Advanced Technology and Local Expertise to Expedite FEMA Funding , /PRNewswire/ -- ICF (NASDAQ:ICFI), a global consulting and technology services provider, has been contracted by the Town of Lake Lure, North Carolina, and several other towns, counties and utilities in North and South Carolina to provide comprehensive disaster assessments and recovery support in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. ICF's Carolina-based teams are partnering with local officials to assess damage, navigate the Federal Emergency Management Agency Public Assistance (FEMA PA) program, and identify additional federal funding opportunities to maximize assistance. "Hurricane Helene caused unprecedented damage to communities, homes and utility infrastructure, impacting countless lives," said Anne Choate, ICF executive vice president for energy, environment and infrastructure. "By combining ICF's deep disaster management and energy expertise with advanced technology, we are helping community leaders confidently and quickly stand up new funding programs and strengthen their infrastructure. Together, we will work to accelerate recovery efforts and build resilience against future disasters." To expedite recovery for several clients, ICF has deployed disaster assessment teams in the impacted communities and utilized drones to conduct rapid, high-resolution aerial damage assessments. This cutting-edge approach has already documented damage across over 110 square miles and 80 miles of critical infrastructure—the largest continuous drone operation in the company's history. The detailed imagery enables fast, accurate data collection and informs recommendations for recovery and mitigation projects.
