  • IE Guidelines Rescue Exercise#7
    Guidelines for evaluation of Rescue Exercise 7 at the PADI IE. 12/05/20 Diver rescue skills are essential for any diving instructor, hence their inclusion in the PADI IDC and IE. PADI has a responsibility to the diving public to ensure that all PADI Instructors are able to demonstrate and teach divers’ essential rescue skills. This requires them to be evaluated prior to certification as a PADI OWSI. The current Covid19 public health crisis has raised a number of questions on how to conduct the Rescue E 7 evaluation and adhere to local health and safety authority guidelines and World Health Organization recommendations to minimise the likelihood of disease transmission. Adhering to the following procedures will allow rescue demonstration skills to be evaluated at the IE and meet recommendations for minimisation of disease transmission. Equipment. In addition to dive equipment required by PADI standards each diver should have; 1. A personal rescue breathing mask (RBM). Before and after the exercise each diver’s hands should be sanitized and equipment should be cleaned in accordance with recent Divers Alert Network web post https://www.diversalertnetwork.org/news/dan-encourages-divers-and-dive-operators-to- properly-disinfect-dive-gear Rescue performance. Commence rescue as normal with exception that victim’s RBM should be on the rescuer’s wrist or some location known and easily accessible to the rescuer. There is no change to the setup of the skill or the way the rescue is performed up until the point the rescuer makes physical contact with the victim. From that point forward the rescuer is to; 1.

  • Technologies for Underwater Archaeology and Maritime Preservation
    Technologies for Underwater Archaeology and Maritime Preservation September 1987 NTIS order #PB88-142559 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Technologies for Underwater Archaeol- ogy and Maritime Preservation— Background Paper, OTA-BP-E-37 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1987). Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 87-619848 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402-9325 (order form on the last page of this background paper) Foreword Exploration, trading, and other maritime activity along this Nation’s coast and through its inland waters have played crucial roles in the discovery, settlement, and develop- ment of the United States. The remnants of these activities include such varied cul- tural historic resources as Spanish, English, and American shipwrecks off the Atlantic and Pacific coasts; abandoned lighthouses; historic vessels like Maine-built coastal schooners, or Chesapeake Bay Skipjacks; and submerged prehistoric villages in the Gulf Coast. Together, this country’s maritime activities make up a substantial compo- nent of U.S. history. This background paper describes and assesses the role of technology in underwater archaeology and historic maritime preservation. As several underwater projects have recently demonstrated, advanced technology, often developed for other uses, plays an increasingly important role in the discovery and recovery of historic shipwrecks and their contents. For example, the U.S. Government this summer employed a powerful remotely operated vehicle to map and explore the U.S.S. Monitor, which lies on the bottom off Cape Hatteras. This is the same vehicle used to recover parts of the space shuttle Challenger from the ocean bottom in 1986.

  • Safe Diving Distances from Transmitting Sonar, from the US Navy Diving Manual
    APPENDIX 1A 6DIH'LYLQJ'LVWDQFHVIURP 7UDQVPLWWLQJ6RQDU 1A-1 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this appendix is to provide guidance regarding safe diving distances and exposure times for divers operating in the vicinity of ships transmit- ting with sonar. Table 1A-1 provides guidance for selecting Permissable Exposure Limits Tables; Table 1A-2 provides additional guidance for helmeted divers. Tables 1A-3 through 1A-5 provide specific procedures for diving operations involving AN/SQS-23, -26, -53, -56; AN/SQQ-14, -30, and -32; AN/BSY-1, -2; and AN/BQQ-5 sonars. Section 1A-6 provides guidance and precautions concerning diver exposure to low-frequency sonar (160-320Hz). Contact NAVSEA Supervisor of Diving (00C3B) for guidance on other sonars. This appendix has been substantially revised from Safe Diving Distances from Trans- mitting Sonar (NAVSEAINST 3150.2 Series) and should be read in its entirety. 1A-2 BACKGROUND Chapter 18 of OPNAVINST 5100.23 Series is the basic instruction governing hearing conservation and noise abatement, but it does not address exposure to waterborne sound. Tables 1A-3 through 1A-6 are derived from experimental and theoretical research conducted at the Naval Submarine Medical Research Labora- tory (NSMRL) and Naval Experimental Diving Unit (NEDU). This instruction provides field guidance for determining safe diving distances from transmitting sonar. This instruction supplements OPNAVINST 5100.23 Series, and should be implemented in conjunction with OPNAVINST 5100.23 Series by commands that employ divers. The Sound Pressure Level (SPL), not distance, is the determining factor for estab- lishing a Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL). The exposure SPLs in Tables 1A-3 through 1A-6 are based upon the sonar equation and assume omni-directional sonar and inverse square law spreading.
