Hurricane Ian Private Property Debris Removal

Following Hurricane Ian’s 2022 landfall, Lee County suffered extensive wind and storm surge damage. Under FEMA Disaster Declaration FEMA-4673-DR-FL, SDR executed a large-scale Private Property Debris Removal (PPDR) program in North Fort Myers and Cape Coral.

SDR managed 520+ Rights of Entry (ROEs) and removed 47,414 cubic yards of debris, including vegetative material, C&D debris, white goods, household hazardous waste, vessels, and titled property. Operations also included 23 complete structure demolitions with site restoration to local code.

SDR’s targeted, compliant, and community-focused recovery operations restored safety and habitability for hundreds of storm-impacted properties while maintaining FEMA compliance and operational efficiency.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
  • Vessel Recovery: Removed 35 upland vessels from lawns, docks, seawalls, and structures; stabilized, staged, and disposed per regulations.
  • Demolitions: Obtained permits, coordinated utility disconnections, demolished structures/slabs, and restored sites.
  • Debris Removal: Deployed PPDR-certified crews to collect and dispose of multiple waste streams via TDMS sites.
