After the board conducts the monthly inven- tory,  it  will  submit  a  report  to  the  commanding officer. SURVEY  OF  CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES Destroy controlled substances in the presence of  at  least  one  member  of  the  inventory  board. Make  appropriate  entries  to  the  stock  records  and the   controlled   substances   log.   Items   shall   be destroyed  in  a  manner  that  ensures  total  destruc- tion  and  prevents  subsequent  use.  Destruction must  be  done  in  a  manner  that  meets  Federal, State, and local environmental pollution control standards. PROPERTY  SURVEYS A  survey  is  the  procedure  required  when  Navy property or Defense Logistics Agency material is lost,  damaged,  or  destroyed,  except  in  incoming shipments.  A  survey’s  purpose  is  to  determine who  or  what  is  responsible  and  to  affix  the  ac- tual  loss  to  the  United  States  Government.  To make  a  true  determination,  the  facts  surrounding the  loss  or  damage  must  be  thoroughly  investi- gated  in  a  timely  manner.  The  following  forms are  used  in  connection  with  survey  procedures: DD   Form   2090,   GPLD   (Government Property  Lost  or  Damaged)  Survey  Cer- tificate. This form will be used if no per- sonal responsibility exists. DD  Form  200,  Report  of  Survey.  This form  will  be  used  if  personal  responsibility is evident, if the reviewing authority does not approve the DD Form 2090, or if the commanding officer or higher authority so directs. For  more  detailed  information  about  the survey  procedures,  refer  to  the  NAVSUP  Manual, volumes  I  and  II. CONTINGENCY  SUPPLY  BLOCKS At  some  point  in  your  career,  you  may  be assigned to a Rapidly Deployable Medical Force (RDMF),   a   Mobile   Medical   Augmentation Readiness  Team  (MMART),  a  fleet  hospital,  or some  other  contingency  related  unit.  These  are units that can be deployed anywhere in the world on a short notice. To function, these units require supplies and equipment that generally are either not available or are in limited supply in the area to  which  deployed.  To  circumvent  this  problem, contingency supply blocks have been established. Contingency  supply  blocks  consist  of  func- tionally packaged medical and dental equipment and  supplies.  Each  block  is  assembled  to  meet  the needs of a specific unit. For example, a surgical supply   block   contains   enough   equipment   to establish  1  operating  room  and  sufficient  supplies for   100   major   surgical   cases.   NAVMED- COMINST 6440.2 lists several other blocks and their  support  capabilities. ASSEMBLING  THE  BLOCK The  contents  of  each  contingency  supply  block are enumerated in an Authorized Medical Allow- ance List specific to that block. The Naval Med- ical  Material  Support  Command  is  responsible  for developing,  publishing,  maintaining,  and  coor- dinating  a  comprehensive  review  of  all  AMALs on at least an annual basis. The AMAL booklet is the basic source document used to sustain sup- ply block management. The preface of the AMAL booklet   contains   instruction   for   maintaining, packing,  and  marking  the  block. MANAGEMENT  OF  THE  BLOCK Contingency   supply   blocks   contain   dated, shelf-life, or deteriorative items such as pharma- ceuticals,  intravenous  solutions,  and  prepackaged items.  To  ensure  operational  readiness,  make  sure dated items in the block have an expiration date sufficiently far in the future to allow for a lengthly deployment  (up  to  1  year).  To  accomplish  this, all blocks are to be inventoried on a semiannual basis  during  the  first  and  third  quarters  of  the calendar year by the assigned team, if any, or the designated  supply  block  inventory  board.  This allows  the  team  members  to  become  familiar  with the  contents  of  the  block  and  the  operability  of all equipment. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
