JT Service EOD

Abstract

DOD Directive 5160.62 assigned to the Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) the responsibility of Single Manager for Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Technology and Training (T&T). It also assigns to the Executive Manager for EODT&T the responsibility to provide for technical development, validation, preparation, Joint Service approval, and distribution of all EOD procedures texts, graphic aids, manuals, and bulletins. This program provides for the development of validated EOD render-safe procedures (RSPs), key identification features, and safety information used by EOD personnel in all four military services when performing their mission of rendering safe and disposing of both domestic and foreign explosive ordnance and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) that pose a threat to military operations, installations, personnel, and materials. In addition, EOD render-safe procedures for foreign ordnance must be developed as soon as possible after gaining knowledge of its existence. This effort requires exploitation and analysis of the foreign ordnance prior to development of the procedures. The program also provides for the development and evaluation of prototypical EOD Tier Two solutions sets for threats Identified in the National Response Framework. This effort also provides resources necessary for the Foreign Threat Mine Acquisition/Exploitation (FTMA/E) program. This effort includes acquisition, inert certification, intelligence and operational exploitation, analysis, procedure development, and disposition of the highest priority foreign threat naval mines. This program is a non-acquisition program (without traditional acquisition milestones) with on-going, continuous delivery of urgent and periodic documented procedures and identification guides.
