Procedures for handling a fresh-water immersed parachute are as follows: 1.    Contaminated fresh-water.  If the parachute or its components has been immersed in contaminated fresh- water, rinse and dry and, if applicable, repair the item(s) using the procedures in this WP. 2.    Uncontaminated fresh-water.  If the parachute or its components has been immersed in uncontaminated fresh-water, it will be cleaned and dried as outlined in this WP.  Minor discoloration of fabric items resulting from immersion in uncontaminated fresh-water may occur.  No attempt should be made to eliminate a minor discoloration, as a slight discoloring is preferable to employing vigorous techniques that may damage fabric.  Small stains caused by petroleum products or blood will be removed using spot cleaning procedures outlined in this WP.
