EMERGENCY WORK PLAN
AUGUST 2020
Mississippi Emergency Work Plan The purpose of this plan is to make effective help quickly available to any system in emergency need of help because of natural or man-made disasters. This book is to provide a standard operating procedure for associations seeking assistance from other associations, as recommended by the Safety and Loss Control Committee, and approved by Statewide Board of Directors, and to provide other information which may be helpful in time of need. The emergency work plan applies to Mississippi electric power associations. Agreements between contractors and individual systems should be arrived at by negotiations. This agreement supercedes any state or federal laws pertaining to contracting services.

Procedure for Securing Help When Disaster Strikes 1. Survey the extent of damage and determine as nearly as possible the outside personnel and equipment needed. 2. Consult this manual for information on other systems, their manpower, equipment, tools, telephone number or ham radio connections and probable ability to help you. 3. Alert the statewide office (Ridgeland, 601-605-8600), which will keep a dispatcher on duty around the clock throughout such emergency as it may develop.This dispatcher will enlist, route, move and release help on the basis of information secured from affected managers by telephone, Highway Patrol, radio ham, messenger or other means. 4. When calling for help, give the following information:
A. Number and type of trucks needed. B. Other equipment and tools needed. C. Personnel and classification needed. D. Materials needed. E. Weather and road conditions F. Where the crews should report, and to whom. G. How to contact your association. H. Name of person to receive this information. I. Telephone numbers other than normal usage. 5. To facilitate giving of above information over substandard communications media, or when the message must be relayed through persons unfamiliar with the terms used, use of the Form For Requesting Assistance by managers is requested. Suggested form follows. 6. In event of emergencies striking Mississippi and/or nearby states, EPAs of Mississippi will coordinate requests for assistance from Mississippi systems directly with those statewides affected.

State System Plan of Action
He will immediately reduce this information to writing. The person receiving the original message will start immediate action to enlist appropriate help and get it to the desired place with the equipment and materials needed.
The person at statewide receiving any call for help will attempt to learn:
All calls and assignments will be logged in such manner that relief dispatchers can immediately determine what has been done.
1. The nature of the emergency and its apparent severity:
Should the need develop, statewide will act as messengers, maintaining contact between dispatcher and distressed systems. The dispatcher must always be kept informed as well as possible, as to who is where and what is needed, when. Too, he should know how the visiting crews are fairing, what they need and, as soon as possible, about how much longer it appears they will be needed. It is important this information be relayed to the home base currently as changes may occur.
2. What has been done; 3. Who has already been contacted; 4. What help the system needs; 5. Where he wants help to report, and to whom; 6. What equipment and materials are needed first;
NOTE: The statewide will keep on file an up-to-date list of qualified contractors, active radio amateurs and other possible sources of assistance for possible use in emergency situations.
7. A rough guess as to how long help may be needed; 8. What means of communication seems likely to serve best.
Uniform Method of Reimbursement

Upon arrival at a distressed system, all charges will be made on an hourly basis (labor and vehicle). When possible, distressed system managers should inform assisting crews as to when the work day begins and ends. 2. Actual living expenses of men incurred by the assisting association are to be invoiced in the actual amount. Food and sleeping accommodations should be a top priority and where feasible, secured by the distressed system.
* 3 HOURS PER DAY MINIMUM
3. The distressed system will be responsible for all fuel used, supplied or purchased. Rates charged on vehicles and equipment will be on an hourly basis. Charges will apply for all hours used, beginning when a system leaves their home location to go to a distressed system.

INFORMING YOUR MEMBERS
Unopened food freezers can maintain stored frozen foods safely from 36 to 48 hours depending upon the amount of food stored, capacity of the freezer and the normal temperature of operation of the freezer. Sources of dry ice, quantities available and prices will be supplied by your statewide if requested. During prolonged outages, dry ice can save thousands of pounds of stored food in a disaster area. Power suppliers can supply a real service during disasters by knowing where dry ice can be secured and even making arrangements in advance for it to be sent to a central location,whereby local radio stations can inform people of its availability. Experience during Hurricane Katrina points out the necessity of assigning some member of your staff now who will handle member relations during times of disaster. It is important that he make arrangements with radio stations to keep them informed of your system’s plan for re-establishing service. When telephone services are available, a regular schedule should be set up with a direct circuit from the co-op office to the radio station which will enable the manager to maintain contact with members. There are many cases where members are iso-
lated due to road conditions, and they should be warned about energized lines which are down. They should be encouraged to notify the co-op office when they notice broken lines, poles down, etc. They should be informed how your method of re-establishing service is progressing. Members cannot be expected to know when service to your substation has caused their outage. By keeping them thoroughly informed, you will be performing a vital member service and one which can pay handsome dividends for years to come. In every association area, there are dairies, hatcheries, etc. which must have electric service; certainly during part of the outage, therefore, it is recommended that a survey be made to determine the availability of portable generators of 5kwh and above. For example: In certain portions of Mississippi, the National Guard has available portable generators for providing emergency service of this nature. In emergencies, these units are moved from diary to dairy to provide power for milking. Continuous power is necessary for hospitals or in houses where someone is seriously ill. These portable generators, therefore, are most important.

Geographic and Power System Information For Emergency Events Certain geographic and power system information needs to be shared to allow outside assistance the knowledge of where service points are located. Within this geographical information three key data points need to be shared which are the unique meter number, map number, and the service address (911 address). The meter number is a serial number for the meter that is assigned to each meter and unique to each member. This number is a searchable number, so if the hosting cooperative provides a meter number as a reference, the assisting company can navigate to this location. The same goes for the map number. The meter serial number and map location number are fundamental pieces of all cooperatives geographic data. The service address is the geographic data used by 911 emergency firstresponders. It is commonly used for directions by anyone using a cell phone. The service address should be included to allow assisting personnel access to information to relay to a 911 operator in the event of an electrical contact requiring emergency personnel. Other information needed for power restoration includes details on the electrical network including substations, primary lines, secondary lines, equipment, etc. Information which is not shared is a member’s name and any sensitive information associated with a member. A mailing address is not included unless it is the same as the 911 service address. However, there is no name associated with an address. The geographic and power system information is to be electronically stored by each cooperative in a secure location. This information is to only be accessed and utilized during a mutual assistance event. This allows ECM the ability to coordinate access of the hosting cooperative’s geographical information to the assisting cooperative during early stages of an event. Only the assisting cooperative shall be privy to the hosting cooperative’s information, and this information is to only be utilized during the mutual assistance event. This information shall follow the standard symbology.

Operating Procedures When a Major Disaster Strikes
F. Inform them as to the authorized persons who will be in charge of operations and dispatching. G. Secure agreement from them that minimum safety practices are understood and will be complied with.
1. Each system will prepare and have ready its plan and organization setup for handling a major disaster on its system. This plan shall consist of complete details for handling the work assignments and arrangements.
H. Make work assignments and make sure they are understood.
2. Extra help reporting to affected systems. Crews which have been hit by a major disaster will, if they are on the same radio frequency as the affected system, report in to the affected system’s office as soon as they are within good communication range for orders from the person in charge of directing operations. Crews not on the same radio frequency as the affected system will report directly to the person in charge of operations at the affected system’s headquarters.
I. Maps must be kept up-to-date and copies available in order to expedite work assignments. J. It must be understood by all concerned that as soon as emergency repairs have been made and service restored to all members on the affected system, the help, which has been called in, will be released to return to their home system.
3. Any crews called in to help a system affected by a major disaster will be fully informed of the following matters before they are given their assignment of work:
Before releasing these crews, however, check with Electric Cooperatives of Mississippi to determine whether they are needed for emergency work elsewhere. ECM then will clear with their home system and notify you as to instructions for them. ECM should be notified an hour or two before you plan to release them, if possible.
A. Where food and lodging is available. B. Where they are to get gasoline, oil and equipment serviced; system’s policy relative to the landing of invoices in connection with such service.
4. Only one person shall be authorized to direct operations during emergency work. All orders and dispatching shall be done by this authorized person. When authorized person is relieved by another person who is qualified to direct operations, and if outside crews have not been informed that he will be relieved by such person, they will be so notified at the time the relief man takes over.
C. Length of time they will be expected to work continuously and length of rest period. D. Reach an understanding relative to handling expenses. E. Check on proper tools and materials for work assigned to them.
Planning for a Disaster on a Local System
In the interest of reducing outage time, improving member relations and promoting public relations on your system, the following operational procedure, based on experience of systems who have experienced major system damages from sleet storms, tornados, hurricanes and other disasters is submitted for your information and guide.
to be used for planning outages. 2. Air break switches at substations to be listed, and repair parts kept on hand at all times. 3. If there is a complete substation burn-out, transfer load to other substations. On all transfer of loads, if at all possible, the consulting engineer should be contacted and his advice followed.
1. Planned outage reports to be given to telephone operator who is to notify telephone exchanges in the area that lines will be out. A form of a different color
4. Power supplier to be notified if load is switched

from one substation to another, in case of substation failure.
E. Have small crew to restore individual service and handle special hazards.
5. For trucks and equipment, make prior arrangements for 24-hour service for gasoline, repair service and parts.
F. Assign local man with outside crew where possible. 8. Member and public relations; dry ice program.
6. Eating facilities: arrangements with local restaurants for hot meals around the clock.
9. Identification cards, available through ECM.
7. Restoring service: A. Establish priorities for establishments affecting community health and safety. B. Assign crews to a definite area. C. Avoid pressure from individuals. D. Concentrate on feeder circuits.
A local plan, well organized in advance, will facilitate the restoration of power and avoid confusion in the event of a disaster on your system.
Practical suggestions for managers during emergency situations
When disaster strikes your system, you will do what seems best to you, and the rest of us will help as you think best. But here are some observations growing out of our experience.
6. If you are sending crews to help a neighbor, be sure to give your head man enough money to make your men feel secure. 7. One of the big mistakes sometimes made is to yield to pressure from individuals for special attention. Little progress can be made in cleaning up major damage when crews are required to run from one end of the system to the other trying to satisfy individuals who demand special attention without justification.
1. There is a limit to the length of time men can work effectively and safely without rest in bed. 2. Around-the-clock work, in shifts, is logical in a situation expected to be cleared up within two or three days, but if it looks like a longer pull, daylight-to-dark probably will pay better for all concerned.
8. Experience has proven the wisdom of giving a crew responsibility for work on a given feeder and letting them work it out to the end or to be a sectionalizing point, then coming back and restoring service on single phase lines or taps off the feeder.
3. Truck and equipment service may be a problem. Filling stations may be unable to pump gasoline. Maybe you will need to make arrangements with gasoline and oil distributors to make tank truck deliveries direct to your vehicles at convenient locations.
9. Some associations feel that it is good to have one or more two-man crews for dispatching to locations where special hazards may exist or where especially critical loads should be given special attention. When not on such work, they can be used to repair individual services.
4. Mechanics should be kept on stand-by duty to service and repair trucks. Garages at convenient locations should be kept open, with repair parts available. 5. Arrange with certain restaurants to stay open as may be necessary during emergency work. Your men may need hot food at odd hours. Chances are you will lose fewer meals to “free loaders” if each foreman or crew chief pays for the meals eaten by his men.
10. From a member relations and public relations standpoint, it is important that every means of communication be used to keep members of the general public informed as to what is being done to repair damage and restore service. A specific person should be designated this responsibility.

AUGUST 2020
11. In view of the fact that areas hit by a major storm may be isolated by the police and none but authorized persons admitted, it is recommended that each system issue to its authorized personnel means of identification which will be provided by statewide. This identification will have the further value of identifying authorized persons to filling stations, restaurants, etc.
crews and provide assistance and liaison with the system being aided.
12. We recommend that each system have a written emergency plan for their system’s use. Attached is a sample form which to start in developing such a plan.
17. An information sheet should be filled out and carried by visiting crews and given to the person in charge at the distressed system.
13. We recommend that crews be rotated periodically when working in extreme emergency conditions over an extended period of time.
18. In order to cut down on transportation and travel time, we recommend that where practical, lunches be served to visiting crews in the field.
14. The system requesting help should see that housing is provided for the visiting crews.
19. We recommend that an engineer or operations supervisor come with the visiting crew. In this way a given feeder or substation can be more effectively worked.
16. We recommend that systems responding to a call for help be given full responsibility of work in a designated area rather than moving from outage point to outage point.
15. Each system responding to a call for help should provide a person to coordinate the activities of their
Check List for Requesting Assistance 1. Nature of disaster. 2. Weather and road conditions. 3. What has been done prior to calling. 4. Who has already been contacted. 5. What type help the distressed manager feels he will need. 6. To where and to whom he wants help to report. 7. What equipment and materials are needed first. 8. An estimate on how long the help may be needed. 9. Whether help is needed to set up charge accounts for equipment service, restaurants, motels, etc. 10. Whether additional petty cash is needed. 11. Secure a work order number for all charges.
12. Records as to when first call was received and when service was restored. 13. A method to compile information for customer hour outage. 14. What means of communication would be most beneficial due to radio system being used for dispatch or being without power. 15. Have a method of logging calls and assignments in such a manner that relief dispatchers can immediately determine what has been done. 16. Keep informed of the locaton of all crews and when and where what type materials are needed. Keep advised of the status of the visiting crew, what assistance they need, approximately how much longer they will be needed, and keep their managers informed at all times.

!"#$%&'()*+,-')'./%&'0+(,')'./-% 12./,34/%&'0+(,')'./-% % If a cooperative’s contracts do not comply with federal grant requirements, it runs the risk that FEMA will declare the costs of the contracts ineligible for federal assistance. Contracts must be of reasonable cost, must be competitively bid, and must comply with Federal, State, and local procurement standards. FEMA finds four methods of procurement acceptable: •
Small purchase procedures: an informal method for securing services or supplies that do not cost more than $100,000 by obtaining several price quotes from different sources
•
Sealed bids: a formal method where bids are publicly advertised and solicited, and the contract is awarded to the responsive bidder whose proposal is the lowest in price (this method is the preferred method for procuring construction)
•
Competitive proposals: a method similar to sealed bid procurement in which contracts are awarded on the basis of contractor qualifications instead of on price (this method is used for procuring architectural or engineering professional services)
•
Non-competitive proposals: a method whereby a proposal is received from only one source, because the item is available only from a single source; there is an emergency requirement that will not permit delay; or the competition is inadequate to seek additional sources. If these conditions exist, FEMA may find this method acceptable. Otherwise, noncompetitive proposals generally are ineligible.
FEMA provides reimbursement for three types of Contracts: •
Lump sum: contract for work within a prescribed boundary with a clearly defined scope and a total price
•
Unit price: contract for work done on an item-by-item basis with cost determined per unit
•
Cost plus fixed fee: either a lump sum or unit price contract with a fixed contractor fee added into the price
Time and materials contracts should be avoided, but may be allowed for work that is necessary immediately after the disaster has occurred when a clear scope of work cannot be developed. Generally, FEMA will accept time and materials contracts with work duration of 70 hours immediately after a disaster. Applicants must carefully document contractor expenses, and a cost ceiling or “not to exceed” provision must be included in the contract. As noted, you can protect yourself by encouraging at least an informal competition among potential contractors, or better yet, by entering into pre-disaster agreements for recovery work, when conditions!are conducive to normal business procedures.

Disaster Declaration Ensure that your damage is included in FEMA’s preliminary damage assessment (PDA) process. Several factors could allow FEMA inspectors to overlook damage to a cooperative: •
Damage may be geographically dispersed.
•
The cooperative may already have made major repairs before the FEMA team gets there.
•
The value of overall damage to the county may not have reached the requisite level of $3.26 per capita, even though your co-op is devastated.
•
Whenever a cooperative incurs significant damage, but the damage is not in a county that has been declared a federal disaster area, the cooperative should follow the PDA process and be sure that its documented damage has been included in the information provided to FEMA.
•
And when the devastated co-op is in a county where damage hasn’t reached the $3.26 per capita level, the co-op should argue that the “extraordinary concentration of damage” to “critical facilities” justifies a declaration.
Footnote: This is the reason for a system to get their damage estimates, per county, completed and turned into the statewide as soon as possible. The statewide immediately reports these estimates to the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency (MEMA). MEMA will add all the damage estimates in an affected county to see if the county meets the prerequisites of a disaster declaration.
Mutual Aid A Mutual Aid Agreement is an agreement between jurisdictions or agencies to provide services across boundaries in the event of an emergency. The conditions of the agreement can be to provide reciprocal services or direct payment for services. FEMA will reimburse mutual aid costs provided that: • • • • • •
The agreement is written and was in effect prior to the disaster The assistance is requested by the Applicant The work performed is directly related to the disaster and is otherwise eligible for FEMA assistance The entity that received the aid was charged for that aid. The agreement is not contingent upon declaration of a major disaster or emergency The entity can provide documentation of rates and payment for services, if requested
The employees of the entity providing supplemental assistance are considered as extra hires or contract labor; therefore, both regular and overtime labor are eligible.

Identifying Costs The most common legal issues in dealing with emergency service reimbursements are determining whether certain costs are really incurred in connection with a disaster—and sorting out actual costs from donated resources. In a disaster, the whole community takes part in the recovery effort. Neighboring communities, too, send people, equipment, and materials. FEMA tries to determine which of these resources generated “costs” the co-op is responsible for. • •
•
If FEMA considers the mutual aid a charitable donation, it will not reimburse the cooperative for it. A cooperative should keep track of donated resources, not only so that it can separate them from its eligible expenses, but also because they count toward the 10 to 25% cost-sharing that FEMA requires. Such donated resources can add up quickly and go far to help a co-op meet its cost-sharing obligation.
In sorting out recovery costs for eligibility, FEMA distinguishes between emergency measures and permanent projects. •
“Emergency measures”—which reduce imminent threats to life, safety, and property—are clearly eligible for reimbursement. Restoration of power to businesses and residences is generally considered an emergency measure.
•
“Permanent projects”—which repair, reconstruct, or replace the public infrastructure—are not so clear-cut. Frequently, emergency measures to restore power are also permanent projects: damaged poles and transformers are replaced, and lines are restrung. Such measures, too, are eligible for reimbursement.
The restoration of power is of course a critical emergency measure for a cooperative and the community it serves—but it frequently also amounts to a “permanent” repair or replacement of damaged poles, lines, and transformers. Cooperatives should be alert, when working with FEMA, to disallowance of straight time labor by FEMA as an “emergency measure” in circumstances where great federal assistance would be available if the work in fact constituted a permanent repair and is so treated by FEMA. Keep in mind that FEMA funds only the cost to repair or replace damaged facilities; it does not reimburse cooperatives for lost revenue during the recovery period. Nor does it consider increases in operating costs (such as the cost of purchasing more expensive power to replace power that would have been supplied by a damaged generating plant). However, the cost of establishing temporary emergency services in the event of a utility shutdown may be eligible. For example, the cost of renting and operating a portable generator that can supply power to a cutoff part of the system is likely to be eligible for assistance.
-16-
Labor Costs The Labor Costs associated with conducting eligible work may be claimed at an hourly rate. Labor rates can include actual wages paid plus fringe benefits paid or credited to personnel.!"#$$!%&$!#'()*$!+,**,-.! /01('%!,-!%&$!234!2($1.$-56!7018!3*'-!9008:;!The terms of an Applicant’s employment and pay will be determined according to the Applicant’s pre-disaster written policies. An Applicant’s own labor forces are known as force account. For permanent work performed by an Applicant, both regular time and overtime are eligible for all employees. Overtime may be credited in actual wages or in compensatory time off. For emergency work, only overtime labor is eligible for: • • •
Permanent employees Reassigned employees Seasonal employees used during the season of anticipated employment.
Both regular time and overtime labor are eligible for non-budgeted employees assigned specifically to perform emergency work, including: • • •
Temporary employees Essential employees called back from administrative leave Permanent employees funded from an external source such as grants
The labor costs for employees sent home or told not to report due to emergency conditions are not eligible.
Equipment Rates The costs for using Applicant-owned (force account) equipment while conducting eligible work may be claimed on the basis of Equipment Rates. These rates typically include operation, depreciation, fuel and maintenance, but do not include operator labor. FEMA recognizes the rate of FEMA, State or local equipment rates as follows: • •
•
FEMA rates: FEMA maintains a national schedule of equipment rates for the operating costs associated with force account equipment. State rates: Applicants that use equipment rates established under State guidelines in their normal day-to-day operations may use State rates for rates up to $75 per hour upon FEMA approval of the cost development methodology. (Rates over $75 per hour may be approved by FEMA on a case-by-case basis.) Local rates: For Applicants that use rates developed by a local government in their normal dayto-day operations, reimbursement is based either on the local rates or the FEMA national schedule, whichever is lower. If the local rate is lower and the Applicant certifies that the!local rate does not reflect actual costs, the FEMA rate may be used.
The Electric Power Associations have established their own equipment rates. These rates do not include the price of fuel. These rates are found under Uniform Method of Reimbursement in the EPA Emergency Work Plan book. Equipment rates are applied only to the time equipment is actually working. Standby time and idle time are not eligible.
-17-
System Improvements What if a cooperative wants to make improvements or include mitigation measures—steps that will protect its facilities if a similar disaster strikes later on. Those permanent measures may or may not be eligible. FEMA is flexible enough to support post-disaster improvements in several ways: • •
•
Damaged electric systems must be updated in accordance with the building codes in their community that were in effect at the time of the disaster. If improvements will directly reduce the possibility of future disaster damage, FEMA is likely to fund them if their cost adds up to less than 15% of the cost of simply repairing or replacing the facility. In fact, FEMA will fund as much as 100% of the cost of such measures as elevating padmounted transformers in flood-prone areas or burying them in high-wind areas, replacing wood poles with poles made of spun concrete, anchoring mechanical and electrical equipment in critical facilities, and bracing overhead pipes and electrical lines in earthquake areas. FEMA recognizes that a co-op may want to make improvements even if they are not eligible for federal funding. In these situations, FEMA will estimate the cost of restoring a facility to its predisaster condition (including upgrades required by applicable codes and standards), and allow the co-op to use these funds for construction of the improved structure.
FEMA may approve mitigation measures—beyond those required by applicable codes—instead of a mere repair and return to pre-disaster condition if they meet the following requirements: •
• • •
The measure must be related to eligible disaster-related damages, in the sense that the proposed mitigation work must relate to the damaged elements for which restoration work on a facility is performed. The measure must directly reduce the potential of future, similar disaster damages to the eligible facility. The measure must not increase risks or impair the facility’s operation. The measure must meet existing legal requirements and standards of good professional judgment. The measure must be “cost-effective.” While an applicant can provide its own analysis to demonstrate the cost-effectiveness analysis of a mitigation measure, the following measures are deemed to be cost-effective if the combined cost of the repair and mitigation measure either costs less than 115% of the cost of the eligible repair alone on a “particular project” or costs less than 200% of the cost of the eligible repair alone on a “particular project” and is one of the eight types of mitigation measures listed below: ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Pad-mounted transformers—elevating above the base!flood elevation, or lowering them or burying them in non-flood, high-wind areas Using multiple poles to support transformers Burying lines Anchoring or otherwise protecting fuel tanks from movement in a disaster Replacing damaged poles with higher-class pole, or with a different material pole such as replacing wood poles with spun concrete Adding guy wire or other additional support to power lines Removing large-diameter communication lines from power poles Providing looped distribution service or other redundancies in the electrical service to critical facilities [Note: although it remains in its written Policy, FEMA has indicated that it may remove this category from the Policy because it does not involve repair of a particular facility.]
-18-
• Anchoring of mechanical and electrical equipment in critical facilities • Bracing of overhead pipes and electrical lines to meet seismic loads The cost used in the calculations includes equipment and labor costs. It also includes the costs incurred under any mutual aid agreement and the cost charged under repair/restoration contracts. Proposed projects must be approved by FEMA prior to funding. They will be evaluated for costeffectiveness, technical feasibility, and compliance with statutory, regulatory, and executive order requirements.
Documentation You are responsible for establishing and maintaining accurate records of events and expenditures related to disaster recovery work for which you request FEMA assistance. The documentation required describes the “who, what, when, where, why and how much” for each item of cost. These records become the basis for recovering your final project costs, and, for small projects, will be used to sample and validate your estimated project costs. Most States require you to submit documentation on costs before they will disburse any funds to you for your large projects. Proper documentation will help you justify cost overruns or time extensions. You also need cost information to develop your projects, show alternatives considered when an environmental or historic assessment was required, show that there has been no duplication of benefits, and prepare for audits or other program reviews. Incomplete or improper records can lead to either partial or total loss of assistance.
There are many ways to maintain your records. FEMA provides some forms that will help you. However, you may use your own records systems to replace the FEMA forms and to record other information. What is important is that you have the necessary information tied to each specific project readily available and in a usable format. Because work may be done before a Subgrant Application (Project Worksheet) is written, you should immediately establish a file for each site where you identify damage. This may involve opening a file for each building, vehicle, location and type of work. Depending on the type of damage, you may need to keep: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Records that demonstrate the presence of an immediate threat Drawings, sketches, and plans of pre-disaster facility design (to scale) Drawings and sketches of disaster-related damages (to scale) Drawings and sketches of completed or proposed repair (to scale) Calculation sheets detailing specific dimensions and quantities of damage Force account labor records (i.e., payroll information, timesheets, and administrative policies) Temporary hire labor records (i.e., work for which the labor was needed, payroll information, and timesheets) Fringe benefit calculations Force account equipment usage information and rate schedules Records of materials from inventory Rental and lease agreements Photographs of site, overall facility, specific damage, and repairs Subgrant Applications (Project Worksheets) Site location maps Flood Insurance Rate Maps Facility maintenance records (e.g., for roads or debris basins)
-19-
• • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
Facility inspection/safety reports (as may be available for bridges and dams) Engineering/technical reports and specifications for repair Codes and standards governing repairs/replacements Insurance information (i.e., policies, proof of loss statements from insurance company, deductible information, etc.) Documents supporting compliance with environmental and historical preservation issues Hazard mitigation proposals (as allowed under Section 406 of the Stafford Act) Justification for requests for a relocation, improved, or alternate project Records of donated labor, materials, and equipment, including location, description of work, name of worker, hours worked, value per hour, and certification Contracts or contractor bids (including invoices and copies of payments) Inspection logs for work included in Subgrant Applications (Project Worksheets) Permits Correspondence Invoices/warrants/checks Job orders Mutual aid agreements and records of mutual aid requests and receipt
The following steps should help the reimbursement process: •
• •
•
• •
Maintain accurate disbursement and accounting records to document the work performed and the costs incurred. You are responsible for substantiating all costs and your records must be complete and organized. Designate a person to coordinate the accumulation of records. Some applicants also use the services of an internal auditor. Establish a file for each project where work has been or will be performed. For projects that include more than one physical site, maintain records showing specific costs and scopes of work by site. File all of the documentation pertaining to a project with the corresponding Subgrant Application (Project Worksheet) and maintain the files as the permanent record of the project. Ensure your documentation can be retrieved by the project number assigned on your Subgrant Application (Project Worksheet). Examine the FEMA forms to see if they will be of use to you in recording your information. Keep all financial and program documentation for three years beyond the date of the State’s Final Status Report (FSR), or longer if required by the State’s record retention policies. If an FSR is not required (find out from your State PA Representative), records must be maintained for three years from the date of the final certification of completion of your last project or as required by the State. Records are subject to audit by State auditors, FEMA, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General.
All forms used for public assistance can be found at www.fema.gov/government/grant/pa/forms.shtm
A Few More Thoughts 1. There is nothing more satisfying than knowing that you are helping your community and its citizens overcome tragedy and what will seem to be unimaginable devastation. You will work harder, and be under more pressure, than ever before, but it will be an experience of a lifetime. 2. Failure to properly follow and document the procedures required by FEMA rules can jeopardize the FEMA funding that your cooperative is eligible for—and which will allow recovery and rebuilding to occur. 3. Prepare in advance. Review your cooperative’s mutual aid agreements. Make sure that your
-20-
cooperative’s insurance is adequate. Develop contracting strategies that can readily be followed in the disaster environment. Identify programs that will help your cooperative identify and address its vulnerability to disaster events—and minimize the likelihood that failure to address known risks will trigger a reduction in federal assistance.
