ORC ES, ORC Inc, and their affiliates in the ORC Group have successfully accomplished
numerous debris removal, management, reduction, and disposal contracts throughout the
Southeastern United States, and the U.S. territories in the Caribbean and Pacific Ocean. DRC,
ORC ES, and their affiliates and associated companies and subcontractors have together
recovered in excess of 30,000,000 cubic yards of debris over the past almost 20 years.
During the aftermath of Hurricane's Charley, Jeanne, Frances, and Ivan striking Florida during
2004, ORC mobilized on 37 separate, virtually simultaneous contracts removing approximately

original condition. Following Hurricanes Dennis, Katrina, Rita, and Wilma in 2005, DRC
assisted in recovery efforts everywhere from the Florida Keys to Houston, Texas.

achieve this estimate, ORC will chip and grind approximately 2,700 yards of debris a day.
Approximately 8000 cubic yards will then be hauled out by 2 (two) chip trailers hauling 5 (five)
loads of debris a day.
MOBILIZATION PLAN
ORC Emergency Services (ORC ES) will mobilize dozens to hundreds of personnel and
equipment crews immediately upon request. Our first, advance deployments will be strategically

50,000 gallons of diesel fuel and 5,000 gallons of gasoline, as well as 3 fuel tanker trucks,
centrally and safely located inland in the Southeast United States for immediate mobilization in
areas affected by fuel shortage.
Personnel Trainim!
All personnel records (management, supervisors, foremen and laborers) shall be reviewed prior
to deployment of personnel, to ensure all personnel have documentation of current training for
each position that they could be assigned (in accordance with OSHA, EP A, and other applicable
regulations and standards).
EMERGENCY DEBRIS CLEARANCE (PUSH)
As tasked by the GOVERNMENT, ORC will provide Emergency Road Clearance which
involves the emergency clearing, cutting, tossing and/or pushing of debris from the primary
transportation routes to the medians or sides of the public rights-of-way (ROW). Under direction
of the GOVERNMENT, ORC crews will work independently or in conjunction with
GOVERNMENT crews to temporarily clear debris from pre-designated critical arteries to
facilitate the movement of emergency vehicles and other critical traffic in the immediate
aftermath of a disaster. Only a single lane is usually cleared at first with the additional lanes
being cleared according to the needs and requirements of the affected community. In addition,
entrances and routes to hospitals and emergency service facilities, such as fire and police
departments, are given priority for this emergency debris and fallen tree clearance.
The equipment utilized in this operation can include, but is not limited to: large rubber tired
loaders with grapples or rakes; small bobcat type loaders to access narrow areas; and other
specialized clearing equipment as may be required by local conditions. Additionally, service
trucks for maintenance and/or fuel and vehicles for personnel transportation and supervision are
21
o
required. Personnel, such as heavy equipment operators, truck drivers, and operators with
chainsaws, general laborers with tools, flagmen, mechanics, supervisors, and project managers
are usually required.
This operation is accomplished when time is of the essence, norn1ally within the first 72 (plus or
minus) hours after an event. Although this is a time critical operation, safety of personnel and the
general public is paramount to a successful operation. Extreme caution must be exercised during
this phase of the debris management operation to avoid downed live electrical wires and other
such dangerous circumstances. Once this task is accomplished, or coinciding with the progress
of this task, debris removal from public easements, property and rights-of-way begins.
EMERGENCY PUSH EQUIPMENT AND CREWS
ORC FIELD SUPERVISORS/CREW FOREMEN - Field supervisors will report to the senior
field supervisor/project manager. All supervisors will be responsible to ensure work is
conducted only in those areas designated by the government. Supervisors will not allow work to

This operation specifically entails the recovery and removal (pick-up and hauling) of all eligible
debris from public easements, property and rights-of-way to designated Debris Management
Sites and/or directly to a final disposal site. Eligible debris is typically that debris which was
23
o
o
G
either generated directly by the event or as a result of the event, and is in the public Right of Way
and not on private property:
1. Vegetative debris (stumps, logs and limbs)
2. Construction and demolition (C&D) debris
3. Metallic debris
4. White goods (refrigerators, air conditioners, washers and dryers, etc.)
5. Electronics
6. Household Garbage
7. Hazardous and toxic wastes (HTW) (industrial, commercial and household)
8. Asbestos Containing Material (ACM)
The equipment and personnel utilized for each operational phase will vary by the type, quantity

will be measured by the GOVERNMENT or representative thereof. DRC will provide
appropriate measurement forms as specified.
At the Staging Area, Safety Officers will inspect all equipment before allowing it to be
mobilized. A Safety Report on equipment, personnel, and PPE will be provided to the
GOVERNMENT.
24
-
o Segregation of Debris
If differing types of debris are commingled and or not previously segregated by property owners,
debris segregation must be accomplished before debris removal can take place. For this purpose,
ORC will deploy debris segregation crews. Typical ORC segregation crews will include 1
foreman, 3 laborers, and I Bobcat loader with grapple.
Proper segregation will place each type of debris listed above in its own discrete aggregation,
safely out of roads, streets, sidewalks, and other means of travel, but still aggregated on public
rights of way and easements, easily accessible to removal vehicles and crews, and clear of
private property.
Right of Wav Clearing
Within 24 hours of Task Order Notice to Proceed, ORC will commence debris removal
operations with 5 or more Debris Removal Crews. Debris Removal Crews will typically consist
of 5 dump trucks of 16-20 cubic yard capacity with operators, 1 front end loader with operator, 1
foreman, and 3 laborerslflagmen. As necessary or directed by the GOVERNMENT, crews will
be augmented by equipment and personnel detailed below in order to accomplish removal of
specific types of debris.
o
Major debris types and specialized requirements are detailed below.
A. Vegetative Debris
Vegetative debris operations equipment may include, but is not limited to: rubber tired loaders
with buckets, rakes, grapples, or 4 in 1 buckets; rubber tired excavators with grapples or thumbs;
telehandlers; track type loaders with rakes, grapples or 4 in 1 buckets (to be utilized only under
certain pennitted conditions); trailer or truck mounted knuckle booms with grapples or clam
shells; self-loading trucks (knuckle boom with grapples or clam shells); fann type tractors with
box blades, flat blades or brooms; bobcat type loaders; bucket trucks with 50' booms for
hazardous tree and limb trimming; 30 ton or larger cranes to remove heavy stumps and or trunks;
haul trucks ranging in size from 16 to 120 cubic yard capacity; roll-off dumpsters; flat-bed
tractor trailers to transport equipment or stumps and oversized tree trunks, fuel and service
trucks.
Vegetative debris operations personnel requirements may include, but are not limited to,
equipment operators; superintendents with trucks; foremen with trucks; operators with
chainsaws; traffic control personnel; general laborers with tools; safety personnel; mechanics;
hazardous materials technicians; documentation personnel; quality assurance personnel and
project managers.
It is the policy of ORC to maintain all debris work sites at the appropriate use standards, safety
standards, and regulatory requirements. Debris removal operations should be closely overseen
C by GOVERNMENT or GOVERNMENT-approved representative and/or foreman on-site during
25
o
w
I r""\
..,
all working hours. These representatives are to ensure and document the removal and recovery
of only eligible debris and should initiate the multi-part debris documentation program.
B. Construction and Demolition (C & D) Debris
C&O debris operations may utilize the same equipment as listed above for vegetative debris.
Curbside separation by the contractor and public can be very important to ensure proper
segregation of vegetative from C & 0 debris and to attempt to segregate any hazardous and/or
household hazardous waste. A debris pick-up and haul operation that is primarily focused on
C&O debris may also require equipment such as: 0-6 or larger dozers; track-type excavators
with impact hammers, electromagnets and/or concrete shears and/or grapples, and other
specialized equipment to segregate or prepare the debris for transport. The personnel
requirements for C&O debris operations are similar if not identical to those of vegetative debris
operations. ORC and its subcontractors own or have access to the equipment required for these
services, including front-end loaders, excavators, rubber-tired backhoes, most with grapples or 4
in 1 buckets, knuckle boom loaders, dump trucks, dump trailers and service trucks.
C. Metallic Debris and White Goods
White goods can present a difficult dilemma to the recovery efforts. If the white goods contain
Freon, this Freon must be removed before it is accidentally released into the air in violation of
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations. Typically, white goods are moved to
debris management sites prior to Freon removal so the removal activities can be more effectively
monitored and thoroughly controlled. Freon is then removed by a licensed Freon recycler and
the white goods are crushed or shredded in the recycling program.
White goods recovery (pick-up and haul), with the exception of white goods requiring Freon
recovery, is treated and accomplished as though it were either C&D debris or recyclable debris,
dependent upon the final disposal source. Each Freon containing piece of white goods should be
hand or mechanically loaded in such a way as to not allow crushing of the Freon lines or
premature release of the Freon. Equipment and personnel would also be treated as a C&O debris
or recyclable debris operation, dependent upon the final disposal source. ORC has extensive
experience with white goods and Freon recovery. ORC recovered, shred and removed an
estimated 80,000 pieces of white goods in one major storm alone.
Removal of Freon, chemicals, food, and/or fluids from white goods will be accomplished only
by properly licensed and credentialed personnel.
O. Hazardous and Toxic Waste
Hazardous and toxic waste (HTW) is a special operational aspect that must be accomplished with
very precise, pre-established standards and regulations. Safety to the workers, government
employees and the citizens of the area is paramount. With this in mind, ORC works with its
specialized subcontractors to establish and implement proper handling procedures for HTW,
including household hazardous waste, which, after a disaster, may become concentrated and no
longer considered diminimous. These procedures include the segregation and removal of HTW
26
o
o
G
from the debris stream at the curbside, prior to the recovery of other debris and sorting and
additional recovery of HTW within each TDSR site. Recovered HTW is removed to a proper
disposal site or temporarily stored in the HTW disposal areas constructed within each TOSR site
as required. HTW must be collected, handled and disposed of by specially trained HAZMA T
technicians. In addition, ORC may utilize national or regional firms who are fully licensed and
accredited to manage, handle and dispose of HTW. These firms may be utilized by ORC and/or
ORC Environmental, Inc. for professional and immediate HTW recovery support on an
emergency basis.
E. Asbestos Containing Materials
Known or suspect asbestos containing material will besegregated from other debris and handled
only by licensed and certified asbestos contractor/supervisors, of which ORC has 5 on staff.
ACMs will be encapsulated for hauling, typically in a "burrito" style containment or wrap, and
brought directly to an asbestos accepting disposal facility.
In sum, all special wastes will be handled according to the removal and disposal specifications of
the GOVERNMENT and will confonn to all local, state, and federal environmental, legal, and
transportation regulations and will be performed only by licensed, certified, and otherwise
properly credentialed personnel and/or subcontractors.

Within 24 hours of Task Order Notice to Proceed, personnel and equipment will be deployed to
establish Debris Management Sites (OMS) at locations identified in conjunction with the
GOVERNMENT and local governmental entities, including, but not limited to the building of
roads, erecting of fences, construction of containment areas, and placement of inspection towers.
At minimum, the OMS equipment and crews will consist of: Air Curtain Incinerator, 1
Trackhoe, 2 Dozers, 2 towers, 5 16-20 cubic yard dump trucks, 1 rubber tired loader, 1 water
truck, 1 motor grader, Tub Grinder, 1 Site Manager, 1, Night Manager, 8 equipment operators, 2
Supervisors, 5 laborers, Light Plants, HTW containment systems.
OMS teams will also secure all necessary clearances, permits, and licenses to operate the site and
will submit Site Plans to the GOVERNMENT complete with Site Specific Safety and/or
Accident Prevention Plans, a Traffic Control Plan to properly manage site ingress and egress, a
Dust Control Plan, and/or a Fire Prevention Plan. Within 48-72 hours, OMSs will be fully
operational complete with ingress and egress points, inspection towers, water runoff protection,
and containment berms and/or geotextile.
Site selection will typically be the responsibility of the GOVERNMENT or can be accomplished
by ORC in conjunction with the GOVERNMENT. Site locations are nonnally reviewed and
approved in advance for future disaster events. Site selection criteria includes ownership
(privately owned vs. the preferred government owned site), size requirements based on quantity
of debris projected, location within or in the proximity of the affected area, and the history of the
site (such as historical or archaeological significance, environmental impact, security
considerations and proximity to the general public).
ORC normally operates and manages an appropriate number of TOSR sites strategically located
throughout the disaster area to accept and process all categories of debris. Primary site
preparation may include, but is not necessarily limited to, construction and maintenance of
primary roads for ingress or egress, and any roads required within the site, environmental
requirements, inspection and observation towers, wind-blown debris control fencing, silt fencing
and stonn-water retention and diversion berms. To facilitate the documentation and quality
control system utilized by DRC, a sturdy roofed inspection towers are constructed and/or
delivered during this early phase of site preparations. DRC also typically constructs an area for
office trailers and parking for administrative personnel, inspectors and GOVERNMENT
personnel.
30
...
o The inspection of every load, in and out, is critical to the documentation of the overall process.
The TOSR site inspection towers are the location of the load verification and documentation
programs of all incoming and, later outgoing, debris. Once documented, all debris is processed
in accordance with applicable local, state and federal rules, standards, and regulations.

DEBRIS STAGING SITE KEY STEPS - The following information will be utilized to create a
location specific site management plan and site safety plan to accompany this plan.
31
~
o
SITE ACCESS - Separate points of ingress and egress should be established if possible.
Temporary acceleration and deceleration lanes should be established adjacent to the primary road
leading to and from site access points, if approved by Government and appropriate authority
having jurisdiction over primary road right-of-way. All temporary roads leading to and through
the debris-staging site should be constructed and maintained for all weather use (i.e. - rock laid
roads).
INSPECTION TOWERS - Inspection towers shall be constructed to facilitate observation and
quantification of debris hauled for storage at debris staging sites. No less than two inspections
towers should be utilized at each debris-staging site. One tower at point of ingress for use by
company inspector and Government inspector, one tower at point of egress to ensure all debris
hauling trucks are in fact empty upon leaving the site, one tower may be utilized if ingress and
egress point is the same. The egress tower should be manned by at least a representative of The
Company. An example blueprint, construction of, and design of a typical inspection tower for
GOVERNMENT operations is attached at the end of this plan.
TRAFFIC CONTROLS - Traffic control personnel, with appropriate traffic control safety
equipment, will be stationed at the ingress observation tower to maintain vehicular and
pedestrian traffic control. Additional traffic control personnel will be stationed throughout the
site, as needed, to enforce proper dumping and prevent personal injury to ensure compliance with
the Corporate Accident Prevention Plan as part of the Corporate Safety Plan.
o
CLEARING AND GRADING - Clearing and grading of debris staging sites will be
accomplished, to the level required, in accordance with the site management plan and task order
from the Government.
ENVIRONMENT AL PROTECTION - The Company's "Environmental Protection Plan", which
incorporates such issues as erosion control, hazardous and toxic wastes, dust and smoke control
(Clean Water Act, Storm Water Act, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act and others), is incorporated in full by attachment at the
end of this plan. Environmentally sensitive areas (i.e. - wetlands, habitat, historical sites, etc.)
within, or in proximity to, a debris staging site, will be avoided, designated as sensitive,
protected, and access restricted to the extent possible, from adverse impact. Activity within
environmentally sensitive areas will be prohibited. All requirements of pertinent environmental
standards will be complied with.
DEBRIS STORAGE AREAS - Debris will be segregated into 5 main areas of concern as follows
unless otherwise instructed by the Government.
Q
. Vegetative debris - Vegetative debris will be cleaned of C&O debris to the extent
possible to facilitate compliance with requirements for reduction of vegetative debris.
. Construction and Demolition (C&O) Debris - C&O debris will be dampened prior to
dumping and periodically as needed, to comply with Local, State and Federal EP A
standards.
. Recyclable/salvage - Recyclable/salvageable materials will be stock piled in accordance
with Government task order.
32
o
o
o
. White goods - White goods will be stock piled in accordance with Government task
order.
. Hazardous and/or toxic wastes (HTW) - HTW will be segregated and stored in a
Government approved containment area. All site personnel will receive a safety briefing
regarding operations involving HTW to prevent personal injury and ensure compliance
with the Corporate Accident Prevention Plan as part of the Corporate Safety Plan. HTW
containment site perimeter will be posted and secured for personnel safety. An example
template for Construction & Design of HTW containment site is attached at the end of
this plan.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Water Trucks - The required number of water trucks will be stationed at each debris-staging site.
Water trucks will be utilized to reduce the threat of friable materials from C&D debris being
released into the atmosphere. Water trucks will be utilized to reduce the threat of fire from all
types of debris. If necessary, water trucks will be utilized in fire suppression operations. Water
trucks will be utilized to dampen areas, including temporary roadways, to suppress dust from
trucks entering and leaving the debris-staging site.
Fire Extinguishers - Fire extinguishers will be located throughout each debris-staging site as
required by the site management plan, site safety plan, OSHA requirements and government task
order. All debris staging site personnel will be trained in incipient fire suppression operations
and safety procedures, to include operation of fire extinguishers and water trucks and to ensure
compliance with the Corporate Accident Prevention Plan as part of the Corporate Safety Plan.
DEBRIS SEGREGATION
DEBRIS SEGREGATION A T STAGING SITES - Staging site supervisors will ensure that all
debris haul operators deposit debris in areas designated for the type debris hauled. Debris hauled
to staging sites in mixed loads will be segregated by heavy equipment when possible and by
hand crew when necessary. Vegetative debris will be placed into two separate piles. The first
pile (pile one) will be the dumping point until a sufficient quantity has been accumulated to
commence a continuous reduction operation. Pile two will be started and accumulated until the
reduction of the pile one has been completed. At which time, dumping of vegetative debris on
pile two will cease and pile one will be replenished. This rotation will continue until the task is
completed. All personnel involved in vegetative debris segregation operations will receive a
safety briefing for all effected job to ensure compliance with the Corporate Accident Prevention
Plan as part of the Corporate Safety Plan. C&O debris will be placed into one or more piles, as
required, to reduce the threat of a fire conflagration until it is reduced or disposed. The
Company will consult with the government, local fire officials and pertinent environmental
officials regarding the requirements for stock piling of C&O debris. White goods will be
segregated, as required by the government task order. White goods will be placed and stored
until instructed by the government as to its final disposition. Salvageable/recyclable materials
33
o will be segregated, as required by the government task order. Salvageable/recyclable materials
will be placed and stored until instructed by the government as to its final disposition. HTW will
be segregated and stored in a Government approved containment area. All site personnel will
receive a safety briefing regarding operations involving HTW. The HTW containment site
perimeter will be posted and secured for personnel safety and to ensure compliance with the
Corporate Accident Prevention Plan as part of the Corporate Safety Plan as well as the Corporate
Environmental Protection Plan (EPP). HTW will be placed and stored until instructed by the
government as to its final disposition.
PROCESSING
o
Processing may include, but is not limited to, reduction by tub grinding and/or chipping,
incineration when approved, or other alternate methods of reduction such as compaction, baling,
separation, recycling, crushing or shredding. Prior to reduction operations being undertaken, all
debris is nonnally segregated between vegetative debris, construction and demolition debris
(C&O), recyclable debris, white goods and hazardous and toxic wastes (HTW). Further detailed
segregation of materials by classification (tires, batteries, metals, roofing materials, etc.) is often
required. This segregation operation utilizes both manpower and specialized equipment. The
equipment could include front-end loaders and trackhoes with buckets, grapples and/or Electro-
magnets, mechanical screens, and/or knuckle boom loaders to segregate burnable from non-
burnable debris. The manpower requirements are primarily supervisors, equipment operators,
mechanics, flagmen, inspectors and general laborers, with the exception of the hazardous
materials/operation, which requires specially trained and equipped technicians. An experienced
site manager, in conjunction with reduction, sorting, hazardous materials, recycling and safety
supervisors, manage, operate and supervise the day-to-day site operations. All reduced debris, as
well as non-reducible debris, is recycled, destroyed or disposed of at permitted (if required)
recycling or disposal sites, as directed by the contracting authority.
Processing of debris is a critical element in a successful TOSR operation. The proper processing
techniques applied to the appropriate debris type can streamline production and reduce overall
cost. Tub grinding and/or chipping is believed to be the most environmentally friendly form of
volume reduction for vegetative and select C&O debris and produces an average of 4: 1 or greater
reduction in volume. The chips produced as a product of grinding and/or chipping can often be
utilized as a recyclable product. Chips can be utilized as daily cover in a landfill operation, given
away as a landscaping product to the general public, given away or after-marketed to an
incineration facility as a fuel source, utilized as an agricultural supplement, and in numerous
other uses.
:)
Incineration is another cost effective reduction technique and can produce as much as a 95%
reduction in overall burnable debris volume. Although the least environmentally friendly option,
open air burning has been successfully utilized by ORC when directed by clients. The typical
vegetative natural disaster debris, when open-air burned creates substantial smoke and air
pollution. Air-Curtain incineration, however, by design, eliminates the majority of particulate
and smoke pollution while increasing the bum rate volume. Air-Curtain Incineration can be

accomplished through the construction of an underground bum pit, the construction of an above
ground bum pit or by the utilization of a pre-fabricated portable incineration unit.
DEBRIS REDUCTION
This section discusses guidelines to be followed during debris reduction operations not already
addressed in this plan. If required by a government task order or notice-to-proceed, night
operations may be conducted. Night operations shall be limited to reduction of debris by burning.
Night operations shall only be conducted upon a determination by the Company Safety Officer,
and concurrence by the government, that such operations can be conducted in a safe manner.
BURNING OPERA nONS
Open Air Burning - Open air burning of disaster related debris is prohibited by and within
numerous jurisdictions. Open air burning will be accomplished on vegetative debris and/or clean
woody debris only when directed by government task order. Under no circumstance will open
air burning be conducted on C&O debris that is known, considered or suspect, by the
government and the Company, to contain environmental/health hazardous materials (i.e.
asbestos, arsenic, etc.). All appropriate fire protection measures will be established and
maintained in accordance with the site management plan, site safety plan and the government
task order. All personnel involved in open air burning operations will receive safety training
pertaining to this to ensure compliance with the Corporate Accident Prevention Plan as part of
the Corporate Safety Plan. Open air burning will be conducted above ground level. No open air
burning will be conducted within 1000 feet of a structure or within 100 feet of the debris pile.
An area of not less than 100 feet surrounding each bum site will be cleared of all combustible
materials and marked to delineate the area as restricted.
Air Curtain Burning - Air curtain burning of debris is the preferred method of the Company. Air
curtain burning will be accomplished on vegetative debris and clean woody debris only, unless
otherwise directed by government task order. Under no circumstance will air curtain burning be
conducted on C&O debris that is known, considered or suspect, by the government and the
Company, to contain environmental/health hazardous materials. All appropriate fire protection
measures will be established and maintained in accordance with the site management plan, site
safety plan and the government task order. All personnel involved in air curtain burning
operations will receive safety training pertaining to this to ensure compliance with the Corporate
Accident Prevention Plan as part of the Corporate Safety Plan. Air curtain burning will be
conducted below ground level in a below ground pit, and above ground when geographically
necessary. If above ground burning is required it will be conducted in an approved container
suitable for the operation. If a below ground pit is used the pit shall be at least 8 feet, and no
more than 20 feet, in depth and will be no wider than 1.1 times the width of the air curtain
nozzle, and no longer than 10-12 feet (15 feet maximum). No air curtain burning will be
conducted within 1000 feet of a structure or within 100 feet of the debris pile. An area of not
less than 100 feet surrounding each bum site will be cleared of all combustible materials and
marked to delineate the area as restricted. All burning will be accomplished as set out in the US
Anny Corps of Engineers "DISASTER GUIDEBOOK"

Q
f;;;
Ash Disposal Area - At the end of each burning cycle, the ash residue from the burning
operations shall be removed from the burning area and placed in a pre-identified Ash Disposal
Area. The burning operations personnel will utilize this area to temporarily store the ash
material prior to final disposal. The ash residue will be tested in accordance with the soil testing
procedures located in the EPP to establish the need to install a ground-water protection barrier in
the Ash Disposal Area. Should a liner be required, an impervious layer of clay and/or limestone
should be utilized to protect the aquifer (ground water) from potential contamination. This liner
should be replaced and reinstated should it be disturbed or removed by heavy equipment
operations. Control of dust produced as a result of handling and/or the storage of ash residue
will be accomplished in accordance with the appropriate requirements of the EPP. Once the ash
residue has reached a quantity requiring disposal, samples of the ash will be taken and examined
in accordance with the EPP, to establish the requirements for disposal (Class I Subtitle 0
Landfill vs. Class III Landfill vs. agricultural recycling techniques).
GRINDING and/or CHIPPING OPERA TI0NS- Grinding and/or chipping operations will be
accomplished on all vegetative debris, not reduced by burning operations. Grinding and/or
chipping operation is the preferred method of reduction for vegetative debris to accomplish
environmental resource conservation through recycle/salvage of wood chips. Although this
operation is preferred for environmental purposes, it is, however, the most time consuming and
costly reduction operation due to material handling and haul disposal costs after grinding and/or
chipping operations have been accomplished. Grinding and/or chipping operations of C&O
materials are prohibited by and within numerous jurisdictions. Grinding and/or chipping
operations will be accomplished on the type of debris (vegetative and/or C&O) as directed by
government task order. Grinding and/or chipping of vegetative debris will be accomplished on
the piles of vegetative debris as set out below.
Vegetative debris will be placed into two separate piles. The first pile (pile one) will be the
dumping point until a sufficient quantity has been accumulated to commence a continuous
reduction operation. Pile two will be started and accumulated until the reduction of the pile one
has been completed. At which time, dumping of vegetative debris on pile two will cease and pile
one will be replenished. This rotation will continue until the task is completed.
All personnel involved in vegetative debris grinding and/or chipping operations will receive a
safety briefing for all effected job functions.
A track-type tractor with blade or a rubber tire loader will pick-up, and stockpile chips for
temporary storage. Chips will be loaded out and hauled to a final disposal site as quickly as
possible to reduce the threat of a fire conflagration.
All appropriate fire protection measures will be established and maintained in accordance with
the site management plan, site safety plan and the government task order. Water trucks will be
utilized to reduce the threat of fire from all types of debris. If necessary, water trucks will be
utilized in fire suppression operations.

"
"-
Fire Extinguishers - Fire extinguishers will be located throughout each debris-staging site as
required by the site management plan, site safety plan, OSHA requirements and government task
order. All grinding and/or chipping operations personnel will be trained in incipient fire
suppression operations and safety procedures, to include operation of fire extinguishers and
water trucks to ensure compliance with the Corporate Accident Prevention Plan as part of the
Corporate Safety Plan.
MAINTENANCE/FUEL VEHICLES AND PERSONNEL - Maintenance/fuel vehicles will be
assigned and manned as needed to provide an adequate supply of fuel to maintain equipment
operations. Maintenance/fuel vehicles will be assigned and manned as needed to provide all
required field maintenance to ensure equipment operations.
DEBRIS DISPOSAL
Debris disposal is the pre-planned, pre-approved operation of placing debris in its final resting-
place. Debris disposal operations can be segmented into three distinct operations:
. Haul to and tip at debris disposal site
. Physical operation of debris disposal site
. Augmentation of debris disposal site pennanent staff and equipment
DISPOSAL SITE (S) - A disposal site may be a dump and/or a landfill owned and operated by
private or public sectors. Nonburnable debris will be disposed only at a dump and/or landfill
designated to receive materials other than toxic hazardous waste.
EQUIPMENT - Debris disposal hauling equipment will include, but not limited to:
. 16-30 cubic yard dump trucks
. 30-100 cubic yard tractor-trailers or other such haulers as the government may direct.
Past experience has shown that the farther the haul distance, larger capacity trucks are more
effective.
08.1.6) All haul truck beds shall be equipped with tailgates constructed of materials (i.e. -
chain link fence, safety fence, etc.) that will safely contain debris, allow each haul truck to be
loaded to it's capacity and also allow rapid dumping of debris from the bed. Any haul truck bed
that has or will have vertical extensions installed, will comply with the following restrictions.
· Disposal haul truck bed extensions shall comply with all applicable Local, State and
Federal laws.
· Bed extensions, when installed, will be located and secured to the front-end, left side and
right side of the bed.
. Bed extensions shall not extend beyond 24 inches above the manufacturers bed height.
. Bed extensions will be constructed of not less than 2"x6" lumber.
37

All disposal trucks shall be pre-measured and accepted by the government before being utilized
in debris removal operations.
MAINTENANCE/FUEL VEHICLES AND PERSONNEL - Maintenance/fuel vehicles will be
assigned and manned as needed to provide an adequate supply of fuel to maintain equipment
operations. Maintenance/fuel vehicles will be assigned and manned as needed to provide all
required field maintenance to ensure equipment operations.
SAFETY - All supervisors and/or foremen will utilize the check sheet provided by the Company
Safety Officer to ensure all safety equipment is maintained and operable on all debris disposal
hauling equipment and to ensure compliance with the Corporate Accident Prevention Plan as
part of the Corporate Safety Plan.
OPERA TIONS - All field supervisors shall ensure that all debris disposal-hauling operators are
licensed and/or certified to operate required equipment. All debris disposal operators will be
given area maps designating assignment/authorized areas of operations as well as transport
routes designated and/or approved by the Government. All debris disposal haul operators shall
visibly display colored signs provided by the Company and, if applicable, the Government. The
Company signs are magnetic signs to be placed on the driver and passenger doors of the vehicle
cab. Any signs provided by the government will be displayed on both sides of the forward most
section of the vehicle bed, unless otherwise directed by the government task order. All signs will
be removed from the exterior of the vehicle, at close of business each day and secured by the
driver to prevent theft or loss. Signs will be replaced on the vehicle at the beginning of the
workday. Colored paper signs/passes will be displayed in the driver's side windshield of each
vehicle. The color of the sign/pass is subject to change, without notice, to ensure quality control
measures regarding authority to exit work sites and enter disposal site(s). All debris disposal
haul operators shall maintain the numbered debris hauling/transportation documentation/
verification form ORC-DM-12. Each form contains directions, which should be followed. All
supervisors will be responsible to ensure that all employees utilizing and/or inputting infonnation
on the form are procedurally trained. It will be each supervisor's responsibility to maintain a
supply of the required number of fonns. Forms will be distributed by supervisors/foremen to
debris disposal haul operators during loading operations and after completing Section 1 of form
DRC-OM-12. All debris disposal operators will maintain daily ticketlhaul records to be turned
into field supervisors, with copies ofload tickets at close of business each day.
DEBRIS STAGING SITE RESTORATION
Restoration is conducted during the closing of each TOSR site. The scope of remediation is
determined during operation and closure, by terms of the land lease (if any), or government
directive or task order. Remediation consists of final removal of all debris (including residual
debris), removal and remediation of HTW, abatement of any safety and/or environmental
concerns (to include environmental testing and/or monitoring, if required), the removal of
temporary structures (including any inspection towers), grading and leveling, removal of roads
and fencing, if appropriate, and potentially grassing or seeding of the site, if required, to
f' documented pre-use condition.
..,
38
Q
Remediation of Debris Staging Sites is the process of returning the site to pre-use, and in some
cases, pre-event condition. Debris Staging Site Restoration is perforn1ed in four primary phases.
. Pre-use inspection and documentation
. Operational Environmental Protection
. Closure Procedures
. Final inspection, release, and acceptance of Government and/or Landowner
Each Debris Staging Site will require inspection prior to use, for the following:
. Existing topography
. Existing vegetation (grass, shrubs, trees)
. On-site or near-site water sources
. Existing structure and their current condition
. Any 'other distinguishing characteristics such as hazardous and/or non-hazardous
materials stored on site
When required, a basic Environmental Impact Statement, III accordance with the company's
Environmental Protection Plan shall be accomplished.
o
Documentation - A narrative description shall be prepared for each site. Sketches and/or
drawings (basic) shall be produced to illustrate the current condition of the site and its contents,
as well as content location. Still photographs or video will be taken of each site, both ground
level and aerial, to additionally illustrate the pre-use condition of the site and its contents.
Environmental Sampling to include:
. Random soil samples, surface and sub-surface, my be taken and sealed in containers for
comparison with post-use samples taken at the time of site closure when possible
contamination is evident.
. Prior to sealing these samples, a small portion of each sample will be field tested to
determine the presence of contaminants prior to use of the site.
. On-site and off-site samples will be taken of any impactable water source.
. Water source samples will be stored and tested using the criteria stated above.
. Samples of both water and soil will be taken in accordance with the above standards after
operations have ended (post use samples).
. Post use samples and pre-use samples will be tested in the Corporate Laboratory and/or
another Certified Laboratory to determine the presence of contaminants.
o
Should contaminants be identified in the pre-use field test, a determination of whether or not a
particular site or area of a site should be utilized will need to be made by ORC Senior
Management and the client representative. Should contaminants be identified in post use test
results that were not present in pre-use test results, remediation of the site or area of the site will
be accomplished in accordance with Federal, State and local regulations as well as current
industry standards.

~
OPERA TIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION - All work performed at and/or in
relation to a debris-staging site will be performed in a skilled and workman-like manner. All
debris staging site operations shall be conducted in accordance with the Company's
Environmental Protection Plan and to ensure compliance with the Corporate Accident Prevention
Plan as part of the Corporate Safety Plan.
CLOSURE PROCEDURES - Pre-use inspection and documentation infonnation shall be utilized
as a guide to restore each site to pre-use condition.
REMOVAL OF DEBRIS - Debris residue, not taken to the appropriate disposal site during
debris disposal operations, shall be collected, recorded and hauled to the appropriate disposal
site. ORC or a licensed hazardous waste remediation company shall be retained to accomplish
the removal of all hazardous and/or toxic waste from each site, if not already accomplished under
separate agreement by the Government.
REMOVAL OF TEMPORARY STRUCTURES - All temporary structures such as fencing,
inspection towers, temporary offices, sanitary facilities, etc., shall be removed from each site.
LANDSCAPE OPERATIONS - Each site shall be graded, as required to return the topography
to pre-use elevations, unless otherwise directed by Government task order. Each site will be
vegetatively restored to pre-use condition by seeding, fertilizing and laying of straw as well as
replacement of agreed-upon shrubs and/or trees.
CLOSURE DOCUMENT A TION - The procedures described in Section F3 of this plan shall be
followed for closure documentation.
FINAL INSPECTION, RELEASED AND ACCEPTANCE OF GOVERNMENT AND/OR
LANDOWNER - ORe' Senior Management, the Supervisor responsible for a particular site, the
Governments Representative and if applicable, the landowner shall constitute an inspection team.
The Company Supervisor responsible for the applicable site shall have, for examination by all
Inspection Team members, the documentation package to include pre-use and closure inspection
documentation as well as all chronological documentation created during the operational period.
After all inspection team members accept the post-closure condition of each site, a release and
hold-harmless for the Company shall be signed by the Government and/or landowner, releasing
ORC of any further responsibility and liability.

o 3. TRACKING. REPORTING AND REIMBURSEMENT
FEMA Reimbursement Filing
o
Storm debris management by DRC is subject to inspection by the governmental contracting
entity and/or any Public Authority in accordance with generally accepted standards, to insure
compliance with the contract and applicable local, state and Federal laws. ORC will, at all times,
provide the government access to all work sites and disposal areas and will cooperate completely
with Government Inspectors. In addition, authorized representatives and agents of any
participating Federal or state agency are encouraged to inspect all work and materials. ORC and
the government shall have in place at the TOSRS, personnel to verify the contents and cubic
yards of all vehicles entering the TOSRS. Records are maintained of each load entering the
TOSRS, its cubic yardage is verified, and each vehicle leaving the TOSRS is typically viewed to
verify it was in fact empty. ORC and the government monitor the material to detennine that it in
fact consists of eligible storm debris. ORC and the government nonnally have in place at the
pick up site, personnel to verify the contents, location, date and time of the vehicles departing for
the TOSRS and to issue the load ticket for that load which is to ensure the eligibility of the
debris. Prior to use, ORC recommends that the government, including FEMA, if possible,
establish and record the certified cubic yard capacity and perform a safety inspection of each
haul vehicle. DRC recommends that all measurements be conducted by government personnel or
independent third parties, and not DRC or the subcontractor. ORC has in the past provided
disposal tickets, field inspection reports, and other data and/or forms sufficient to provide
substantiation for Federal (FEMA, etc.) and State reimbursement to its government clients. ORC
personnel and subcontractors have worked closely with various State Emergency Management
Agencies, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and other applicable State, local and
Federal Agencies to insure that eligible debris collection and the data documenting is sufficient
and appropriately addressed.
Data Management and Tracking
ORC ES tracks costs on a real time basis using a Daily Progress Report that is completed and
submitted daily to the on-site project manager. Additional information can be added to meet any
local unique needs for capturing the data. Hours and/or cubic yards are summarized at the bottom
of the report and a daily cost is determined. This information is reconciled daily with the
government.
Recordkeeping & Reporting
ORC ES shall submit daily progress and quality control reports to the governing entity for all
activities. Each report would contain, at a minimum, the following information:
o
1) Letterhead with DRC name and contact information
2) Report Date
3) Location of completed work
4) Location of work for next day
41
o
o
5) Daily and cumulative hours for each piece of equipment and crew (Emergency Clearance)
6) List of roads that were cleared (Emergency Clearance)
7) Number of Crews (including number of trucks and loading equipment)
8) Daily and cumulative totals of debris removed, by category
9) Daily and cumulative totals of debris processed, to include methodes) of processing and
disposallocation(s)
10) Daily estimate of hazardous waste debris segregated, and cumulative amount of hazardous
waste placed in the designated holding area
11) Number of hazardous trees and hanging limbs removed.
12) Problems encountered or anticipated
Typically, Daily Reports are co-signed by the governing entity's inspector to verify work
performed. In addition, the governing entity receives an original copy of all load tickets and
receives and verifies for co-signature, a Daily Reconciliation Sheet listing each load ticket, the
truck number, crew number, street, truck volume, percent full, credited volume of debris
removed and the total volume removed for the day. This Daily Reconciliation Sheet is typically
verified by the governing entity and becomes the invoicing document for the Contract.
Preparing and Submitting Federal/State Project Work Sheets
ORC ES can assist the Government entity in completing any and all fonns necessary for
reimbursements from state or federal agencies relating to eligible costs arising out of the disaster
recovery effort. This may include, but is not limited to, the timely completion and submittal of
reimbursement requests, preparation, and submittal of any and all necessary cost substantiations
and preparing replies to any and all agency requests, inquiries or potential obligations, denials or
de-obligations.
Knowledge of CFR 44
Since it's inception in 1989, DRC's senior management personnel have gained a vast knowledge
of the basic policies and procedures of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR 44) as it relates to
Federal Emergency Management Agency's mission. These policies and procedures have been
incorporated into ORC and ORC ES's various corporate Debris Management plans and guides to
ensure compliance with the latest FEMA guidelines.
FEMA Technical Management Training
ORC and/or ORC ES have on staff, or available through its extensive Reservist/Consultant
Personnel Database, qualified personnel who are available to assist any client with Exercises,
Plans Fonnulation, or Training of Government personnel on eligibility issues, reimbursement
procedures, documentation, etc. ORC will provide regular annual or more frequent training and
feedback sessions to the government as a service at no additional cost to the County. Training
sessions are scheduled and led by director of training Jennifer Peacock and will address planning
"""' and reimbursement issues as well as any other concerns of the County. Typically, training
..

sessions also include ORC consultant and reservist personnel who are former FEMA personnel
or who are intimately familiar with FEMA and other government regulations.
DRC Data Center
ORC maintains a fully-staffed, fully operational Data Center at its headquarters year round. The
Data Center is staffed by experienced and professional personnel with extensive knowledge of
recording, reporting, contract, and reimbursement requirements. The Data Center is equipped
with state-of-the-art infonnation technology and is prepared to meet and exceed the reporting
requirements of the government.

4. GEOGRAPHIC AREA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
DRC will maintain current geographic and cartographic for all awarded and reach back regions.
Upon Task Order Notice to Proceed, Operations Management will utilize these resources to
develop a Geographic Area Management Plan to strategically and systematically accomplish
debris collection from the affected area. Depending on the size and nature of the event, affected
regions will first be divided between urban, semi- or suburban, and rural areas. Within each of
these sector types, the affected area will further be subdivided according to geographic
boundaries of major political subdivisions, e.g., counties, cities, towns, etc.
Typical breakdown is as follows:
1. Urban Sector - high density population producing .large amounts of debris and narrow streets
with limited accessORC will mobilize its smaller more versatile crews to work within this
environment. The crews will be made up of 20 to 30 cubic yard hauling vehicles with small-
medium size loaders such as bob cats, self loaders and tele-handlers. Crew labor will be
consistent with company operational plan and GOVERNMENT typical crew specifications.
2. Semi-Urban Sector-medium density population and debris loads with minor access limitations.
ORC will mobilize its typical work force crews that are made up of combination crews such as
50 to 100 CY Self-loading knuckle booms, medium to large loaders and medium to large hauling
vehicles. Crew labor will be consistant with company operational plan and GOVERNMENT
typical crew specifications.
3. Rural Sector- low population density and debris loads with full access for all types of
equipment. DRC will mobilize a similar work force that is consistent with the above semi-urban
sector.
City and county maps will be divided and identified according to districts, sections,
developments, directional quartile partitions, or address blocks. Each individual sector will be
printed for assignment to a specific crew, as well as for the records of the field supervision for
that overall subdivision. Sector Managers/Field supervision will maintain assignment maps in a
binder at area project management location. Finally, a master assignment file will be maintained
with the Operations Manager at the Mobile Command Center or other central project
management location.
Crews will be dispatched by sector management/field supervisors or project managers each day
to specifically target sectors in order meet production rates and to provide an even rate of
clearance for the affected area during each pass/phase. No crew or subcontract crew will be
permitted to have more than two open sectors at any given time. Upon completion of an
assigned sector, crew chiefs will request an inspection by field supervision and/or project
management. ORC Project Management will coordinate an inspection with the
GOVERNMENT before closing a sector assignment. Any rework assignments must be
complete before the issuance of an assignment for another sector.
44
o
o
w
ORC dispatchers are responsible for monitoring and recording of the number, type, and location
of all crews in an assigned area. Following each work period, the dispatcher will report crew
location, numbers, and types to field and project management. Crews and subcontract crews will
be prohibited from collecting debris from other than assigned sectors. GPS, AOMS, and/or othe
location reports will be required of all loads. GOVERNMENT will be provided with sector and
crew assignment and management plans daily.
Haul destinations and distances for loads for each sector in most cases will be predetem1ined by
sector location cross referenced with available debris staging or disposal locations. Haul
distance category will be assigned in advance in most cases (e.g., 0-15 mi., 15-30 mi., etc.) and
confirmed using GPS and/or AOMS data and/or by an inspector.

DEBRIS ELIGIBILITY
One of the key elements of debris operation quality control centers on debris eligibility. Debris
Eligibility is defined as debris which has been deemed eligible by a GOVERNMENT directive
usually based on FEMA's Guidelines dictated in the Stafford Act.
In most cases this refers to debris that was generated as a result of a specific disaster event such
as hurricane. All other debris and waste not generated by this specific event in most cases is in-
eligible.
DRC will provide expert quality control in area of eligibility to ensure that all our crews have
specific guidelines that are consistent across the entire project on what debris is actually eligible
under a specific Debris Mission. DRC will provide daily inspection of debris collection crews to
monitor the debris and its eligibility. All debris must have been placed on the Right of Way
(ROW) for collection or designated by an address in a Right of Entry (ROE) removal program to
meet most eligibility criteria under FEMA Funded Projects.
Any crew that is found operating outside the assigned work zone, off the ROW or specific ROE
will be terminated and reported to GOVERNMENT. DRC will achieve this level of quality
control of debris eligibility by having QC managers in the field, at TDSRSs, and random spot
checks by Area and Sector Managers. Dissemination of the proper instructions to crews is
critical to successful control over eligibility; DRC will provide this information by distribution of
information via central points such as the TDSRSs and staging areas.
PROTECTION OF INFRASTRUCTURE
The protection of infrastructure is critical to a recovery operation. Examples of infrastructure
items that are vulnerable during a debris operation are as follows:
I. Road, Street & Highway wearing surfaces and ROW's
2. Street and Traffic Signs
3. Traffic Signals and Lights
4. Power lines and Poles
5. Phone lines
6. Cable Lines
7. Sewer, Water and Gas Utilities
8. Individual Property Items
61
o
"
IQ
It is essential to provide oversight of these items by instruction and monitoring by our quality
control staff. All crew supervisors are required to report directly to our sector QC mangers on all
damage issues to infrastructure.
Protection of Infrastructure is also a element vital to the overall health and safety of our crews
and citizens. Trucks striking power lines and other utilities can cause serious injury and even
death from careless activities during recovery.
For example, DRC crew leaders are instructed to ensure that each and every load is trimmed and
inside the body of the hauling unit; this nearly eliminates the possibility of overhanging debris
that can cause a power line break and create an electrical hazard.
DRC operates a damage hotline on all projects. There will be a complaint manger assigned to
each specific mission that is responsible for handling all infrastructure damage and repair. This
program will be announced in the affected area by various means of pubic service
announcements (PSA's) detailing our (800) number and response team.
The protection of infrastructure begins with the quality control over the entire mechanical
operations of the recovery and is completed by the quick, effective response and repair. DRC
will investigate all damages and complaints immediately and make resolutions within 24 hours.
Critical items will be mitigated on the spot.
PROPER LOADING AND UNLOADING OF TRUCKS
Proper Loading and Unloading of Trucks
The quality and safety standards of the loading and unloading functions during a recovery
operation are handled by management of DRC and supplemented by primary subcontractor
management.
Loading
Loading of debris from ROWand ROE's can be potentially dangerous, inefficient and In-
eligible. Items of concern are:
I. Segregation of Waste
2. Bunching of debris
3. Removal methods and equipment
4. Safe Loading of debris
5. Traffic Control
6. Eligibility Monitoring
7. Truck ticketing - documentation
8. Loading residuals at debris site for final disposal
62
o
c
Q
DRC will direct all loading operations through its project managers, quality control managers,
supervisors and primary subcontractor supervisors. Infonnation and examples will be distributed
to all crew loading operations.
Copies of the Manuel on Unifonn Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) will be available for all
DRC Loading crews at our local office or command center. Haul out loading will be specifically
addressed for quality control in the site specific QC and Safety plan once the site is selected.
Unloading of Trucks
Unloading of various debris at the temporary debris storage site (TDSRS) and final disposals
area shall be monitored for quality control through DRC Dumps site managers and Dump site
QC managers.
Items of concern are as follows:
1. Waste pile management (HHW, C&D, Vegetative)
2. Proper construction and maintenance of containment areas
3. Site Safety
4. Site ingress and egress
5. Traffic flow control
6. Reduction management unloading of trucks
7. Inspection Tower
The inspection towers at the unloading sites are key to quality control of the unloading
operation. All trucks are inspected for loads coming into the site and monitored for empty trucks
leaving the dump site. This monitoring activity helps ensure the validity, safety and quality of
this operation. The tower shall be constructed in accordance with GOVERNMENT guidelines
and positioned in such a manor to allow trucks to safely exist the roadway and line up for load
verification. The tower shall be positioned at a minimum 300' from the entry point in any site.
It is key to quality control at any unloading site to mange trucks entering, waiting and exiting the
site. This will ensure a safe site and help maintain a high level of production along with
reducing environmental risks associated with unloading of debris. Quality control will be
achieved through on site management, daily meetings, specific plans and the implementation of
these plans.
TRACKING OF HOURLY RATE TASKS
DRC has in place the staff and procedures to accurately and efficiently handle the tracking of
hourly rate task and documentation. The quality control of such documents begins in the field.
The data will be collected with direct supervision from DRC; all trucks and equipment will be
monitored while any work is taken place.
63
o
"
,.-
.,.
-
This information will be manually collected on hourly log sheets or by individual tickets for each
piece of equipment, truck or personnel. The log sheets or tickets will be solely in the possession
of a DRC supervisor at all times. At the end of each day, the DRC supervisor will review the log
sheets with the GOVERNMENT inspector and check for complete accuracy of the information.
Both the DRC supervisor and the GOVERNMENT inspector will sign the daily report and each
party will retain a copy of the report. Any changes to the infonnation will be corrected on a
daily basis.
Once the daily logs are collected and signed, they will be forwarded to DRC's corporate office to
be compiled in to summary sheets for preparation of invoicing. DRC operates a full time date
center at its head quarters in Mobile, AL; it is staffed 7 days per week! 24 hrs per day during any
large scale event. The summary of the daily log sheets and all back up documentation will then
be forwarded back to DRC's project manager on location. DRC will present this information to
GOVERNMENT for the purpose ofreconciling all infonnation and certifying the accuracy. Any
changes would be made at this time an the documentation would then be used in the preparation
of the official invoice to the Government. This is our check and balances system for
documentation of hourly rate task in a condensed version.
This level of quality control over documentation virtually eliminates potential mistakes, errors
and inefficiencies. DRC's project manager and quality control manager along with the QC
sector managers will perform routine and surprise checks over our crew supervisors and data
collectors. These inspections will serve as the quality control for the potential fraud and
manipulation of field data.
At any point the QC managers or supervisors are alerted to potential quality control issues with
tracking of documentation, they are immediately required to notify the project manager who will
then report directly to the COR.
PRIV A TE PROPERTY DEBRIS REMOVAL
When requested by the GOVERNMENT, DRC will initiate a Private Property Debris Removal
Program. DRC and its subcontractors have initiated and managed Right of Entry (ROE)
programs to remove debris on private property and/or demolish private structures that present a
public safety hazard. R.O. E. programs may be managed as follows:
RIGHT OF ENTRY (R.O.E.) PROGRAM
A. COMMENCEMENT OF R.O.E. PROGRAM

receives and verifies for co-signature, a Daily Reconciliation Sheet listing each load ticket, the
truck number, crew number, street, truck volume, percent full, credited volume of debris
removed and the total volume removed for the day. This Daily Reconciliation Sheet is typically
verified by the governing entity and becomes the invoicing document for the Contract.
7. RECYCLING PLAN
Ve2etative Debris: Vegetative debris such as trees, stumps, brush, and leaf and yard waste make
up the largest portion of the debris produced during tornadoes, hurricanes, and other natural
disasters. Vegetative debris can be collected, stockpiled, and processed to the specifications of a
mulch or boiler fuel product. Although some local governments have purchased wood processing
equipment, others find it more cost effective to contract out the services.
68
o
A22re2ates: Large amounts of aggregate debris such as asphalt pavement and concrete may
result from the destruction of roadways during disasters. These materials can be collected,
stockpiled, and processed to the specifications for road base aggregate or solid fill material.
Construction and Demolition Debris: Another large component of disaster debris is the
construction and demolition (C&D) material that results from the destruction of homes,
commercial and non-commercial buildings, and other structures. The materials produced from
these sources may include wood, aggregates, metals, gypsum, plastics, and other miscellaneous
components. These materials can be managed by using existing recycling facilities, and
supplemented by establishing temporary C&D processing sites in areas where adequate recycling
infrastructure does not exist.
White Goods and E-waste: Televisions, computer monitors, DVD players, radios and cell
phones. Electronics contain a hodgepodge of metals and materials that can be dangerous, given
the large numbers that are likely to be thrown out in a hurricane's aftermath. Older electronics
can contain lead, chromium, cadmium, mercury, nickel and zinc, all toxic to humans. However a
number of materials like metals and plastics in electronics can be recycled, reducing pollution
while saving energy and resources. Freon and metals recovered from white goods are
thoroughly recyclable and marketable. Revenue generated from the recycle of such wastes is
typically returned to government entity following cost.
Other innovative recycling strategies DRC will explore depending on the setting and scope of an
event:
(>
Development of crib-walls using large woody debris: Tree limbs that are currently being ground-
up or are intended for incineration may instead be fashioned into crib-walls for wetlands
protection and restoration. Crib-walls may also be fashioned without lumber by interlocking and
binding limbs into non-wildlife trapping structures that resist erosion, precipitate sedimentation,
and otherwise promote the restoration of the regions protective coastal fringe.
Composting to produce valuable fines and to decontaminated materials: Wood chips,
contaminated sediments, and other organic debris may be blended into windrows for thern1al
composting, such as is used to recycle green waste in many cities, and to decontaminate
hydrocarbon-affected soils in remedial actions. Windrow turners, such as pictured at right, mix
and oxygenate the organic materials. Other, more-compact composting methods are also
available using containerized systems The end result is humus, which may be used for wetlands
restoration, soil building, and mulch.
Segregation of bricks and aggregate for low-grade structural uses: Solid materials such as brick,
fractured brick, cinder block, and aggregate may be segregated from the waste stream and used
for structural applications such as erosion control, diversion features, landscape elements, and
light-duty pavements.
Recvcling of glass and ceramics into durable fines: Bottles, windows, and wall elements may be
ground into sand-like fines for structural applications as described above, and also for wetlands
restoration and beach renewal.
o
69
~
C)
Q
Recovery of copper and other metals: Copper wire and other metals may be separated and
profitably recycled into new wires, signs, and light-duty structures, as was done by Florida
Power and Light after Hurricane Andrew.
Production of biofuels for distributed use: The organic fraction of the debris stream may be
pulverized and fashioned into high-BTU pellets, or anaerobically digested into natural gas. The
production and sale of refuse-derived energy is economically rewarded because renewable
energy credits may be sold along with the energy produced. While this may involve an out-of-
state company with significant experience in this area, the Subcommittee is mindful that a local
project developer should remain involved.
In response to past events and contracts, such as the removal of vehicles from Southeaster
Louisiana following Hurricane Katrina or the removal ice storm. Some examples of recycling
resources that DRC has used in recent events and contracts include:

APPROACH TO SUBCONTRACTING
DRC ES has implemented an aggressive and nationally recognized outreach program entitled the, "DRC ES
LOCAL SUBCONTRACTOR RESOURCE PROGRAM"
DRC ES reaches out to local, small, minority and women owned (SMWB'S) companies with a variety of tools.
DRC ES representatives are dedicated to working closely with local Minority and Women Business Enterprise's
(M/WBE) small business liaison to contact companies that are approved and certified by M/WBE as small,
disadvantaged, minority, veteran and women owned businesses. Immediate contact will be made with the
Minority and Women Business Enterprise office to schedule an informational workshop for potential vendors
and businesses. These sessions provide "hands on" technical assistance to companies ranging from individuals
owning dump trucks and loading equipment to office supply companies and small printers wishing to provide
goods and services. DRC ES is committed to seeing that local companies are made aware of all potential
contracting and partnership opportunities.
In addition, because of their close connection to the federal dollars provided by FEMA, The Congressional
~ Delegation will be contacted and their staffs briefed on the program for their constituent companies.
Lastly, an aggressive direct mail program can be conducted to target companies, and minority business
organizations that are listed with the Office of Minority and Women Business Enterprise. This mailer can
provide information as well as an 800 number for interested individuals and companies with bi-lingual
assistance available when necessary.
The development and implementation of this program is coordinated by Tom B. Combs. Mr. Combs, Director
of Governmental Relations, has over 20 years experience in SMWB development. Having served as founder
and Executive Director of The Bid Resource Center that was the nation's second and largest non-profit assisting
SMWB'S in securing government contacts. From there he went on to serve as Mayor Pro Tem and
Congressional Chief of Staff and Director of the John Gray Institute developing SMWB programs across the
state of Texas and the nation.
DRC ES "LOCAL SUBCONTRACTOR RESOURCE PROGRAM" not only drastically improves small and
minority business participation, but also shows the commitment of DRC ES to ensuring that the entire
community has the opportunity to participate. The DRC ES technical assistance workshops not only assist
companies with identifying potential contract opportunities, but also assist those interested with "teaming".
This process matches MBE's/WBE's with others so it strengthens there competitive position and package of
goods and services offered. "Teaming" can greatly increase MBE/WBE participation because of the "strength
in numbers" concept.
~ DRC ES is committed to ensuring that any emergency response business activity is shared by the entire
community. Our innovative programs ensure that minority participation is not just a goal but a reality.

KEY PERSONNEL
Key personnel of DRC Emergency Services, LLC (DRC ES) and the DRC family of
affiliated and associated companies, subcontractors, contract reservists and associate
personnel have been involved in hurricane emergency responses for many years, since as
early as 1961. For the past 18 years, this team has responded to major natural or man-
made disasters occurring within the continental United States and its territories, in
theatres of U.S.-led troop operations, and in Central America. These personnel are
trained, motivated and available for immediate deployment for emergency response.
Many are N .LM.S-certified and/or have specialized training in safety and asbestos
management and are equipped with utility vehicles, digital, handheld, multi-state, two-
way radios, cellular communications, and handheld computers. Under normal
circumstances each will have the experience and/or training to respond immediately to
disasters and is typically provided with a DRC ES supervisor handbook including
required reports and forms for successful disaster response and management thereof.
Professional Recognition
o
DRC ES and its affiliates are leaders in the field of disaster management and emergency
recovery. Many DRC ES and affiliate employees, subcontractors, associates, and contract
reservist personnel have specialized training for emergency management and/or have
attended multiple industry seminars and conferences. DRC ES, its subcontractors, and/or
personnel as described above are or have been members of many professional
organizations including NEMA, APW A, SW ANA and the Society of American Military
Engineers. DRC and/or its' affiliates, associates and/or subcontractors are licensed
General Contractors in several states. DRC ES is familiar with USACE, FEMA, and
FHW A rules and regulations, the Stafford Act, and 44CFR as they pertain to emergency
response, recovery and reimbursement.
Commitment to Ethics: Prevention of Fraud, Waste and Abuse
The senior management and key personnel of the DRC family of companies is committed
to the highest standard of ethical conduce. DRC ES through its ethics program has a zero
tolerance policy and aggressively investigates and attempts to rectify any suspected
instances of fraud, waste and/or abuse. DRC ES is led by a former F.B.L special agent
and is committed to criminal prosecution of culprits in fraud and to arranging for
complete and immediate refunds of any ill-gotten gains.
o
DRC ES will assign, as required, fonner FBI, DEA, and/or FEMA investigators and/or
auditors to attempt to ensure against and reduce instances of fraud, waste and abuse. Our
Project Managers, Supervisors, and Foremen are typically trained in fraud reduction and
(>
detection and report any suspected instances thereof to Project Managers, to assigned
internal auditors and/or to counsel.
DRC ES has also established a very detailed ethics program with procedures to detect
some of the obvious and easier ways that fraud occasionally occurs. For instance,
typically, no DRC ES or subcontractor employees are allowed to participate in the
measurement of trucks; this is entrusted to local government, USACE, state EMA and/or
FEMA officials. DRC ES utilizes a detailed measurement documentation program to
ensure the integrity of the haul and vehicle measurements and the safety and integrity of
the vehicles and their drivers.
DRC ES has a detailed and specific program of ticketing and reconciliation verification
that, we believe, meets or exceeds the USACE and FEMA requirements and has
instituted additional programs and procedures to ensure to protect to the greatest possible
extent against fraud, waste, and/or abuse.
