GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  PURPOSE.  TO PUBLISH INTERIM LICENSING GUIDANCE FOR TACTICAL MOTOR TRANSPORT EQUIPMENT TO INCLUDE MRAP/M-ATV FOV, LVSR, PLST, AND MK/AMK31/M870A2 AND M870A2E1 LICENSING REQUIREMENTS.  THIS MESSAGE IS EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY AND SUPERSEDES REF A.  INCIDENTAL AND UPGRADED LICENSES WILL BE OBTAINED IAW REF B.
2.  BACKGROUND, MRAP FOV.  THE CURRENT MRAP VEHICLE LICENSING GUIDANCE MARADMIN REF A HAS BEEN IN PLACE SINCE NOVEMBER 2008.  IT WAS CREATED TO HELP ALLEVIATE THE BURDEN ON DEPLOYING UNITS REQUIRING A MINIMUM NUMBER OF LICENSED OPERATORS TO MORE RAPIDLY ATTAIN AN UPGRADE TO THE MRAP LICENSE IN SUPPORT OF MISSION REQUIREMENTS AND TO IMPROVE DRIVER AWARENESS AND SAFETY CONCERNS REDUCING ACCIDENTS AND ROLLOVERS.  ALL OPERATORS ARE UPGRADED PER REF B.  OPFORS HAVE BEEN FIELDED ADDITIONAL VARIANTS OF MRAP FOV (MAXXPRO DASH AND M-ATV) TO SUPPORT HOME STATION TRAINING (HST) AND DEPLOYMENT REQUIREMENTS.  NEW EQUIPMENT TRAINING (NET) FOR M-ATV IS REQUIRED FOR ALL OPERATORS.  LOCAL MEF MTOS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR COORDINATING NET WITH MCSC PROGRAM MANAGER.
3.  LICENSING, MRAP FOV.
A.  LICENSING REQUIREMENTS FOR THE MRAP CAT I/II ARE LISTED IN REF B AND ORIGINALLY WERE GEARED TOWARDS THE FPII MRAP VARIANTS USED BY USMC PERSONNEL.  MAXXPRO DASH CAT I MRAP AND M-ATV VARIANTS ARE NOT CURRENTLY LISTED IN REF B.  HST TRAINING WILL CONSIST OF THE FOLLOWING: OPERATORS MUST POSSESS A VALID CIVILIAN STATE LICENSE AND UAH/ECV LICENSE (OF-346).  IF 26 YEARS OLD AND UNDER MUST HAVE COMPLETED THE USMC APPROVED DRIVERS IMPROVEMENT COURSE (DIC) AND MUST MEET THE HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS STATED IN REF B.  REF C IS UNDER REWRITE AND WILL INCLUDE THE SAME HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS.  353X MARINES CURRENTLY ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A VALID STATE LICENSE IAW REF E.
B.  ALL OPERATORS UPGRADING TO ANOTHER VARIANT OF MRAP FOV TO INCLUDE THE M-ATV WILL BE REQUIRED TO RECEIVE CLASSROOM TRAINING, TESTING PER REF B, PRACTICAL APPLICATION ON OPERATOR CREW LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE (LOM), AND TRAINING ON THE CHARACTERISTICS OF EACH VARIANT OF MRAP FOV THEY WILL BE OPERATING.
C.  PER REF B, ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER (OEM) TRAINING AND INSTRUCTOR AND KEY PERSONNEL TRAINING (I KPT) SATISFIES ALL CLASSROOM AND PRACTICAL APPLICATION TRAINING.  HOWEVER; IT DOES NOT SATISFY THE ROAD TIME NECESSARY TO OBTAIN AN (OF-346) LICENSE UPGRADE.  IAW REF B, ALL OPERATORS WILL BE REQUIRED TO OBTAIN A MINIMUM OF 125 MILES OF DOCUMENTED ROAD TIME PER THE FOLLOWING CHART WHEN UPGRADING FROM UAH/ECV LICENSE TO AN MTVR, M-ATV OR ANY VARIANT OF MRAP CAT I/II FOV.  READ IN TWO COLUMNS.
