Removal and disposal of animal carcasses, including interim processing, is eligible. If the removal and disposal is conducted as part of the overall debris removal operations, the work may be funded as Category A.

FEMA may require certification from the State, Local, Tribal, or Territorial government health department, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or the U.S. Department of Agriculture that a threat to public health and safety exists.

• When few in number, smaller animal carcasses (e.g., rodents, skunks, or possums) do not usually pose an immediate threat to public health or safety. Removal and disposal of these carcasses are not eligible.
