Sinclair teamed up with Salvation Army to provide critical relief to communities picking up the pieces left behind by Hurricane Helene .Lots of debris accumulated on the northern part of the lake on Saturday afternoon
Communities across the Southeast and right here at home are hoping for a return to normal soon, following Hurricane Helene.Chief Todd Ohlerich with the SML Marine Volunteer Fire Rescue Department says crews have been helping to clear the areas over the past few days.“This morning we went out to survey where the debris field had gone. On Friday into Saturday we noticed a heavy debris field coming down to the marker of R61 about on the Roanoke River.
“It’s AEP’s lake so they take care of debris removal. It’s very water-logged and very heavy so they can only take so much at a time," Ohlerich said. He said running into debris like a stump can be damaging to your boat's engine and to be especially vigilant at nighttime. Ohlerich said one strategy to help mitigate as much debris in the future is to employ tactics like buffer landscaping, which uses smaller bushes to contain things like mulch.“I think the debris will continue to move and dissipate and sink. The removal crews will take care of some of it. It will eventually go away," Ohlerich said.
