Disposal of Contaminated Shower Water. Water used <strong>for</strong> shower decontamination contains<br />
contaminated matter. This water must not be allowed to drain into the clean water supply reservoir. To<br />
dispose of this contaminated wastewater, a drainage pit or interlocking drainage pits should be constructed<br />
by using engineer support personnel to prepare disposal area(s). Shower personnel are not able to do this<br />
construction because they do not have the equipment <strong>for</strong> this job. The following wastewater measures to be<br />
taken are --<br />
• Coordinate with higher headquaters <strong>for</strong> disposal. Location of the wastewater must be reported to higher<br />
headquarters, <strong>and</strong> EPA regulations <strong>and</strong> local policy guidelines must be followed. EPA guidelines <strong>and</strong><br />
restrictions should be set up in the FSC’s <strong>and</strong> SLCR sections’/teams’ TSOP.<br />
• Identify wastewater site. The location of the wastewater site must be marked with the appropriate NBC<br />
markers shown below in Figure 3-13.<br />
• Implement wastewater disposal application. Also, contaminated wastewater (in conjunction with the<br />
field service shower equipment) may dispose of wastewater into a collapsible water tank(s) or pumped into<br />
tanker truck(s). Responsibility <strong>for</strong> the arrangement <strong>for</strong> tanker truck(s) <strong>for</strong> wastewater disposal will be with<br />
the headquarters, FSC.<br />
NOTE: Decontamination of shower equipment will be processed by the decontamination element advising<br />
<strong>and</strong> assisting the shower element, as authorized through the chain of comm<strong>and</strong>.<br />
