Decon Procedures

Brush, Scrape, or Flush radiological contamination.

Cover Foxholes and Shelters.

Radiac Operators begin continuous monitoring

Covering the Mouth with handkerchief reduces contaminants entering the lungs.

This method is preferable to masking to avoid trapping contamination in the mask filter.
