Pump or extract liquid water

Find moisture beyond the puddle

-
Remove materials that hold unsafe water
Outside flood water can contaminate materials throughout its path. Technicians assess what can be cleaned and what must be discarded.
-
Dry the structure and confirm progress
Technicians adjust equipment when one area dries slower than the rest. A dry surface alone does not end monitoring.
