Book excerpt: From the Preface: NOAA is nearing 50 years of scientific diving operations, working in waters throughout the continental United States, offshore oceans, and even international waters while serving U.S. territories. In this time, the diving program has grown from a few volunteer researchers to one of the largest, safest, best-equipped, and most respected dive operations on the planet. This Fifth Edition of the NOAA Diving Manual continues to build on those earlier efforts, combining new developments and cutting edge methods as well as commonly used procedures to provide a reference text that is useful to divers and diving scientists not just within NOAA, but for all those involved in exploring the seas and fresh water bodies of Earth. The Fifth Edition took over four years to complete. During the process, leading recognized experts both within and outside of NOAA were asked to review, revise, and update each of the chapters in the manual. In some cases, new chapters were proposed, and others combined. After this first draft was received, each chapter underwent comprehensive editing, in some cases passing through more than five levels of review. The result is a document that is broad, wide-ranging, and current in state-of-the-art scientific and working diver information and procedures. Within the NOAA structure, this manual is meant to be used in conjunction with the NOAA Scientific Diving Standards and Safety Manual and the NOAA Working Diving Standards and Safety Manual, both of which were developed concurrently with this edition of the NOAA Diving Manual. Conceptually, this manual provides general safety information and background on all aspects of diving, while the two standards and safety manuals outline the specific rules and procedures under which NOAA divers operate. While Imperial units have been used throughout the text, conversions for the International System of Units (SI, from the French Le Système international d unités) have also been included. This resource could not have been developed without the assistance and efforts of a broad panel of experts. These contributors are recognized in the Acknowledgements section of the manual. Likewise, an extended team assisted in editing and review. They are also listed in the Acknowledgements. The NOAA Diving Program (NDP) office and staff provided significant support, as did members of the NOAA Diving Control and Safety Board (NDCSB).

Book excerpt: The Alaska Department of Fish and Game conducts several dive projects throughout the state that require the use of scuba. Dive projects may involve work in marine and freshwater environments and may require scientific or non-scientific diving. Scientific dive projects usually consist of observation or collecting biological and habitat data for commercially important fish or invertebrate populations. This type of diving often requires only the use of measuring tools, collection bags, and means to write or record data under water. The department’s scientific diving program qualifies for a scientific exemption of commercial diving regulations administered under the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The department also conducts non-scientific dive projects that do not qualify for scientific exemption. These projects may include installation and maintenance of fish weirs that cross streams and rivers. Although fish weirs are designed to allow collection of biological data for salmon and other freshwater and anadromous fish, the installation and maintenance of these structures requires underwater work that goes beyond the definition of scientific diving. Another non-scientific diving category the department recognizes is ship husbandry or diving beneath and around department vessels to observe and inspect hulls and equipment not visible from above the water surface. All dive projects conducted by the department fall under the authority of the Dive Safety Board, which is the governing body that maintains this document, establishes the department’s dive safety policy, reviews all dive projects for safety considerations, and approves all dive-related training, equipment, and practices.
