Fluor
Corporation (NYSE: FLR) announced today that the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) has selected Fluor to provide recovery services
to Zone 1 of the Public Assistance Division’s Technical Assistance
Contracts IV (PA-TAC IV). This is part of a new approach by FEMA to
align PA-TAC IV contractors with one of three geographical zones to more
effectively provide resource support. The Fluor contract includes the
zone that extends from along the Atlantic Coast to the Gulf Coast
including 19 states and the District of Columbia. The contract has a
five-year period of performance and is valued at $610 million.
“From tornadoes in Kansas, river floods in North Dakota, earthquakes and
flooding in California and hurricanes all along the U.S. Gulf Coast,
Fluor has worked closely with FEMA for 20 years to provide assistance in
disaster-stricken locations,” said Tom
D’Agostino, president of Fluor Government Group. “Today, Fluor is on
the ground supporting FEMA in Texas and Florida with recovery efforts
from hurricanes Harvey and Maria, and in California where the state is
recovering from record flooding. This is exactly the kind of work Fluor
does well – delivering innovative and integrated solutions that meet the
needs of disaster victims in a timely manner. With this contract, we
stand ready to continue our work with FEMA and to help those in need in
the future.”
As one of three contractors selected to work on the PA-TAC IV indefinite
delivery/indefinite quantity contract, Fluor is responsible for the
resource requirements for major disasters and emergencies declared
within Zone 1.
The PA-TAC IV contract was issued under the Public Assistance Program,
as authorized under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act. Through this program, FEMA provides supplemental federal
disaster grant assistance for debris removal, emergency protective
measures, and the repair, replacement and restoration of
disaster-damaged, publicly-owned facilities and the facilities of
certain private nonprofit organizations. The Public Assistance Program
also encourages protection of these damaged facilities from future
events by providing assistance for hazard mitigation measures during the
recovery process.
