General Information 1-1. Purpose This outline provides a base plan for range operations and range safety, from which commanders can design safe realistic training that meets the needs of their subordinate units for conducting an effective Training phase of IED’s, EFP’s, and VBIED’s. 1-2. References ARTEP 7-1 DRILL, TC 20-32-5 Commander's Reference Guide: Land Mine and Explosive Hazards (Iraq) FM 3-90.119/MCIP 3-17.01, Combined Arms Improvised Explosive Device defeat operations.

Safety Statement a. Camp Ripley promotes safety driven realistic training. Safety is first and should not be compromised in the interest of realism. No one’s life is worth the best training environment. Ensure everyone training on the IED Lane understands the information listed in this SOP is for his or her safety and the safety of others. b. Commanders are ultimately responsible for the unit’s safety. It is the POC’s responsibility to ensure soldiers have planned for and are continually thinking about necessary safety requirements on the range. Risk management should be the most important part of your planning process. To help you in planning for and mitigating risks found during planning is a composite risk management card and detail instructions on risk management. The composite risk management card in Appendix A. c. This SOP does not replace regulations, doctrine, or guidance contained in the Camp Ripley Range Regulations or Department of the Army administrative and doctrinal publications.

Chapter 3

Definition of Crawl and Walk 3-1. Crawl a. Unit conducts Situational Training Exercises (STX) involving scenarios that include all aspects of possible conflict with suspected enemy forces or in areas that are determined to be unfriendly. The STX will NOT include any blank ammunition, but will serve as a walk-through of the range to identify all known possibilities of enemy threat against friendly forces. b. Threats against a moving convoy may include, but are not limited to, the following: 1) Blocked Ambush (Daytime or Nighttime) with direct and indirect fire. 2) Unblocked Ambush (Daytime or Nighttime) with direct and indirect fire. 3) Snipers 4) Mines (any type) 5) IEDs/VBIEDs: Homemade explosive devices (can be found any time, any where). 6) Human intervention: This may include a crowd or individuals of a hostile or desperate nature, looking for food, etc. 7) Suicide bombers: May include one person, many people, or a vehicle. 8) Hostile aircraft 9) Inclement weather 3-2. Walk Unit conducts STX as identified in the CRAWL phase, but have fine-tuned the training and key leaders’ positions. This phase should include IED Simulators, pyrotechnics, MILES, and blank ammunition. This event may include OC evaluations and assessments. 3-3. Run Unit prepares for, and conducts, a Live Fire Exercise (LFX) involving the same scenarios as CRAWL and WALK phases, but incorporates the use of live ammunition on a controlled live fire range. This event can be accomplished on the CLFX (Convoy Live Fire Exercise) Range. See the current Camp Ripley Range Regulation and the CLFX SOP for more information.

Chapter 4

Environmental Guidance 4-1. General The prevention of environmental damage in the maneuver area is everyone’s responsibility. Only through responsible use of training areas will we be able to preserve our maneuver area as a quality training area. A senior NCO of the using unit must attend a Range Control Briefing (valid for one year) prior to range usage. 4-2. Purpose The purpose of this section is to inform units of environmental damage prevention measures that must be enforced while in the Field Training Area. There are certain activities that require approval from the Environmental Management Office or the Natural Resources Management Division: Laundry Sites, Shower Sites, Fueling Points, Water Purification Points, Vehicle Decontamination, and Timber Cutting. 4-3. POL Spill Control Any person causing or discovering a spill will: a. Stop the flow, if possible, without exposing self or others to unsafe conditions. Actions taken should not exceed the level of expertise, knowledge, or training of the person causing or discovering the spill. b. Contain the spill using whatever means that are readily available. Prevent the spills from flowing into drainage and surface waters. c. Immediately report all POL spills to Range Control (320-616-3137/3134), or on the range’s primary form of communication. Furnish essential spill information: grid location, material spilled, the cause, time of incident, and estimated quantity spilled. The person reporting the spill should also furnish their name, unit, rank, unit address, and telephone number. A Spill Report Form will be brought out to the range to be filled out, or the reporting person will need to contact Range Control to fill it out. d. Clean up spill material. 1) If the amount of contaminated soil is less than what would fit in a 55-gallon drum, dig it out, and transport it to the Solid Waste Transfer Station, located SW of Range Control. If the Transfer Station is closed, bring the material to Range Control. Plastic bags may be obtained from Range Control to transport the contaminated material. 2) If the amount is greater than what would fit in a 55-gallon drum, earthmoving equipment will probably be required for removal. Units are responsible for showing Range Control personnel the location of the spill. 3) Units will complete the Spill Report Form MNGR 200-21-0510, and turn it in to Range Control as soon as possible. 4-4. Additional Information See Chapter 19 of the Camp Ripley Range Regulation for complete environmental information, or contact the Training Area Coordinator at Range Control. a. All trash and garbage must be cleaned up and transported by the units to Cantonment, and brought to the transfer station or the barrack’s dumpsters. b. Field latrines will be located a minimum of 100m from the unit mess and open waste. When training has been completed, it will be closed/covered and marked. c. Troops are prohibited from feeding, harassing, or firing at any wildlife. d. Do not cut evergreens. Hardwoods up to 2 inches in diameter may be cut for concealment. Use of dead trees for cover is allowed. Commercial woodcuts and tree plantations are off limits to troop wood cutting. e. Fires down range are strictly prohibited. Use of Burning Barrels may be requested by submitting an Exception to Policy Request to Range Control at least 24 hours prior to planned usage.

APPENDIX A

RISK MANAGEMENT Appendix A offers the current form used to calculate the risk involved in any training exercise. All personnel in leadership positions should be familiar with risk assessment procedures. Leaders are encouraged to use these forms along with common sense to determine the risk and safety of all exercises. The following Risk Management Worksheets can be found in the MN National Guard Intranet Portal site, by following these steps: go to MN Intranet Portal, click on JFHQ-MN, click on SPECIAL STAFF, click on State Safety Office, and finally click on Safety Forms. The Risk Management section is at the bottom of the page. The worksheets can be filled out and printed while the user is on-line. The Deliberate MNARNG Risk Management Card is too large a file to be added into this document.
