On Friday, September 29th the Carroll County Haz-Mat Team was paged out to respond to a MVA in Mckenzie.

Responding units included 604 and the Haz-Mat Equipment Trailor. Absorbant pads were used to absorb engine fluids from the vehicle that were in the ditch.

Level C (blue) Haz-Mat suits, boot covers and gloves were used to protect the Team from fluids.

The absorbant pads used on a scene - and the coveralls and other disposable PPE (boot covers, gloves etc.) are disposed of properly in bags and are removed from the scene from the official clean-up team on the site. Any tools or equipment used on our Haz-Mat scenes must be decontaminated before returning them to the Equipment trailor or 604.
