- Do not step into the shower or handle sewage-soaked towels.
- Avoid splashing water or using household chemicals on the spill.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 378 housing units across the mapped area include many floor plans, so crews assess each loss on site. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Navajo Dam was built in the 1990s. A remodeled basement in this period may contain absorbent drywall and carpet. A technician maps the wet materials behind any visible stain.
A seasonal shift may change outdoor work conditions without changing the need for indoor sanitizing.
