Residents can expect to see a significant increase in the number of crews and equipment removing debris from Bellaire. Two tandem self-contained loaders were in town today, and a third will be here tomorrow. A total of 24 pieces of debris removal equipment will be operating throughout Bellaire starting tomorrow, September 22. More equipment and crews will be here next week. This equipment will be a dedicated resource for Bellaire until the debris removal operation is complete.

Residents can expect that the vast majority of the work associated with the cleanup, including the second and third passes will be complete before the Thanksgiving Holiday.

The contractor still targets September 28 for the first pass, but October 10 is more likely for some areas. A more precise plan of attack will be developed over the weekend. Future messages will be more location-specific.

Debris Removal

An additional debris staging area was secured outside the city limits, and approved by the TCEQ, earlier today, Wednesday September 20. Suitable sites are in high demand and short supply. The contractor had been securing additional and larger equipment in anticipation of being able to use the additional site, and that equipment is in town as of this afternoon.

The debris staging area on city owned property between Anderson and First street on the north side of Bellaire is overwhelmed, and as result, the pace of debris removal has been hindered. The staging area is a vital part of the process, as debris must be compacted before it can be sent to a landfill. The city’s contractor has been compacting debris and loading trucks for the landfill, but site constraints prevent the contractor from keeping up with the loads being brought in.

We should soon be able to publish information about when specific areas will have debris removed. Your patience is appreciated, please look for future updates.
