Talked about the fire extinguishers, building evacuation (both for fire and lava instances), AED-defib proper use and application, the different resources avaible to us on the UCAR website, proper gear(shoes, safety glasses, face masks etc.), tested the emergency pendants and discussed any issues that we came across during/after testing, updated some procedures/documents according to what we do/have here, talked about space heaters and fire hazards, discussed about different cpr and first aid training...I believe that is most of the topics that were covered today. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Wed Apr 18 01:30:20 GMT 2018 Unfortunately,no data today. High clouds moved in after the thin cirrus and no visible sky was to be had. Hoping tomorrow will be better. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: berkey, stueben, waters, Bob Wiley
