Coveralls
Gloves
✔✔Set 3 PPE - PC3 White - ✔✔Wear:
Gas mask: MCU2P, M9, M17, or M40
Flame retardant coveralls

✔✔Group A - Chemical Agent Groups - ✔✔Lethal, Toxic
Nerve gas, mustard gas
Hazard: lethal gas
Wear - Set 1 PPE PC1 (Red)
✔✔Group B - Chemical Agent Groups - ✔✔Riot Control
Choking agents, blood agents, screening smoke
Hazard: incapacitating
Wear - Set 2 PPE PC2 (Yellow)
✔✔Group C - Chemical Agent Groups - ✔✔Smoke
, White phosphorus and associated materials
Hazard: ignites on contact with air
Wear - Set 3 PPE PC3 (White)
✔✔Group D - Chemical Agent Groups - ✔✔Incendiary
Thermite, napalm
Hazard: extremely high heat, highly toxic fumes
Wear - Set 3 PPE PC3 (White)
✔✔Material potentially presenting an explosive hazard (MPPEH) - ✔✔is material whose
explosive danger is NOT known--it may or may not contain explosive material
Common MPPEH items:
Munitions and munitions debris, targets, and materials collected during routine
operational range clearance or munitions response
Used munitions containers and packaging material
Material and equipment (tanks, piping, ducting, wood, concrete, etc.) used during
munitions production, maintenance, demilitarization, or disposal
Soil or other environmental material contaminated with hazardous concentrations of
explosives
✔✔Not Material potentially presenting an explosive hazard (MPPEH) - ✔✔Articles,
equipment, buildings, or other items that have never been contaminated with explosives
and have never contained ammunition are not considered MPPEH.
Examples include:
Munitions debris made of solid metal fragments that do not present an explosive
hazard.
Material that is NOT munitions-related (rebar, scrap metal, etc.).
Items that pose an explosion hazard, but are NOT munitions-related (gas cans,
compressed gas cylinders, etc.).
✔✔What are two methods of processing Material potentially presenting an explosive
hazard (MPPEH)? - ✔✔process materials through a Thermal Convection System (TCS)
perform a visual inspection
✔✔Which material has been screened by inspectors and certified "free from explosive
hazards"? - ✔✔MDAS
✔✔Live Fire Range - ✔✔are a primary source of UXO, usually in the form of fired
munitions that failed to function.
✔✔Combat - ✔✔is responsible for many civilian UXO casualties as old munitions are
inadvertently disturbed or mistakenly collected as war souvenirs.
