Tornado Debris

In the shadow of the political assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning USA, a stain now exists upon our nation's collective conscious, a condition that must be excised, or our nation will not function properly as one of a self-governed people. Understanding these long standing truths: What would you suggest as a quick, and, or proper corrective measure?

20% Destroy the Fascist Donald Trump and all of MAGA, because America must never be Great Again.

80% Our self-governed people, and their properly restored institutions, under President Trump, must discover the root causes to properly correct, and save our Constitutional Republic.

0% I thought we had to shut down Free Speech we don't like to save our "democracy," so I am totally confused now.

For Immediate Release:

    Beaufort County Government wants to announce that pick up and removal of all vegetative and C&D (construction and demolition) debris has not begun within Beaufort County.

    The debris pickup will not begin until the county has some idea concerning the availability of State or Federal grants. C&D debris and vegetative debris may be separated and stored on your property until the county announces any plans for the pickup of these materials.

    Please do not place debris on the NC DOT right-of-way along state maintained roads. Homeowners may also take vegetative debris to the Beaufort County landfill, located on Hawkins Beach Road. Hours of operation are 8:00am to 4:30pm Monday through Saturday this week. All tipping fees at the landfill for vegetative debris generated by the severe storms and tornados of April 25, 2014 have been waived by directions of the Beaufort County Board of Commissioners.

    If Beaufort County begins picking up C&D debris FEMA guidelines will prohibit Beaufort County from picking up or removing debris that were deposited by a contractor paid by a private resident. FEMA states that homeowner’s insurance policies will cover the removal of a demolished home. FEMA rule also state that if a resident hires a contractor to demo their residential or commercial structure and load it into a container for shipment, that contractor then becomes liable for removal of the debris to an approved and licensed landfill.

    Beaufort County has received, and is investigating complaints of debris dumping that is not a result of the April 25, 2014 event. All cases of dumping of trash or debris that is not related to the storm event are a crime and will be investigated. We urge all residents with questions or complaints to call Beaufort County Emergency Management at 946-2046.
