City of San Angelo officials issued the following guidelines on how to handle debris from the flooding and storms.
Residents should report property damage to the Texas Division of Emergency Management (select the July 2 event, or the general incident damages/losses).
Once everything is safe, they encourage citizens to document, as best they can, any damage related to the flood to assist with emergency funding support.
Please review the debris management information listed below, this is extremely important information.
See the attached flyers for instructions on how to sort debris for curbside pickup. Sorting properly is required by FEMA
Filling out an iSTAT (Individual State of Texas Assessment Tool) for flooding damage in Texas is not a request for reimbursement and it is not an application for financial assistance.
Instead, it is a preliminary damage assessment tool used by the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) to:
• Collect information about damage to private property (homes, businesses, etc.)
• Help local and state officials understand the extent of the damage
• Support the state’s request for federal disaster assistance (e.g., from FEMA)
Key points:
• It does not guarantee assistance or reimbursement.
• It is not a substitute for filing insurance claims.
• It helps determine if the area qualifies for a federal disaster declaration, which could make residents eligible for FEMA assistance later.
Household Trash/Perishables
- Bag and place perishable and household waste at the curb. Collection will begin Monday, July 7, and continue on a regular basis.
Non-household debris (e.g., furniture, construction materials)
- Must be separated and placed at the curb as instructed.
- Pickup will begin in approximately one week by a FEMA-compliant debris management contractor.
- Proper sorting is critical — unsorted debris will not be collected.
