    Team Anniston,In a few short weeks, I will pass the guidon of lead-

    ership to my successor and I wanted to take few mo-ments to say farewell.

    As I stated during my arrival, Anniston was my first choice and I can truly say this has been a great journey. The depot and the community embraced my family and me from the moment of our arrival.

    We are eternally grateful for the open arms, friendship and the camaraderie fos-tered over the last two years.

    Any departure encompasses mixed sen-timents. I will focus on the immense sense of pride I have in looking back through the rear view mirror of the many accomplish-ments of Anniston Army Depot.

    We have endeavored and achieved many successes over the past two years. Through your hard work, dedication and devotion to excellence, Anniston Army Depot has achieved unprecedented levels of success. This depot achieved its first 100% schedule confor-mance and consistently achieves 95% or better in per-formance to priority.

    You continued to improve our safety record and improved quality to the highest levels seen in our con-temporary operating environment, receiving accolades from Program Managers and PEOs for this significant transition to a quality-driven organization.

    This is even more significant considering the con-tinued increases in planned and unplanned readiness requirements and workload changes throughout the years.

    Anniston Army Depot continues to accept those challenges and delivers without hesitation.

    Our purpose today is as it was two years ago. An-niston Army Depot must remain resolved in producing readiness today and postured to surge when required.

    The Army knows Anniston is instrumental in meet-ing the nation’s readiness requirements. This focus, this intensity, the competitive spirit is shared from the directors and staff to the employees on the shop floor

    and across our tenants, partners and contractors. It takes all of us to ensure Army readiness.

    Your role is crucial in making sure the Soldiers have the right equipment at the right place at the right time.

    I also reflect on the immense impact of this organi-zation to our warfighter. We must remain vigilant and remember - “When a Soldier pulls the lanyard, starts the engine, or moves the selector switch from safety to fire – the equipment cannot fail. It has to perform in the roughest, most austere environments in the world.”

    At any given day, any given operation-al environment, on any given mission - it is our sons, our daughters, neighbors and friends depending on Anniston Army De-pot.

    As I pass the torch to Col. Marvin Walker on July 25, I ask that you keep the momentum going.

    Walker comes with a wealth of experi-ence and I have full confidence Anniston will continue to meet and exceed all expec-tations.

    While the bar has been raised, we must not rest. Continue to exceed those challenges set before you and continue to keep Anniston in the forefront – you are the best of the best.

    I am approaching retirement and with that comes the opportunity for the Warhurst family to call Ala-bama home.

    I and the Warhurst family thank you for the oppor-tunity to serve with Anniston Army Depot.

    I am immensely appreciative of all you do. I com-plete this command tour with respect and admiration of the patriots who serve at ANAD – you made this journey the high point of my career.

    Thank You for your service and support. I wish An-niston Army Depot continued blessings.

    Army Strong HOOAH!

    If you work after leaving your job with the federal service, there are post-employment restrictions contained in the Joint Ethics Regulation which you must follow.

    If you seek outside employment while you are still working at ANAD, restrictions apply as well.

    If you seek non-federal employment while working at ANAD, you must not work on a particular matter which could have an effect on your financial interests or the fi-nancial interests of persons or companies with whom you are seeking employment or with whom you are negotiat-ing for employment.

    While you are seeking outside employment and work-ing at ANAD, you must disqualify yourself, in writing, from participating in any particular matter which could affect your financial interests or the financial interests of a person or company with whom you are negotiating for employment.

    Violation of these rules is a criminal offense.After you leave federal employment, there are restric-

    tions on the type of work you can perform for your new employer before any federal agency.

    You may never communicate with any federal agency with the intent to influence the federal agency on behalf of an outside employer regarding a particular matter and specific parties in which you participated personally and substantially as a federal employee.

    For two years after you leave government service, you may not represent any person or private company before any federal agency or court regarding matters under your official responsibility during your last year of government service, even if you did not work on those matters directly.

    The post-employment restrictions are aimed at your interaction with government personnel on behalf of per-sons or private companies. They are not aimed at your “behind the scenes” work for a private employer.

    If you are working for a private employer behind the scenes and not interacting with government personnel on behalf of your employer, you cannot exercise undue influ-ence with the government.

    When you work behind the scenes for a private em-ployer, you are using your expertise, which is fine, you just may not represent your private employer before any federal agency.

    If you have questions regarding the application of these rules to an outside job you plan for the future, con-tact the ANAD Legal Office at 256-235-6773.

    On sunny afternoons, when people travel through town and drive past car dealerships with new models out front, the first impression is often the color of the ve-hicle.

    Just like with new car dealerships, whenever a combat vehicle or artillery equipment leaves Anniston Army Depot after an overhaul or repair, the first impres-sion is the paint job.

    To have fantastic looking paint jobs on the equipment as it leaves the installation, painters have a multitude of safety tasks and pre-checks to complete prior to apply-ing the first coat of paint.

    With most painting applications, the paint itself can be flammable or, in some cases, hazardous.

    Each time a paint product is used, the Safety Data Sheet provides critical infor-mation required to protect the painter from hazards, such as using proper ventilation or personal protective equipment.

    The proper ventilation or PPE can in-clude chemical resistant protective cloth-ing, gloves, footwear and, most important-ly, respiratory protection equipment.

    Here are some tips for proper care of respiratory protection equipment:

    • All respirators must be stored to pro-tect them from damage, contamination, dust, sunlight, extreme temperatures, ex-cessive moisture and damaging chemicals.

    • Ensure hoods are hung to prevent

    dust accumulation. Do not tuck the cape into the helmet.

    • If you use a plastic bag for storage and the respirator has excessive moisture from sweat, ensure the bag is over the res-pirator with the bag opening facing toward the floor and leave bottom of bag open to allow drying of moisture and prevent mil-dew.

    • Respirators should never be left in a paint booth or paint spray area.

    Spray finishing operations, which use flammable and combustible liquids can create an explosive atmosphere. That’s why the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the National Fire Pre-vention Association enforce the following safety controls on spray paint booths.

    • Three feet of clearance must be maintained on all sides and above the spray booth.

    • All areas of the booth must be readily accessible for maintenance and cleaning.

    • Mechanical ventilation system must be equipped a with noncombustible filter system.

    • Smoking must be strictly prohibited and signs posted.

    • The booth must be protected with an approved automatic fire protection system.

    • All metal parts of the booth must be electrically grounded to prevent static dis-charge.

    When using paint or other flammable products, non-sparking tools must be used.

    Non-sparking tools are made of materi-als which do not contain iron (non-ferrous

    metals) and, therefore, reduce the risk of a spark being created while the tool is in use.

    Non-sparking tools protect against both fire and explosion in environments that may contain flammable liquids, va-pors, dusts or residues.

    Paints and other flammable painting products should be stored in flammable cabinets or areas designated for the storage of flammable items.

    Flammable Locker Requirements: • Lockers must have a label: “Flam-

    mable – Keep Fire Away.”• Routinely inspect all lockers.

    • Know your chemicals – consult the SDS.

    • Keep all containers in the locker closed.

    • Always store materials in a neat and orderly manner.

    • Eliminate potential ignition sources.• Never store combustible materials

    (paper, cardboard) on, in or near flamma-ble lockers.

    • Don’t place the flammable storage locker by an exit door or in a stairwell.

    All spraying areas should be kept as free from the accumulation of deposits of combustible residues as practical, with cleaning conducted daily, if necessary.

    Scrapers, spuds or other tools used for cleaning purposes should be of non-spark-ing material.

    Housekeeping is a valuable practice in all shops, but very critical in paint booths and paint spray areas.

    Keeping paint and paint related prod-ucts covered and bonded or grounded are important measures to keep employees save.

    These practices are especially neces-sary when mixing paint and cleaning up afterward.

    There is a lot more to being a painter at ANAD than just spraying paint.

    The next time you see a freshly paint-ed M-1 tank, Stryker or piece of artillery ready to move out to the Soldiers, Marines or other customers in the field, remember depot employees are working safely to make the equipment look new again.

    Phase 1 of the transition of Recycling services to solid waste services for wood and cardboard began July 8.

    Phase 1 focused on the southeastern most area, surrounding Building 400.

    Phase 2 will begin July 22 and will fo-cus on the western side of the industrial area.

    During this time, QRP boxes for wood and cardboard will be swapped out for Ad-vanced Disposal boxes.

    Buildings receiving curbside removal

    services should begin adjusting to the process of moving wood and cardboard to rolloffs staged in central locations

    throughout the industrial area. The boxes will be placed so no single

    shop has to travel an undue distance to

    properly dispose of their waste. Shop su-pervisors are encouraged to begin clearing a preferred space for wood and/or card-board 20-yard boxes near their shops or in ideal shared locations.

    The Directorate of Risk Management asks everyone to look for markings speci-fying the type of waste for each box.

    Signs will say “Wood Only” or “Card-board Only.”

    Please do not put pallets and cardboard in the construction and demolition boxes.

    I can be reached at Ext. 6544 to discuss shop input for box placement and other questions, comments or concerns.

    Due to the large number of inquiries submitted from employees regarding their application status, the following informa-tion is provided to help clarify the résumé and application process required by USA Staffing.

    • Your résumé may be submitted in any format. You may copy and paste it into the provided area online or it may be scanned and uploaded. If you submit a résumé with inappropriate material, such as photos, you will not be considered for the position.

    • Your résumé must include both work and personal information. Per-sonal information includes your full name, current address, current e-mail address and current phone number.

    • For qualifications determinations, work information that must be provided lists the number of hours worked per week and the dates of employment (i.e., hours per week and month/year to month/year or month/year to present). Résumés that do not contain this information will be marked as insufficient and applicants will not receive consideration for the position.

    • Work experience gained via tem-porary detail must be listed separately on your résumé and all of the information listed above should be provided. In addi-tion, if the work was performed for less than 40 hours per week, you must identify the percentage of time spent performing the work. This work experience will only

    be credited when documented by satisfac-tory evidence, such as a memorandum from the manager or human resources, an SF-52 or other appropriate documenta-tion.

    • When responding to the occupa-tional questionnaire, all “E” responses are considered expert level experience and must be documented and supported in your résumé. You must identify in your ré-sumé the position, employment dates and organization that supports your expert ex-perience for the corresponding narrative. If you do not list this information in the occupational questionnaire, your applica-tion will be marked as incomplete.

    • Your résumé must support your responses to the online questionnaire. If your application contradicts or does not support your questionnaire responses, you will receive a rating of “not qualified” or “incomplete application” and you will not receive further consideration for the job.

    • If the position has an education requirement or you are qualifying based on a combination of education and expe-rience or solely on education, you must submit your college transcripts with your application. For example, if a position re-quires a BA, make sure you include the correct transcript that shows that you re-ceived the BA.

    • For eligibility determination, you must submit a recent, SF-50 when apply-ing for an appropriated fund position or a DD3434 for a non-appropriated fund po-sition in USA Jobs. Lack of submission will result in your application not being

    rated and marked as an incomplete pack-age. Be sure you are submitting a SF-50, not a SF-52. The SF-52 is not an official processed personnel action and is not ac-ceptable.

    • Update your SF-50 when a new personnel action is processed.

    • Ensure you carefully read all ar-eas of consideration, conditions of em-ployment, minimum requirements, selec-tive factors, and questions on the question-naire and answer all completely and truth-fully. All responses may not require the same “yes” response. For example, you may respond “yes” to the question “Are you willing to submit to an annual physi-cal” and “no” to “Have you ever been con-victed of domestic violence.”

    • For Veterans preference determi-nation or military spouse preference, you must submit supporting documents with your application package in USA Jobs. These documents may include, but are not limited to: PCS orders and mar-riage certificate or a DD214 (which indi-cates character of service), SF-15, VA let-ter and/or activation/deactivation orders.

    • Read the vacancy announcement and ensure you meet the minimum re-quirements and specialized skills. If so, ensure that your résumé reflects these re-quirements and specialized skills. Do not plagiarize.

    To create a USA Jobs account, which is needed to self-nominate for a vacancy announcement, go to my.usajobs.gov/ac-count/login or visit www.armycivilianser-vice.com for more information.

    Tips for submitting a résumé on USA Jobsfrom Staff Reports

    Anniston CPAC Office

    An educated Army Com-munity, led by knowledgeable, informed leaders, is essential to establishing an effective cli-mate of sexual harassment and assault prevention.

    Among the Army’s inno-vations in training is its inte-gration of sexual harassment and sexual assault training to address prevention at the ear-liest point in the continuum of harm. This approach is de-

    signed to address behaviors before they escalate into more serious offenses.

    Leaders across the Army are taught about sexual assault myths and facts, fostering a preventive culture, ensuring a safe reporting environment, and ensuring appropriate ac-countability.

    Soldiers and DA Civilians are taught how they can influ-ence the safety of the Army Community and the work-place.

    Following are the Army’s

    Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention pro-gram goals:

    • Create a climate of dig-nity and respect for all and re-duce the risk of sexual harass-ment and assault incidents. If an incident should occur, the SHARP Program ensures vic-tims and subjects are treated according to Army policy.

    • Create a climate that en-courages victims and bystand-ers to report incidents of sex-ual harassment/assault without fear.

    • Establish sexual harass-ment/assault prevention train-ing and awareness programs to educate Soldiers and civilians.

    • Ensure comprehensive treatment resources are made available to restore victims’ health and well-being.

    • Ensure leaders under-stand their roles and respon-sibilities regarding response to sexual harassment/assault victims, thoroughly investi-gate allegations, and take ap-propriate administrative and disciplinary action.
