With the weather being so nice, A shift set up a hazmat scenario behind the station for some of the newer members to get some suit time.  The leak tree was hooked up and the spill began.

The crew worked through the problem from start to finish discussing the procedures to be followed in a real incident.  Two personnel were set up in level A suits with the tools necessary to stop the leaks.  Pipe clamps, pipe sleeves, golf tees, and wooden plugs  were used to stop the leaks from various holes in the piping.  Gear was cleaned up and stowed, ready for another call.
