THE INSPECTION REPORT. For each inspection, a report is
prepared. The report includes facility plans with updated descriptions, such as:
size and pile arrangement, an evaluation of the assessed conditions, and
recommendations for further action. The report should provide enough technical
detail to support the assessments and recommendations. Paragraph 5.3
provides guidance for preparing inspection documentation to be used in
preparing the report.
NAVFAC MO-322, Inspection of Shore Facilities calls for a three-part
inspection report package for shore facilities consisting of a: facility inspection
checklist, facility condition summary report sheet, and facility condition detailed
deficiency list. Forms for these three sections are shown in Chapter 4, Volume 1
of MO-322. They are, however, geared more for inspecting buildings and are not
specifically designed for waterfront structures.
Since waterfront inspections are specialized, a report format such as
the one presented in Table 5-7 would be more appropriate. This format is used
by NFESC East Coast when conducting underwater inspections and
assessments at Naval waterfront facilities.
