WHY PLAN FOR DEBRIS?

$8 Billion

$12 Million

CHALLENGES Complexity Coordination Public Expectations Reimbursement Community Recovery

FEMA DEBRIS GUIDELINES Poses a threat to life, public health, or safety Located on public property or in the ROW Generated by a major disaster event Removal ensures economic recovery Removal costs are “reasonable” / competitive Responsibility of the applicant Complete all debris activities within 6 months!

PLANNING PITFALLS

CAUTION FEMA 325 (“The Debris Bible”) Google “Best practices” Templates

PROBLEM VS. SOLUTION Be careful not to develop the wrong right answer.

CREEPING ALONG

POOR PLANNING = POOR OUTCOMES

LESSONS BORROWED

ECONOMICS

PLANNING VARIABLES Staffing Equipment Time Space Expertise Contractors Non-Profit State Agencies Federal Agencies Complex Rules

ECONOMICS & EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT Using limited resources efficiently? Maximizing potential resources to scale up? Leveraging our staff? Creating partnerships to enhance capabilities? Developing more flexible and responsive systems? Building redundancy into our plans?

Convene the right people Ask the difficult questions Develop new partnerships Address the gaps Implement at all levels Continuous improvement VALUE ADDED APPROACH

LESSONS LEARNED

DESIGN REFLECTS INTENT “Design is the first signal of human intention.” – William McDonough

PLANS DO NOT MATTER “The presence of plans has no correlation to the improvement in disaster response. None.” -Managing Chaos: A Disaster Planner’s Handbook (2013)

IMPROVEMENT IS CONTINUOUS Debris is messy and complex Every event is a teaching moment Peers and private sector can inspire Public expects and deserves the best

MEASURING SUCCESS?

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT Have we helped our stakeholders? Have we maximized the use of resources? Have we addressed the key gaps identified? Have we met our response / recovery metrics? What have we learned from recent events? How can we do better? Are we setting our stakeholders up for success?

INSPIRATION THROUGH PLANS Maximize the value to our stakeholders by: Asking the difficult questions Maximizing the use of resources Enhancing partnerships Expedite recovery timelines

LET’S NOT BECOME A CLICHÉ
