JULLS LONG REPORT
1. (U) JULLS NUMBER: 22754-07156 (00002), submitted by RILEY
AFZN-DE, MR. CRANMER, 856-3906, (913)239-3906.
2. (U) Operation DESERT SHIELD conducted by USCENTCOM on 01/29/91.
3. (U) KEYWORDS: HAZARDOUS MATERIAL.
4. (U) TITLE: LOGISTICS: HAZARDOUS MATERIAL TURN-IN
5. (U) OBSERVATION: Prior to deployment, units turned in large
quantities of Hazardous Material, much of which was unlabeled.
6. (U) DISCUSSION,
S. The DEH originally set up its Hazardous Material point in
one of the small motor pools on Main Post. The quantity and
variety of materials turned in quickly filled this area and
necessitated a move to a much larger area on Custer Hill.
b. Many of the materials were unlabeled. Most that were
labeled were either outdated or unusable due to improper
handling and storage. Several drums of oil were turned in
almost full. Someone punched a hole in the top of a large
container, removed a small portion, then left the container
outside in the elements. Rain and dirt collected in the
container making the remainder unusable.
7. (U) LESSON LEARNED: The motor pools contain a wide variety
and large quantity of unusable hazardous materials.
S. (U) RECOMMENDED ACTIONI Reemphasize the importance of
proper handling, storage, and usage of hazardous materials.
9. (U) COMMENTS: Identifying, tracking and disposal of this
material is going to be costly. It may cost more to identify
and properly dispose of some of these products than it cost to
purchase them.
(U) SUBJECT: LOGISTICS
(U) INTEROPERABILITY: PLANNING
