Yes, it's explained in section 3.2.2:
>>>>>
A noun formed by adding {-wI'} to a verb is a regular noun, so it may be
used along with
another noun to form a compound noun. For example, {tIjwI'ghom} "boarding
party"
comes from {tIjwI'} "boarder" plus {ghom} "group;" and {tIjwI'} comes from
{tIj}
"board" plus {-wI'.}
