YOu cant even clean a bird without taking hazmat course. As I said, its not just 1-2-3, you put on your shorts and jump on a boat. This is emergency response to disaster type of stuff. In the end I will be certified for Hazardous Waste Operations and Emergency Response (HAZWOPER) which is kind of cool LOL But yes, you cant go anywhere near the oil itself unless trained. As far as bare skin, even the guys cleaning beaches etc have space suits on. You work 20 mins and break for 40 because the suits are so hot, so they rotate people and need as many as they can.
We are trying to keep the oil OUT of where we are so this is why Im getting involved. The booms are being deployed and they need as many people as they can train right now, so I signed up.
