The projec tile burster well is tested to verify the absence of a burster, and the projectile is lifted by the robotic arm, 3 rotated, and placed vertically in a tray for conveying to In June 2004, the Department of the Army issued Implementation Guidance Policy for Revised Airborne Exposures Limits for the MWS room.

As of February 2005, the Bechtel Parsons Blue Grass There are two top punches with spray heads for supply- Team was planning to further modify the RSM design ing washout liquid and three bottom punches for drain- by incorporating a special cutting tool for the cutting ing agent and washout liquid. Both top and bottom positions at the interface of the rocket warhead and punches penetrate the firing tube and warhead cavity rocket propellant sections (Cut 4)
