Each year natural disasters challenge American communities. The National Science and Technology Council estimates these disasters cost the United States $52 billion per year in the form of lives lost and property destroyed. Natural disasters can also generate large amounts of debris adding to the host of challenges for public officials.
The EPA has produced an updated planning guide for local governments and communities in various stages of disaster debris planning. If you are just starting, this is a great resource. If you need a checklist to make sure you’ve covered your bases this is also a great resource.
