✔✔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.
✔✔Discarded Military Munitions (DMM) - ✔✔are generally unfired munitions or
munitions buried, abandoned, or from another disposal site.
They are technically not UXO since they may not have been armed, but they may still
contain hazardous explosives.
✔✔What are two ways that UXO can be generated? - ✔✔Combat, Live Fire Ranges
✔✔Which three safety procedures are required when dealing with UXO? -
✔✔Recognize, Retreat, Report
✔✔Title 49 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) - ✔✔49 CFR is a Department of
Transportation (DOT) publication governing the transport of HAZMAT via motor vehicle,
vessel, railcar, and aircraft.
Parts 171-180 provide basic standards for HAZMAT shipments and inspection
requirements of motor vehicles and railcars
✔✔Defense Transportation Regulation (DTR) 4500.9-R - ✔✔DTR 4500.9-R, Part II,
Cargo Movement outlines DoD policies governing transportation and cargo movement
✔✔NAVSEA OP 5 Vol. 1 - ✔✔NAVSEA OP 5 Vol. 1, Ammunition and Explosives Safety
Ashore provides basic Navy safety regulations for the production, renovation, care,
handling, storage, shipment, and disposal of A&E materials.
Chapter 12 provides A&E transportation requirements.
