Navy Guidance Manual for the Hazardous Material Substitution Process: NAVSUP-P-718.
Abstract
The Manual provides guidance for use of the Naval Hazardous Material (HM) Substitution Process. That process was developed over the course of several years by a special chief of Naval Operations N451 (CNO N451) Working Group and proof tested by the Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP). The HM Substitution Process consists of three phases. Phase I includes identification of technically suitable substitutes for existing or planned HMs. Phase II involves selection of environmentally and economically feasible candidate materials. Candidate materials are selected by applying the HM Substitution Algorithm and the NAVFAC P-442 Economic Analysis Model. Phase III requires implementation of the process result. This involves a decision as to whether the status quo material should be eliminated, replaced, or retained. All technical documents that govern use of the material or process must be changed accordingly.
