RE: Authorization for Disaster Debris Management Sites (DDMS) - Matthew
Dear Zack Blalock:
In accordance with the Emergency Final Order OGC No. 16-1319 (the Order), which was executed on 10/5/2016, the Department may issue field authorizations for disaster debris management
sites (DDMS) to be used for temporary storage and processing of disaster debris. Disaster debris includes hurricane/storm-generated debris and all other types of disaster debris. The
Order also gives the Department authority to include specific conditions in the field authorizations for the operation and closure of a DDMS, which may delineate a required closure
date that extends beyond the expiration of the Order. A copy of this Order may be obtained from the DEP website http://www.dep.state.fl.us/mainpage/em/info.htm
The Department has evaluated your request for a DDMS at the following location:
WACS ID: 32131

1. Standing water must not be allowed to accumulate in or within 50 feet of areas used to store or process disaster debris;
2. The Department must be notified when the site is opened and begins accepting debris, and when the site is closed and stops accepting debris;
3. Access must be controlled to prevent unauthorized dumping and scavenging;
4. A DDMS must have spotters to correctly identify and segregate waste types for appropriate management;
5. Once the site is open, a spotter must be located in the area where waste is being deposited in order to spot and remove prohibited waste items;
6. The DDMS is limited to managing the type(s) of debris listed above; any putrescible waste received at the DDMS must be removed from the site within 48 hours; all other types of
prohibited waste should be managed in accordance with the guidance document (see link below);
7. Unless otherwise approved by the Department in response to a written request from you, the DDMS must cease operation, and all disaster debris must be removed from the site by 11/2/2016
.
The Department has also prepared a guidance document on the establishment, operation and closure of a DDMS for disaster debris. This guidance includes recommended practices, which you
are expected to follow as much as practicable, as well as additional requirements from the Order. A copy of this guidance document is available on the DEP website:
