Our construction crew is preparing to mobilize to a mine site to install water treatment modules pre-fabricated in our Delta shop. The system must be operational soon to ensure continued protection of the environment, but we also need to ensure we protect our people and others from the spread of COVID-19. We’re giving our crew options for face protection that include half-mask respirators, N-95 masks, and washable cloth masks.
We have stock of respirators and N-95 masks, but we’ve never needed cloth masks in the past, so we have none in stock. Since masks of any kind are hard to find right now, our business administrator, Christine, has offered to help out by sewing cloth masks for our crew…
She said fabric is also hard to find right now and the only other choice was a Christmas pattern.
