   Technicians compare suspect materials with dry areas to define the drying scope.

3. Remove and sanitize affected materials

   Porous materials that cannot be restored are removed using protective methods.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   The crew records temperature, humidity and material condition through the dry-out.
