on inspection records. Inspectors, Planner/Estimators, and Shop Supervisors should
know its use and intent. Inspectors should relate deficiencies to LMC Codes when class-
ifying deficiencies as Critical or Deferrable. It should also be used in work control to
determine priorities for job accomplishment. LMC Codes are defined in Table 2-1.

2.4.2.2 Condition Evaluation Standards. Condition evaluation stand-
ards are prescribed ratings for various defect classifications. Condition evaluation
ratings provide uniformity in assessing the condition of components or sub-components
of a facility. Evaluation procedures may be standardized by assigning numerical ratings
to specific conditions shown pictorially in respective condition evaluation standards
handbooks. The concept behind a handbook is for inspectors with different back-
grounds to be able to select the same rating from the handbook, thus providing a
uniform rating system throughout the shore establishment. Facility condition standards
are contained in selective MO manuals, such as, MO-102.1, MO-102.2, MO-102.3, MO-
102.4, MO-102.6, MO-103.9 and MO-210.9.
