                          •    Systematically cover the area
                          •    Describe and locate each item clearly.

                          •    Follow-up urgently necessary items immediately.
                          •    Report items that seems unnecessary.

                   •   Pay particular attention to items that are or are most likely to develop
                       into unsafe or unhealthy conditions because of stress, wear, impact,

                       or misuse.
                   •   Include areas where no work is done regularly such as parking lots,
                       rest areas, office storage areas, and locker rooms.
