BRIDGE RECONNAISSANCE REPORT
B-5. Use a Bridge Reconnaissance Report, DA Form 1249, to report the technical information collected
during a bridge reconnaissance. Additionally, when part of a route classification, the bridge information is
summarized on the route classification overlay as described in chapter
5.
(For rapid classification
procedures see appendix F.) Complete the bridge reconnaissance form as follows (see figure B-4 on pages
B-19 through B-20).
z
Column 1. Record the assigned serial number. This number matches the serial number used in
the bridge symbol of the route classification overlay.
z
Column 2. Record the 8-digit grid coordinates, with the map identifier, of the actual bridge site.
z
Column 3. Record horizontal clearance information, in meters. Horizontal clearance is the clear
distance between the inside edges of the bridge structure, measured at a height of 0.3 meter
above the surface of the traveled way and upwards. However, horizontal clearance for truss
bridges is measured 1.21 meters above the traveled way. Any horizontal clearance less than the
minimum required for the bridge’s roadway width, as shown in table B-3, is underlined.
Unlimited clearance is indicated by the symbol ∞.

Appendix C
Infrastructure Reconnaissance
This appendix provides a quick reference for collecting and reporting technical
information from the major and several “other” categories of infrastructure. For each
category, the appendix provides a smartcard with a brief overview of the
infrastructure category and its component systems followed by a checklist to guide
the collection of relevant information.
ASSESSMENT
C-1. The infrastructure assessment and the infrastructure survey are two stages/levels of infrastructure
reconnaissance used to gather this necessary infrastructure information. The purpose of the assessment is to
provide immediate feedback concerning the status of the basic services necessary to sustain the local
population. The memory aid to describe this assessment is SWEAT-MSO with each of the letters
describing a major area within the assessment (see figure C-1). The model can be adapted for use at the
tactical level in either stability or civil support operations. In either type of operation, the infrastructure
assessment and survey model can be used during course of action development to delineate tasks, missions,
and effects that support civil-military-related objectives.

Appendix C
C-2. The basic services or categories evaluated depend on the situation, mission, and commander’s intent.
While it is typically performed by engineers, it may be accomplished by others when an engineer is not
available, depending on the expertise available and the desired type/quality of information required. If
available, leaders should also consult military and NGO units and agencies in the area to determine if there
are extenuating circumstances that may influence the outcome of the assessment. Typically, engineer
planners use this information to define immediate needs and determine priorities of work. While an
infrastructure assessment is designed to support the resolution of the immediate challenges, it will normally
set the conditions for a successful transition. Some of the primary considerations for the assessment are—
z
Sewage. What is the status of the local sewage system? What health and environmental risks
exist?
z
Water. What potable water sources are available? Are they adequate? Have they been tested?
z
Electricity. What is the status of electrical generation facilities to include availability of
generators? What is the status of the transmission infrastructure? What critical facilities to
include hospitals, government buildings, and schools are not having their needs met? What is
the availability of fuel for transportation, heating, and cooking? Is there an adequate system of
distribution?
z
Academics. What schools are in need of repair and rebuilding?
z
Trash. Is there a system in place for removing waste? What hazardous waste streams are being
generated that may have detrimental impacts on health and the environment? What is the
ultimate disposal system for trash?
z
Medical. Are medical services available and operational? Does an emergency service exist? Are
services available for animals?
z
Safety. Is there a police and fire service? Are UXO or other EHs an issue?
C-3. Other considerations. Other considerations that leaders may consider as a part of the assessment
include—
z
Transportation networks. Are roads, bridges, and railroads trafficable? Is the airport
operational? Do helicopter landing sites exist and are they useable? Can they sustain the local,
humanitarian assistance traffic?
z
Fuel distribution. Is there a fuel distribution system available to commercial and residential
customers?
z
Housing. Are the homes structurally sound and habitable? Do they include basic utilities?
z
Explosive hazards. Are ordnance hazards observed?
z
Environmental hazards. Are environmental hazards observed?
z
Communications. Is the telephone network available and operational? Does the town have TV,
radio, and newspaper access and, if so, do they work?
z
Places of worship. Are there adequate facilities to support religious activities for all groups?
z
Attitude. Are local people and community leaders supportive? Is there ethnic tension?
C-4. Table C-1 provides an example checklist for an initial infrastructure assessment of a town or location
to assist in determining the humanitarian and civic assistance needs of the town at the beginning of a
stability operation. This example is not intended to be all-inclusive but rather another aid to support an
assessment. The formal survey will be much more specific and in depth than the information in any
assessment, and survey smartcards are provided in the second half of this appendix to support the conduct
of a survey. The example uses the SWEAT-MSO model introduced in table C-2 on pages C-3 through C-5
to assist the Soldier and Marine in organizing an assessment strategy. Chapter 6 provides an infrastructure
assessment rating to assist in rating each of the assessed categories. Leaders may use these resources to
begin developing priorities, obtaining resources, and refining a plan. Many of the tasks derived from this
process will be general engineering tasks (such as facilities construction, well drilling, power generation,
and road repair).

SURVEY
C-5. Infrastructure reconnaissance is accomplished in stages—the infrastructure assessment and the
infrastructure survey. As a follow-on to the assessment, the infrastructure survey provides a detailed
description of the condition of major services. The primary difference between the assessment and the
survey is the degree of technical information and the expertise required and available to perform the
reconnaissance. The survey is normally conducted by forward USACE personnel assigned or attached to a
FEST-M team and will integrate other technical specialties (medical, CA, and others) to enhance the
quality of the survey. A large urban area may require more than one survey team to accomplish the
necessary breadth of survey requirements. A survey may also require that the area be secure in order for it
to be performed while the assessment may be performed in an area that is not secured yet. Both are best
performed when other branch specialties are available to support the base engineer element. The following
series of smartcards are available to assist with the more detailed infrastructure survey.
