We are working on a multi-agency (dive teams and FD) scenario where we are trying to simulate a need for a thorough washdown/ decon of the divers.
Our goal is to revise our MOPS/ SOPS for a focus on diver safety, and to have a simple one page reference we can hand off to a FD POC (an agency we have not worked with) that will help advise, educate and execute a washdown.
Diver Dress will be Viking Pro's or HD's with Sartek Valve and AGA (mix of positive and np pressure), latex hoods, dry gloves with 19/30 cu ft pony. Standard team includes primary diver + primary tender, backup diver + backup tender and a 90% diver.
Specific scenario - wash down after farm pond with high fecal content, fertilizer and pesticide runoff, and possible biological contamination.
If anyone can send an exert from their MOP or has something similar in place, please send it to me at vablackwater.com or post it here.
Thanks for your support.
