Request for Forces (RFF)

 Naval civil engineering force units & individual

Augments must be requested through this process to augment component or Joint Task Force (JTF)

Contingency Planning

 performed in continuous cycle that usually
Begins w/ publication of new Contingency Planning Guidance (CPG) & is designed to develop OPLANS, CONPLANS/functional plans to support national military strategy

Crisis Action Planning

 based on current events & conducted in time-

Sensitive situations & emergencies using assigned, attached & allocated forces & resources

Real Estate

 civil engineer planner consider aspects of

Acquisition &/ leasing real estate in support of engineer operations

Environment

 naval civil engineer planers consider effect of
Planning of operations on environment iaw Host Nation agreements; environmental laws & regulations; & US federal, state & local environmental laws & standards

 unified commanders obtain authority for

Negotiations with HNs through channels of Joint Staff, SecDef&Dept of State

 Supply
 Maintenance
 Transportation
 General Engineering
 Health Services
 Medical Treatment  Facilities
 Medical Evacuations

Initial/Expedient Construction Standards

 for facilities construction in tactical environment

When response times are at premium for rapidly deploying engineering resources to limited support locations

Temporary Construction Standards

 when locations requires that it extend efficiency
Of operations for use for as long as 24mos & when naval civil engineering forces are required to provide sustained operations

Permanent Construction Standards

 supporting stability & security operations for US

Forces w/ increased efficiency for long term sustained operations

General
 Combat
 Special

Joint Operations

 train to know how other service & coalition
Engineers & nongovernmental organizations operate & how naval civil engineering operations fit into joint environment

MPF

 Maritime Prepositioning Force
 NCF has pre-staged equipment & supplies aboard each Maritime Prepositioning Ship Squadron (MPSRON) to outfit NMCB & NCR in support of Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF)
 3 forward deployed

Counteracting Restriction to Movement

 when unit exceeds ability to maneuver around
Natural & artificial terrain, engineers advise unit commanders about counteracting restrictions to movement in range of operational situations & environments

Operations in Jungle Environment

 Wet gap crossing
 Forward operating bases
 Potable Water
 Mapping

Operations in Mountain Environment

 Mountain road construction

 Stream crossing

Cold Environments

 Seabees do not train for this kind of

Environment, however, UCTs do conduct arctic dive training operations.

Desert Environments

 complicated by task of providing adequate
Supply of water, increased requirements for camouflage assistance & deception & special problems in field fortifications

Gap Crossing

Seabees do not perform hasty gap crossing

 Can perform deliberate gap crossing w/ robust bridging capabilities & pile driving assets

Urban Terrain

 Seabees support construction projects in urban

& populated areas even though they are not an offensive force

Joint Forward Operating Base (JFOB)

 location should be chosen to make force
Protection easier by making enemy attack more difficult
 layout & design should facilitate current ops; have layered security approach; include ECPs tailored for large vehicles; personnel access, military access/combinations; have facilities designed to support incident response & quick reaction; & should include redundant utilities, protected critical assets & accessible protective shelters throughout JFOB

Leach Field

 used for sewage treatment processes where | Common sewers are not available

Camp Maintenance & Trouble Desk

 receives all trouble calls, enters info in trouble | Desk log & fills out Emergency/Service Authorization (ESA) forms

Facility History Jacket

maintained at trouble desk

3 Categories of Work

```  Emergency Service Work • Requires immediate action/any minor work requiring less than 16 man-hours  Specific Job Order • Work exceeds 16hrs  Standing Job Order • Highly repetitive in nature ```

gg. 3 Categories of Inspection

 Control Inspections • reviews all camp facilities to determine maintenance required during deployment to preserve condition of camp structures & property.  Annual Inspections • reports document deficiencies on base facilities  Operator Inspection • consists of examining, lubricating & making minor adjustments

Potable Water

 water suitable for drinking, cooking & personal | Use

Chlorine

 presently only widely accepted agent that Destroys organisms in water & leaves easily detectable residual that serves as indicator of completeness of treatment

Superchlorination

 used to disinfect water containers  accomplished by chlorinating water in container/distribution system to at least 100ppm FAC & holding it in container for 4 hrs.

ABFC

```  Advance Base Functional Component  3 Parts • Component • Facility • Assembly  program that displays data at Component, Facility/Group, Assembly/NSN level along w/ associated drawings & allows search by keys/key words ```
