General Process
- ROE Collection: Homeowners sign a Right of Entry request allowing USACE access to their property to perform an Assessment and if warranted install a Temporary Roof.
- Assessments: Quality Assurance Inspectors (QAs) conduct an Assessment of the damage and if warranted prepare a contractor Work Order.
- Installations: Contractors are given a Work Order for each individual structure. To allow scheduling flexibility, contractors have up to 10 days to complete the work. Once a Contractor has installed the temporary roof and performed the quality control, the roof is reported as being complete to USACE.
- Final Inspections: Final inspections of the contractors work and quality control program are conducted after the temporary roof is installed, with the minimum being 10% and the max being 20%. Increasing Quality Assurance final inspections above 20% for any single contractor requires FEMA concurrence. State concurrence is also required if cost sharing is in effect. Once a Contractor has installed the temporary roof and performed the quality control, the roof is reported as being complete to USACE.
