Safety is the number one focus for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, especially when it comes to the hardworking #BuffaloDistrict Floating Plant/Repair Fleet team and their work on waters of the Great Lakes. The immersion suit, also known as a survival suit, or gumby suit, is one of many safety measures used on the vessels of the floating plant. Each vessel is fitted with enough suits for each member of the team in their specific size. These suits, made for survival for up to 6 hours in frigid temperatures to help prevent hypothermia, are easy and fast to put on when time is of the essence. To further make sure every member of the crew is proficient and comfortable in donning the suit, they conduct monthly drills to make sure everyone can completely don their immersion suit within a 2-minute timeframe. #SafetyFirst #USACE US Army Corps of Engineers | U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Great Lakes and Ohio River Division
