC 11260/4, performing all inspections, services, and
adjustments specified. The Transportation Director shall augment these procedures
with any additional daily services to be performed by the operator, as recommended by
the manufacturer; such instructions shall be explicit and in writing. The operator shall
turn in a completed NAVFAC 11260/4 (operators report) to the equipment dispatcher or
his supervisor daily. It shall be the operator's responsibility to ensure that the
equipment is safe and reliable. The operator shall stop the equipment immediately

percent (based on type of equipment being tested) with a tolerance of +5%/-0% of the
manufacturer’s rated capacity. Outriggers or stabilizers (if so equipped) shall be fully
deployed on a firm level surface prior to lifting test loads or working loads. Unless
restricted by the manufacturer, the following test loads shall be used as a minimum:
The weight of all handling gear shall be included as part of the test load. The reference
material listed in paragraph 4-1.11.5.b shall be used to establish test procedures for the
particular type (EC) of equipment being tested, including the load testing of hydraulically
and electrically operated tail-gates used for lifting.

Operators of aerial devices that are rated for use as an insulated device must know the
rated line voltage of energized power lines in order not to exceed the insulation test
voltage of their aerial device. Insulation testing equipment shall meet the requirements
of American National Standard Institute Techniques for Dielectric Tests, ANSI/IEEE
standards and American National Standard Institute Techniques for Switching Impulse
Testing, ANSI/IEEE standards. A test procedure, which is approved by the aerial
4-1-33
device manufacturer or an equivalent entity, shall be considered an acceptable test for
certification.
4-1-34
(2) ANSI A92.2, Vehicle-Mounted Elevating and Rotating Aerial Device;
a. General. All fire department aerial devices shall be inspected and tested in
accordance with the current edition of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)
1914 Standard for "Testing Fire Department Aerial Devices." The NFPA 1914
specifies minimum inspection and testing requirements and shall be used to
supplement, not to replace or modify, any instructions recommended by the aerial
device manufacturer. Aerial devices shall include fire apparatus equipped with aerial
ladders, elevating platforms, and water towers designed to position personnel, handle
materials and/or discharge water as specified in NFPA 1901, Standard on Automotive
Fire Apparatus.

Minutes.
d. Records and Reports. The aerial devices' service records shall always be
checked for any reports that may indicate defective conditions. A report form, which
shall include, as a minimum, the information required by NFPA 1914, shall be
completed for each inspection/test performed and signed by the person responsible for
the test. All inspection and test records shall be maintained in the equipment history
record file for the respective aerial device. A copy of all test report forms shall be
forwarded to the Director of Navy Fire and Emergency Services.
4-1.12 Corrosion Prevention. Vehicles and equipment at many shore activities are
subject to severe corrosion due to atmospheric conditions or the contact of salt from ice
removal operations. Corrosion damage causes excessive maintenance expenditures to
correct the damage, or significantly reduces the economic service life of the vehicles
and equipment. Corrosion can be economically controlled by the proper application of
protective coatings and adequate maintenance of these coatings. Vehicle and
equipment manufacturers have been responsive in applying corrosion treatment to
vehicles at the factory. Manufacturers' extended warranties and state-of-the-art
procedures minimize the need for additional corrosion protection. All new vehicles
4-1-36
should be examined to determine if corrosion treatment has been applied. If corrosion
treatment is needed, it usually is more economical to utilize commercial sources as they
are properly equipped and shall provide warranty service.

for equipment not covered by the foregoing shall be developed locally and approved in
writing by the Transportation Division Director.
4-1.14.1 General Criteria. Standard criteria for transportation shop layouts have been
developed by COMNAVFACENGCOM. These standard criteria shall be used as
guidelines in developing the most economical and efficient shop configuration. New
construction shall combine the maintenance and operations functions for automotive,
construction, weight handling, and railway equipment. Maximum accessibility of
support areas to production bays, centralized administrative areas, and drive-through
general repair bays that eliminate wasteful traffic aisles are typical of improved shop
layout features. Activities planning new or modified facilities shall obtain assistance
from the appropriate EFD/TEMC.

reliability and, in turn, reduces the mechanic's workload. Inspectors may perform minor
repair work that pertains to inspection procedures only. Inspectors shall immediately
notify the Maintenance Supervisor when suspected equipment abuse or recurring
failures are discovered.
e. Cost Control Clerk. The Cost Control Clerk controls the Preventive
Maintenance Program as directed by the Maintenance Supervisor. They should be a
senior mechanic, knowledgeable in their rating and possess proficient administrative
skills. They personally supervise the Preventive Maintenance Clerk and the Direct
Turnover Clerk.
g. Direct Turnover Clerk. The DTO Clerk maintains the maintenance shop's
repair parts status and accountability records and is the liaison between the Supply
Office and the shop. All requisitions for Not In Stock (NIS) and Not Carried (NC)
material must pass through the DTO Clerk, who maintains the Direct Turnover (DTO)
Log and the Repair Parts Summary Sheets. The DTO Clerk is responsible for the DTO
parts and storage bins, and maintains the deadline file and the deadline status board.
4-2-2
services are performed by trained personnel (paragraphs (a) and (b) below).
Organization maintenance consists of proper equipment operation, safety and
serviceability inspections, lubrications, minor adjustments, and services. Usually,
activities accomplishing only organizational maintenance are provided with "O" level
repair parts support as described in Chapter 5, paragraph 5.3.2.
NOTE: Amphibious Construction Battalions (PHIBCB) maintenance data for the SLWT (Side-
Loadable Warping Tug), CSP (Causeway Section, Powered), and CSNP (Causeway Section,
Nonpowered), ELCAS(M) (Elevated Causeway Modular) and ABLTS (Amphibious Bulk Liquid
Transfer System) shall be performed and reported under 3M system, DoD Equipment Maintenance
Program. Maintenance data for the ELCASNL (Elevated Causeway Navy Lighterage) and ABFHS
(Amphibious Buoyant Fuel Hose System) remains reportable under this publication.
4-2-3
4-2.3 Preventive Maintenance
Equipment should be grouped so that units that normally work together are scheduled
for PM together; for example, semi trailers with truck tractors, and scrapers with
tractors. Units should initially use 40 PM groups. After the system is established and
operating, the Maintenance Supervisor should review its effectiveness and reduce time
intervals if necessary.
4-2-4
c. Preventive Maintenance Due Date Schedule. A Preventive Maintenance
Due Date Schedule (Table 4-2-1) shall be established annually by the PM Clerk
because the schedules are based on the workdays in each calendar year. An NMCB
PM schedule is set up using Operations (S3) Workday/Deployment schedule. The
workdays on the schedule must correspond to the unit's actual workdays; for example,
if you work a 6-day week, enter 6 days and omit holidays. The PM groups are
numbered vertically down the first column. Table 4-2-1 depicts the standard 40 PM
group concept. The dates of workdays in January are then listed consecutively in the
January column. After January's last workday is entered, start February's workdays in
the February column. At completion, the schedule shows each workday that each PM
group is due for inspection. For example, Table 4-2-1 shows that PM group 5 is due on
January 25, March 25, May 20, July 17, September 12, and November 7.
Table 4-2-1.
4-2-5
d. Preventive Maintenance Record Cards. A Vehicle/Construction
Equipment Preventive Maintenance Record Card, NAVFAC 11240/6 (Figure 4-2-2)
shall be accurately maintained for each item of assigned equipment. PM record cards
contain the vehicle's preventive maintenance history in chronological order and
necessary information to assist the PM Clerk to prepare Equipment Repair Orders
(ERO). PM cards shall be maintained in PM group sequence in a separate file.
Equipment assigned to more than one PM group shall have dummy PM record cards
filed in the extra PM group(s). The PM Clerk shall record the following information on
the PM record card from the completed preventive maintenance EROs: type of PM
service performed, date it was performed, cumulative miles/hours. Engine oil changes
or filter changes shall be indicated by entering "O/C" or "F/C." PM record cards shall be
returned to the Equipment History Jacket when the vehicle is transferred. The PM
record cards are marked with a red tag to alert the PM clerk that attachments are listed
on the back and need servicing.
NOTE: CESE Attachments. The PM record cards on CESE that have Attachments are marked with
a red tag to alert the PM Clerk that Attachments are listed on the back and require servicing.
NOTE: To fulfill an operational commitment, controlled parts interchange may be authorized only
by the Maintenance Supervisor, provided all parts are replaced using the nonserviceable item,
4-2-6
replacements are promptly ordered, and all parts and labor cost related to the interchange are
charged to the equipment on which the parts failed. The ERO authorizing installation of the new
part on the deadline equipment must be annotated under work description "Replacement for a
cannibalized part, no cost."

b. ERO Design. The Equipment Repair Order form and Continuation Sheet
are designed as a five-part multicolored snap set. The five ERO sheets are colored
white ERO (W), blue ERO (B), green ERO (G), yellow ERO (Y), and pink ERO (P). The
ERO (G) copy is for use by the Construction Equipment Department (CED) and is not
currently required by the NCF and SOU. The Continuation Sheets are colored the
same as the ERO and follow the same flow pattern.
e. Job Control Number. The Job Control Number (JCN) consists of fourteen
characters unbroken by hyphen or space. The first six characters are extracted from
Block 3 of the ERO form (UIC and the appropriate Alpha service code prefix). The last
eight characters are known as the Job Sequence Number and are extracted from the
ERO Number block (upper right corner) of the ERO. This number is entered in Blocks
13, 14, and 15 of the NAVSUP Form 1250-1, as illustrated in Figure 4-2-4. Additional
information can be found in Chapter 5, paragraph 5.6.2.

Example Situation: A vehicle has unusual engine noise during warm-up and is reported
to the Dispatcher by returning the Hard Card. The Dispatcher has the vehicle parked
on the shop working line and delivers the Hard Card to the PM clerk at 0730 on 10
October 1996. The Inspector workload was responsible for a 6-hour delay in starting
inspection (1330). Initial inspection of the engine indicated a broken valve in No. 2
cylinder; a check at the parts storeroom indicated that the valves were not in stock
(NIS). Further teardown and repair was delayed because of the shop workload. Upon
receipt of the new valve at the parts storeroom (1100 hours on 17 October) and upon
final teardown and removal of the head, it was found that the piston had been broken
when the valve dropped into the cylinder. The piston was also NIS, so vehicle repairs
were again delayed while waiting for parts. The necessary parts were received at 0900
on 28 October, and repairs were completed without further incidents.
Block Entry
*27/28 Equipment Available. Actual time (0730) and Julian Date (96283 for 10 October
1996). The Dispatcher notified the PM Clerk that the equipment was available to
the shop.
*29/30 Inspection Start. Time (1330) and Julian Date (96283). The actual vehicle
inspection was started.
4-2-10
46/47 Shop Start. Actual time (1400) and Julian Date (96283). Mechanic started work
on equipment. If .5 is entered in Block 14 for inspection time, actual work cannot
start prior to that amount of time being expended. Example: Block 29 time
1315; Block 14 inspection hours 1.0; work cannot start prior to 1415.
32/33 Stop for Parts. Mechanic stopped work at 1415 on 96283 because parts were
not available. Use only when all work on equipment must stop due to lack of
parts/material.
34/35 Parts Available. At 1100 on 17 October (96290) the needed repair parts were
available at the parts storeroom. Therefore, delay is no longer attributable to
lack of parts (down for supplies) ((DFS)). Repairs should commence as soon as
possible.
36/37 Stop for Parts. Mechanic stopped work at 1600 on 96290 because parts were
again not available. Use only when all work on equipment must stop due to lack
of parts/material for second time.
38/39 Parts Available. At 0900 on 28 October (96301) the repair parts were available
at the parts storeroom and work commenced immediately.
4-2-11
Property Record, DD Form 1342, and Equipment Attachment Registration Records,
NAVFAC Form 6-11200/45, if applicable. The maintenance history includes the
completed PM Record Cards, NAVFAC Form 11240/6, and blue copies, ERO (B), of
completed Equipment Repair Orders or computer-generated equivalent. When a
vehicle is transferred, the current PM Record Card shall be removed from the PM group
file and returned to the History Jacket. The jacket shall then be either hand carried or
forwarded by certified mail to the receiving custodian. When a vehicle is transferred to
a Property Disposal Office (PDO), the History Jacket shall accompany it. All units that
receive equipment by direct delivery from the manufacturer are required to establish the
initial Equipment History Jacket.
h. Equipment Repair Order (ERO) Work Sheet. The ERO work sheet is a
single copy sheet and is used to document repair parts used.
4-2-12
(3) Equipment Availability. Equipment availability is the percentage
that shows the time the equipment is available to be dispatched as compared to
downtime. Equipment downtime is figured on a 24-hour, 7-day-week basis. Equipment
availability of a unit at 90 percent is considered excellent, 85 percent is good, 80
percent is fair, and 75 percent is poor. Equipment with a fair availability record should
be analyzed to determine the cause, such as overwork or abuse, supply support, or
shortage of mechanics.
If the vehicle is returned to the shop too soon after it has been worked on,
compare the completion date of the first ERO with the available date of the next ERO
when the vehicle is returned to the shop. If the time between returns is short, compare
the meter reading (how much was the vehicle used).
If vehicles are in for interim repairs and come back in a few days for a PM,
the shop is doing unnecessary work. If a vehicle enters the shop for an interim repair
within 5 working days of a scheduled PM due date, the PM should be performed. This
saves inspection time and keeps the shop from processing an additional ERO. This
also increases equipment availability.
4-2-13
(2) Mechanics Labor Scheduling Efficiency. The ERO can be used to
determine how efficiently the mechanics labor is being managed by using the following
method:
(a) Compare actual labor hours used with labor hours available.
Labor hours available can be computed by taking the average number of floor
mechanics and inspectors multiplied by their average hours worked per month. For this
comparison, count only those people whose time should be entered on the EROs and
use only actual working time.
(b) Compare hours available with the total actual labor hours
reported on the month's EROs. Obviously, all of the worker's time is not going to be
reported; however, most should have been reported.
(a) Is an ERO used for all work in the equipment repair shop?
(Not required if repair can be done in less than one hour with no
repair parts.)
4-2-14
(d) Are formal ordering documents used to purchase spare
parts?
4-2-15
c. Equipment Condition Codes. The appearance of CESE is a quick
indicator of the care it receives. Clean equipment is more likely to be well cared for and
mechanical problems easier to identify. The condition of CESE can be categorized with
condition codes. Coding shall be in accordance with DoD Regulation 4160.21, Defense
Disposal Manual, chapter 1, and NAVCOMPT Manual, Activity Unit Identification Code,
section 036206. The code is composed of two characters: (1) an alpha Supply
Condition Code, and (2) an alpha numeric Disposal Condition Code. The first position
determines serviceability and is coded with an "A," "F," "G," or "S." The second position
determines relative condition or degree of serviceability and is coded with "1" thru "6"
for serviceability Code "A;" with a "7" thru "9" for serviceability Code "F" or "G;" and an
"X" or "S" for serviceability Code "S." Refer to Appendix I for description of condition
codes.
The following is a complete list of the possible codes with a brief description.
Code Description
A1 Serviceable/Unused-Good
A2 Serviceable/Unused-Fair
A3 Serviceable/Unused-Poor
A4 Serviceable/Used-Good
A5 Serviceable/Used-Fair
A6 Serviceable/Used-Poor
F7 Unserviceable Repairable/Repairs Required-Good
F8 Unserviceable Repairable/Repairs Required-Fair
F9 Unserviceable Repairable/Repairs Required-Poor
G7 Unserviceable Incomplete/Repairs Required-Good

all repair parts bought, manufactured or used from other equipment has been entered
on worksheet. (All work to be deferred will be initialed by the Maintenance Supervisor).
If unit is to be deadlined, ensure blocks 40 and 41 are completed. Then recount all
parts numbers, prices and quantities for repair parts and petroleum used, on ERO
worksheet. Forward completed paperwork package to Final Inspector and unit to the
final inspection line.
NOTE: If repair parts required are NC/NIS and all efforts and means available have been expended, fill in
“stop for parts” section of ERO and immediately hand-carry completed ERO package containing the
NC/NIS NAVSUP Form 1250/1-2s for the part or parts that deadlined the equipment to the Maintenance
Supervisor. Move unit to deadline area and preserve for deadline in accordance with
COMSECONDNCB/COMTHIRDNCB Instruction 11200.1 series.
NOTE (1): At this time, the Final Inspector will enter total time for the final inspection in block 15 of green
copy of ERO only. Forward package to Cost Control.
NOTE (2): For SAMMS, EM pass ERO package to Preventive Maintenance Clerk for final print.
NOTE: As soon as deadlined unit’s ERO package arrives from Shop Supervisor, ensure that unit cannot
return to service. If not, immediately sign NC/NIS NAVSUP Form 1250-1/-2s and assign priority in block
3. Forward complete package to DTO/Cost Control Clerk. Time elapsed for NAVSUP Form 1250-1/-2
processing and turning into repair parts for ordering should not exceed one hour from time entered to
“stop for parts” block on deadlined ERO. If unit to be deadlined has 01 or 02 ERO (PM), defer the item
that disabled the unit and immediately open an 04 (interim repair) ERO, complete all blocks except 15, 16,
25, 75, and 76. Enter the item that disabled the unit in block 63.
STEP 10: DIRECT TURNOVER/COST CONTROL CLERK. Will take all signed (but
not processed NC/NIS) DTO chits and log them in, see step 3 of DTO Flow Chart. (At
this time, have PM record clerk log ERO in (date and time) and record all PM
information on PM Record Card and close out in the computer). Cost Control Clerk will
continue with blocks 13, 15, 16, and 25. See paragraph 3301 for block-by-block
instructions on filling in all blocks of ERO. On the back of ERO (W) and continuation
(W) circle each functional code from block 45 only, on work that was actually
completed. Pass to Maintenance Supervisor for final review. If units are deadlined,
see Step 10 Note.
4-2-18
NOTE: When NC/NIS NAVSUP Form 1250-1/-2 and ERO package is received from Maintenance
Supervisor for unit to be deadlined, immediately check to see if the ERO is a PM. If it is, immediately
close out the PM ERO and open an 04 (interim). Ensure that NAVSUP Form 1250-1/-2 contains the 04
ERO number in blocks 14 and 15, and not the PM ERO number. When this is done, log the NAVSUP
Form 1250-1/-2 in the DTO Log, and then check the DTO procedures (flow chart), Figure 5-3 for details.
Ensure that all blocks, except 15, 16, 25, 75, and 76 on ERO are completed. Ensure “stop for parts” time
and dates (blocks 32 and 33) are completed and accurate. Enter equipment on deadline status board.

CHAPTER 5. EQUIPMENT SUPPORT
FOR NAVAL CONSTRUCTION FORCE AND
SPECIAL OPERATING UNITS
NOTE: This chapter applies only to the Naval Construction Force and Special Operating Units.
5.1.1 Supply Support. The Navy Supply System is tasked to support all Naval
Forces. The Supply System's basic functions include identification of requirements;
procurement to meet demands; storage, stocking, and maintenance of inventory;
requisitioning, issue, and shipment of needed items; and disposition of excess or
unusable assets. The Supply System uses Inventory Managers to centralize
procurement and management of material. These Inventory Managers ensure that
there is proper balance between requirements and National Stock Number (NSN)
material assets. The Inventory Manager for each NSN can be identified by cognizance
symbols which precede the stock number. For example, NAVFACENGCOM manages
all "2C" cognizance equipment, such as Civil Engineer Support Equipment (CESE), and
ISO Containers.
5.1.3 Coordination with Unit Supply. Maintenance personnel expect repair parts to
be available when requested. However, Supply cannot satisfactorily perform its support
mission without coordination and cooperation between Maintenance and Supply.
Maintenance personnel should understand the "repair" parts supply system and the
Maintenance Supervisor should develop an information exchange. At least one
mechanic should be assigned to the repair parts storeroom to provide service at the
parts counter. The mechanic can also assist storeroom personnel to identify unknown
items and provide parts interchangeability data. The Maintenance Supervisor should
designate one person, normally the Cost Control Clerk, to provide liaison with supply to
check requisition status. Consolidated Seabee Allowance Lists (COSAL) are designed
5-1
to provide support for new or like new equipment for 60 days or 1200 hours. The
Maintenance Supervisor must help determine requirements for additional repair parts.
5.2.1 Purpose. The TOA identifies and quantifies the basic personnel, material, and
equipment for the performance of the unit's mission(s) in contingency, wartime, and
disaster recovery operations. The TOA is designed to sustain construction operations
for 60 days without resupply, except that ammunition is limited to 15 days, subsistence
rations are limited to five days, and fuel limit is three days.
5.2.2 Authority and Responsibility. Commands with authority and responsibility for
TOAs are as follows:
a. The Chief of Naval Operations (CNO OP-44) formulates the doctrine and
policy for all Naval Construction Force (NCF) units and approves all NCF Tables of
Allowance and any changes that impact on the unit's mission.
5.2.3 General TOA Information. The NCF Tables of Allowance provide personnel,
material, and equipment to enable the unit to carry out operational requirements. Since
the unit is expected to build any number of different facilities in any climatic condition,
judicious selection of items is necessary to prevent the allowance from reaching
excessive proportions. A compromise must be reached that balances bulk against
capability. The NCF Tables of Allowance represent the best selection to provide
general construction capability, but they are not all inclusive. They are not, nor should
they be, capable of meeting every conceivable operational requirement. When an
assigned project requires tools or equipment in excess of the unit's capability, the
allowance is supplemented by augmentation. Augment tools, equipment, and
personnel may come from the Naval Construction Force Support Unit (NCFSU), or may
be provided by the responsible fleet or operational commander.
5.2.4 TOA Organization. Individual line items of material and equipment are
identified by stock number: either National Stock Number (NSN) or Navy Item Control
Number (NICN). Stock numbers for Civil Engineer Support Equipment (CESE) are
5-2
listed within the Equipment Codes (EC). Other stock numbers are assembled within
functional Assemblies. Assemblies are grouped functionally into either Groups or
Facilities. Groups and Facilities are segregated by major category or material into
Sections, and by purpose into Echelons, within the NCF Tables of Allowance and the
Advanced Base Functional Component (ABFC) System components.
5-3
(1) Mission Capability Improvement. Shall the proposed change
improve the capability to perform assigned mission? Quantitative estimates of increases
in construction quality, productivity, or readiness shall be made. Proposed changes
which result from changes in a unit's mission shall be specifically identified.
5.2.7 National Stock Number (NSN) Breakdown of Sets, Kits, Outfits (SKO).
Within the NCF Tables of Allowance there could be several hundred NSNs listed under
a single SKO NSN. Each of these NSNs may contain several items not individually
listed or cataloged in the TOA. For example: a mechanic's phillips screwdriver set,
NSN 5120-00-104-0005, consists of five separate items. For inventory and resupply,
NFELC maintains and distributes an inventory aid catalog entitled National Stock
Number Breakdown of Sets, Kits, and Outfits Inventory Aid Catalog. This SKO catalog
provides the custodian with a pictorial display of a set, kit, or outfit with the means to
identify all included items. Selecting only those missing items should preclude the
purchase of complete sets when only one or two items are needed.
5.2.8 Master Packing Plan (MPP). The MPP is a general guide for the standardized
pack up of NCF TOA in ISO storage and shipping containers. Each TOA pack up has
some unique variances due to different dimensions of materials, deferred items, or
availability of suitable substitutes. The Master Packing Plan organizes the materials
within the various echelons. Facility/Group components are packed together in bulk
containers. Configured containers with cabinetry store materials together within
common groups and assemblies such as the Central Store Room and the Armory.
Other specialized containers are Half-Heights for drums of Petroleum, Oils, and
Lubricants (POL) and Flat Racks for lumber and pipe. Special handling of hazardous
and shelf life materials is required and deferred from the initial pack ups until the TOA is
readied for mobilization. The location system in the MPP identifies each line item within
the TOA (NSN and quantity) by container and position inside the container, and
provides designated locations for deferred and short materials.
5-4
5.3 Repair Parts Support
5.3.1 Support Criteria. In the NCF a wide range of CESE is used. Because of the
different design characteristics of each of these CESE items, different repair parts are
required to meet the support requirements. The NCF initial outfitting repair parts is
designed to support new or like-new CESE for the first 1,200 construction hours and is
computed as two 10-hour shifts, seven days per week, for the first 60 days of
deployment.
b. Special Operating Units (SOU) New Receipts. SOUs shall receive initial
parts support for new receipts upon submission of the DD Form 1342, DoD Property
Record, to NFELC Code 1575. Stock replenishment thereafter is the user’s
responsibility.
5.3.2 Levels of Support. Each repair part listed on an APL is assigned a three-digit
maintenance code that identifies one of four levels of support: "O," "G," "H," or "D."
The first digit is the lowest maintenance level authorized to remove the item. The
second digit indicates the lowest maintenance level authorized to repair the item. The
third digit indicates the lowest maintenance level authorized to dispose of the item.
5-5
5.3.3 COSAL Arrangement. Each COSAL is arranged and divided into three
separate parts.
The Part II MAJOR SEQUENCE is based on the last four digits (950004121) of
the APL identification number (low to high), which are commonly referred to as the APL
number. Normally, one APL number covers the complete vehicle. Exceptions are
vehicles such as truck-mounted water distributors (one APL for the truck and another
APL for the distributor), and mobile cranes (one APL for the carrier and another APL for
the crane).
The Part II MINOR SEQUENCE is based on the preceding three digits, such as
950064121 for the fuel system group items. A list of groups covered in each APL is
displayed on the first page of each APL, such as 950064121. The first two digits of the
APL number (950044121) are consistent in Naval Construction Force COSALs because
they identify the APL as NCF versus shipboard.
c. Part III. Stock Number Sequence List. Part III consists of a Stock Number
Sequence List (SNSL) and two repair part cross reference lists. The SNSL lists the
COSAL provided repair parts arranged in National Item Identification Number (NIIN)
sequence in the COSAL, to support a specified level of maintenance. The SNSL also
lists the APL numbers each part is stocked for, the unit price, and the total COSAL
quantity. The first cross referenced list is the manufacturer's part number to the NSN.
The second list is NSN, in NIIN sequence to part number. If the NIIN is not included in
the COSAL, it shall not be on these lists.
5.3.4 Repair Parts. Two basic types of repair parts are "parts peculiar," and "parts
common."

Modifier 97 kits) to reduce overstocking that could occur if these items were carried
within separate Repair Parts Peculiar Allowance Parts Lists. The Mod 96 and Mod 97
kits are designed to supplement Repair Parts Peculiar for the first 60 days or 1,200
construction hours of a contingency operation. The Mod 97 kits are packaged as
Modular Assemblies. A Mod 97 kit consists of 29 different kits, Mod 96 kit consists of
19 different kits, each of which has been assigned an individual APL number. This
allows Repair Parts Common Assemblies to be printed in the same COSAL format and
arrangement as Mod 98 kits. Also, illustrated NFELC catalogs are provided called
NAVSUP Modifier Code 96 and 97 Catalogs.
5-7
5.4.3 Completion of NAVSUP Form 1220-2. Prepare an original and one copy (more
if required by Command) for each report submitted. Multiple errors may be listed on
one form if they relate to the same APL and component identification group. Retain
one copy for file and submit the original to NFELC. Most reported problems require
extensive research; therefore, the originator should include all available information
and attach any supporting documentation; for example, VIN, line setting tickets,
component model numbers/codes. The following detailed instructions are a ready
reference.
Block Entry
1 From: Originating unit To: NFELC Code 1574 Via: Use only if required
by the Command.
2 Date: Date the report was prepared. Serial Number: Sequential number
assigned by originator to track and identify the NAVSUP Form 1220-2.
5 National Stock Number (NSN) or CAGE and Part Number: Stock number
or code and part number of item affected by the change. If a request is
made for the replacement of one item with another, enter the item to be
deleted first, followed by the item recommended as the replacement.
5-8
15 First Endorsement: Leave blank. This block shall be used by NFELC to
indicate to the submitter what action has been taken.
NOTE: Manufacturers identify vehicle component parts with unit/division codes. Forward copies
of line set tickets, bill of materials, calibration codes, service parts identification labels,
certification labels, or any parts identification information associated with a piece of equipment,
with the NAVSUP Form 1220-2.
5.5.2 NFELC Responsibilities. The NFELC directs and administers the technical
manual support program for NCF Units and requires equipment manufacturers to
furnish the appropriate TMs with every purchase. These TMs can be military (U.S.
Army, USMC, USAF), Commercial (standard manufacturers), or modified Commercial
(standard manufacturers TMs modified to meet specific requirements).
5.5.4 Manual Maintenance. All NCF units shall maintain all TMs listed in their
COSAL. Inventory control of TMs must be maintained through periodic inventories and
checkout procedures because replacement manuals for older equipment are usually
hard to obtain. Manuals in excess of COSAL quantities must be returned to NNFELC
Hueneme marked for "M3 Stock." If the COSAL lists incorrect TMs or does not list all
the required TMs, submit a NAVSUP Form 1220-2 to NFELC in accordance with
paragraph 5.4.3. Technical Manuals that are lost, damaged, worn out, or otherwise
unserviceable shall be replaced by submission of funded requisitions to NNFELC Port
Hueneme. The requisitions shall include the TM stock numbers from the COSAL. If
not
5-9
available all TM identification and equipment identification that includes USN number,
make, model, year of manufacture, serial numbers, and original procurement contract
number, shall be provided.
Note: Use typewriter or ballpoint pen and press hard to insure legibility for all copies.
5-10
5.6.2 Completion of NAVSUP Form 1250-1. The NAVSUP Form 1250-1 shall be
prepared, processed, and transmitted in accordance with NAVSUP P-485 and
directives such as the Seabee Supply Manual, 4400.3. The forms shall be prepared
with either a ballpoint pen or typewriter. Confusion between the numeral zero and the
letter O shall be avoided by using the communication 0 (or virgule) for zero. A detailed
explanation of each of the form's data blocks that pertain to maintenance personnel is
listed below. Blocks marked with an asterisk (*) must be completed by maintenance
personnel before submitting the form to Supply.
Block Entry
*1 Material Request Date. Enter the Julian date that the form is submitted to
Supply.
*2 Department No. Enter the internal control number assigned to each form
submitted to Supply for procurement of material.
*4 Required Delivery Date (RDD). Enter the Julian date that delivery of the
material is required. Entered only when the required item is not in stock
(NIS) or not carried (NC) and the priority authorized will not provide timely
delivery.
5-11
Block Entry
13 Unit Identification Code (UIC). Prefix the UIC by the appropriate service
designator code: "R" for Pacific, "V" for Atlantic, and "N" for other units.
15 Job Sequence Number (JSN). The JSN is a four-digit numeric. When the
material being documented is not identified to a specific ERO, such as
Pre-Expended Bin (PEB), and SHOP USE material, the JSN block shall
be filled with zeros. When JSN "0000" is used, print "PEB" or "SHOP
USE," as applicable in Remarks Block 29. For maintenance and repair of
specific CESE items, each ERO shall be given a JSN sequentially
assigned between the numbers 0001 and 9999.
*16 Enter "Z100000" except for PEB or SHOP USE material, for which
"X000000" is entered.
5-12
five-digit CAGE Code, if known, shall be entered in Block 21 and the first
position of Block 22. If the CAGE Code is not known and cannot be
determined, Block 21 and the first position of Block 22 shall be left blank.
When a part number exceeds ten digits, an asterisk (*) shall be entered in
the first position of Block 21 and a corresponding asterisk shall be entered
in data Block 29 preceding the CAGE/part number.
When a part number exceeds ten digits, an asterisk (*) shall be entered in
the first position of Block 21 and a corresponding asterisk shall be entered

APL. Enter additional information pertinent to the requested item. For
parts without an NSN, enter the manufacturer's five-character CAGE
code, part number, technical manual title and publication number, page
number, figure number, and item number.
E Supply entry.
5-13
5.6.3 Nonavailability of Parts. If the required part is not immediately available,
Supply shall annotate the NAVSUP Form 1250-1 with data that concerns like items on
order but not received, mark the form NIS (Not In Stock) or NC (Not Carried) and return
the form to the mechanic. The Maintenance Supervisor or higher authority shall assign
priority and authorize the part to be ordered. Cost Control shall assign a department
order number for each part ordered, starting with the number 0001, and forward the
copies back to Supply for ordering. Parts on order are called "parts pending" if they
were ordered to replenish stock. If parts were ordered for a specific USN number of
CESE, they are called "direct turnover" (DTO) parts.
All NAVSUP Forms 1250-1 for NIS or NC material must pass to the Cost
Control/DTO Clerk who enters an order number in Block 2 of the form, annotates the
Direct Turnover (DTO) Log, annotates the Repair Part Summary Sheet, and then
submits the form to the unit Supply.
The Cost Control/DTO Clerk enters the requisition number on the DTO Log and
the Summary Sheet, and files the yellow copy with the correct Summary Sheet. The
Cost Control/DTO Clerk shall maintain accountability and status of all parts on order by
periodically requesting status from Supply. When Supply receives the ordered repair
part, a copy of the NAVSUP Form 1250-1 is forwarded to the Cost Control/DTO Clerk
who must then determine if the part is still required.
The part is stored in the DTO bin, and the pink (P) copy of the form is filed with
the appropriate Summary Sheet. The Summary Sheet can now be used as a record to
show what parts were stored in the DTO bins.
5-14
When the part is issued, line through the received date (column 6) with a yellow
marker pen to show that the part is no longer in the bin. If the received part is for a
deadlined piece of equipment, notify the Maintenance Supervisor who decides if
enough parts are available to restart work on the vehicle.
Each time an Equipment Repair Order (ERO) is issued, the Cost Control/DTO
Clerk checks the Repair Parts Summary Sheets to determine if parts are stored in the
DTO bin for the USN number. If so, the Cost Control/DTO Clerk attaches a note to the
ERO to alert the Shop Supervisor who shall ensure that the parts are either used or
returned to Supply. The DTO bin for the PM group that was worked through the shop
yesterday should be empty today, because all parts should have been used or returned
to Supply, unless all the required vehicle parts have not been received.
5.7.2 Direct Turnover Status Keeping Records. Each department that orders
material is required to maintain records to manage and control requisitions. This
information must be maintained in a standardized and logical manner, since log
procurement lead times and periodic rotation of units and personnel increase the
chances that the part will be received by someone who did not originally place the
order. The unit's Cost Control/DTO Clerk shall maintain the maintenance shop's DTO
records.
When requesting status from Supply, the Cost Control/DTO Clerk must be able
to identify the requisition number in which he is interested. Accurate DTO records allow
the Cost Control/DTO Clerk to identify the USN numbered equipment for which each
part was ordered. The DTO repair parts status-keeping system described in the
paragraphs that follow provide excellent accountability with minimum effort. This
system consists of two records designed to be used together: (1) the DTO Log (Figure
5-3), and (2) the Repair Parts Summary Sheet (Figure 5-4). These records may be
kept in the form of a book or a loose-leaf binder. In addition, a secure area to store
received parts must be available.

preventive maintenance EROs go to the Cost Control/DTO Clerk to avoid accidental
reordering of items and to allow the clerk to attach notification (DD Form 1250-1) to the
ERO to show that the parts are in the DTO bin. Repair Parts Summary Sheets provide
reference to determine the quantity of parts received from a multiple order, such as
parts for an engine overhaul. When equipment is to be transferred or disposed of, the
Repair Parts Summary Sheet is used to identify outstanding requisitions so that they
may be canceled.

5.7.5 Direct Turnover Parts Storage. The DTO bins require a secure area large
enough to contain 40 cubes measuring 12 inches by 12 inches by 12 inches (minimum)
to store DTO parts. Each cube must be labeled with a Preventive Maintenance Group.
When DTO parts are received, they must be placed in the cube that corresponds to the
PM group of the equipment that require the parts. This area must be able to be locked,
and must be remote from the repair parts room.

APPENDIX D. ATTACHMENT MANAGEMENT FOR NCFs/SOUs
1. Objective. Attachment management follows the same basic principles as USN and
USNG number control. Proper registration and management are essential to prevent
attachments from becoming separated from the basic machine and lost or inadvertently
discarded. Proper stowage and preservation will also help prevent expensive attachments
from being rendered useless by oxidation and damage.
D-1
Attachment Identification numbers (Table D-1) are two inches high and shall be
permanently welded to that portion of each attachment least subject to normal wear.
Where it is not desirable to weld directly on the attachment, as in the case of crane booms
and hooks, the ID number shall be welded on a metal plate of appropriate size and then
permanently fixed to the attachment.

(concrete pad, matting), to keep them out of sand, mud, and water, and to allow drainage
of rain water from buckets or other areas where water may accumulate. Cover
attachments if possible. Attachments and accessories shall be continuously inspected for
accountability, proper stowage, and preservation. Stowage shall be accomplished in the
following manner.
b. Nuts shall be screwed onto the corresponding bolts and located in their
respective holes, when possible.
e. Exposed machine surfaces, such as hydraulic rams, and openings into critical
areas shall be preserved and covered to prevent deterioration and damage.
f. Hydraulic lines and fittings shall be sealed to prevent dirt and moisture from
accumulating in the hydraulic system.
h. Rust will be removed from effected by proper means. Areas will be primed
and painted to prevent further corrosion during preventive maintenance cycles.
a. Reassignment From One USN Number to Another. Submit one copy of the
updated NAVFAC Form 6-11200/45 to the Equipment Allowance Holder if appropriate.
Transfer one copy of the registration card to the new vehicle history jacket. The Allowance
Holder must then update CASEMIS.

APPENDIX E. CONTAINERIZATION PROGRAM FOR NCFs/SOUs
2. Mobilization And Deployment. The NCF pre-packed and containerized TOAs are
staged to support rapid mobilization and deployment. Mobilization of containers will be by
cellular-type ships. Cellular ships are the shipping industry standard and steel ISO
containers have replaced the wooden mountout boxes.
4. Container Designs And Types. Total container inventory will consist of five
different designs of containers, commonly known as ISO Standard 20s, Flatracks, Half-
Heights, TRICONs and SIXCONS.
a. ISO Standard 20s. The ISO Standard 20-foot containers are built as two
types: bulk and configured.
(1) The Bulk type has an open interior and is used for packing bulk items
such as skids, wooden boxes, and palletized loads.
The refrigeration containers have open interiors and are self-cooling with their own
generator power source.
b. Flatracks. Flatracks have open sides and top with fixed end walls. They are
used to stow bulk items such as lumber and pipe.
E-1
c. Half-Heights. Half-Heights have closed sides and a tail gate end. They are
approximately half the height of a standard 20-foot container. They are used for drummed
oil/lubricants and steel stocks.
d. TRICON. TRICONs are one third of a standard 20-foot container. They are
built as two types. Three can be linked together with connectors to form a Twenty-Foot
Equivalent (TEU) and fit the envelope of a Standard 20-foot container.
(1) The Bulk type is open and used for packing bulk items such as skids,
wooden boxes, and palletized loads.
e. SIXCON. SIXCONs are one sixth of a Standard 20-foot container. Six can
be linked together with connectors to form a Twenty-Foot Equivalent (TEU) and fit the
envelope of a Standard 20-foot container. SIXCONs are built in four configurations.
(2) Fuel Pumps which are self-contained with gasoline motor, fuel pump,
hoses, and hardware.
(4) Water Pumps which are self-contained with gasoline motor, water
pump, and hardware.
E-2
c. Bulk Containers. In the bulk containers tie down points are strategically
placed to secure materials.
d. Forklift Pockets. Forklift pockets have been provided in both the ISO
Standard 20-foot and the TRICON containers.
(1) The forklift pockets found on the 20-foot containers are to be used only
if moving an empty container and only with 8-foot long forklift tines. The refrigeration
containers do not have forklift pockets and are not to be moved with forklifts.
6. ISO Container Requirements For A NMCB. The ISO container requirements for a
NMCB are:
NOTE: See Technical ISO Container Data (Table E-1) for size, weight, and other
technical information on each container.
8. Container Transport Vehicles. There are two basic container transport vehicles:
a 15-ton stake truck and a 34-ton tractor-trailer combination. Both vehicles can transport
all container types. These trucks are general-purpose vehicles which double as container-
moving equipment. Both vehicles have limited off-road capability and twist lock devices for
quick and safe container tie-down.
9. Container Handling. Top and/or Bottom Lift Container handling devices are
recommended as the primary and best way to handle containers. They reduce the
probability of damage to the containers while moving or handling. The major damage to
containers occurs when they are moved.
NOTE: Do not use the Container Top Lifting Device with the 14-ton crane. Use only
the ISO Bottom Lifting Sling with the 14-ton crane.
E-3
10. Container Moving. Containers should be loaded or unloaded and staged without
hitting, bumping, or rubbing them together. When moving containers, additional personnel
are recommended to be used to spot or act as lookouts for operators for safety and to
reduce damage. The skins of the containers are constructed of high carbon, corrugated
sheet steel and the exterior coat of paint is the container’s primary defense from rust and
corrosion. Move or handle the containers minimally to reduce possibility of damage.
11. Container Storage Requirements. Empty and packed ISO containers may be
exposed to diverse climates, environments and methods of inside and outside storage.
Covered storage (protection from weather and direct sun) is recommended for all
containers, however, this may not always be possible. In all instances where containers
(empty or packed) are exposed to direct weather and sunlight, the frequency and type of
surveillance on containers must be increased to prevent weather and water damage that
could be caused by either leaks or condensation. Hardstands are recommended for all
non-temporary storage to insure that containers do not stand for any period of time on
uneven, unlevel footing or in water or mud.
a. Interior Storage. Interior storage of containers, using either a warehouse or
some other form of covering, is recommended for all containers, particularly if they are
packed with material. Warehouse or covered storage of a container offers the advantage
of increased protection from the elements and decreased maintenance and surveillance
costs. Containers are designed and constructed to be waterproof but can leak, causing
interior corrosion and possible damage to packed material. Covered storage eliminates
these problems. Covered storage also prevents container "weather systems", a
phenomenon brought about by alternate heating (daytime) and cooling (nighttime) of the
container's interior air, which causes condensation to form on interior surfaces. If left
unchecked, the condensation causes corrosion and rust. In tropical, subtropical, and high
humidity environments, dehumidified warehouse storage is strongly recommended for
containers, particularly for the long-term storage of packed containers.
There are no special interior storage requirements or precautions for packed and
sealed containers, other than to insure that the container is not exposed to standing water
(dunnage is recommended) and that the containers are accessible for preservation and
surveillance. For warehouse or covered storage of empty containers, the doors should be
shut, with the vents left open (no interior moisture absorption material) or closed (moisture
absorption material present) accordingly. Please refer to appropriate NAVFAC design
manuals and shore facilities planning documents for further information on warehouse or
covered storage structures.
b. Uncovered Storage. Uncovered or exterior storage presents unique and
potentially damaging problems for containers and their contents. Uncovered or exterior
storage probably will be the only alternative for many activities or units, but there are ways
to minimize container damage from the effects of sun, rain, wind, snow, and so forth.
Minimize the damaging effects of weather to save maintenance dollars, increase the useful
life of a container, and provide increased protection to container contents. The easiest
preventive measure is the most obvious; keep the doors shut when the container is not in
use. This simple act literally saves thousands of dollars in maintenance costs. When a
container is stored outside, orient the doors away from the prevailing wind to prevent water
E-4
intrusion from rain or snow. Store containers on dry, level surfaces. Use dunnage to
prevent the containers from resting in standing water. Concrete is the best surface for
storage. For long-term exterior storage of containers, apply a thin seal of silicon grease
along the door seal to prevent water intrusion. A silicon joint sealant may also be used but
is recommended only for containers destined for long-term storage. Stacking and cubing
containers together minimizes the effects of weather and prevents container "weather
systems". Stacking cones, corner lugs, and tie downs are to be used if containers are to
be stacked more than two high. Containers can be stacked up to six high; however, this is
not a recommended procedure in areas subject to high winds.
When storing packed, sealed containers outside, keep the vents closed at all times.
Empty containers stored outside for long periods of time should be sealed with desiccant
provided, and vents kept closed at all times. If a container is in operation, the vents can be
left open. If a container is damaged, for example, it has a hole in its metal skin, there is
rust due to water intrusion, or it has been "racked," make repairs immediately to prevent
further damage. A rigorous and thorough preservation and surveillance program should be
instituted for stored containers.
c. Hardstand Requirements. Hardstand requirements for ISO containers are of
special note due to the unique problems encountered when containers are handled and
stored on various operating surfaces. The preferred handling and storage surface is
concrete, provided it meets appropriate design specifications for loaded containers.
Container storage and handling surfaces are to be durable with good water drainage.
Smooth, even surfaces are required to prevent the containers from "racking," especially
when loaded or stacked. Generally, asphalt surfaces are not recommended due to their
possible damage under the heavy container loads. Asphalt presents dangerous handling
problems when material-handling equipment (especially forklifts) sink or penetrate the
surfaces under the weight of loaded containers. Other surfaces such as compacted soil,
sand or crushed rock can be used on a case-by-case basis. Their use depends on the
load bearing capabilities and other characteristics that allow safe, effective container
movement and storage. On any surface, dunnage is recommended to prevent standing
water damage to the containers.
12. Preservation, Surveillance and Certification. Preservation procedures require
that action be taken to protect both the container and its contents from deterioration. Rust
and corrosion due to moisture primarily cause deterioration. Scheduled inspection of
containers and their contents on a cyclical basis is required to insure that they are
adequately protected from the environment. Surveillance serves as a review of the overall
container condition. The CSC certification of a container tells a shipper that it is structurally
sound, watertight, and compatible with existing shipping modes. Without the proper CSC
certification a container is merely a large metal storage box that will be rejected by a
shipper.
a. Initial Preservation. The first step in the preservation and surveillance processes
of a container is its initial preservation. Initial preservation begins as soon as possible,
preferably upon completion of the acceptance inspection, and no later than four weeks
following its delivery. Initial preservation procedures are relatively simple and consist of the
following six steps:
E-5
(1) Lubricate the electrical porthole cap, door hinges, Cam Locking Devices, and
vents, and electrical porthole cap (if it hasn't been replaced with an expansion plug);
(2) Apply talc powder (MIL-T-39A) to all rubber seals;
(3) Remove any interior standing water or condensation and repair rusted areas;
(4) Touch-up painting (primer MIL-P-53022, topcoat MIL-C-46168C) of damaged
exterior panels, (GSA catalog has current NSN);
(5) For configured containers, apply light oil on cabinet locking mechanisms and
drawer glide bearings; and
(6) Coat metal marking plates and door hinges with clear lacquer.
All containers, regardless of condition upon acceptance, require initial preservation
without delay. In addition to the initial preservation steps listed above, any repairs
necessary to correct damage from shipping or handling should be completed as soon as
possible. A container must be completely repaired before it can be considered ready for
issue and use.
13. Surveillance and Preservation of Empty Containers. Surveillance is a system
whereby containers are subject to cyclic, scheduled and special inspection and continuous
actions to assure that material is maintained in ready-for-issue condition. After containers
have been delivered, accepted, and initially preserved, they can be placed in static storage
pending pack-up or shipment for fleet use. Static storage may last for several years and
containers may or may not be covered. Covered storage and warehouse storage are the
preferred methods of long-term container storage, but are unnecessary if adequate
surveillance and preservation is performed. Containers in static storage must be stacked
to allow unhindered and complete access for proper surveillance and preservation. The
following are guidelines for the surveillance (visual inspection) of empty containers in
storage:
♦ Covered storage: Surveillance cycle is 12 to 60 months (depending on type
of covered storage). If standard warehouse cycle is every 48 months; and for
controlled humidity warehouse, cycle is every 60 months.
♦ Uncovered storage: Surveillance cycle is 12 months and Inspection
requirements for the interior and exterior.
Water intrusion is the single most destructive element to containers. Frequency of
inspection and size of the surveillance sample for uncovered statically-stored containers in
tropical and subtropical environments may need to be increased to insure adequate
safeguards against this problem. Depending either on the amount of environmental
controls exercised or a variety of other factors, inspection frequency and size of container
surveillance sample in covered static storage may also need to be increased. It is
important to note that the above surveillance and preservation guidelines pertain primarily
to the storage of containers in a temperate environment. The importance of repairing leaks
and damaged containers as soon as possible to prevent further damage cannot be over-
emphasized.
E-6
14. ISO/CSC Certification of Containers. All NCF and RNCF containers are designed
and built to meet the technical standards of the ISO and CSC. Containers are initially ISO
certified by their manufacturer and provided with a safety approval plate. The safety
approval plate has the original date of ISO certification and other pertinent information.
The ISO/CSC certification allows the container to function as an intermodal shipping
container that can be loaded and shipped any number of ways. The certification tells the
shipper that the container is structurally sound and is compatible with existing shipping
modes. Without the ISO/CSC certification a shipping activity may refuse to handle the
container. The container may even be impounded by shipping regulation authorities
pending certification. The initial certification of a container is valid for 5 years; thereafter, it
must be recertified every 30 months. Loaded containers with an expired inspection date
cannot be placed aboard a ship. A waiver has been granted by the Coast Guard, which
applies to the inspection cycle of containers stored inside a warehouse and packed with
TOA material. Internal visual inspection requirements are waived for periodic examinations
of these containers while in storage, awaiting deployment. When these containers are
placed in normal intermodal transportation, in or outside the United States, all examination
requirements, including the internal exam must be completed as part of the periodic
inspection examinations no later than every 30 months.
a. Recertification. Recertification requires a visual inspection by an inspector who
has successfully completed the Intermodal Dry Cargo Container/CSC Inspection Course
given at the U.S. Army Defense Ammunition Center and School. This course is available
to all Department of Defense personnel. Recertification of a container is based on the
judgment of the inspector, except where tolerances are provided. Rejected containers
must be repaired and inspected again prior to issuance of the ISO/CSC certification. For
further information on container recertification procedures, refer to OPNAV Instruction
4620.10 and MIL-HDBK-138A, Container Inspection Handbook for Commercial and Military
Intermodal Containers. The visual inspection is designed to make the following
determinations:
(1) Is there an approved safety plate attached to the container?
(2) Is the container structurally sound?
(3) Do the container's doors operate properly?
(4) Is there evidence of corrosion or rust, particularly on the container's
structural members?
(5) Does the container have crushed, cut, broken, or bent corners?
(6) If the container's skin is patched, was it done properly?
(7) Does the container exhibit floor and roof integrity?
(8) Have improper repairs or modifications been made to the container?
(9) Does the container still possess weather-tight integrity?
E-7
(10) Is the container properly painted and are labels and markings correct?
15. Alteration, Repair and Maintenance. An alteration to a container is defined as any
modification, improvement, or change to its basic design or function. Repair and
maintenance are the general procedures and methods used to repair and maintain
container doors, cabinets, corrugated metal panels and other container components.
a. Alteration. An alteration is anything that changes the fit, form or function of a
container. Alterations may be as radical as the removal of container cabinetry and doors
or burning holes in the container's skin to insert electrical cables and lights. Or they may
be as subtle as simply changing a container's exterior color or providing additional
specialized markings. Whatever form the modification takes, or however extensive the
changes are, they will always alter the fit, form or function of a container or its interior
cabinetry.
ISO containers were designed for a specific purpose, and even minor modifications could
prevent a container from being used for its designed and intended purpose. Each
container is fabricated for intermodal shipping and storage, and a simple modification might
prevent it from being accepted as an ISO/CSC certified container. What may appear to be
an improvement could actually destroy the container's structural integrity and render it
unsafe for shipping purposes. For these reasons, alteration or modification of containers is
strictly prohibited without approval from the NFELC Commodity Manager. For further
information on ISO container modifications and alteration, please contact the NFELC .
b. Repair. Repairs to containers and interior cabinetry are classified as either
major or minor. Repairs to damaged corner fittings, corner posts (replaced), roof bows,
main rails, cross members, side panels, roof panels, flooring, and cabinetry are defined as
major repairs. Repairs to isolated and superficial damage such as punctures of a
container's skin or touch up painting are defined as minor repairs.
The purpose of any repair is to restore the container to its original structural integrity and
enable it to function as an instrument of international transportation. The repair method
selected must always be the most economical for this purpose. Always keep safety in
mind when selecting the type of repair. Whenever possible, damaged components should
be repaired rather than partly or completely replaced. After repair, the effected area should
be of equal or greater strength than the original. Use materials and parts of the same or
better quality, strength, and thickness than those used in the original manufacture. A
proper repair restores the original size and profile of a component.
The using activity or unit can best perform minor repairs, providing the expertise and
materials are available. Please refer to the appropriate technical manual for further
discussion, specific guidance, and instructions for minor repairs to containers.
Major repairs are controlled in the same manner as other centrally managed 2C-
Cognizance items. If the cost of a repair exceeds 65 percent of the replacement cost,
survey the container and order or budget for a replacement. If major repairs to a container
are economically justified, have the container repaired by an NNFELC CEMB or other
activity with the expertise to perform the work. Safety, cost, and the ability to maintain the
repaired container’s ISO and CSC shipping certification always govern major repairs. The
E-8
loss of the ISO certification will prevent the container from fulfilling its primary mission - -
intermodal shipping and storage.
c. Maintenance. Under normal conditions, ISO containers require very little
preventive maintenance. Moving parts are limited to cam locking devices, door hinges and
vents. When a container is in live storage (being used as an active storeroom) it is
necessary to inspect container components for corrosion, material deterioration and
component lubrication at least once every 3 months. Operation of containers in severe
weather, in dusty or sandy areas or near salt water requires more frequent inspection.
Maintenance inspection should not be confused with the surveillance and preservation
procedures. Surveillance and preservation procedures are designed to keep statically
stored containers in a ready-to-use condition. Maintenance procedures are designed to
insure that a container in use or in live storage continues to operate properly. Maintenance
inspections consist of the following:
(1) Inspect and lubricate cam locking devices, door hinges, vents, container
cabinets and drawers. For specific lubrication requirements please refer to the
manufacturer's technical specifications. Fouled lubrication should be thoroughly wiped
away and replaced with fresh uncontaminated lubricant.
(2) Inspect rubber door seals. Replace deteriorated door seals as necessary.
(3) Inspect for leaks and holes in metal skin. Pay particular attention to the
container's roof. Promptly repair any holes in the container.
(4) Wash off exterior of container with fresh water when necessary. In salt water
environments this requirement prevents corrosion of metal components.
(5) Use touch-up paint, as necessary, on container skin, metal components,
interior cabinets, and the like. If rust and corrosion are present they should be thoroughly
removed and bare metal primed prior to touch-up painting.
(6) For configured containers, apply graphite grease to drawer roller bearings as
necessary.
(7) Always remove any standing water that has intruded the container. Repair
rusted or corroded areas promptly.
16. Center Of Balance And Gravity Determination. The Naval Construction Force
Tactical Embarkation Manual, COMSECONDNCB/COMTHIRDNCB Instruction 3120.1,
recommends various methods to determine the Center of Balance or Gravity (COB/G). If
some methods, such as the "rolling log" are used to determine the center of balance or
gravity of a container, serious damage will occur to the side rails and under carriage of the
container. Care must be taken in all field operations to prevent damage. The Container
Operations Manual, NAVFAC P-1051, details a weighing method to determine the COB/G.
a. Aircraft Load Master. The Aircraft Load Master checks an ISO container
certification and does not relate to the contents, weight distribution, or the load security
within the container.
18. Bar Code System. Bar code technology is applied to the NCF containerization
pack ups. The bar coded labels are used to designate locations and to identify the material
within the containers. The location labels on the cabinetry are based on the Master
Packing Plan (MPP). Issue/Release Document Forms (IRDF) are placed with the material
to provide bar coded NSN and Stock Data Identification of each item within the location.
Bar Code NSN and Location Data Labels are used to mark and control each line item. The
bar code labels are used for Inventory Management and the Integrated Logistics Overhaul
(ILO) Program.
19. Technical Manuals. Technical manuals for Standard 20s and TRICONs are
available and provided upon issue of the containers. Additional manuals can be ordered
from Supply, NNFELC PORT HUENEME Port Hueneme, CA.

APPENDIX G. MAINTENANCE BUDGET AND MAN-HOUR STANDARDS
1. Scope. These guidelines provide a uniform system for the preparation of a planned
transportation maintenance budget. The budget should become an operational plan with
scheduled periodic performance evaluation. The input standards contained in Table G-1
provide for all the direct man-hours of labor required for transportation maintenance
expenses.
G-1
c. Computation of Man-Hour Input from Standards. The recommended
procedure for determining direct maintenance man-hour input for budget projection
(plan) is to list inventory quantities by EC sequence summarized by Cost Account Code
(CAC). Using Table G-1 of this Appendix, select the established man-hour input
standard for each specific EC in inventory. List unit target miles, hours, and leave
column blank for those ECs with annual man-hour input standards. There will be three
separate computations/formulas for determining the annual budgeted man-hour inputs,
depending upon whether the equipment standard man-hour input per mile, hour, or
annual unit basis. Examples of computations are as follows:
Formula 6 X 17 = 102
d. Shop Labor Rate. The shop labor rate used in budget preparation should
include acceleration for leave and other fringe benefits and a projected cost of living
G-2
increase. (This information should be provided by the local comptroller.) The shop
labor rate can be developed by dividing the labor cost/dollars by the direct labor hours
for the maintenance branch using the most recent labor and material cost report plus a
projected acceleration factor.
Example: Total direct labor cost for the Maintenance Branch = $96,000
18,000 man-hours of direct labor = $5.33 average labor rate + 33 percent fringe benefits
+ 8 percent cost of living increase = $7.52 shop labor rate.
e. Material Cost Factor Per Hour of Labor. A material cost factor for each hour
of direct labor shall be developed locally, using cost data from the latest annual
transportation cost report. To determine the material cost factor for each hour of direct
labor, divide the total annual material cost reported for the maintenance branch by the
reported direct labor hours. The material cost factor should be escalated to allow for
price increases anticipated in the budget year.
f. Maintenance Overhead. The total overhead hours under CAC 6900 should
not exceed 32 percent of the direct productive standard hours for the maintenance
branch. Considering normal staffing, overhead labor is based on a ratio of 2 overhead
personnel to 10 direct personnel with direct labor personnel effective for 91 percent of
available 1,728 annual direct labor hours.
Formula:
G-3
g. Budget Computation. Sample worksheet for the direct labor and material
budget is shown in Figure G-1 Part A. The following are the appropriate column entries:
COLUMN (6) SHOP LABOR RATE. Enter the shop labor rate. To compute the
shop labor rate follow instructions contained in paragraph 2.d.
COLUMN (7) LABOR DOLLAR. Enter the total labor dollar for each equipment
code entry. This entry is obtained by multiplying Column (5) by Column (6).
COLUMN (9) MATERIAL COST. Enter the total material cost for each
equipment code entry. This entry is obtained by multiplying Column (5) by Column (8).
COLUMN (10) TOTAL LABOR AND MATERIAL. Enter the total labor and
material cost for each equipment code entry by adding Column (7) and Column (9).
COLUMN (1) COST ACCOUNT. Enter the appropriate Cost Account Code
(CAC) for each function. The CACs are listed by categories in the NAVSO P-1000-3.
COLUMN (2) FUNCTION. Enter position title for indirect functions requested.
G-4
COLUMN (3) MAN-YEARS. Enter the total man-years required for each indirect
function listed.
COLUMN (4) MAN-HOURS. Enter the total man-hours for each indirect function.
Compute on the basis of 1,728 hours for each full time indirect employee and add hours
required for direct personnel performing indirect/overhead functions.
COLUMN (5) LABOR RATE. Enter labor rate for each entry. Take the average
base pay for listed titles, add fringe benefits and projected cost of living increase.
COLUMN (6) LABOR COST. Enter total labor dollars for each entry. This entry
is obtained by multiplying Column (4) by Column (5).
COLUMN (7) MATERIAL COST. Enter the estimated cost of material for each
indirect entry.

c. Painting Instructions
(1) CARC Test. Equipment painted with CARC should have "CARC"
stenciled near the data plate. If not stenciled, wet a cloth with acetone and rub hard on
the painted surface for 10 seconds. Wet a clean corner of the cloth with acetone and
rub the same spot another 10 seconds. If no paint comes off the second time, it is
CARC (the first rub may remove over spray and make you think it is not CARC).
(3) Areas to Avoid CARC. Do not use CARC on fabric, metals that
have anodized or parkerized finishes (such as weapons), hoses or flexible surfaces.
CARC won't last on wood because wood expands and contracts with weather changes,
and CARC is not flexible enough to move with wood, so it will crack and peel off.

(b) Painting. Prepare ferrous metal (steel and iron) or aluminum
surfaces as listed below.
d. Unused Paint. Treat as hazardous waste any leftover paint and topcoat
component B, if it goes bad in the can. Good component B should be clear to pale

Appendix M. Fuels, Lubricants, Preservation, and Rustproofing Materials
Section 1. LUBRICANTS
Motor oils are classified by the American Petroleum Institute (API), The Society of
Automotive Engineers (SAE), and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).
Jointly they have developed the present commercial system to designate and identify motor oil
classifications.
Engine oil classifications not included in this manual have been determined obsolete
because test hardware or fluids used to define those performance categories are no longer
available. The following is a list of current API letter designations.
d. CH4 – High-Speed Four-Stroke Diesel Engine Service. Oils designated for this
category were adopted in 1998 and describes oils for use in high-speed four stroke-cycle diesel
M-1
engines. These oils are specifically compounded for use with diesel fuels ranging in sulfur
content up to 0.5% weight. CH4 oils are superior in performance to those meeting API CD, CE,
CF4 and CG4 and can effectively lubricate engines calling for those API service categories.
When combined with the appropriate “S” category, for example, “SJ” they can also be used in
gasoline and diesel powered vehicles such as automobiles, light trucks, and vans. When
recommended by the vehicle or engine manufacturer.
e. SJ 1996 Gasoline Engine Service. Oils designated for this service are typical of
present gasoline engines in passenger cars, light trucks, and vans that operate under
manufacturers' recommended maintenance procedures. Oils developed for this service provide
improved control of engine deposits, oil oxidation, and engine wear relative to oils developed for
previous categories. These oils also provide protection against rust and corrosion. Oils that
meet API service category “SJ” may be used when API service categories "SH, SG, SF, SE,”
are recommended.
Within each range of use, the oil is divided into different viscosity classes, for example,
"SAE 10W," "SAE 20W/20," and "SAE 30." The "SAE" classification is exclusively based on the
viscosity of the oil. Oils with the single designation, for example, "SAE 10," "SAE 20," are
known as single viscous oils, or single grade. "SAE 10W/20" is an example of a designation for
a double viscous oil, or double grade. This designation means that with the oil it is just as easy
to start the engine as with an "SAE 10W" oil, and that it has the same lubricating capacity at
high temperatures as an "SAE 20" oil. An oil which covers three SAE numbers, for example,
"SAE 10W/30" is known as multigrade oil, and one that covers more than three, "SAE 15W/40"
oils, are known as stay-in-grade oils.
The SAE number with the letter "W" is based on a viscosity at 00F (-180C) and the others
on the viscosity at 2120F (1000C).
Intended Use. The grade SAE 10W oil is not to be used in high-output, two-cycle compression-
ignition engines. The lubricating oils, except as mentioned above, covered by this specification
are intended for the crankcase lubrication of reciprocating spark-ignition and compression-
ignition engines used in all types of military combat/tactical ground equipment and for the
crankcase lubrication of high-speed, high-output, supercharged compression-ignition engines
used in all ground equipment. The oils are also intended for the same application in power
transmissions, hydraulic systems, and non-hypoid gear units of engineer/construction
equipment, materials handling equipment and combat/tactical ground equipment. The
lubricating oils covered by this specification meet service classification CG4, CF of SAE J183
and are intended for all conditions of operational service, as defined by appropriate lubrication
orders, when temperatures are above -130F (-250C).
M-2
Military Specification MIL-L-46167C.
Intended Use. Lubricating oil covered by this specification is intended for the crankcase
lubrication of reciprocating spark-ignition and compression-ignition engines used in all types of
ground equipment. The oils are also intended for the same application in power transmissions,
hydraulic systems, and non-hypoid gear units of engineer/construction equipment, materials
handling equipment and combat/tactical ground equipment. The specification product is
intended for crankcase lubrication under all conditions of service, as defined by appropriate
lubrication orders, when ambient temperatures are in the range of 410F (50C) to -670F (-550C).
The lubrication oil covered by this specification is not to replace Grade 10W, MIL-L-2104
lubricant, in areas where ambient temperatures will not be below -130F (-250C). In addition, the
lubricating oil covered by this specification is intended for use in arctic regions as an all weather
(year-round) power transmission fluid for military tactical/combat ground equipment. The
lubricating oil covered by this specification meet service classifications API CG4, CF of SAE
J183 and are intended for all conditions of operational service, as defined by appropriate
lubrication orders.

Caution should always be taken in cold weather operations. Time should be given for
lubricating oils to warm up, because metal-to-metal contact is possible.
Proper oil level is a must, and should be checked at regular intervals. Look for signs of
oil leaks because low oil levels could cause costly repairs. This is especially critical if the
vehicle is operating in mountainous regions where angularity of the transmission and axles have
to be taken into consideration.
a. API Classifications for Power Trains. A list of API classifications for power trains is
shown below.
M-4
(3) GL-3 designates the type of service characteristics of manual transmission
and spiral bevel axles operating under moderately severe conditions of speed and load. These
service conditions require a lubricant that has load carrying capacities greater than those which
satisfy API-GL-1 service, but below the requirements of lubricants that satisfy API-GL-4 service.
(6) GL-6 designates the type of service characteristic of gears, particularly high
offset hypoid in passenger cars and other automotive equipment operated under high speed
and high performance conditions.
b. Efficiency and Life of Axles and Transmissions. If a lubricant is suitable for more
than one of the API classifications for power train classes, it should be indicated. The
classification does not include oils for automatic transmissions, torque converters, differential
brakes, etc., which require special lubricants.
The efficiency and life of all axles and transmissions depend on proper lubrication to
reduce friction, help cool, and keep dirt and wear particles away from moving parts. Improper
lubricants are a major cause of component failure. It is essential to use recommended lubricant
specifications and capacities.
As a general practice, the mixing of lubricants should be avoided. Mixing gear lubricants
with even small amounts of other types of lubricants can result in antagonistic reactions
between the additive chemicals in the mixture. Such reactions may result in a significant loss of
gear protection. The mixing of MIL-L-2105E approved lubricants, as in a top-off situation,
should not impair lubricant performance because these lubricants are required to demonstrate
stability when mixed with previously qualified gear lubricants.
Intended Use. The gear lubricants covered by this specification meet American Petroleum
Institute (API) Service Classification GL-5 and MT1, and are intended for automotive gear units,
heavy-duty industrial type enclosed gear units, steering gear units, heavy-duty non-
synchronized type 7 & 8 manual transmission, and fluid lubricated universal joints of
automotive equipment. The lubricants covered by this specification are intended for use as
defined by appropriate lubrication orders when ambient temperatures are above -650F (-540C).

3. Grease Lubricants. A lubricating grease is a solid to semifluid mixture of a fluid
lubricant and thickening agent. Additives that give special properties may be incorporated. The
fluid component may be a mineral oil or a synthetic fluid; the thickener may be a metallic soap
or a nonsoap substance such as clay, a urea compound, or other material. The most
commonly used soaps are calcium, lithium, sodium, aluminum or a combination of these with
other materials. When mixing different types of greases, the possibility of incompatibility exists
and should be avoided since it may result in excessive thinning and leakage. Cleanliness is the
prime consideration in the use of greases. The removal of surface grease and dirt
accumulation from dispensing equipment and application points such as zerks and grease gun
fitting is essential. Excessive dispensing pressures and pumping rates should be avoided
because they tend to cause seal deformation and rupture.
Automotive service greases are classified into two groups: (1) chassis lubricants and (2)
wheel bearing lubricants. These are further separated into performance categories: chassis
grease categories "LA" and "LB," and wheel bearing grease categories "GA," "GB," and "GC."
Greases that meet the requirements of chassis grease and wheel bearing grease are
considered multipurpose greases, and should carry the appropriate NLGI designations for both
groups to avoid confusion with commercial, nonautomotive multipurpose greases.
(3) GA service is typical of wheel bearings in passenger cars, trucks, and other
vehicles under mild duty. Mild duty is encountered in vehicles operated with frequent
relubrication in non-critical applications.
(4) GB service is typical of wheel bearings in passenger cars, trucks, and other
vehicles under mild to moderate duty. Moderate duty is encountered in most vehicles operated
under normal urban, highway, and off-highway service.
(5) GC service is typical of wheel bearings in passenger cars, trucks, and other
vehicles under mild to severe duty. Severe duty is encountered in certain vehicles operated
under conditions that result in high bearing temperatures. This includes vehicles operated
under frequent stop-and-go service (buses, taxis, urban police cars, etc.) or under severe
braking service (trailer towing, heavy loading, mountain driving, etc.).
M-7
b. Grease Consistency. The consistency of grease is an important factor in its ability
to lubricate, seal and remain in place, and for the ease of dispensing. . Consistency is the
degree of hardness of a grease and may very considerably with temperature. This has been
classified by the National Lubricating Grease Institute into categories; 000, 00, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
and 6. Most automotive greases are in the NLGI No. 1, 2, or 3 ranges, that is, from soft to
medium consistency. Grease containers should display the consistency number as well as the
category designation.
Intended Use. The grease covered by this specification is intended for the lubrication and
surface corrosion protection of all ground vehicles and equipment operated over the
temperature range from -650F (-540C) to 3560F (1800C). This grease may also be used in other
applications within this temperature range where National Lubricating Grease Institute (NLGI)
No. 2 consistency greases with oxidation resistant and corrosion prevention properties are
desirable.

Automatic Transmission Fluid. Fluid friction characteristics are important in automatic
transmissions that use lubricated clutches to change gear ratios. No single fluid will satisfy
the friction requirements of all transmission types. Modification of friction values is possible
with additives and is responsible for the two main types of automatic transmission fluids now
in use: (1) Friction modified Dexron II, and (2) Nonfriction modified Type F.
Dexron lll / Mercon is an automatic transmission fluid designed for new generation,
electronically controlled transmissions. This product may also be used in previous GM
automatic transmission units such as those requiring Dexron llE, Dexron ll, and Dexron
fluids; and is a qualified Ford Mercon ATF. Further, it meets the performance requirements
for Allison Transmission Division C-4, and major hydraulic pump manufacturers’
requirements for antiwear hydraulic fluids.

APPENDIX N. LIVE STORAGE FOR
CIVIL ENGINEERING SUPPORT EQUIPMENT
2. Live Storage Program. The NCF units are hereby provided guidance for a
program of live storage of CESE. It is realized that general application of this
instruction shall not provide specific coverage for all CESE, nor the varied operational
and climatic conditions experienced geographically. When more frequent exercising is
warranted, the Equipment Officer or Maintenance Supervisor is authorized to vary the
exercise intervals.
b. Place equipment in live storage when there is no foreseeable need for the
equipment for a period of two preventive maintenance (PM) cycles or 80 working days.
All cranes, however, shall be maintained in an active status under control of the crane
crew. The CESE eligible for live storage must be in A5 condition and be controlled as
outlined:
(1) Equipment placed in live storage shall retain its original PM group
and be placed in a 20-day cycle. Example: If a piece of equipment is in PM group 4 it
shall also be placed in PM group 24; a piece of equipment in PM group 37 shall also be
placed in PM group 17. A master live storage cycle schedule shall be prepared for the
CESE assigned to live storage, using the same format prescribed in Chapter 4, Section
2, which provides instructions for establishing a PM schedule for active CESE.
Cost Control shall provide to the Live Storage Supervisor a weekly list of CESE to be
cycled by USN numbers and the type of cycle due. The Live Storage Cycle Log (Figure
N-1) shall be reviewed and signed by the maintenance supervisor. At the end of each
workweek, the completed Live Storage Cycle Log shall be returned to Cost Control in
order to update the Live Storage Service Sheet (Figure N-2).

N-2
(2) A copy of the Live Storage Service Sheet shall be maintained in the
History Jacket for each piece of stored equipment that indicates the date the unit was
placed in storage and a chronological order of inspections, operational test, and repairs
performed. The Live Storage Service Sheet shall not be purged from the History
Jacket.
(8) Based upon the numbers of the active maintenance force (floor
mechanics), the optimum ratio of active pieces of CESE to mechanics is 5 to 1. CESE
in excess of a 5 to 1 ratio should be considered for placement in live storage. The ratio
of 5 to 1 is the goal, and it is recognized that the composition, experience levels, and
capabilities of the full maintenance force, as well as construction requirements, may
make it unattainable or unnecessary.
(1) Open type 09 ERO for initial live storage and perform to a “B”
preventive maintenance level if one has not been performed within the last 20 days,
except oil change intervals will use the manufacturer’s recommended interval for
mileage/hour usage. If the equipment is under manufacturer’s warranty, use
manufacturer’s maintenance procedures.
N-3
(2) Perform all repairs necessary to place equipment in A5 condition.
(c) Batteries are fully charged and contain the specified amount
of electrolyte.
N-4
(3) Start and run engine until it reaches operation temperature.
Monitor gauges, inspect for leaks, and listen for abnormal noise. Ensure the following:
(3) Start the engine and check gauges, electrical system, operation of
all controls, and inspect for leaks and abnormal noises.
N-5
(c) Use an adequately equipped truck-tractor or towing unit for
semi trailers and towed equipment to permit testing of trailer
lights and brakes.
(2) During the operation test, load the equipment to capacity and
operate for at least five miles. Then unload the vehicle and inspect
for discrepancies. Reload the vehicle and drive for an additional
five miles. Unload the equipment and turn over to the maintenance
shop for any required repairs.
(3) Operate CESE, such as dozers, loaders, scrapers, and graders, for
at least 1/2 hour under full load. After 1/2 hour under full load,
inspect the equipment for discrepancies. After the inspection,
operate the equipment an additional 1/2 hour under full load. Then
turn over the equipment to the maintenance shop for any required
repairs.
(4) Change oil in all equipment, if applicable. Oil change intervals shall
be based on the equipment manufacturer's recommended
maintenance interval for mileage/hour usage.
N-6
(5) Any Direct Turnover (DTO) parts ordering shall be done at this time
and put on the vehicle during the next 80-day operational test.
(8) After returning to storage, the Live Storage Service Sheet shall be
updated from data obtained from the ERO.
(2) When equipment is removed from live storage and has not
received an 80-day inspection within the last 40 working days, an ERO will be initiated,
and maintenance to the “02” PM level will be performed.
