NAVFAC P-300 Management of Transportation Equipment

a. Applicable. These procedures are applicable to all Navy Shore Activities,
DBOF and non-DBOF, that hold approved CESE IOs and to unified commands whose
headquarters receive Navy support.
b. Not Applicable. These procedures are not applicable to ships and afloat
commands, fleet commanders having headquarters and support activities ashore, shore
activities receiving CESE support from a Public Works Department/Center, Marine Corps
Air Stations, deploying Marine Air units, or the Naval Construction Force. Ship and
afloat commands derive transportation equipment support from the shore activity
designated as their home port. It is the responsibility of the home port shore activity to
provide IOs for ships and afloat commands in accordance with applicable
CINCPACFLT/CINCLANTFLT instructions relating to the number of vehicles authorized.
2.2.2 Procedures For IOs. Activity transportation equipment IOs for shore activities
shall be reviewed on a continuing basis. As changes in mission, new functions, and/or
functional transfers occur, the activity IO shall be revised. The IOs shall be based on the
minimum number of units required to accomplish the activity's mission. Activity IOs will
be reviewed/revised by the TEMCs during TMAVs and/or with sufficient written
justification from the activity on a one time basis for each requirement. For lease IOs the
activity shall do an economic analysis in accordance with paragraph 2.9.5. The TEMCs
shall review and evaluate the activity IO requests and establish/adjust the activity IOs on
a continuing basis.
a. Vehicles Excess to IO. CESE is received at an activity to replace current
inventory or to fill an unfilled IO and is not to be retained when excess to IO. When new
or used CESE is received at an activity to replace current inventory, a reasonable period
of time is allocated for the changeover to report excess and process paperwork before
transferring equipment to disposal. In certain situations, items excess to IO could be
required and may be retained for a limited period of time. These situations shall be fully
documented, approved by the TEMC, and kept on file at the activity. Examples of such
situations include: On-hand assets are of less capacity than IO items, so additional units
must be retained until IO items can be procured (i.e. two 5 ton dump trucks substituting
for one 10 ton dump truck); a short term need that must be met, but where an IO change
would not be required (less than one year duration). In each such case, authorization for
retention of excess vehicles shall be obtained from the TEMC in writing. The TEMCs are
to review these temporary approvals during TMAVs.
b. Fire Fighting IOs. Fire fighting IOs shall be closely coordinated with the
area Fire Marshal.
c. Railroad Equipment IOs. Railroad equipment IOs will be reviewed,
consolidated, and coordinated by each TEMC. The TEMCs are responsible for inventory
objective management, redistribution, transfer, and disposal of railway equipment in their
own geographic region. The overall administration of railroad operation within the Navy
will be in accordance with NAVFAC P-301.
