<br /> <br /> <br />Event: Hurricane Irma, FEMA-4337-DR <br /> <br /> <br />City of Plantation <br /> <br />Steve Rodgers <br />Director of Public <br />Works <br />400 NW 73rd Avenue <br />Plantation, FL 33317 <br />(954) 452-2535 <br /> <br />Performance Dates: <br />09/2017 to 12/2017 <br /> <br />DEBRIS VOLUME: 500,000 CY OF DEBRIS REMOVAL AND 12,000 <br />HAZARDOUS TREE, LIMBS, AND STUMP REMOVALS <br />CONTRACT VALUE: <br />$8,200,063.00 <br /> <br />The 2017 hurricane season was an extremely active year with multiple large-scale disasters impacting the <br />United States mainland. Upon the landfall of Hurricane Harvey causing widespread damage throughout the <br />western gulf coast, TFR was activated to assist the Texas Dept. of Transportation with debris removal <br />operations in many areas of the state. Within two weeks of these activations, disaster struck again with the <br />south Florida landfall of Hurricane Irma. Making an initial impact near the Florida Keys, as a category 4 <br />storm and moving rapidly inland, this cyclone brought with it widespread power outages and countless: <br />downed, snapped, and uprooted trees throughout the state. TFR held a pre-event, secondary contract with <br />the City of Plantation, Florida. However, when this catastrophe struck, the primary contractor did not <br />respond. Within 24 hours of receiving NTP from our client, resources were dispatched and TFR <br />management, as well as equipment, arrived on-site to assist with their recovery efforts. Our extensive in- <br />house resource availability allowed us to self-perform this entire project, without the use of subcontractors, <br />while still fulfilling our demands on other removal missions nationwide. <br /> <br />Given the vast amount of vegetative as well as construction and <br />demolition debris that this storm left behind and the need to segregate, <br />haul, and dispose of it accordingly, TFR dispatched a variety of much- <br />needed assistance to the area. This included numerous bobcat crews for <br />ROW debris segregation, hazardous tree removal crews, large-capacity <br />self-loaders, and field assessors. TFR worked closely with city roadway <br />managers to prioritize our operations planning and provide the fastest <br />Testimonial <br />“In 2017, Hurricane Irma devastated <br />the City of Plantation, Florida. TFR <br />Enterprises was successful with <br />completing the debris removal and <br />recovery efforts for our community.” <br />Steve Rodgers <br /> <br />ITB No. 23-04-01 <br />Disaster Debris Management and Disposal Services <br />28
