Medium.

Environmental Water operations of every sort is an environmentally sensitive area. Spills, sediment, Considerations and refuse can contaminate area water resources. Training activities have potential to violate Army, Federal or State environmental laws and regulations. Violations will subject training activity to partial or complete shut down and even possible civil or criminal prosecution to the individual violator. Being unaware of a requirement is not considered a legitimate defense. Training will be conducted in designated areas only. All spills of hazardous material and POL products will be reported to the areas environmental office. Unit responsible for the spill will contain the spill to reduce

further environmental and training area degradation. Equipment will be operated to conform to environmental operating permits. Failure to do so could result in permit revocation and equipment/training shutdown. Evaluation The student will be given a written test and will demonstrate skills/knowledge by scoring 70% or higher on the float bridge end of annex examination. Raft commanding is an enormous responsibility. Safety will be your number one goal. As raft commander, you have to safe guard your soldiers on the raft and the soldiers and their equipment that will be rafted to the far shore. You must ensure that the boat operators can see you at all times for correct hand and arm signals and the soldiers on board adhere to the safety guidelines set forth during the safety briefing. (The instructor can build on this lead-in to motivate the students).

NOTE: Show O/H # 4 a. Directing the safety boats. (page 12, Safety boat) (1) Safety boats must be large enough and powerful enough to cope with the conditions at the work sites. Stationed downstream from the crossing site where personnel are working and must be clearly marked with no other duties. Safety boats should have two licensed operators who are trained in recovery of soldiers from the water and be familiar with every part of the boat they are operating. (2) Have crew and necessary equipment on board the safety boat. (3) Have a medic stationed on shore. b. Raft commander outlines the safety procedures for all crews. (1) All soldiers will wear life preservers while over the water, unblouse boots when near or over the water, ring buoys will be readily available, do not allow loose lines to trail in the water, non swimmers will be identified with a white arm band during day operations and with a green chem-light during night operations. The safety boat will warn off civilian crafts or other vessels which might create a hazard or might interfere with the rafting operation. The safety boat will be stationed downstream. NOTE: Show O/H # 5 c. Directing the boat operators. (page 5, Navigation rules) (1) It is the duty of the boat operator and his/her assistant to avoid collisions, navigate the waters in a safe manner and follow the standard operating procedures set forth by the commander in his/her tactical standard operating procedures (TACSOP).

(2) Bridge erection boats are used to propel the rafts in support of river crossing operations. The connection of the boats to the raft using either longitudinal or conventional method is accomplished by the assistant operator with the help of the centerline crew. NOTE: Show O/H # 6 (3) It is impossible for boat operators to independently control the direction and speed of raft movements without the directions of the raft commanders hand and arm signals. (page 10, Controlling raft movements) (a) Left turn, Right turn, Back up, Reduce speed, Stop, Straight ahead, Increase power. NOTE: Show O/H # 7 and # 8 d. Directing the centerline crew. (1) Assist in connecting the boats to the raft and issues life jackets to soldiers on the raft. (2) It is the duty of the centerline crew to throw the ramps for loading and unloading equipment from the raft. Helps as lookout for the raft commander. (3) Secures the raft to the shore with tag lines or approach guys to help prevent the raft from moving away from the shore, or swinging left to right when loading equipment. This can also be accomplished using the thrust of the boats engines. (4) Places the vehicles chock blocks to stabilize before departing from the shoreline and removes the chock blocks upon arrival to the far shore. (5) Have the centerline crew push or cut away debris from the raft. (6) Operates the hydraulic pumps on the ramp bays. NOTE: Conduct a check on learning and summarize the learning activity.

NOTE: Just for the students information ONLY, this will not take place during the practical exercise. (1) For all raft sites there must be an engineer regulating point set up to ensure that vehicles do not exceed the capacity of the raft. The platoon sergeant will appoint an NCO for this task. NOTE: Show O/H # 9 (2) Loading equipment, be aware that in some situations the near shore approaches can be very slippery and have steep grades. Have boat operators keep the raft on shore. When loading more than one vehicle onto the raft, the heavier vehicle is loaded last, (to the rear of the raft). (3) Ensure drivers understand hand signals. Deck space is limited, be careful not to guide the driver off the side of the rafts roadway. The driver uses low range, drive slowly and steadily, stop when guide tells you, have driver apply hand brake, keep engine running and the driver remains in the drivers seat. Place chock blocks in the front and behind the wheels. b. Unloading the equipment from the raft. (Chapter 2, page 8) (1) When unloading equipment remove the chock blocks, move forward gently be aware that in some situations the far shore approaches can be very slippery and have steep grades. When unloading the equipment observe the rear of the equipment to ensure it does not drag on the end ramp. NOTE: Conduct a check on learning and summarize the learning activity.
