F8   52.211-9G22   DSCR PALLETIZATION FOR MIL-STD-2073   DSCR (MAY 2002)
                   IN ACCORDANCE WITH D001450000 
                   REVISION B (01290)

    (a)  Palletization.

         (1)  When the total number of containers going to the same 
destination exceeds either 250 pounds (excluding pallet) or a volume of 
20 cubic feet, then palletization IAW MIL-HDBK-774 is required.  When 
the total number of containers going to the same destination is less 
than 250 pounds (excluding pallet) and is less than 20 cubic feet, then 
palletization is not required IAW MIL-HDBK-774.

         (2)  Except as otherwise provided in this clause,
shipping containers may be palletized IAW the guidance cited in 
MIL-HDBK-774 (formerly MIL-STD-147D).  All references to MIL-STD-147D 
are covered in MIL-HDBK-774.  Special palletization instructions may be 
further specified under other preparation for delivery instructions in 
this order/contract.  In the case of any inconsistency between such 
special palletization instructions in the requirements cited in this 
clause, the special palletization instructions shall take precedence.

         (3)  All pallets shall be new and unused and shall be 
seasoned hardwood or softwood as required by the applicable pallet 
specification.  

              (i)  All wooden pallets and wood containers produced 
entirely or in part of non-manufactured softwood species shall be 
constructed from Heat Treated (HT to 56 degrees Centigrade for 30 
minutes) coniferous material and certified accordingly by an 
accredited agency recognized by the American Lumber Standards 
Committee (ALSC) in accordance with Non-manufactured Wood Packing 
Policy and Non-manufactured Wood Packing Enforcement Regulations 
both dated May 30, 2001.  All wooden pallets and containers produced 
entirely of non-manufactured hardwood species shall be identified by 
a permanent marking of "NC," 1.25 inches or greater in height, accompanied 
by the CAGE code of the contracted manufacturer and the month and 
year of the contract.  On pallets, the marking shall be applied to the 
stringer or block on opposite sides and ends of the pallet and be 
contrasting and clearly visible.  On containers, the marking shall 
be applied on a side other than the top or bottom, contrasting and 
clearly visible.

             (ii)  Oak and chestnut wood shall be bark free and square 
edged so that none of the natural rounded surface tissues remain, or 
be bark free and have a moisture content no greater than 20%.  The 
contractor is responsible for performing an inspection of each shipment 
to assure compliance with this requirement.

            (iii)  Pallets required for use, unless otherwise specified, 
shall be a MIL-P-15011J, 16 Sep 85, Type I (4-Way Entry) or an NN-P-71C,
Notice 1, 20 Dec 73, Type IV or V as shown in Figure 2 of MIL-HDBK-774.

         (4)  Hazardous material containers, except cylinders and 55
gallon drums, shall be palletized IAW Load Type VI of MIL-HDBK-774, 
Pallet Type IV or V.  "Hazardous Material", for the purpose of this 
clause, means any material considered hazardous under the Department of 
Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations, 49 CFR 171-79, IATA, 
ICAO, IMDG, unless otherwise specified.  Use of shrink wrap is not 
authorized for HAZMAT.

         (5)  The use of stretch-wrap, shrink film or nonmetallic 
strapping for bonding is not authorized for export shipments.

         (6)  Stretch-wrap, when utilized, must be accomplished 
mechanically (machine or hand held tool that maintains enough tension 
to secure the items to pallet).

         (7)  All polyethylene/plastic containers without fiberboard
overpack shall be palletized IAW Load Type VI of MIL-HDBK-774.

    (b)   Loading:  Five-gallon tight head pails shall be loaded on 
pallets IAW Load Type III or IIIA of MIL-HDBK-774, except that a triple 
layer or course may be used for a total of 42 cans.

    (c)  Unitization:  Supplies that do not lend themselves to the 
use of MIL-HDBK-774 palletization due to size, weight, configuration, 
etc. shall be unitized by securely blocking, bracing, or anchoring the 
load on a skid base or commercial type pallet in a manner that assures 
safe delivery.
