NAVY IMPLEMENTATION

• On 5 February 2007, VCNO approved the
  following policy changes affecting PMV Safety

  Leadership that COs and OICs can impose NJP when
  a service member has been charged with DUI, prior
  to civilian adjudication.
• 2. CELL PHONE LIMITATIONS that expand the current
  DoD on-base prohibition of handheld cell phone
  use by drivers to include off-base use as well.
• 3. SELF REPORTING OF TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS mandates
  the reporting of all on and off-base traffic
  violations to ones chain of command.

• Establishing a mandatory 8 hours bottle to work
  place for all personnel and establishing a
  maximum BAC of .04 for any personnel reporting to
  work.
• Authorizing the maximum use of Breathalyzers at
  the command level to enforce the .04 max BAC.
• Peer Accountability Pg 13 Entries that inform
  Sailors that they will be held accountable for
  intervening when they observe their peers getting
  in trouble or violating standards on liberty.
• Reiterating the existing policy that COs can take
  a Sailor to Mast for DUI prior to a civil
  conviction being adjudicated.
• Setting maximum driving distances and hours
  behind the wheel while on leave/liberty
• Changes to the standard Leave Request form, which
  will draw attention to the new policy changes.
