How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Yale

-

A crew identifies the floodwater path, sediment and wet rooms to shape the first work plan.
-
Extract standing floodwater
An extraction team removes pooled floodwater so damp layers can be assessed more accurately.
-
Remove and clean affected materials
The crew opens affected wall bases when contaminated materials cannot be restored in place.
-
Dry and verify the structure
A final set of material measurements helps determine when rebuilding can begin.
