TOP-1-1-062, TEST OPERATIONS PROCEDURE: ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS DATA COLLECTION (12-SEP-2008)

TOP-1-1-062, TEST OPERATIONS PROCEDURE: ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS DATA COLLECTION (12-SEP-2008)., This Test Operations Procedure (TOP) describes a process for collecting environmental quality data from Army weapon systems and materiel during the developmental test and evaluation process. Environmental quality data requirements are identified, along with data collection methods and data analysis tools. The target audience for the data collected by this TOP is both the materiel developer and the military installation where the materiel system will be fielded. Some of the environmental quality data generated from this TOP are common to both the materiel developer and the fielding location, while other data may be unique to only one area. Not all media areas are relevant to all materiel systems; so, careful scrutiny regarding a materiel system's need to collect data for a specific media area should be considered.
