Chemical Cleaning of Sewage Collection Piping Systems on Navy Surface Ships

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is in the process of developing draft specifications and standards aimed at supporting a diverse range of design solutions and processes within the Navy. This effort seeks to promote engagement from a wide vendor base, enhancing innovation and options in the field. The current draft, MIL-STD-X128, focuses specifically on the chemical cleaning of sewage collection piping systems aboard Navy surface ships. Interested parties are invited to review and provide feedback on the draft document to help shape the final standards. This request for review is not a solicitation for contracts but rather an opportunity to contribute to the technical development process. The draft document is publicly accessible, and comments can be submitted by contacting the designated point of contact, Ruth W. Butler, via email while referencing the document number MIL-STD-X128. This initiative reflects NAVSEA’s commitment to ensuring efficient and effective maintenance protocols for naval vessels while maintaining broad industry participation.
