1. Assess hazards and water depth

2. Extract standing floodwater

   The crew works from safe access toward wet rooms, taking bulk water out before drying.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The team separates salvageable hard materials from porous items that hold contamination.

   Dehumidifiers and directed airflow dry remaining materials while meter readings show progress.
