ERDI Contaminated Water Ops

PSD Members NEED ERDI Contaminated Water Ops training

Here’s Why…

1. Safety counts

2. Contaminated Water: shortcuts are NOT AN OPTION

3. Simple recreational-level training and gear are dangerous

4. onLine National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) Compliant Contaminated Water Awareness Training is NOW AVAILABLE

5. onLine Diver Training also available

Public Safety Divers have no choice when it comes to picking a dive site; they are compelled to dive wherever and in whatever the environment and circumstances require.

Often this translates to conducting dive operations in water contaminated by chemicals, animal waste, discarded household garbage, and other pollutants. In light of recent developments, we have to add oil to the list of health-threatening ingredients that YOUR dive team may be asked to work in.

As a PSD Team Member or Leader, YOU want the best protection for yourself and everyone you work with. You know that contaminated water is extremely hazardous and conducting dives at ANY depth or even surface activities in this type of environment without the appropriate gear and post-dive cleansing procedures WILL result in injury and could be a life-altering experience.
