CLOSURES

Please be aware that JIA crews are continuing to clear debris along the roadways and around the island today and through tomorrow. Please use caution as some beach crossovers, bike paths, and trails may not yet have been inspected and some areas of the island may still have storm debris.

Georgia Power is continuing to work through remaining power outages in the area. Residents and businesses without power should follow the Georgia Power Outage Map online for their specific timeframe of restoration. 

Waste Management will resume trash pickup on Wednesday, August 7 with anticipation of returning to the normal schedule next week.

Residents with yard debris from the storm should follow Waste Management's guidelines and regulations for yard debris pickup or contact Waste Management for these guidelines and pickup schedules.

Residents using a tree service for any downed trees should ensure they have received a permit for removal. The permit requires the tree removal service to transport the tree fragments and debris off the island. This will not be picked up by JIA.
