Subject: WKPP Dives
WKPP will be conducting exploration dives three days this week. On
Thursday Armentrout, Rose and Mee will be working M Tunnel at Wakulla
pushing another tunnel which parallels A Tunnel starting at 5,000 feet
and moving gear forward for Irvine, Jablonski and Scarabin who will be
working O Tunnel on Friday . On Saturday  Head, Cole and Miller will be
exploring the upstream of Big Dismal in the conduit, already started
last week. Werner, Sallot and Straatsma will be working the upstream of
the downstream conduit, and Rose and Landon will be working the back
side of the upstream ( this is a multibranching cave ). Sunday morning
dives will be at Indian. 

     Kernagis and Carmichael will be running the show, and we need
maximum cooperation. We not only have several concurrent dives going on,
we have two different TV shows being filmed and environmental reporters
from another TV show and two newspapers doing stories. The guys filming
for national Geographic and FOX will need help with their stuff and
safety divers on them every second. Any verbalization to the papars or
other TV shows has to be done by Jablonski, Mee, or Irvine - no
confusion there, please. 

     Dawn will put out the plans and schedules. We will need some help
knotting line on Thursday - we have the big 4 pound spools in the van
courtesy of Lamartec ( the Company Formerly Known As...) and several
large empty reels that need refilling. Anyone who will help with this I
will also show how to survey on the fly.

     Anyone who has safety bottles , bring them. We need to replace on
of the 35's, and we need to move the new ones in - currently we only
have safeties out to 11,000 feet. 

     The Friday dive will be on the Halcyon rebreathers, the rest are on
conventional gear. However, if anyone wants to use the decompression
rebreathers, talk to Robert. I will not be using mine since the other
one lasts all the way out.
