INSPECTION CHECKLISTS FOR THE LCU-2000
Section I. INTRODUCTION
1.
conducting marine condition surveys and shipyard inspections of US Army watercraft. It provides a standard
format for conducting various surveys and inspections and recording the findings. Included is specific guidance
for:
A.
Interim Surveys.
B.
Pre On Condition Cyclic Maintenance (OCCM) Inspection
C.
Shipyard Arrival Tests and Inspections.
D.
Underwater Areas Inspections.
E.
Work in Process Inspections.
F.
Dock and Sea Trials.
2.
OBJECTIVES: The specific inspections, surveys, and tests and trials have somewhat different
objectives. The overall goal of the program is to insure that the craft is maintained and repaired to the highest
standards of safety, seaworthiness and mission readiness. The inspections include all requirements imposed
by the United States Coast Guard (USCG) and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) for similar commercial
vessels.
3.
MODIFICATION WORK ORDERS (MWO): Equipment changes and alterations are normally
implemented by Modification Work Orders. Funding of these may span several years depending on the
urgency of the problem. All users of this Technical Bulletin should ensure that they have an up-to-date file of
MWOs and application schedule. Status and application to particular vessels should be examined during each
inspection. Complete and partial implementation must be reported to the National Maintenance Point. Once
the MWO has been completed, the inspection criteria in this publication will be updated to reflect the new task
performance and standards.
4.
SAFETY NOTICES and ADVISORIES: Incidents, accidents, and reported equipment failures may result
in safety notices, alerts or an advisory. These will generally be early warning and investigative in nature. Once
it has been determined that there is an actual problem, corrective action will be implemented through
modification work orders or publication changes. It is essential that an up-to-date file be maintained and
utilized in conjunction with this technical bulletin. All users of this bulletin should ensure that they are on the
distribution list with the Marine Safety Office, Ft. Eustis, Virginia. Information sharing is essential to
maintaining safety. Discoveries of latent defects, equipment failures and problems should result in wide
dissemination of information to ensure that it does not predominate throughout the fleet. Deficiencies that are
discovered during an inspection that are suspect of repeats with other vessels should be reported to the
National Maintenance Point as soon as possible.
