GENERAL PROCUREMENT PROCEDURES
Table of Contents
1. SITUATION. The first step in the procurement process is to identify the need for a HAZMAT product, and the specific product desired. The HAZMAT user then works in conjunction with their organization’s MATCON, COCESS, or administrative supply technician to procure the material. At this time, pollution prevention is applied to ensure only HAZMATs that are truly needed are ordered. The following questions will be asked before any HAZMAT is procured:
1.1. Do you absolutely need this material?
1.2. Can you use a less hazardous material in its place?
2. MISSION. This annex is written to ensure HAZMAT procurement procedures are clear to all HAZMAT users on HAFB.
3. EXECUTION. See Figure 1 for the HAZMAT Authorization Process flowchart.
3.1. First-time Material Procurements. NOTE: Each evaluator in this process has the authority to approve or disapprove any chemical prohibited for use IAW federal, state, local, and AF regulations and policies.
3.1.1. The User will: Submit a purchase request through EESOH-MIS to the
HAZMAT Program Manager, along with a safety data sheet (SDS) for the material being requested. Contractors must coordinate HAZMAT requests to be brought onto the base through Contracting.

ANNEX C TO HAFB HMOP
GENERAL LABELING, TRACKING, AND STORAGE PROCEDURES
Table of Contents
1. SITUATION. All HAZMAT received at HAFB is managed through its life-cycle using EESOH-MIS. Base organizations utilize EESOH-MIS for HAZMAT tracking. EESOH-MIS makes use of barcode technology to track HAZMAT. All HAZMAT containers are assigned a unique tracking number and a label is applied to the container to ensure it can be tracked from the moment it arrives on base until its eventual disposition (i.e., cradle-to-grave).
2. MISSION. To establish HAFB HAZMAT labeling, tracking, and storage procedures.
3. EXECUTION. HAZMAT users are divided into large, small, and administrative organizations, based on the quantity and toxicity of the HAZMAT they use. Before HAZMAT can be issued, HAZMAT users must have an established issue point. The HTA will assign an issue point when deemed necessary. All HAZMAT must be stored in designated issue points.
Organizations are encouraged to maintain a minimum supply of HAZMAT meaning either the smallest possible quantity required for the work being done, or a quantity that will last for one month or less. All HAZMAT users will obtain their property and barcode labels through their assigned HTA.
3.1. The barcode tracking system enables the HAZMAT Program Manager and the issue point to track the storage area and “in use location” of HAZMAT containers, maintain HAZMAT usage rate information, provide a real-time inventory of HAZMAT stock, and track the ultimate disposition of the HAZMAT container. The issue point and the HTA continually update HAZMAT material usage information.
3.2. Facilities and organizations exempted from these procedures are listed in paragraph 4.1.
in Annex B.
3.3. All emptied HAZMAT containers will be disposed of through the installation
Hazardous Waste Management Program. Each empty container must be labeled with its appropriate EESOH-MIS label. If no label is attached, the user must fill out the document stating when the material was purchased, why there was no label attached, and provide the proper SDS.
