Texas City (Texas) Independent School District | 2017 Hurricane Harvey Recovery | FEMA-DR-4332
In August 2017, Texas sustained hurricane-force winds and heavy rains for a record number of days due to Hurricane Harvey. The Superintendent engaged our team to monitor the remediation contractor hired to facilitate the emergency protective measures required for stabilization of the three LaMarque schools flooded during the Hurricane impacts.
DALCS provided expert guidance to navigate the FEMA Public Assistance (PA) program and the FEMA 404 Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP). Our team also provided grant accounting and administrative support for disaster grants pursuits and reimbursement. This project required a collaboration with the TCISD Public Adjuster to ensure that FEMA and Insurance claims were reconciled, and appropriate funding was obtained for eligible costs. Services to the schools included FEMA programs support, insurance, funding strategy, environmental remediation monitoring, reimbursement support, federal compliance, appeals, audits, and closeouts.
