On or about October 11, 2014 through October 14, 2104, located at the Discover Financial Services' north retention pond, employees were conducting surfaced-supplied diving in order to remove pond muck with a suction hose. The employees were supplied air from a 26 gallon Central Pneumatic air compressor, model number 68067, serial number 06047 that had a 1/4 inch i.d.
