Municipalities will coordinate with ESF #3 (Public Works and Engineering)to provide additional temporary debris collection sites if needed. ESF #3 will also monitor countywide events through the EOC to determine when debris collection sites can begin operation. It is essential that all debris removal issues be coordinated through ESF #3 in order to avoid numerous, unsupervised debris collection/removal sites. To ensure federal reimbursement, ESF #3 will also be responsible for coordination of all federal and state financial assistance, record-keeping, auditing procedures and oversight related to debris removal.
