Disaster Debris Monitoring and Management

EF-5 TORNADO | FEMA DR-1971

Pratt City, a sizeable subdivision of Birmingham, Alabama, was impacted by straight-line winds and a devastating EF-5 tornado that destroyed a significant portion of the community on April 27, 2011. The City of Birmingham requested Rostan provide disaster debris removal monitoring services to assist with the recovery process.

Rostan provided damage assessments and developed a database to allow efficient access to information related to the current status of the individual properties.

In addition to monitoring Right-of-Way debris removal operations, Rostan provided Private Property Debris Removal and Demolition monitoring services and assisted the City with collection, verification and validation of applicable Rights-of-Entry and Hold-Harmless agreements.
