To whom must unauthorized MPPEH transfer or release be reported?

• A. Local law enforcement
• B. On-site supervisor
• C. Regulatory agency
• D. NOSSA

Answer: (D)

Reporting unauthorized MPPEH transfer or release to NOSSA ensures the incident is handled through the Navy’s explosive safety and accountability authority. NOSSA coordinates the official investigation, risk assessment, and disposal or remediation, preserving the chain of custody and ensuring proper follow-up at the appropriate level. While immediate containment and initial notification may involve the on-site supervisor, the formal reporting channel for MPPEH incidents is NOSSA, so that records are centralized, safety protocols are consistently applied, and any required coordination with other agencies can be triggered promptly.
