If your unit is based in California, what must you manage WMM according to?

Managing Waste Military Munitions (WMM) requires compliance with both the Military Munitions Rule and applicable state and local laws, especially when your unit is based in California. The Military Munitions Rule establishes federal guidelines to ensure safe management and disposal of waste military munitions, protecting human health and the environment. However, California has its own stringent regulations that often extend beyond federal requirements, necessitating adherence to state and local guidelines to remain compliant.

In this context, the interplay between federal and state regulations underscores the importance of a comprehensive management approach. This means that military units must be diligent in understanding both sets of requirements to operate lawfully and safely. Therefore, it's essential to align the management of WMM with both the Military Munitions Rule and state/local laws to enhance compliance, avoid penalties, and ensure environmental protection.
