scope:

This instruction has been coordinated with Headquarters, U.S. Marine Corps, and applies to training devices for all warfare areas developed and produced for Department of the Navy use. Under the responsibilities set forth in Presidential Executive Order 12344 of 1 February 1982, as codified in Public Law 98-525 of 19 October 1984, the Department of Energy (DOE) has cognizance over the development of training systems and devices used in the training of naval nuclear propulsion plant operators. Accordingly, such systems and devices are not covered by this instruction, but are coordinated separately with DOE.
