501. 3.8 STATION 6 - HAND AND FACE WASH AND STREET SHOE <br /> DONNING <br /> Wash, rinse, and dry hands and face, then don street <br /> shoes. If highly toxic, corrosive, or skin absorbable chemicals <br /> are known to be present, a shower facility should be set-up in the <br /> support area and personnel required to shower before leaving the <br /> site. <br /> 501. 4 LEVEL OF PROTECTION FOR DECONTAMINATION PERSONNEL <br /> Personnel assisting in the decontamination process must <br /> wear the same personal protective equipment worn by personnel being <br /> decontaminated. <br /> 501. 5 DECONTAMINATION SOLUTION <br /> C" A decontamination solution should be capable of removing <br /> or converting to a harmless substance the contaminant of concern <br /> without harming the object being decontaminated. The preferred <br /> solution is a mixture of detergent and water, which is a relatively <br /> safe option compared to chemical decontaminants. A solution <br /> recommended for decontaminating boots and gloves consists of 1 to <br /> 1 . 5 table spoons of Alconox per gallon of warm water. Skin <br /> surfaces should be decontaminated by washing with hand soap and <br /> water. The decontamination solution must be changed when it no <br /> longer foams or when it becomes extremely dirty. Rinse water must <br /> be changed when it becomes discolored, begins to foam, or when the <br /> decontamination solution cannot be removed. <br /> l HS-501-4 November 1990 <br />
