When Disaster Strikes – Pre-declaration
Examples of possible Cat B expenses:
…people are working
…count actions to prevent further damages to a structure …expenses to protect people or property -- barricades,
temporary repairs/grading of a roadway, clearing roadways to the rights-of- way for emergency traffic, and emergency “temporary” repairs to doors, windows, roofs, etc.
BOTTOM LINE: If you did, will do or are doing, “something” because of the event, count it! Project the work that will be required!
When Disaster Strikes – Pre-Declaration
Stay in Communication/Contact
• As disaster threatens and periodically throughout the disaster e-mail potential applicants w/tips and lessons learned.
