  1. Enter the total personnel count at the field site.
  2. Set the operation duration (days) for cumulative supply calculations.
  3. Select climate zone: 0=Cold, 1=Temperate, 2=Hot/Arid — hot climates require more water and more frequent waste disposal.
  4. Review Latrine units (1 per 8 personnel), Handwash stations, and Soakage pits needed for the site.
  5. Use JP-8 for latrines (gal) and Disinfectant (gal) to pre-stage sanitation supplies.
