The Wave of the Future
Dear Municipal Official
As you are all aware, there has been very serious flooding in Winnebago County. We appreciate the time that you have
taken to help us with gathering information so that we can work together to help those affected. FEMA is here today
looking at damages to homes and businesses for Individual Assistance (IA) programs and we are also continuing work on
gathering updated information for the aid to government (Public Assistance - PA) programs. Over the weekend, many of
you got calls from this office. We need you to continue sending in Uniform Disaster Situation Reports (UDSR) that focus
on getting good, solid numbers from your municipality for expenses and losses to government. Examples include.
• Time for public works, police, fire, water /sewer, parks and other government staff working on the disaster. There
are specific rules regarding reimbursable expenses so if you have a question about'how to do the work, please
make sure to call so we can offer you guidance on how to maximize your reimbursement potential.
• Emergency contracts (electricians, equipment, engineers, etc.) must be billed separately from any other, non -
disaster work that is being done by the contractor.. Also, if the work is going to be long -term or a permanent
repair that will be done in the future (i.e., non - emergency work), please also give us a call for advice on how to
structure hired work to maximize your reimbursement potential.
• Equipment (specify kind and type), date /hours worked and disaster work done.
• Expendable supplies (fuel, food, etc.) for work that supported the disaster.
• Damage to infrastructure (bridges, roads, sidewalks, sanitary sewer, water treatment, storm sewer, culverts)
government buildings (fire /police stations, libraries, town halls) and park and recreational areas (snowmobile /ATV
trails; piers /docks; park equipment, mulch, sand, etc.)
• Debris removal
Also during the weekend, we discussed the offer that is attached to this fax. As you can see, the county Is offering to
help the municipalities by creating an 'umbrella' under which the administration costs of debris removal are covered by
the county and that we ensure all competitive, environmental and other rules /regulations by FEMA are accounted for in
our procedures. Other fees (generally, the same fees that you would normally pay for tipping, etc.) would be billed.based
on whether we got the PA declaration or not (100% if we do not, 12.5% if we do). If you do not need or enact the
provisions in the agreement, there is no cost to you and you can leave the agreement with 2 dayswritten notice. PLEASE
read the agreement - all of the particulars are in there and are more detailed (and therefore supersede) what is written in
this cover letter If your municipality chooses to sign -on, please sign the sign -in page (who has to sign is based on your , A,
local ordinances) and fax it back ASAP to the Winnebago County Emergency Management Office at 920- 303 -3175. 8�—�
Also, we are interested in getting any ideas for mitigation that you have. If you have an area that is liable to get damage
in the future and /or has been damaged in the past, it may be eligible for mitigation measures (with the assistance: of
state and federal dollars) to make it more disaster resistant as part of the hoped -for disaster declaration. The important
part of this is to not make any permanent repairs right now and to call us ASAP so we can discuss ideas. Potential
projects might include erosion control measures, culvert re- sizing, road work, etc.
It is important to remember that we do not have any disaster declaration at this point. If we get help, we are likely to
get help to individuals /business first. PA will be a separate damage assessment (planned for late this week or more
likely, next week). If we get that declaration, then project workers will come to review your work, your paperwork, etc.
and to begin to make grants available. Even though we do not have a declaration yet, you must follow FEMA rules now if
you want the potential future project to be eligible for aid if we get the declaration. Please feel free to call us if you have
any questions at 920- 236 -7460. Thank you.
