Mission Briefing

Ten-minute preparation window before the canal breach floods the area.

Deployment order: Use the ten-minute warning as a setup phase. Place barriers, pumps, hoses and power before the breach rather than reacting after the flood reaches the church.

Mission Walkthrough

Phase 1 — Pre-breach deployment

Complete the slow equipment work before the canal event.

Survey all seven regions and identify the likely flood route.
Stage pumps and generators on ground that should remain usable.
Use the four functional hydrants to prepare inflatable barriers where they can redirect, not merely block, the flow.

Phase 2 — Protect the church approach

Keep the main surge out of the most difficult cleanup areas.

Shape a route that sends floodwater towards working drains or prepared pump zones.
Keep cables and generators behind the barrier line.
Watch the barrier ends; water can bypass an otherwise correct placement.

Phase 3 — Pump the post-breach low points

Remove the deepest water once the main surge settles.

Start with the region receiving the greatest continuing load.
Use multiple pumps only where their outlets do not interfere.
Re-clear drains after debris from the breach reaches them.

Phase 4 — Recover all seven regions

Perform a complete church and canal-side sweep.

Check behind barrier ends and around building edges.
Vacuum shallow water in protected or enclosed spaces.
Use the scanner after the site appears dry to catch returning canal-side pockets.
