SeaWorld divers asked to resign after emergency raises questions:

December 8, 2007

An hour before sunrise, three SeaWorld Orlando workers in scuba gear began slipping into the cool salt water of Dolphin Cove one day in late September for their cleaning chores -- only to encounter a life-and-death emergency that would nearly kill one diver and lead to the resignations of two others, one of whom was credited with helping to save her life.

It was the last weekend of a record summer, and all seemed well. Then, the accident plunged diver Andrea Preito, unconscious and not breathing -- and, for a time, unnoticed -- to the bottom of the dolphin pool.

Preito, 36, was rescued. She had no pulse when paramedics arrived, but she was resuscitated and, later, returned to work.The accident was a stark reminder for all SeaWorld workers that even routine duties can be dangerous. It also tested SeaWorld's safety procedures and disciplinary policies, and the crisis capabilities of team members who love their unusual jobs and entrust their lives to one another.

Shortly after the accident, the cleaning dives were rescheduled for later in the morning -- after sunrise. A spokeswoman said that change was made because of other scheduling issues, not because of the accident.
