and no longer is fit for use (not considered recyclable)
Legislation that governs the discharge of oily waste into the ocean - answerThe Clean
Water Act authorizes the DOD to issue regulations governing marine sanitation
Actions required for oil spills within the US - answerNotify the shore side naval
operational support center (NOSC), notify the National Response Center (NRC), take
practical, immediate actions to mitigate the effects of the spill, submit a naval message
Actions required for oil spills outside the US - answerInitiate immediate actions to
mitigate the effects of the spill, notify the correct fleet by naval message, the fleet NOSC
shall implement the oil and hazmat substance spill response plan
3rd Fleet - answerEastern and Central Pacific, HQ San Diego, CA (PACCOM)
4th Fleet - answerCaribbean Ocean, surrounding waters of Central and South America,
HQ Mayport, Florida (SOUTHCOM)
5th Fleet - answerMiddle East, Red Sea, Arabian Sea, Persian Gulf, HQ Manama

Warfare areas that utilize naval missile systems - answerAir to Air, Air to Surface,
Surface to Surface, and Surface to Air
Purpose of fire control - answerto put ordinance on a target
, Why we set HERO - answerTo prevent exposing live ordinance to radio frequencies
Mission of Naval Logistics - answerAn integrated system that supports day-one
readiness, and provides initial and continuous sustainment through a responsive
logistics pipeline that exists to meet the needs of our forces and is linked directly to
combat power and ability to apply that power. (EX: counting on a weapons systems'
reliability because it has been maintained by skilled technicians and supported by
extensive supply and engineering network)
Fleet Freight/Cargo message - answerBecause of changing schedules and weather,
material may end up missing connections with the ship. Ships must submit and
continually update Fleet Freight Routing instructions according to the ship's schedule to
prove complete cargo routing instructions. Cargo routing messages should identify the

cargo desired at each location.

bulletins containing information about materials such as composition, chemical and
physical characteristics, health and safety hazards and precautions for safe handling,
use, reactivity, manufacturer information and disposal.
Discuss work center supervisor responsibilities as they pertain to HMC&M -
answerEnsure that training, PPE, and equipment are maintained and utilized. Ensure
that prior to using HM, personnel have been trained on the hazards associated with the
material and what a MSDS is.
