Flood Recovery Plan Includes Debris Pickup for Several Neighborhoods

Kanawha County officials said an emergency management action plan has been put together to help with recovery following a devastating flood that ripped through the county, damaging an estimated 100 homes. The action plan is for the Hughes Creek, Kellys Creek, Rutledge Road and Campbells Creek areas after 4 to 6 inches of rain pummeled the area earlier this week. Under the plan, flood debris should be placed by the road off private property for pickup. Dump trucks will travel the areas, picking up the debris from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. through Sunday, Aug. 21, and may continue as needed. Employees with the Emergency Management and the Planning Office will go to the affected areas to complete damage assessments on personal property. Volunteer efforts and donations for victims also will be coordinated.
