1. Establish safe access

   The technician identifies submerged electrical equipment before entering the Epes room. Occupants remain outside the water path.

2. Remove the standing water

   A pump intake needs sufficient depth to work effectively. The crew switches methods as the water level falls.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Affected insulation may be discarded so the cavity can dry. The contractor records what was removed.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment may move as materials release water at different rates. Final measurements support the dry-out record.
