 Welcome to Coast Guard Station in Gwinnabay. Join us as we take you on a tour of daily life here at the station. Good morning. As a communications watch standard, our primary job is to monitor the radios for any distress calls as well as keep communications with our boats as they are underway. We also keep close communications with our tower watch standard who keeps an eye out for any signs of distress on the bar and as well as any changing conditions that may occur. Once we get a distress call, we begin by getting the initial information such as position and we notify the boat crews to get the brief going and then we get a asset underway to assist the mariner. Looks like an engineer left this here. Do you mind go taking it to him? So here in the engineering department, we work alongside with DEC to ensure that all our equipment and our assets are ready for operations. We maintain all of our engines as well as our firefighting equipment and all dewatering foams. In DEC department, we maintain the boats ensuring that all proper equipment is on board and in good working order. From our tow lines to our flares and distress signals on our pyro vests, we make sure that everything is where it should be and functioning properly. After a long day of work at Station in Gwinnabay, we try to incorporate gym time into our daily routine. In the first floor of our unit's administrative building is our station gym and this gym and holds all the equipment that our members use in their work out regiment or their daily fitness routine in order for us to stay strong and healthy to maintain our operations. Here in the galley, we provide all the unit's crews with meals throughout the day. We also have to keep an inventory of all the supplies we use and make well-balanced menus while taking into consideration all the nutritious values. We also have to keep everything clean and sanitized throughout the day to ensure the safety of our crew. Hello, welcome to the supply office. As a storekeeper in the Coast Guard, it is my job to procure items for our crew members so anytime that they make requests for items in excess of even $10,000, they will fill out this procurement request for me, send it over my way and then I will go ahead and make the purchase as well. I take care of our property anywhere in excess of $25,000 to $50,000 and I keep everything here at the station shaped for that. At Station Quinnabay, law enforcement is an important mission we accomplish to keep mariners and marine wildlife safe. When conducting boardings, we check and make sure that the vessel has all required safety gear. We often work alongside Oregon State Police to assist in fisheries. At Station Quinnabay, we work side by side with the rescue helicopters. We train for any situation that requires the helicopter's assistance. Twice a week, we train with the helicopters by receiving baskets lowered by them, as well as them sending a swimmer down to our boat. We also serve as a safety standby as they practice lowering their swimmer to the water. As a surf station in the Coast Guard, we are required to be prepared for breaking waves of up to 20 feet in height. This requires a lot of training and highly skilled boat operators. During the winter months, we train and serve to be proficient and able to do our job when there is a mariner in distress. Thank you for joining us at Station Quinnabay. We hope you have a good day and we'll see you next time.
