5. Are You Ready? • Pre-Disaster Planning • Inventory of public infrastructure • Pictures, videos & GIS coordinates, value, insurance • Store inventory in a safe location, not in a facility that is likely to be destroyed • Individual Assistance • Know your community: minority, elderly, special needs, uninsured populations

6. Are You Ready? • Pre-Disaster Planning • Contracts: • Gap Analysis - Determine needs & contracts for those needs • Primary - Pre-event contracts in place • Secondary - Develop list of pre-qualified contractors

7. Are You Ready? • Request for a Presidential Declaration: What we need from you: • Have a comprehensive initial damage assessment • Be organized & prepared to receive the State-FEMA PDA team • Appoint someone to investigate & report on the economic impact of the event

8. Are You Ready? • Documentation • Critical for reimbursement (2nd biggest reason for deobligation) • Pre-event policies that allow overtime • Maintenance records • Force account labor & equipment • Insurance received • Assure that contractors provide detailed accounting for charges: who did what, where & when

9. Are You Ready? • Procurement • Critical for reimbursement (first biggest reason for de-obligation) • Must follow 44 CFR 13.36 • Cost analysis needed for RFP & when FEMA questions reasonable cost

10. Are You Ready? • Debris Operations • Very complicated with lots of moving pieces, i.e. push & shove, removal, disposal (burn sites), leaner & hangers • Best practice: Have a person that understands debris operations & monitors the contractors - DO NOT rely upon the contractors to be FEMA compliant • Lots of money at stake in debris operations - pay close attention
