Do not wait for notification of the air det to
mount-out to start acquiring the required forms. If
you do, you may find the dispatcher, license
examiner, mechanic shop, or the supply department
not having enough forms in stock to supply the needs
for the daily operations of the equipment platoon.
TABLE OF ALLOWANCE (TOA)
The table of allowance (TOA) outfits the
Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) with
the tools and equipment to perform construction
operations under contingency conditions for 90 days
(1,800
construction
hours)
without
resupply;
however, fuel and subsistence are limited to 15 days
support, and construction materials are not part of
the TOA. The area commander/project sponsor
requiring the utilization of Seabees is responsible for
the procurement and shipment of construction
materials.
The Civil Engineer Support Office (CESO),
Port Hueneme, California, is the system manager
responsible for maintaining the Naval Construction
Force (NCF) TOAs. CESO develops new allowances
as directed by COMNAVFACENGCOM and collects
field recommendations for revisions to existing TOAs.
The TOA represents the best selection of tools and
supplies needed to provide general construction
capabilities, However, the TOA is not capable of
meeting every operational requirement. When an
assigned project requires tools or equipment in excess
of the capability of the unit, the allowance must be
supplemented by augmentation.
An NMCB TOA is divided into three echelons:
the air detachment (TA41), air echelon (TA31) minus
the air det, and sea echelon (TA22). The echelons are
based on anticipated prioritization of personnel,
material, equipment, and the availability of airlift
versus sealift support.
The equipment platoon supervisor and the lead
mechanic should review the TA41 and request the
