Lake Intake on Lake Lavon

Diver making ready
Inspecting a lake intake in North Texas. Commercial diver prepares to be lowered into the water. This will be a near zero vizability dive to inspect the floor of the facility. The diver is using line air and has communications with the surface.
With low visability a ROV or underwater camera is not very effective. The diver is able to use touch and feel to blindly inspect the underwater areas of the intake.
Safety is the No. 1 priority on a job like this. Before the diver gets near the water he, the crew chief and the Utility supervisors confirm that all pumps are locked out and tagged out*. Failure to do so is an OSHA violation and more important can have more tragic consequences**.
