DOL provide DHS/FEMA with additional staff to augment existing cadres in response to Presidentially Declared disaster/incident(s) as needed.

As directed by and in coordination with FEMA, US Department of Labor (DOL) will provide permanent Federal agency personnel (to exclude temporary hires of the other DHS agencies) willing to deploy for a field assignment to supplement DHS/FEMA's disaster response and recovery efforts.

To meet the DHS requirement, FEMA is requesting employees who have been identified as Tier 4 personnel, in accordance with standards established in the DHS SCF Concept of Operations, dated April 2010.

NOTE: Agencies do not receive advances of funds from FEMA to pay for mission assigned activities. FEMA must receive a request for payment for mission assignment work to process reimbursement from the Disaster Relief Fund (DRF).

This cost estimate reflects approximately $2,000 per week to fund the SCF Mission Assignment for one SCF member for 7 weeks.

The US Department of Transportation/Federal Highway Administration to provide supplemental personnel to Puerto Rico to complete Puerto Rico Division Office mission essential functions including damage assessments.

Assessments of the road network and infrastructure are critical components of immediate response to permit relief supplies to reach survivors and permit freedom of movement to essential services, such as medical care. There is an immediate need for additional qualified inspectors to complete the assessments. Existing staff within Puerto Rico are also survivors and require additional resources to fulfil this critical task as soon as possible. Activation of FHWA personnel for detailed assessments for determining long term restoration requirements and cost analysis will expedite assistance resources.

The Federal Highway Administration/USDOT requests a mission assignment for costs associated with supplementing staff resources within Puerto Rico to conduct response and recovery activities for Hurricane Maria. Specifically, DOT/FHWA personnel will conduct initial damage and safety assessments for initial response and detailed assessments and cost analysis for recovery. The costs associated with these tasks may include: travel to/from CONUS to Puerto Rico, as well as within Puerto Rico; lodging and meals (when not provided direct berthing by FEMA); commercial shipment of support equipment for assessments; and labor costs outside of normal duty hours.

DOT/FHWA will complete structural and road surface condition assessments to determine immediate status for safety and mitigation to limit further damage during the initial response. Following response, DOT/FHWA will determine actual recovery and restoration costs associated with damaged roads and bridges, undertake damage assessment and cost validation work for both operating and capital costs of those systems using FHWA personnel and/or contracting support.

DOT/FHWA will examine the methodology and reasonableness of the cost estimates generated by DTOP. The objective of the assignment is to reach a single cost estimate for each damaged asset or set of assets to serve as the basis for reimbursement by appropriate funding sources.

This work will be conducted in concert with FEMA to inform critical decision makers; determine actual eligible expenses under different Federal programs (Stafford Act, FHWA, state and local resources, etc.); assist FEMA in completing damage and condition surveys and follow-up surveys, and assist FEMA and FHWA in noting vulnerabilities and verifying project worksheets, as needed.

All purchases must be coordinated with FEMA. Prior approval, from the Federal Approving Official (FAO), is necessary to ensure reimbursement. Agencies will be reimbursed for all eligible expenses pursuant to 44 CFR 206.8 Reimbursement of Other Federal Agencies.

Mission Assignment Task Orders (MATOs) may be issued for specific personnel requirements, locations, dates, and duration of assignments. The purpose of the MATO is to direct specific activities within the scope of an existing MA. A MATO form may be used if no additional funding is needed and the scope of the existing MA is not changed. If, at a later time, additional funding or completion date extensions are required, an amendment to the MA shall be issued to include the appropriate information. New requirements, outside the scope of the original MA, require the issuance of a new MA.
