Emergency Access (1 of 2)

There are times when the incident damages or impairs all access routes to an essential community service, or to a community with survivors. If the extent of damage makes these areas inaccessible, work related to providing access may be eligible. This includes debris removal from or emergency repairs to a bridge or other access facility. Eligible work is limited to that necessary for the access to remain passable.
