After being able to tour the full extent of the tornado damage, it is much more than the City resources can accommodate. Private contractors working on storm debris removal will need to haul the debris to one of the appropriate sites for disposal. The City of Hot Springs will continue to assist with hauling the debris, however, contractors will be required to do the same. We will have resources allocated throughout today and will start again Monday morning through the end of next week. We are suspending city debris collections over the weekend to provide Entergy contractors to work with less congestion, however, the compost facility will remain open. Efforts by Garland County are also underway to establish and permit additional disposal sites.
