(2) CMC SD (ESB 21-02) - PER ESB GUIDANCE, DRAFT A MESSAGE IMMEDIATELY WHICH ELIMINATES COLOR AND REFLECTIVITY REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO MOTORCYCLE OUTERWEAR AS SPECIFIED IN REFERENCE B.

(3) ESB MEMBERS (ESB 21-03) - NLT 30 JUNE 2009, PROVIDE INPUT TO ACMC (VIA CMC SD) REGARDING A POTENTIAL CHANGE TO REFERENCE B THAT WOULD MANDATE PROTECTIVE JACKETS FOR MOTORCYCLE RIDERS.  MEMBERS SHOULD CONSIDER ANY POTENTIAL REQUIREMENT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SPORTBIKE RIDERS AND OTHER RIDERS.
(4) MARFORPAC/MARFORCOM/MCCDC/MARLOGCOM (ESB 21-04) - IN ASSOCIATION WITH ESB 21-02 TASKING, ALIGN CURRENT DIRECTIVES ON MOTORCYCLE PPE REQUIREMENTS WITH CHANGES OUTLINED IN REFERENCE C.  THIS ALIGNMENT WILL STANDARDIZE MOTORCYCLE PPE REQUIREMENTS ACROSS ALL MARINE CORPS BASES AND AIR STATIONS. (5) DC M&RA/CMC SD (ESB 21-05) - DEVELOP POLICY TO PROVIDE MARINES AND SAILORS A VOUCHER FOR PURCHASE OF MOTORCYCLE PPE AT MARINE CORPS COMMUNITY SERVICES (MCCS) RETAIL FACILITIES UPON COMPLETION OF MARINE CORPS PROVIDED MOTORCYCLE SAFETY FOUNDATION MOTORCYCLE TRAINING (E.G., BASIC RIDER COURSE, EXPERIENCED RIDER COURSE, AND MILITARY SPORTBIKE RIDER COURSE).  ENSURE MCCS RETAIL FACILITIES CONTINUE TO PROVIDE HIGH-QUALITY MOTORCYCLE PPE FOR PURCHASE.
(6) MCI-E/MCI-W/MCB JAPAN/MCB HAWAII/MCB QUANTICO (ESB 21-06) - CONDUCT VOLUNTARY, STRUCTURED 'TRACK DAY' EVENTS FOR A ONE YEAR BETA TEST.  THESE TRACK DAYS SHOULD INCORPORATE THE BEST FEATURES OF THE BETA TEST EVENTS CONDUCTED SINCE THE 20TH ESB.  FREQUENCY OF THE TRACK DAY EVENTS WILL BE DETERMINED LOCALLY.  REPORT YOUR FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS AT THE 23RD ESB (MAY 2010).
