Contractors bring vegetative debris to a temporary debris site in western North Carolina. The vegetation will be run through a woodchipper before being taken to a landfill to be used as daily topcover.
The Corps of Engineers is working in partnership with local, state and federal agencies, to include the Federal Emergency Management Agency, in response to the historic flooding from Hurricane Helene. Current efforts include removing debris from the city of Asheville, North Carolina; Buncombe, Polk and McDowell counties; as well as Lake Lure, North Carolina Arboretum and the Highlands Recreation Area in Macon County. In addition to removing debris, USACE is also working with the city of Asheville and Buncombe County to provide safe drinking water. (U.S. Army photo by Stacey Reese/released)
