  • About McGee Disaster Consulting Group

McGee Disaster Consulting Group (MDCG) is a disaster consulting firm specializing in FEMA Public Assistance. Our team’s experience spans FEMA program operations, applicant-side grant management, and project closeout, providing a comprehensive understanding of recovery from project development through final reconciliation. We bring a practical understanding of the regulatory and compliance requirements, funding processes, and operational demands that shape disaster recovery.

To us, disaster recovery is about being a steadfast advocate for protecting the public assets, essential services, and infrastructure that communities rely on every day. We take that responsibility seriously. Our approach combines sound judgment, thorough documentation, and clear communication to help organizations navigate complex requirements and advance critical restoration efforts.

We are seeking experienced professionals who share that commitment and bring the initiative, technical expertise, and attention to detail needed to support lasting recovery.

Note: This is a consulting position supporting organizations participating in FEMA’s Public Assistance program. It is not a federal government position.

The EHP Documentation Specialist gathers and organizes information supporting environmental and historic preservation review of Public Assistance projects. The role coordinates documentation requests, tracks review and condition status, and maintains records supporting implementation and closeout.

The Specialist identifies documentation and coordination needs but does not independently issue environmental clearances, conduct agency consultations, or perform specialized studies.

  • Gather available permits, prior studies, technical reports, and relevant project records.
  • Coordinate EHP information requests with applicants and technical personnel.
  • Track review status, outstanding questions, documented conditions, and applicable approval records.
  • Communicate unresolved review or condition issues to project leadership before affected work proceeds.
  • Flag scope, design, location, or construction-method changes requiring additional review coordination.
  • Gather potential historic-property, floodplain, wetland, habitat, or other resource questions.
  • Identify permit, consultation, or specialist-study documentation needs for escalation.
