(1) Property Survey Summary Sheet. The Property Survey Summary Sheet provides
information including property name (current and former); property location; property history as
prepared by the geographic real estate district; description of site visit, if applicable; category of
hazard (e.g., HTRW, OE, etc.); brief project description by category; listing of available studies
and reports; and a POC.
(2) FDE. The FDE documents whether the property is eligible for DERP-FUDS. There are
two components of the FDE: the Findings of Fact and the Determination. The Findings of Fact
explains when and in what manner the site was formerly owned or used by DOD. The
Determination is a summary of the MSC Commander's determination of property eligibility.
The FDE is signed by the MSC Commander.
(3) Project Summary Sheet. The project summary sheet includes a description of the
problem or suspected problem; project description; cost-to-complete estimate; completed RAC
worksheet for OE projects; description of project eligibility; policy considerations; a description
of the next step in the proposed project; and a POC. A description of the types of ordnance
manufactured, stored, or utilized must be included. If no information is available, this must be
stated and the source of information searched must be documented.
(4) Risk Assessment. A risk assessment will be performed for all sites under investigation
for potential OE contamination. Paragraph 6-6d describes the risk assessment procedures.
(5) Cost Estimate. Due to the great uncertainty associated with determining the type,
to develop a cost estimate for ordnance response actions. The OE MCX will determine the type
of response action needed and the OE Design Center will prepare an estimate. The project will
then be recommended to HQUSACE for inclusion into the program work plan.
d. Risk Assessment Code Worksheet.
(1) The risk assessment will be performed using the RAC Worksheet. The RAC worksheet
relies on the best available information to assess the risk involved based on the potential OE
hazards identified at a site. The RAC Worksheet is used to generate a RAC score, which is used
to prioritize the response actions taken at FUDS. The RAC is executed by the district, reviewed
by the OE MCX, and approved by the MSC. Appendix B provides an example of a RAC
Worksheet.
(2) There are four general steps to performing an explosives safety risk assessment using
the RAC Worksheet.
(a) Step 1 - Identify the hazard in terms of the types of OE known or expected to be present
and the known or suspected distribution. Consideration must be given to effects of aging and
environmental exposure on the susceptibility of energetic response.
