4-2. UNPACKING.
a. Container Identification.
(1) Containers are identified externally by the markings on the container door as well as packing lists in a
waterproof packet attached to the outside. Packing lists and other documentation are also inside the container, but the
external identification system is such that the container need not be opened until component is required.
(2) All containers for material used in the TPT are marked with a wide heavy black bordered triangle. The
identification markings are located in the upper left section of the two long sides of the container and on one end.
(3) In addition to the triangle, there is a series of identification, shipping, and original source information which
describes the contents of the container.
b. Equipment Requirements. Material handling equipment (forklift with sling) is required to remove equipment from
shipping container and placement of equipment where it is to be located and opened.
c. Placement of Containers.
(1) Place containers as close as possible to where the component will be located. This necessitates quick
recognition of the contents in each container.
(2) Place the fabric, collapsible tanks in their shipping containers in the berms or close to the berms. This also
applies to placement of the 350 GPM and 600 GPM pumping assemblies.
d. Remove packing material and store it in a safe place for reuse.
4-3. RECEIVING INSPECTION.
a. Inspect the equipment for damage incurred during shipment. If the equipment has been damaged, report damage
on SF 364, Report of Discrepancy.
b. Check the equipment against the packing slip to see if shipment is complete. Report all discrepancies in
accordance with instructions of DA Pam 738-750 or DA Pam 738-751 as applicable.
