Design Reviews: To ensure that appropriate hazard control techniques are applied; it is essential that industrial hygienists and safety professionals actively participate in planning, design, construction and acceptance processes for both special projects and military construction projects. Reviewers shall consider, appropriately influence the design, and engineer safety and occupational health aspects into all facilities that are acquired for use by Navy personnel. In addition, we request that standard operating procedures (SOPs), purchasing transactions, and contracts relevant to industrial hygiene and occupational health be sent to the Industrial Hygiene Department for review. Notification: This report is a snapshot in time and reflects conditions and operations at the Command during the survey period.
