GUIDANCE
1. GENERAL
a. AA&E facilities should be consolidated to the maximum extent possible within the scope
of operational, safety, and mission requirements to reduce vulnerabilities and protection costs.
b. AA&E should be removed from designated storage areas for as short a period of time as
possible and in the smallest possible quantity to minimize potential threats and reduce
vulnerabilities.
c. AA&E should be segregated into smaller storage areas by assigned SRC, and provided the
degree of physical security protection required by this Manual for each SRC in order to reduce
costs for protection and inventory control.
d. AA&E facilities and installations shall be constructed according to the security structural
requirements in this Manual, Reference (i), and Military Handbook 1013/1A (Reference (m)).
AA&E facilities should meet or exceed a minimum of 10 minutes resistance to forced entry
against an unlimited supply of hand and battery-operated tools. Review of these requirements
shall be conducted by qualified engineers and trained physical security specialists prior to design,
contract award, and acceptance for new construction and major renovations to ensure compliance
with the criteria of this Manual and References (i) and (m). Resources used for upgrading
existing facilities should be prioritized in the following order:
(1) AA&E facilities and installations storing SRC I items.
(2) AA&E facilities and installations storing SRC II items.
(3) AA&E facilities and installations storing SRC III and IV items.
e. When operations unique to an activity, such as a Government-owned AA&E
manufacturing facility, necessitate a divergence from the requirements of this Manual, the threat,
operating environment, and conditions shall be evaluated to tailor the security requirements of
this Manual to include compensatory measures implemented for the protection of AA&E. The
security requirements shall be based on risk management, practicality, cost, and mission
performance. Waivers and exceptions to the requirements of this Manual shall be submitted
according to the provisions for deviations in this Enclosure.
2. PHYSICAL SECURITY DEVIATIONS
a. DoD Components possessing AA&E may deviate from the construction standards of this
Manual for existing facilities if they specify equivalent levels of protection. Exceptions to policy
DoDM 5100.76, April 17, 2012

or waivers, as defined in the Glossary, for non-construction requirements prescribed herein shall
be requested in writing by activities storing AA&E and approved in accordance with procedures
designated by DoD Components. The approval of these requests will be in accordance with
procedures established by the DoD Component and this Manual:
(1) Waivers and exceptions shall be individually considered. Blanket waivers and
exceptions shall not be authorized. Waivers and exceptions shall not be used to reduce or
eliminate security measures outlined in this Manual. The commander or director of an AA&E
storage facility, where a waiver or exception is approved in accordance with the procedures
developed by the DoD Component, shall ensure that prescribed compensatory measures are
implemented as required to ensure the protection of AA&E.
(a) Waivers may be approved for temporary relief from a specific requirement(s)
specified in this Manual pending action to conform to a requirement. A waiver shall be granted
for a 12-month period and shall specify the approval rationale as well as the equivalent
compensatory measures that shall substitute for the waived security requirement(s). DoD
Components may grant a 12-month extension to previously approved waivers. Afterwards, the
waiver shall be processed immediately as an exception to policy.
(b) Exceptions may be approved for permanent relief from a requirement specified in
this Manual. Exceptions shall be granted only when compliance with a requirement from this
Manual would unduly impede mission performance as described and documented in the
exception request. As with waivers, approved exceptions shall specify the rationale for granting
the exception. In addition, approved exceptions shall specify the alternative or compensatory
security measure(s) that shall provide equivalent protection of the excepted security
requirement(s). Exceptions shall be reviewed every 3 years by the granting authority.
(2) Waivers and exception requests involving surface transportation of AA&E shall be
coordinated in advance with the Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command
(SDDC). All waivers and exception requests shall be forwarded by SDDC to the OUSD(I&S).

SENSITIVE CONVENTIONAL AA&E SRC
1. GENERAL. This enclosure outlines processes for identifying the SRC of AA&E based on
utility, casualty or damage effect, adaptability, and portability. The SRC identification process
supports the minimum security requirements to protect AA&E adequately. This enclosure
includes SRC I-IV and provides guidance for uniform identification and coding of AA&E items.
a. On the basis of their relative utility, attractiveness, and availability to criminal and
terrorist elements, AA&E shall be categorized according to the risks involved. Any single
container that contains a variety of spare parts that can be assembled to perform the basic
function of the end item shall be categorized the same as the end item.
b. Section 2 of this enclosure lists those missiles and rockets determined to be sensitive and
assigns appropriate risk categories to them. Conventional missiles and rockets that meet the
definition of SRC I shall be included automatically in that category as they come into the
inventory.
c. Sensitive Conventional AA&E, rocket, and missile SRC and actions for physical security
accountability and transportation shall be standardized throughout the Department of Defense.
These items shall be integrated into standard catalog data by all DoD Components and shall be
included in applicable documents that address physical security, accountability, storage,
transportation, and other related functional activities. DoD Component item managers through
joint-Service coordination shall use the processes outlined in section 4 of this enclosure for
determining the SRC of AA&E for uniform identification and codification of AA&E items.
Examples are in sections 2 and 3 of this enclosure.
d. To ensure a uniform approach to AA&E item identification and coding, DoD Components
shall incorporate the criteria into their respective cataloging policies and procedures.
Additionally, the criteria shall become part of the Federal cataloging system.
e. The DoD Components shall periodically review A&E coding by means of routine catalog
data changes. The exception to applying the methodology specified in this enclosure shall be
when a joint-Service agreement is reached on a case-by-case basis to place an item in a higher or
lower SRC than that indicated by the total numerical value, or when evidence of theft, diversion,
or misuse requires higher coding.
f. The OUSD(I&S), based on threat assessment, evaluated risk, and geographical location,
may determine the requirements for items to be placed in higher risk category or application of
additional security measures. When this method for determining increased protection is applied,
a DoD-wide message shall be prepared and provided to DoD Components.

3. STANDARDS
a. When used for transporting AA&E, the doors of approved intermodal containers (Military
vans (MILVAN), sea vans (SEAVAN), or container express) shall be securely closed and sealed.
End-opening containers shall be placed door-to-door during rail shipments. Barriers on the rail
cars shall be used to protect side-opening containers and deter the opening of such cars. AA&E
shall be placed in the rear of containers behind non-AA&E items, where compatible, to reduce
the opportunity for theft.
(1) In the event of contingencies, exercises, or rotational unit movements where it is not
practical to use approved intermodal containers, only armored vehicles that are locked and sealed
shall be used to ship AA&E. The AA&E shall be provided double barrier protection by placing
it in separate and locked and sealed containers, affixed to the interior of the locked and sealed
armored vehicles in a manner that precludes easy removal.

uploaded, double-barrier protection shall be provided to the extent possible, and the vehicles
shall be locked and sealed.
b. AA&E shipments shall normally be processed through military-operated and managed air
and ocean terminals or through DoD-approved commercial air and ocean terminals. A listing of
such terminals is available from SDDC. Any other method of shipment must be approved by the
USD(I&S).
c. The in-transit protection of AA&E at commercial and military terminals shall be
conducted in accordance with chapter 205 of Reference (j) and applicable SDDC Freight Traffic
Rules. Instances of noncompliance within the United States shall be reported to the SDDC
Operations Center AA&E hotline at (800) 524-0331. Instances of noncompliance outside the

APPENDIX TO ENCLOSURE 10
PHYSICAL SECURITY OF AA&E AT MILITARY TERMINALS
1. GENERAL. This appendix prescribes standards for the protection of conventional AA&E at
military transportation terminals. When terminals provide separate, long-term (over 30 days)
storage capabilities, the criteria of Enclosures 5 and 6 of this Manual, as applicable, pertain to the
structures storing the AA&E.
2. PROTECTION PRIORITIES. The DoD Components responsible for military terminals shall
include the protection of AA&E in overall security plans and allocate and prioritize resources
according to the AA&E order of priority:
a. SRC I cargo.
b. SRC II cargo.
c. SRC III, IV, and uncategorized cargo.
3. SRC IDENTIFICATION. The DoD Components responsible for military terminals shall
establish procedures to ensure prompt identification of SRC cargo in order to provide the
protection required by this Manual. When cargo cannot be immediately identified upon arrival,
it shall be protected as SRC I pending resolution.
4. TEMPORARY STORAGE (LESS THAN 30 DAYS)
a. Fencing and Lighting. SRC I-IV cargo may be temporarily stored outside in dedicated
storage areas that are fenced and lighted. The fence shall meet the requirements of Reference
(aq). The lighting shall be sufficient to allow detection of unauthorized activity.
b. Supplemental Controls. Temporary storage areas, or individual conveyances containing
SRC I-II items, shall be provided with IDS and CCTV as specified in Enclosure 4 or be under
constant surveillance (continually monitored CCTV or human surveillance). Additionally, when
IDS or CCTV is used, a supervised armed guard patrol of the areas or conveyances shall be made
at least once during non-duty hours.
5. CARGO MOVEMENT
a. SRC I and II. Each SRC I conveyance, or integrated grouping of five or fewer
conveyances moved within a terminal, shall be under the constant surveillance of at least one
terminal or contractor employee (under contract to the terminal to handle cargo).
DoDM 5100.76, April 17, 2012
Change 2, 10/05/2020 APPENDIX TO ENCLOSURE 10
73
b. SRC III and IV. Constant surveillance of the cargo in movement within the terminal shall
be maintained by either terminal or contractor employee (under contract to the terminal to handle
cargo). Where the terminal area is physically separated from a long-term storage area,
movement between these areas shall be under the constant surveillance of at least one terminal or
contractor employee (under contract to the terminal to handle cargo) for each conveyance.
c. Terminal Movements. Where the terminal areas are physically separated from a long-
term storage area, movement between these areas shall be under constant employee surveillance,
with at least two drivers meeting applicable requirements of Enclosure 3 for each conveyance.
6. TERMINAL AREA SECURITY
a. Waterfront and Ships at Berth. When AA&E is on board ships at berth, or present at
piers, the area shall be patrolled by a security patrol as prescribed for the highest category of
cargo or patrolled at irregular intervals not to exceed 30 minutes, whichever is more stringent. If
an integrated CCTV and IDS system is employed, security patrols of the area shall be conducted
once every 4 hours during non-duty hours. Waterborne patrols shall be used to augment land-
based patrols where feasible.
b. Terminal Gates and Perimeter Areas. Unless continuously guarded, gates shall be secured
with locking devices approved by the DoD Components. Hinge pins shall be welded, peened, or
otherwise secured. Secured gates and perimeter areas require IDS protection or security patrol
checks at least once every 4 hours. When IDS is used, patrol intervals may extend to 24 hours.
7. SEALS
a. Only seals meeting standards identified in Reference (ad) shall be installed on AA&E
conveyances that have had the original shipping seals removed. Seal checks and inspections for
evidence of breakage or tampering shall be a part of regular patrol or surveillance procedures and
of pier loading procedures. Seals applied to SRC I and II shipments shall be verified by seal
number once every 8 hours during non-duty hours.
b. Lead seals are no longer authorized.
8. GUARD COMMUNICATIONS. Guards shall be provided primary and backup
communications (external and internal) to permit notification of emergency conditions. The
backup system shall be a different mode from the primary. Guards shall use radio as one of the
communication modes. Communication systems shall be tested daily.

9. TERMINAL ENTRY CONTROLS
a. Terminals shall require strict pedestrian and vehicle control systems. Entry records shall
be retained for a minimum of 90 days. Pedestrians and vehicles shall be subject to random
inspection and a visitor control system shall be implemented. Where feasible, entry to the
AA&E storage and processing areas shall be separately controlled from the terminal
administrative areas. Unless allowed by the terminal commander, privately owned vehicles shall
not be permitted into AA&E storage and processing areas.
b. Piers, waterfronts, and AA&E storage and processing areas shall be appropriately
designated and posted as “RESTRICTED OR CONTROLLED AREAS.
