What Is Your Plan to Manage All That Debris? (Room 620)

In 2016, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works developed the Operational Area Mass Debris Management Plan (OA MDMP). The purpose of the OA MDMP is to establish coordinated debris management operations, including debris removal, reduction, recycling, haul-out, final disposal and documentation. The presentation will focus on the reasons for the development of the OA MDMP and the buy-in of the OA Plan with the 88 incorporated cities of Los Angeles County. It will outline the steps taken to develop the plan, the multi-discipline, multijurisdictional planning team, the tabletop exercise, the template developed for the local jurisdiction to develop specific debris plans for their jurisdictions, and the development of the OA MDMP Standard Operating Guide.
