CCR Tek Lite Mine Diver
This technical-lite mine specialization qualifies rebreather divers to conduct limited-depth technical mine dives in unrestricted passages on closed-circuit rebreathers. It provides an entry point to CCR mine diving with simplified decompression and moderate stage management in overhead environments, teaching CCR operation in silt-heavy mine atmospheres, zero-visibility navigation on rebreather, and integrated mine bailout procedures. Maximum training depth is 150 fsw (45 msw).
