How long can temporary storage of material occur without TYCOM approval?

Temporary storage of material without TYCOM (Type Commander) approval is allowed for a period of 1 year. This timeframe allows naval commands to manage and store materials efficiently while ensuring that necessary oversight from TYCOM is not overburdening operations. Temporary storage is critical for maintaining equipment readiness and supply chain efficiency. If materials are required for longer than a year, TYCOM approval is needed to ensure proper accountability and utilization of resources within the Navy's logistics framework. This balance is essential for effective inventory management and maintaining the operational readiness of naval forces.
