Can you describe how your habitat is set up? Are you using a medical-type face 
mask or a reg to deliver the O2? Are you surface supplying the O2 or 
pre-positioning tanks in the habitat?

I assume you surface ventilate the habitat so you can take your air breaks by 
just remmoving the mask/reg.

Do you have a procedure in case somebody toxes in the habitat?

Has anybody shown signs of toxing at those pressures and exposure times?

Thanks,

Rick
