PSD DIVE TEAM DEVELOPMENT - MAKODIVER can assist Public Safety agencies with the development and upgrading of Dive Teams - from starting a new team to ensuring OSHA, NFPA, and NIOSH compliance, developing SOGs, training, equipment recommendations, and funding options.
PUBLIC SAFETY DIVER - Underwater Search, Rescue & Recovery training for members of Fire/Rescue, Lifeguard, and Law Enforcement agencies.
SCUBA classes - customized to meet the needs of Public Safety Divers/ PSD teams, as well as other professional divers.
In addition to dive training, MAKODIVER provides Stand-by & Safety Divers for on-location TV/motion picture productions, and other in/over/near-water events and activities.
MAKODIVER can also provide Search & Recovery services for lost / sunken items - "no job too small". We have even located and recovered a very expensive diamond earring in 60' of murky water for a client!
