Daughter lives near Fort Smith Ark where there has been really terrible flooding.
She's fine because she lives on a mountain.
She is hearing around her that most people didn't have any insurance at all on the homes much less flood insurance.
People are hearing that FEMA is only giving folks $6000.00 ! I am not sure how accurate that is but that is what is being heard.
The people in charge are just walking down the street condemning house
after house. Her and her husband has been recommended on some list to
assist with the clean up with their machinery, a CAT 305E with a thumb
excavator. She said most of the property will just have the lot they are
sitting on to sell in hopes of getting some money back. Some of these
homes are large super expensive river front homes and there will be no
way to rebuild. Personally these floods may have been a 500 or 1000 year
flood but I wouldn't want to rebuild there for sure. It happened once
and sure to happen again in the future.
I can't imagine how you would bid a clean up like that. You have X
amount of hours in the project then you have who can tell how many dump
truck loads to fill and dispose of wherever that may be designated to
be at.
I am sure there are probably health hazards associated with being
around all the mold and building material floating around in the air. He
has a cab to work in if they get a job there but for sure needs some
masks.
