NOTES:

1. For previous cargoes not listed, contact DLA Energy Product Technology and Standardization Division at DLAEnergyProductTechnology@dla.mil for acceptability/cleaning procedures.

2. General Instructions for Tank Cars and Trucks

a. Conveyances (all) shall be dry and free from loose rust, scale, and dirt

b. Saran lined equipment should not be steam cleaned; water wash should suffice.

c. Petroleum products shall not be loaded into the conveyances where the previous cargo was caustic, acid, or chlorinated solvents.

d. Tank trucks and cars in liquid fertilizer service shall not load aviation turbine fuels directly but shall carry out at least two loads of commercial gasoline prior to the aviation turbine fuel load.

e. Conversion of Government-owned tank cars from liquid fertilizer service to aviation turbine fuel service shall only be done when no other alternative exists. Tank cars being converted from liquid fertilizer service to a petroleum product shall be adequately cleaned to remove all traces of liquid fertilizer. At a minimum, the equipment must be steam cleaned; dried and must be free from loose rust, scale, and dirt. After cleaning, but before loading aviation turbine fuels, at least two loads of commercial gasoline shall be carried prior to loading aviation turbine fuel.

Equipment with unlined compartments should have its compartments lined with an approved coating at this time. Conveyances carrying their initial load of aviation turbine fuel following conversion shall not be released from the loading until they have been sampled a minimum of 24 hours after loading. In accordance with MIL-STD-3004-1(latest edition), samples shall undergo type B-2 testing plus Thermal Stability Test (if required by the product specification). After type B-2 tests indicate compliance with specification requirements, the conveyance can be released pending results of the Thermal Stability tests. The conveyance shall not be unloaded until the loading point notifies the destination that the Thermal Stability test (when required) has passed. When the above condition applies, the DD-250, Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) Energy Receiving Report (ERR) or equivalent form shall be so noted.

3. To be loaded only in aluminum or stainless-steel conveyance, or other conveyance lined with an approved epoxy coating. If equipment is coated, clean with hot fresh water not exceeding 58°C (136°F) and dry thoroughly.

4. If previous cargo contained dye marker, all traces of color must be removed.

5. If product to be loaded does not contain dye, then the vehicle shall not contain any traces of dye prior to loading.

6. Drain/empty only when same specification product is being loaded.

7. Prior to loading the aviation fuels listed, the conveyance must have carried a previous non-FAME cargo and then be steam cleaned and dried.

Trucks that have previously carried biodiesel create a risk of cross-contamination of aviation turbine fuel with residual biodiesel components.

Diesel fuel may contain up to 5% FAME without reporting it as biodiesel. Because of the difficulties in making a load-rack of the presence of FAME in the previous load, the more stringent “Steam/Dry is required.

8. Drain and empty if loading biodiesel blend.

9. Cargos carrying dyed kerosene shall use the steam/dry cleaning procedure.
