LOS ANGELES – Property owners have seven days left to submit a Right
of Entry (ROE) form to LA County. In order to have debris removed by
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), property owners affected by
the Los Angeles Wildfires must submit a ROE form by APRIL 15, 2025. 

Federally funded debris removal is available to residents of single
family and owner-occupied multi-family units. 

All disaster impacted property owners should submit a ROE form by
April 15, 2025, to opt-in or opt-out of the debris removal program. 

If a property owner opts out
[https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/0195ab713483794292e94ff443e897b8]
of the USACE debris removal program, they become responsible for all
permits, inspections and other associated debris removal requirements
and costs. 

There is no out-of-pocket cost to have debris removed by USACE,
however the program is unable to duplicate other forms of funding
specific to debris removal. If a property owner has insurance for
debris removal, residual funds not used by the property owner may be
remitted to the county to offset the cost of debris removal at a later
date.
