• Event Occurs In a Particular Region<br />
• SATOC Contractor Mobilizes For Planning<br />
• < 500K CY of <strong>Debris</strong>: MATOC Executes<br />
• 500K – 10M CY of <strong>Debris</strong>: SATOC &<br />

Wet <strong>Debris</strong>
Wet <strong>Debris</strong><br />
• Definition - <strong>Debris</strong> in commonly navigated<br />
waterways and in wetland areas.<br />
• USACE has primary responsibility for removal of<br />
debris from Federally maintained navigation<br />
channels & waterways.<br />
• FEMA may task USACE to remove eligible wet<br />
debris or to provide technical assistance to state<br />
and local governments in wet debris management.<br />
• SOP under development for wet debris.
Contaminated <strong>Debris</strong><br />
• EPA is the lead agency for removal and disposal<br />
• USACE lead agency for:<br />
– Emergency clearing of contaminated debris<br />
– Structural instability (evaluate and mitigate threats posed<br />
by damaged infrastructure)<br />
– Demolition<br />
• Training 2 PRTs for contaminated debris response<br />
• MOA being developed with the EPA to define the<br />
roles and responsibilities
Technical Assistance<br />
• PRT provides assistance to state and local<br />
governments to set up their own debris<br />
removal programs<br />
• <strong>Debris</strong> PRT may split up to different counties<br />
if needed to help them implement their debris<br />
removal program
