St. Bernard Parish Government employees receive airboat training



Six employees of the St. Bernard Parish Government recently received
training in airboat operation. The field training consisted of
trailer/towing cautions, safety equipment, pre-start maintenance checks,
start-up procedures, underway cautions and shut-down procedures. The
airboats are part of an eight boat fleet that was recently purchased by the
Parish Government to perform search and rescue during flooding. The boats
will be operated and maintained by the Parish Government and will also
participate in joint exercises with the St. Bernard Sheriff's Office.
