    Paul Gaudreau, a quality assurance representative from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' New England District, estimates loads of debris to be dumped from the F-5 tornado that tore through Joplin, Mo., May 22. Here, the New Bedford, Mass., native watches trucks entering and exiting the dumping facility and estimates the amount of the driver's load to accurately measure the amount of vegetative material (trees, shrubs and other plants) that is being hauled by contractors out of the tornado zone. This estimate helps to fairly determine the amount of money the government will pay the contractor for their hauling services. The Expedited Debris Removal mission is a massive operation, assigned to the Corps by FEMA.
