Background. 3-M is designed to provide ships and applicable shore stations with a simple and standard means for planning, scheduling, controlling, and performing maintenance on all shipboard systems and equipment. The primary objective of 3-M is to manage shipboard maintenance in a manner, which will ensure maximum equipment and system operational readiness. Reference (a) contains OPNAV policy regarding 3-M and assigns responsibilities to NAVSEASYSCOM Field Activities, Systems Commands (SYSCOMS) and the Naval Medical Command for providing support. 5.

Submission of Changes to this Manual. Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) (N43) has final approval for all changes, corrections, or deviations made to this instruction (Ships' 3-M Manual). Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA 04RM) is responsible for the management of these changes with Naval Sea Logistics Center (NAVSEALOGCEN) Mechanicsburg assisting with the research, coordination, and consolidation of all change recommendations. Naval Sea Logistics Center (NAVSEALOGCEN) Mechanicsburg, Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV), and Naval Education Training Command (NETC), when necessary, shall provide to NAVSEA 04RM periodic updates of those portions of this manual under their cognizance to keep the manual current. Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SPAWARSYSCEN) Norfolk and Naval Sea Logistics Center (NAVSEALOGCEN) Mechanicsburg, when requested by 3 Downloaded from http://www.everyspec.com on 2012-07-04T0:14:57. NAVSEAINST 4790.8B NAVSEASYSCOM, shall assist with changes affecting the system software, processing, or storage. a. Manual Advance Change Notice (MACN): A change issued to correct policy or procedure, which severely affects maintenance, equipment, readiness, or ship/personnel safety. An approved MACN will be issued immediately by message without waiting for the next routine manual change. MACNs remain in effect until incorporated into the next routine manual change. A sequential number identifying the MACN, followed by the calendar year (e.g., MACN 1-00, MACN 2-00, MACN 3-00), will be assigned to each MACN issued. b. Routine Manual Change: A change issued to enhance and correct policies and procedures not considered urgent. Changes in format or composition, changes made to clarify text, correct punctuation or spelling, update figure examples, or change codes are other examples considered routine. When approved and issued, a routine manual change cancels effective MACNs and consolidates them with routine change recommendations. These changes will be incorporated in the electronic document posted on the Web site (http://www.nslc.navsea.navy.mil/nslcprod/4790.nsf) and will be distributed via the next PMS Force Revision CD-ROM. c. Urgent Change Recommendations: Any individual or activity having knowledge of a situation, policy, or procedure adversely affecting critical functions in the ships' 3-M Manual shall report this information by message to NAVSEASYSCOM (NAVSEA 04RM) and the chain of command with information copies to CNO (N43) and NAVSEALOGCEN Mechanicsburg.

If warranted, a MACN will be developed and issued. d. Routine Change Recommendation: A routine change recommendation shall be submitted, with justification, by electronic medium to NAVSEASYSCOM (NAVSEA 04RM) at http://www.nslc.navsea.navy.mil/nslcprod/4790.nsf via the chain of command with a copy to CNO (N43). The format for submitting a routine change is on the web site. Following the chain of command review, NAVSEASYSCOM will forward the change recommendation(s) to NAVSEALOGCEN Mechanicsburg. Each recommendation will then be acknowledged by return email by NAVSEALOGCEN Mechanicsburg to the originator. All routine change recommendations will be researched, reviewed, validated, and coordinated with affective organizations by 4 Downloaded from http://www.everyspec.com on 2012-07-04T0:14:57. NAVSEAINST4790.8B 1 3 NOV 2OOJ Upon resolution, these recommendations become valid entries in the next manual changepackage. e. When instructed by NAVSEASYSCOM, NAVSEALOGCEN Mechanicsburg will consolidate effective MACNs with resolved routine change recommendations and will be issued with the PMS Force Revision on CD-ROM. f. A deviation request shall be submitted, with justification, when a need exists to depart from policies, procedures, and/or responsibilities as stated in OPNAVINST 4790.4D and in this instruction. Requests will be made in writing to NAVSEASYSCOM (NAVSEA 04RM) via the chain of command with a copy to CNO (N43) and NAVSEALOGCEN Mechanicsburg (N62). Receipt of all requests will be acknowledged following the chain of conunand review. Each situation or circumstances creating the need for deviation will be evaluated on an individual basis. NAVSEASYSCOM/NAVSEALOGCEN Mechanicsburg will coordinate with the involved activities to verify the need for the deviation and make the appropriate recommendation to CNO for approval. An approved request does not warrant a change to the manual. 5 NAVSEASYSCOM/NAVSEALOGCEN. Downloaded from http://www.everyspec.com on 2012-07-04T0:14:57.

  • The USS America on Track to the Future: an Update from Captain Hall
    USS America Second Line of Defense! ! http://www.sldinfo.com/the-uss-america-on-track-to-the-future-an-update-from-captain- !hall/! The USS America on Track to the Future: An Update from Captain Hall 2013-12-05 We first met with Captain Hall at the time of the christening of the latest large deck amphibious ship for the USN-USMC team. Recently, we were able to discuss the progress of the ship and the next phase of the ship’s preparation for deployment. The Captain is an experienced CRUDES officer. For those of us not raised in the USN, this means an officer with Cruiser-Destroyer surface fleet background. And for Navy folks he would be described as a “black shoe” as opposed to a “brown shoe.” Again for those of us who have not served in the USN, this refers coming from the surface ship community rather than the aviation community. Credit Video of USS America during the builder trials: Huntington Ingalls, November 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKDyvjek0BY He has served as the chief engineer on a Spruance class destroyer and most recently was a Captain of a DDG. And in his last deployment with the DDG, he deployed with the USS Kearsarge as well in the Indian Ocean. It is important to remember that Admiral Halsey, when he went into the hospital before the Battle of Midway recommended that his surface ship Commander (a “black shoe” in Navy parlance) Admiral Spruance take command of Task Force 16, the USS Enterprise and USS Hornet battle group.

  • The Jerseyman Number 78
    “Rest well, yet sleep lightly and hear the call, if again sounded, to provide Firepower for Freedom…” 2nd Quarter 2013 The Jerseyman Number 78 Springtime on the Delaware River Rich Thrash, Brass Team Volunteer April 1st is a day that always brings a smile to my face. To me it means another cold winter season is history and that nice warm spring and summer days are just around the corner. In my book any day I can put the top down is a good day… On the ship it means that my fellow brass polishers and I will be able to work outside once again and put a shine on those things you just can’t work on in the winter when the wind whips off the Delaware and forces us below decks seeking a warmer place to do our thing. This past winter we’ve spent a lot of time in the lower levels of Turret 2 polishing all the brass in that area, and believe me it’s a target rich environment for brass polishing down there. I’m so happy the Turret 2 Experience will finally be opening to the public this coming weekend. This is something that has been two years in the making and on which a long list of volunteers and staff have worked many hours to give visitors the most realistic experience possible. The first tour of this area will start at 11:00 am this Sunday; tour groups will be limited to a maximum of 15 guests. The price for this new interactive tour is $29.95.
