The US Corps of Engineers has requested my company Paragon to provide 20 technical persons to go within the next ten days to work in Puerto Rico to evaluate the Hurricane Maria damage. These persons will provide reports of damage, prioritize repairs, and Health & Safety assessments. I need persons that can work in Puerto Rico for four weeks and return home one week. They will repeat this cycle several times.
