<br /> County, City of Wilmington, Pender County, Hyde County, Greene County, and North Topsail Beach. DRC
<br /> used hand labor to comb North Topsail Beach, picking up, recycling, and or disposing of over 200,000 cubic
<br /> yards of all generated debris. Additionally, DRC was activated in Chatham County by the Georgia
<br /> Department of Transportation for debris removal and hazardous tree trimming and removal.
<br /> To date, DRC has removed approximately 20,000 hazardous trees and collected over 700,000 cubic yards of

<br /> 2016 HURRICANE HERMINE
<br /> Carrying the designation "Florida's First Hurricane in more than a Decade," Hurricane Hermine hit the state's
<br /> I panhandle coast on Friday September 2nd and left a trail of damage and flooding in its wake. After receiving a
<br /> Presidential "Major Disaster Declaration," DRC was activated to provide debris removal services in two of the
<br /> most severely impacted counties.
<br /> Citrus County was impacted heavily as storm surge waters inundated hundreds of homes, generating more
<br /> than a thousand tons of residential flood debris, and tens of thousands of cubic yards of vegetation which DRC
<br /> successfully removed and disposed of in less than 30 days.
<br /> Leon County, home of Florida's capital city Tallahassee and one of the most severely impacted Counties in the
<br /> I state activated DRC's contract in a secondary capacity to augment the level of service being provided by their
<br /> primary provider. DRC assisted in successfully bringing the program to completion by removing and
<br /> disposing of 14,214.85 cubic yards of debris.
