6. The ESI will be conducted using risk based inspection criteria to assess potential explosives safety hazards, their severity, and the probability of a mishap (or negative operational impact)
A Risk Assessment Code (RAC) will be applied to each finding using the Risk Assessment Matrix per MCO C
The resulting RAC code will assist the ESI team in determining the overall severity of the finding and will be considered during the inspection rating process

7. A B C Can the finding directly lead to a mishap? No
Violation of DoD, DON or MCO? No
Violation of Local Orders or SOPs? No
Reconsider Finding
Yes
Yes
Class A Mishap
Cost of damages to DoD or non-DoD property in an amount of $2 million or more;
DoD aircraft is destroyed;
Injury and/or occupational illness result in a fatality or permanent total disability.
Yes
Does the violation endanger personnel, equipment or facilities? A
Yes
SEVERITY LEVEL No
Class B Mishap
Cost of damages to DoD or non-DoD property is >$500K but <$2M.
An injury and/or occupational illness result in permanent partial disability or when three or more personnel are hospitalized for Inpatient care (beyond observation) as a result of a single mishap.
Class A
Yes
Yes
Level 1
Does the violation involve loss of CAT I/II AA&E? B No No
Does the violation cause MAJOR negative operational impact or security failure?
Class B
Yes
Yes
Level 2 No
Class C Mishap
Cost of damages to DoD or non-DoD property is >$50K, but <$500K
An event involving one or more DoD personnel that results in one or more days away from work. No C No
Does the violation cause MINOR negative operational impact or security failure?
Class C
Yes
Yes
Level 3
Little or no adverse impact on mission capability or unit readiness
Minimal threat to personnel safety or health
Slight equipment or systems damage, but fully functional and serviceable
Little or no property or environmental damage No No
Level 4
Level 4

8. Defining Probability in a Qualitative Risk Assessment
LIKELY
Subcategory A
Likely to occur immediately or within a short period of time.
Initiated by one causal factor (action)
PROBABLE
Subcategory B
Probably will occur in time.
Initiated by two causal factors (actions)
MAY OCCUR
Subcategory C
May occur in time.
Initiated by three causal factors (actions)
UNLIKELY
Subcategory D
Unlikely but possible
Initiated by four or more causal factors (actions)

9. Risk Assessment Matrix
Risk Assessment Code – Applied to Finding

MAY OCCUR IN TIME
UNLIKELY BUT POSSIBLE A B C D
SEVERITY LEVEL I
CRITICAL
SERIOUS
MODERATE II
MINOR
III
NEGLIGABLE IV

10. Level of risk determines corrective action priority
Risk Level
Corrective Action Priority
CRITICAL
Correct or mitigate IMMEDIATELY
SERIOUS
Correct or mitigate PROMPTLY (48 Hrs)
MODERATE
Correct timely
MINOR
Routine
NEGLIGIBLE
Submit CAP response to the MCIEAST ESO within 30 days

11. Critical and Serious are considered Explosives Safety-Critical
The ESO team will apply a RAC to each finding identified during the ESSA
Critical and Serious are considered Explosives Safety-Critical
The following criteria applies to the overall ESSA rating:
No EXPLOSIVES SAFETY-CRITICAL (Critical/Serious) Findings
SATISFACTORY ESSA
One SERIOUS finding in any given program will result in the program being UNSAT
May require a re-inspection of the UNSAT program
SATISFACTORY ESSA with an UNSAT Program
One CRITICAL Finding in any Program or;
Two UNSATISFACTORY programs
Requires a re-inspection
UNSATISFACTORY ESSA
