DOVERAFBI91-201 15 JUNE 2017 3 Chapter 1 PROGRAM MANAGEMENT 1.1. Weapon Safety Program Management. In accordance with (IAW) AFI 91-202, The US Air Force Mishap Prevention Program, units at squadron-level or above with missions that include explosives must have a weapons safety program. The 436 Airlift Wing weapons safety office (436 AW/SEW) is host and coordinates all weapons safety requirements for the base. 1.2. Additional Duty Weapons Safety Representative (ADWSR) Appointment. 1.2.1. Unit commanders will appoint at least one primary and one alternate ADWSR to manage the unit s weapon safety program. As a minimum, ADWSRs must hold a 5-skill level, have a minimum of one year retainability and have a working knowledge of the area of responsibility. ADWSRs will be trained within 30 days of appointment. In the event the primary and alternate ADWSRs are to be absent for more than 30 days, a new primary ADWSR shall be appointed. 1.3. Local Instructions. IAW AFMAN 91-201, units that utilize munitions must develop written instructions approved by the squadron commander or equivalent for all explosives operations. Dover AFB weapons local instructions will be written IAW 91-201, paragraphs 1.22.1 (AMC) requiring the most restrictive guidance to be used either, AMC or AFRC. Local instructions must be coordinated through the appropriate 436/512 AW Weapons Safety Staff prior to squadron commander approval. 1.3.1. Local Instructions will be reviewed by 436 AW/SEW) during unit annual assessments. This review will be documented in the unit s assessment report. Unit review of local instructions will be conducted and documented IAW Dover AFB Publications/Forms Guide and/or other appropriate unit specific procedures. Notify 436 AW/SEW when unit local instructions are going into re-write or when changes are to be published. 1.4. Explosive Facilities License (EFL). Units requiring storage of ammunition and explosives must have a legitimate mission requirement to store limited amounts of operational explosives outside the base 436 MXS MSA. Legitimate is defined as those locations required to support continuous base defense and security missions, emergency response operations, and requirements supporting continuous aircraft mission operations. 1.4.1. Prepare AF IMT 2047, Explosive Facility License, IAW AFMAN 91-201 for each ammunition and explosives storage locations that are not sited for explosives. The license will require unit commander approval and coordination through Security Forces Squadron (Resource Protection), Base Civil Engineering Squadron (Fire Department) and Munitions Accountable Systems Officer (MASO) prior to 436 AW/SEW final approval. 1.5. Explosive Safety Training. All personnel who operate, handle, transport, maintain, load, or dispose of explosives must receive initial weapons safety training before performing any of these tasks. Training conducted by ADWSR. Conduct recurring training prior to the end of the 15 th month thereafter.
4 DOVERAFBI91-201 15 JUNE 2017 1.5.1. Training will consist of the use of an approved lesson plan. Lesson plans must provide the student with general knowledge of explosives and the associated hazards and tailored to the specific duties and weapons systems of the unit. 436 AW/SEW will review unit lesson plans during annual safety assessments and will be documented in the annual assessment report. Notify 436 AW/SEW when unit lesson plans are to be re-written or be published. 1.6. Safety Inspection Program. Safety inspections help identify hazards and measure compliance with safety program requirements outlined in AFI 91-203, Air Force Consolidated Occupational Safety Instruction. Through inspections, the safety staff helps the commander determine the condition of work areas, the safety of work practices, the degree of compliance with safety standards, and the degree of compliance with safety program requirements. There are three types of inspections within the weapons safety program arena; spot, high-interest area (HIA), and annual (assessment). To provide assistance, the safety staff will use outlines as provided in AFI 91-202. 436 AW/SEW will: 1.6.1. Inspect all explosive locations at least once a year, except as otherwise directed. 1.6.2. Inspect all high-interest areas monthly by spot inspection and annually as part of the explosive location inspection. 1.6.3. Inspect all explosive locations periodically, through spot inspections. 1.6.4. Inspections will be either "prior-notice" or "no-notice." Inspections will be combined with other inspections to reduce the number of inspections a unit receives. 1.7. Weapons Safety Award Program. An integral part of an effective and successful unit safety program is recognition. The Wing Safety Office provides this recognition through the wing safety awards program. Safety awards are awarded in several categories on a quarterly and annual basis per AFI 36-2833, Safety Awards. Submit award nominations IAW formats and suspense s as directed through local policy and as listed in DAFB writing guide. Contact 436 AW/SEW for further guidance on nomination procedures.
