(e) USATCES forwards one copy to DDESB for coordination/concurrence.

(f) A period of 60-90 days should be provided for the review and approval of the ESS by

USATCES and DDESB.

(5) ESS Routing and Approval for IRP and BRAC Projects. The following process will be

used in the preparation and review of the ESS for IRP and BRAC projects:

(a) The installation is responsible for preparing the ESS.

(b) The installation forwards three copies of the ESS to its Major Command (MACOM)

safety office for endorsement.

(c) The installation provides two copies to the district and one copy to the OE MCX for

review.

(d) The district and OE MCX provide comments to the MACOM safety office.

(e) The MACOM safety office reviews the ESS, incorporates comments, and forwards two

copies to USATCES with MACOM recommendations.

(f) USATCES reviews the ESS and forwards one copy to DDESB for final approval.

(g) DDESB reviews and gives final approval.

(6) ESS Modification. When an element of the approved ESS changes, the ESS must be

amended. The contractor will prepare the proposed change and forward it to the PM who will

forward it to the OE MCX for review. The OE MCX will forward the proposed changes to the

appropriate agency for approval. For a change that specifies less restrictive requirements (e.g.,

reduction in exclusion zone), the contractor will comply with the approved ESS until the change

is approved. When changes would be more restrictive (e.g., increase in exclusion zone), the

contractor will apply the more restrictive measures until the ESS change is approved.

11-5. Notice-to-Proceed. Once the ESS and all other prerequisite planning documents have been

approved, a Notice-to-Proceed with the removal action will be issued.
