b. Title, number, and date of the applicable specification sheet, and the complete type designation (see 1.2.1 and

c. Levels of preservation and packaging and packing, and applicable marking (see section 5).

6.3 Qualification. With respect to products requiring qualification, awards will be made only for products that are,

at the time of award of contract, qualified for inclusion in Qualified Products List whether or not such products have

actually been so listed by that date. The attention of the contractors is called to these requirements, and

manufacturers are urged to arrange to have the products that they propose to offer to the Federal Government tested

for qualification in order that they may be eligible to be awarded contracts or orders for the products covered by this

specification. Information pertaining to qualification of products may be obtained from the DLA Land and Maritime

ATTN: VAT, PO Box 3990, Columbus, OH 43216-5000, or by e-mail to vqp.chief@dla.mil.

6.3.1 Copies of SD-6. Copies of SD-6, "Provisions Governing Qualification". A copy of this document is available

Desk, 700 Robbins Avenue, Building 4D, Philadelphia, PA 19111-5094.

6.4 PIN. This specification requires a PIN that describes codification or classification and appropriate references

to associated documents (see 1.2.1 and 3.1).

6.5. Environmentally preferable material. Environmentally preferable materials should be used to the maximum

extent possible to meet the requirements of this specification. As of the dating of this document, the U.S.

Environmentally Protection Agency (EPA) is focusing efforts on reducing 31 priority chemicals. The list of chemicals

is available on their website at https://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/hazwaste/minimize/chemlist.htm. Further information is

available at the following EPA site: https://www.epa.gov/epaoswer/hazwaste/minimize/. Included in the EPA list of 31

priority chemicals are cadmium, lead, and mercury. Use of the materials on the list should be minimized or

eliminated unless needed to meet the requirements specified herein (see Section 3).
