NMCPHCINST 6270.8 Health Hazard Assessment (HHA) Program Test Standard

We provide comprehensive support to Navy and Marine Corps activities and procurement programs, including health hazard and toxicological assessments for new products or programs, new uses, procedures and processes for existing products. The Navy or Marine Corps sponsor identifies a product, program, or process to be reviewed and forwards supporting documentation to the NMCPHC. As a minimum, the HHA report provides an assessment of hazards and risks, recommends process changes or alternative chemicals to consider, and lists the operation-specific personal protective equipment and controls necessary to ensure personnel are protected.
