Arlene Debris

[Kurt]

From TDC:

Debris removal from Tropical Arlene is underway and will continue over
the next 2-3 weeks. Debris pick-up will stop on weekends and during the
extended Fourth of July weekend (July 1-4).

The TDC staff has consolidated debris to accelerate the removal process.
The contractor attempted to begin removal in the west end of the County
on Monday, but due to the large crowds the crew was forced to move to
the east end for the safety of our visitors. Removal is now underway and
will continue west. The removal crew will be using heavy off road
equipment including dump trucks and front end loaders to clean the
beaches as quickly as possible.

Yeah, they started with the removal of my fishing stuff last week. :laughing1

Not funny about your theft, but glad you can enjoy the moment!

I think that is how the FloraBama was built. Something drifts up on the beach, and they just nail it to the side of the building. Whatever works!

Hey, is the Florabama back??? Or did Ivan wash it away for good --

Wow, I didn't realize that Arlene did that much damage in the area. I also noticed all the crap on the beach this past weekend. Hopefully they get it out of there soon, it's starting to look like some of our local trailer parks.

Re: Debris

Not that I have the time, but I thought it would be cool to drive a trailer over and pick up all the wood debris, bring it home and use it to build recycled yard furniture. I could name each collection after the storm that brought it in.[/QUOTE]

Amazing. Does the wood legally belong to anyone? I can't believe more people haven't done this. Those 2 x 6 s are expensive!! Twenty-five of them are worth a small fortune.

Good question. If we could identify the owners, maybe we could make them, or their insurance company, come clean their poop.

If you personal property after a storm it's like other lost and found. You report it to the SO and if no one claims it after a certain amount of time it's yours.

Wood would be hard to identify and I don't think anyone cares.

Good point - maybe WaterColor and Seaside should be cleaning up Grayton Beach State Park.
