The Time Compliance Technical Order (TCTO) SILC-TCTO-36-11 55 13 25-04 mandates lockout procedures for foam-based fire suppression systems in Coast Guard aircraft hangars to mitigate risks associated with deactivation. Compliance is required within 45 days, targeting facilities with High Expansion Foam (Hi-Ex) or Aqueous Film Forming Foam (AFFF) systems. Key actions include locking out valves and switches, ensuring operational water systems remain functional, and coordinating with relevant parties in leased facilities. The TCTO delineates roles and responsibilities, emphasizing the importance of reporting compliance to the Tactical Operations Product Line (TOPL). It outlines detailed lock-out instructions and requires notifications to key personnel regarding the status change in fire suppression capabilities. The document underscores the need for systematic risk mitigation to prevent class Bravo fires while securing operational integrity during the foam system lockdown. The TCTO ensures that safety protocols are maintained and provides guidance for managing fire protection systems effectively within Coast Guard operations.
