(1) Approval Authorities for Movement Orders- Operational Risk Management
(2) U.S. Naval Academy Operational Risk Management Format
(3) Extra-Curricular Activities as Required to Maintain Approved Operational Risk
Management on File
1. Purpose. Develop standardized Operational Risk Management (ORM) procedures for
movement orders.
2. Appli~ability. This instmction applies to all midshipmen and
associated with a Movement Order (MO).

3. Operational Risk Management
a. ORM is an important patt of preparing for an evolution. A full explanation of ORM can
be found in reference (a). For the purpose of this instruction, ORM can be thought of as a plan,
developed prior to execution, for reducing the likelihood and severity of injury.
b. Prior to executing a movement order, ORM must be approved. Based on the type of
movement order, the approval authority differs. Enclosure (1) provides guidance on who has
approval authority.
c. ORM should be prepared according to the standard U.S Naval Academy format, given in
enclosure (2).
d. Due to the high volume ofMO's submitted tlu-oughout the academic school year, ExtraCurricular Activities (ECA) listed in enclosure (3) are required to maintain approved ORM on
file with the Brigade Safety Officer.
(1) The ORM must be approved before the ECA goes on a movement order where they
will be participating in the specified activity.

(2) The ECAs are required to submit new ORM for approval at the beginning of every
academic year. ORM approval will not carry into the next academic year.
(3) If the ECA executes multiple activities on their diverse movement orders, they are
required to maintain approved ORM for each separate activity.
e. The approval of ORM is subject to providing proof of any additional information
requested by the approver. For instance, this additional information might include proof of
qualification or certification.
f. The approval of ORM can be revoked at any time by the approving authority or by
someone senior in the same chain of command.
4. Review Responsibility. The Commandant's Brigade Safety Officer is responsible for the
annual review of this instruction.

Orange cones will be placed over

(SO 's) will monitor runners and
potholes. Safety Observers and
participants will receive safety
briefand map ofroute with
p otholes. SO's will walk route one
day prior to event.. Event
Coordinator will provide safety
brief and ride in safety vehicle to
monitor route and maintain
communication with SO's during
event.

Appmv.,- Comments
Step 1. Identify Hazards. List the major steps involved in the activity. Identify the conditions with the potential to cause damage, injury or mission
degradation and list the hazards and the causes of the hazards.
Step 2. Assess hazards. For each hazard identified, determine the associated degree of risk in terms of probability and severity.
Use the matrix below to assign each hazard identified in Step 1 with a hazard severity category and a mishap probability rating. Use these to
determine a Risk Assessment Code.
Hazard Severity Category Matrix:
Mishap Probability Sub-category Matrix

A. Likely to occur immediately
B. Probably will occur in time
C. May occur in time
D. Unlikely to occur

Step 3. Risk Decisions. List the risk controls and determine the "Residual RAC" with controls in place. This will be based on the Residual mishap
probability rating and severity category. Assess if benefit of the mission outweighs the new risk levels. If risks outweigh benefits, seek further risk
reduction.
Step 4. Implement Controls-- When risks are reduced to acceptable levels, implement the appropriate control measures. List how the controls will
be implemented. Provide details.
Step 5. Supervise- List who will supervise the execution of the controls. What are their qualifications to supervise the evolution/controls?
