Decontamination Procedures

Other Decontamination/Disposal Procedures  

Decontamination procedures for respirators and equipment are briefly described below. All decontamination will be performed in an area that is removed from the locations that are sampled.

Decontamination waters will be collected in 55-gallon drums marked "decon fluids" or similar containers.
Equipment decontamination will be conducted on a concrete pad or plastic sheeting constructed so decontamination waters can be collected and drummed.
Decon fluids will be disposed of properly.
