WilCo flood cleanup operations to conclude in December

Emergency cleanup crews will finish the ongoing debris removal operations in Williamson County in mid-December, County Emergency Management Director Bruce Clements said at an Oct. 14 meeting.

The Texas Division of Emergency Management and Federal Emergency Management Agency funded the cleanup following the July 4 weekend floods, which damaged many Central Texas cities, including Leander, Georgetown and Liberty Hill.

What’s being done: Grapple trucks filled with materials like tree branches, vegetation, soil and rocks have been transporting the debris to a cleanup site in Williamson County daily. Austin Wood Recycling in Hutto is turning the natural material into mulch, amounting to an area of mulch the size of a football field and over 60 feet deep.
