Ice diving is one of the most technical kinds of diving—incorporating both overhead and confined space risks. The lack of proper training can have disastrous results. Ice Diving Operations is written for public safety divers, decision makers, EMS, sport divers, and instructors, and fills the void in education for each level. The extensive information presented on hypothermia, universal safety procedures and much more, make this book invaluable even for non-ice diving operations. Ice Diving Operations is designed to be used to create uniform procedures and guidelines to meet NFPA and OSHA standards.
