Q. Some homes have experienced new flooding and seepage as a result of the FDD installation. Many basements are "finished" with carpet, drywall perimeter walls, etc. What measures have been, or will be done, by the City to alert the homeowners of black mold that can be concealed by the "finish" materials in the basement? Refer to the following link: http://www.poison.org/current/indoor%20mold.htm

[CITY] A.The Footing Drain Disconnection Survey being conducted on behalf of the SSWWE CAC includes several questions about flooding and seepage. If responders indicate that they’ve experienced these issues, we will determine what measures to take.

This response does not answer the question and the question should not be closed.

I will repost this.
