Moving Forward on Debris Removal
 If you've opted-out of the government-run debris removal program, a webinar about hiring a debris removal contractor is coming up on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. Click this link to join the webinar.
Property owners who opted out of the government-run program, choosing to hire private contractors for fire debris removal, can receive an Eaton and Palisades Fire Debris Removal permit via the County’s EPIC-LA system. This permit allows home and business owners—and their authorized private contractors—to manage their own debris removal efforts while ensuring compliance with local, state, and federal safety and environmental standards.
