ONE TEAM ONE MISSION 3


REQUISITION FORMS: All requisition requestes are to be submitted electronically. The can be
mailed to firedrew8783@yahoo.com.

STAGING AREAS: The staging areas are now considered “construction sites” in which access will be
restricted. Any CGA personnel entering these sites will be required to provide vehicle placard, appropriate
ID, and will have to be wearing long pants, boots, safety vest, and hard hat while on the premises.

2. Safety Precautions:
Choking First Aid:

While on the job site with limited times to eat the “wolfing down” of your food can cause choking.
Choking occurs when a foreign object becomes lodged in the throat or windpipe, blocking the flow of air. In
adults, a piece of food often is the culprit. Because choking cuts off oxygen to the brain, administer first aid
as quickly as possible.

The Red Cross recommends a "five-and-five" approach to delivering first aid:


ƒ First, deliver five back blows between the person's shoulder blades with the heel of your hand.

ƒ Next, perform five abdominal thrusts (also known as the Heimlich maneuver).

ƒ Alternate between five back blows and five abdominal thrusts until the blockage is dislodged.

If you're the only rescuer, perform back blows and abdominal thrusts before calling 911 or your local
emergency number for help. If another person is available, have that person call for help while you perform
first aid.

Terri Kanamine is the designated Safety Officer. However, EVERYONE IS A SAFETY OFFICER.
When a potential hazard is discovered:
1. Make sure that everyone else in your workplace is aware of the problem.
2. Notify your supervisor. Unless you are the supervisor; then get going on that safety committee
plan.
3. File any reports or documents about the problem.
4. Follow up. Telling someone there’s a problem is not a guarantee that the problem will be resolved
satisfactorily. Report it and later follow up to make sure the problem was addressed.

3. Area Update:
• Dime to five inch-sized tar balls and tar patties continue to be found in widely scattered areas of
northwest Florida.
• If oil is sighted on Florida’s coastline report it to the State Warning Point at 1-877-2-SAVE-FL (1-877-
272-8335) or by dialing #DEP from most cell phones. • Perdido Pass, Pensacola Pass and Destin Pass
will be closed with the tide to reduce the amount of oil from entering inland waters. Boom will be
deployed across each Pass at flood tide (water coming in) and removed at ebb tide (water going out).
• The United States Coast Guard's Captain of the Port for Sector Mobile authorized the official closure of

ONE TEAM ONE MISSION 4


Perdido Pass, Pensacola Pass and Destin Pass. These waterways will be manned to allow access to
necessary vessel traffic. Perdido Pass, Pensacola Pass and Destin Pass will be open for vessel traffic
during low tide. See NOAA tide predictions.
• A flashing light has been attached to all booms to increase visibility to boaters.

4. State Update:
• Oil Containment Boom (in feet) total: 388,350 deployed in Florida.
o Tier 1: 172,000 / Tier 2: 120,000 / Tier 3: 96,350
• In accordance with established plans, protective booming, staging, and boom maintenance is being
conducted along the coast from Escambia to Franklin.
• 367 vessels are deployed in Florida for the Vessels of Opportunity program.
• 313 Qualified Community Responders are actively working the cleanup efforts in the Florida Panhandle.
• According to the NOAA oil plume model, the oil plume remains 32 miles from Mexico Beach and 230 miles
from St. Petersburg. The NOAA trajectories indicate a very slow easterly movement of the oil slick and the
Florida Panhandle will continue to be threatened by shoreline contacts as far east as Panama City through
Monday. However, the expected shift in winds will likely begin to push much of the oil plume towards the
west-northwest later next week, though oil already near shore will continue to be pushed ashore by tidal
currents.
• In addition to $100,000 for Volunteer Florida to maintain a database for the registration of volunteers, BP
has issued over $75 million in grants to Florida for booming, a national tourism advertising campaign and
the state’s preparedness and response efforts.
• BP claims in Florida total 16,751 with approximately $15,072,798.85 paid.
• The fishery failure declaration for the Gulf of Mexico includes Florida, providing impacted and eligible
commercial fisheries the opportunity for federal support; it does not close fisheries.

5. Federal Update:
• Current projections estimate Deepwater Horizon’s discharge at 35,000 to 60,000 barrels per day. Learn more.
• BP has placed a Lower Marine Riser Package (LMRP) Cap Containment System in an attempt to contain the
leak and capture a substantial amount of the leaking oil.
• On June 19, approximately 21,552 barrels of oil were captured from the LMRP Cap Containment System and
approximately 10,100 barrels of oil and 47.4 million cubic feet of natural gas were flared.
• BP is continuing efforts to drill two relief wells.
