These services must be provided as close as possible to their original site, and are essential to timely and effectively support and aid disaster Survivors. There is only a very limited pool of regional contenders fulfilling these requirements. If this SSJ is not approved, it will reduce the inventory of pads in that region and unduly delay the housing of survivors.
