You need to know storage compatibility of an explosive item before you store it. Which official regulation can you use as a reference for storage mixing?

DA PAM 385-64

You need a forklift to work inside an ECM and no battery-powered ones are available. What other MHE can you use if it meets OSHA requirements for concentration of combustible products and noise?

Diesel-powered

You will be moving ammunition in an area with the potential for explosive dust. Which battery-powered forklift is rated to work in that environment?

EX

You have closed and sealed a magazine that will no longer be used. how often are you required to check the seal?

Hot Work Permit

A misfire happened on the range and the QASAS immediately suspended the lot of ammunition/explosives. What happens to it now?

You are painting this week. If the explosives operating facility has a fire extinguisher and a grounded storage cabinet designed for flammable materials, you are allowed to store enough paint inside the explosive operating facility for

One day of work.

You are expecting a delivery of ammo and need to determine the official CIIV. Which resource do you use?

Shipping label

Of the operations listed below, which operation is ALWAYS ALLOWED inside a magazine containing ammunition?

Vehicles must be parked at least 50 feet away from a magazine.

You inspected a forklift and found no safety issues. Today is January 3, 2021. The date stenciled on the mast is January 1, 2021. Can you use the forklift inside a magazine.

Yes, it passed the safety test.

You are planning to store ammunition for an exercise. You need to look up its CIIC to identify the

compatibility group.

Some warehouses have been retrofitted to store ammunition and explosives. Their new Security Construction Statements (DA Form 4604) indicated the

highest security risk category allowed in the magazine.

Containers of ammunition should remain closed inside a magazine. You may open an outer container only to check/replace desiccant or to

inventory the ammunition inside.

You are planning the necessary firebreaks for a new ECM. You must have a 5-foot firebreak around the
