A federal law designed to shield the environment and human health from the dangers of solid waste. gives the EPA position to control risky waste from its creation to its removal. Generation, transportation, treatment, storage, and disposal are overseen by this "cradle-to-grave" authority.

It ensures that Department of Defense Components adhere to the Military Munitions Rule and manage waste military munitions in a consistent manner. The Munitions Rule specifies special requirements for the management of hazardous waste military munitions.

DDAs "Hadden stated that only DDAs can reclassify assets as waste military munition, Condition Code V, which designates it as HWM." Prior to demilitarization, a substance must comply with EPA labeling and storage requirements and be designated as hazardous waste military ammunition in accordance with the ammunition supply code CC-V.

How Birmingham is developed

Irina-Kira [14]

Notice the newly constructed seawall in the illustration below. The MOST likely outcome of its construction is that the seawall

skad [1K]

The most likely outcome would be a.temporarily protect the cliff from beach erosion.

Here's the reason why:

As sea wall's construction material is likely to be rock, no matter it's weather-resistance, it would be weathered by different weathering agents, especially in area with relatively high rainfall and humidity. Sea water itself will also catalyse the weathering process by chemical weathering, or physical weathering such as hydraulic action or abrasion.

When the sea wall is not properly maintained or has been in use for a prolonged period, it may be worn off and no longer able to serve as a protection to the cliff.

Therefore, it is a temporary measure to protect the cliff from beach erosion.

Why the other reasons are false:

b. permanently protect the home from beach erosion.

-As mentioned, the seawall can not last forever due to weathering and erosion that can damage the sea wall, the answer is therefore false.

c. increase sediment production on the beach, decreasing the rate of erosion.

-While sea wall may indeed be weathered and produce sediments from the construction material, or slightly help the sediment to accumulate, it is unlikely that it can decrease the rate of erosion effectively.

d. deter biologic activity that might compromise the integrity of the cliff.

Although it is possible to construct a sea wall to prevent biological activity of the cliff, such as the growth of vegetation or being inhabited by creatures, which can damage the integrity of the cliff, a sea wall without proper maintenance may not be able to deter these activities. Besides, it is possible for creatures to reside or plants to grow in sea wall, thus it is not the most likely outcome.

Hope it helps!

Answer:

Wash your bloody hands.

Explanation:

It’s worth repeating, over and over again: Wash your hands. Wet your hands with clean running water and then lather them with soap; don’t miss the backs of your hands, between your fingers and under your nails. Make sure to scrub for at least 20 seconds (or about the time it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” twice), and dry them with a clean towel or let them air dry. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers, which should be rubbed in for about 20 seconds, can also work, but the gel must contain at least 60% alcohol.
