Sustainment Planning Factors 07 December 2020 ATP 5-0.2-1 265 Ice and Bottled Water G-52. Procedures for ordering and issuing ice are contained in DA Pam 30-22. Potable ice required for installation needs, regardless of source, are made, stored, and conveyed per TB MED 530. CL I : Bulk Water G-53. Bulk water planning follows the military decision-making process in terms of identifying capabilities, requirements, and shortfalls. G-54. Calculate bulk water needs on a per-person, per-day cycle. Adjust water consumption requirements with historical data as an operation progresses. Common requirements for water in theater are listed in table G-23 on page 280 and tables G-24 and G-25 on page 281. Table G-26 on page 281 details bulk water storage and transport capacity. CL II G-55. CL II includes clothing, individual equipment, tentage; tool sets and kits, hand tools, administrative and housekeeping supplies, and equipment. Equipment includes maps, automation, and other equipment items (except major end items prescribed in allowance tables) and items of supply (not including repair parts). Supply of CL II is resourced and filled by requisition and conducted through regular supply chains from provider to user. Some CL II items are stocked in the supply support activity. CL III (P) G-56. Packaged petroleum and lubricant items such as grease and hydraulic fluid fall under CL III (P). Some fuels found only in small quantities are also supplied under CL III (P). These items are supplied as part of a unit's authorized stock, shop stock, and maintenance authorizations. Most units deploy with 15-30 days of packaged lubricants on hand as part of their stockage listing. They are replaced by re-supply through automated stockage requests, based on recorded use, or by individual request. Estimates for petroleum, oils, and lubricants (POL) are maintained by the maintenance officer section of the requesting unit and typically consolidated by the next sustainment unit (FSC, BSB, DSB, or ESC) and re-supplied through the same chain. CL III (B) G-57. Bulk fuel operations are equally complex and necessary to sustain forces in offensive and defensive operations. The most common way to conduct bulk fuel operations is to maintain bulk storage as near to an operation as possible. Defense Logistics Agency-Energy provides theater-wide bulk fuel to the joint force. The TSC requisitions fuel from Defense Logistics Agency-Energy based on theater requirements. Bulk fuel is distributed by a combination of military and contracted capabilities using the theater distribution network. The typical delivery method is ground, but aerial resupply is a viable means for small quantities (see refueling operations beginning at paragraph G-76 for more details and estimate tables). CL IV G-58. CL IV comprises construction materials, to include installed equipment and all fortification and barrier materials. CL IV supplies are requisitioned to support specified projects. Engineers at all echelons anticipate and frequently require large quantities of CL IV for the conduct of operations. Estimates for CL IV supplies are based on the operations plan or order. Procurement of CL IV begins as soon as the plan and estimate are validated. Lead times for delivery are reduced by forecasting, using standard operating procedures (SOPs), and developing requests as early as possible. Local procurement, whenever feasible, is another way to expedite delivery. CLASS V G-59. Weapon density, number of personnel, and specific mission requirements determine the forecast. UBL varies with each operation. Note that there is no "one size fits all" UBL for an entire operation. Each combat phase may require unique ammunition.
