Packaging and packaging materials associated with supply items are a major component of shipboard solid wastes. A program to maximize their disposability has been undertaken. Criteria for rating shipboard disposability characteristics of packaging materials constrained by shipboard process capabilities to handle the materials have been developed. 'Fact' sheets have been compiled, establishing disposability ratings for individual categories of packaging materials. The first edition of the catalog of fact sheets is intended for distribution to cognizant personnel for comments and suggestions which can be used as guidance for preparing an updated document.
