In case you wanna know why debris removal is not as fast as you think it should be.
Red Tape
There are pre-proved contractors who follow storms. That might be okay for smalller incidents, but in these extra-ordinary times this red tape is a problem.
When Biden says he is doing everything possible, one more thing would be to waive some of these requirements. I have not seen that he has issued any waivers. Local governments should be able to use and pay for any one who has a front end loader and a dump truck.
Biden through a few executive orders has imposed a number of DEI requirements on federal agencies, and federal contractors. I don’t know if those requirements will affect federal reimbursements to local contracted debris removal services. That could be another problem.
