Minimum Tool Controls for Area
FOD Awareness area controls:
– None
FOD Sensitive area controls:
– Hardware will be segregated and identified
– Hardware taken onto the assembly will be stored in a covered container
– Any hardware removed from the assembly that cannot be retained must be completely removed from the assembly
FOD Critical area controls:
– Hardware will be segregated and identified
– Hardware taken onto the aircraft will be stored in a covered container with clearly marked part number and quantity
– Any hardware removed from the aircraft that cannot be retained must be completely removed from the aircraft
3.9 Lost items
Proper reporting of lost/found tools, hardware or other items is essential in a robust FOD Prevention Program. Any time an item is lost during an assembly, manufacturing or maintenance task, cease activity in the affected area and initiate a search for the item. Continue this search until the item is found or adequate assurances are made that the item is not contained in the aerospace vehicle or assembly. Searching for such items may require depaneling or nondestructive inspections, including borescope and/or x-ray. If an item cannot be located after a search has been completed, annotate applicable forms with a description of the item and search procedure followed.
Employees should be aware that proper reporting of lost tools, hardware, or other items will not result in disciplinary action.
Failure to report or concealing a lost tool, lost FO, found tool or found FO to the Manufacturing/ Maintenance supervisor, is grounds for disciplinary action up to and including dismissal
3.10 Hazardous Materials
Management of hazardous waste materials is important in the prevention of FOD. Disposition of hazardous waste materials is dependent upon the commodity discarded. Consult federal, state and local Hazardous Material Procedures for disposal specifics.
3.11 FOD Critical Areas & Access control
When physical entry is required into flight hardware, such as crew compartment, engine intake, exhaust, fuel tank areas, etc., personnel should remove all loose objects, badges, jewelry, etc., from clothing. Pocket less or closed zippered pocket coveralls should be worn to preclude foreign objects dropping from pockets onto a FOD critical area.
• FOD Critical Area controls:
– Clean-As-You-Go
– FOD barriers on all open lines and tubes when not in work
– FOD barriers on all electrical connectors when not in work
– No food or drinks in area. Water is acceptable.
