USACE conducts site assessment in Honolulu for potential use as alternate-care facility
Under a FEMA planning mission assignment, a USACE technical survey team conducted a site assessment of a local hotel facility April 13 in Honolulu. The USACE team is providing initial planning and assessments for the possible conversion of existing buildings into alternate care facilities (ACFs). The FEMA mission assignments are intended to provide support nationwide to address possible medical facility shortages. USACE is working with the White House, Department of Defense, and other federal, state and local partners in response to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
