3. What may result from tools left in an aircraft after maintenance has been
performed?
Major problemms, such as aircraft accidents and incidents and foreign object damage
(FOD)
4. How is the means by which tools can be rapidly inventoried and accounted
accomplished?
By using silhoutted locations that identify the place where the tool belongs.
5. What are "shadow boxes"?
Containers with silhouetted locations that identify the place where the tool belongs.
6. What inventory concept is the Tool Control Program (TCP) based on?
The instant concept and is accomplished, in part, thorugh the use of shadow boxes.
7. Who is responsible for coordinating the TCP and for ensuring that tools are
procured and issued in a controlled manner?
The material control officer
8.What does an approved tool control plan (TCPL) contain?
Information that includes material requirements, tool inventories, and detailed
instructions for the implementation and operation of the TCPL for a specific type/model
of aircraft.
9. What division is responsible for monitoring the overall Tool Control Program?
The Quality Assurance/Analysis (QA/A) division.
10. What information should be etched on all tools?
The organizattion code, work center, and tool container number.
11. Where should defective tools received from supply be reported?
The Fleet Material Support Office (FLEMATSUPPO) via CAT II Quality Deficiency
Reports (QDRs).
12. When are inventories of tools performed?
Prior to each task, before a shift change, when work stoppage occurs, and after
maintenance has been completed.
13. Who should be notified if any tool is found to be missing during the required
inventories?
The maintenance officer or assistant maintenance officer via the work center supervisor
and amintenance control.
14. Who has the responsibility for control of all tool containers and their keys?
Work center supervisors.
15. What program was established to inform workers about hazards and the
measures necessary to control them?
, The Navy Occupational Safety and Health (NAVOSH) Program
16. What is the purpose of the establishment of the Hazardous Material
Information System (HMIS) by the Department of Defense?
It is designed to acquire, store, and disseminate data on hazardous material procured
for use.
17. WWhat is the primary source for you to get the necessary information before
beginning any operation involving the use of hazardous material?
The Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), known as Form OSHA-20

19. Who are responsible for training work center personnel in the use of the
MSDS?
Work center supervisors.
20. What should always be checked to ensure that you are using the correct
MSDS with the material being used?
Check the MISPEC, part number, federal stock number, and the name of the
manufacturer.
21. What is Threshold Limit Value (TLV)?
Found in sections II and V of the MSDS and refer to airborne concentraions of a
substancce and represent conditions that nearly all workers may be exposed, day after
day, without adverse effects.
22. What is the definition of a WARNING as found in most naval aviation technical
manuals?
An operating procedure, practice, or condition, etc., that may result in injury or death if
not carefully observed or followed.
23. What is the definitiion of CAUTION as found in most naval aviation technical
manuals?
An operating procedure, practice, or condition, etc., that may result in damage or
destruction to equipment if not carefully observed or followed.
24. What is a NOTE as defined in most naval aviation technical manuals?
An operating procedure practice, or condition, etc. that is essential to emphasize.
25. When should the word SHALL be used when referring to a safety hazard
procedure?
Only when applicatoin of a procedure is mandatory.
26. When is the word SHOULD used when referring to a safety hazard procedure?
Only when application of a procedure is recommended
27. When are the words MAY and NEED NOT used when referring to safety
hazards?
Only when application of a procedure is optional.
28. When is the word WILL used when referring to safety hazard procedures?
Only to indicate futurity, never to indicate any degree of requirrement for applciation of a
procedure.
