2. Extract standing floodwater

   An extraction team removes pooled floodwater so damp layers can be assessed more accurately.

   The crew opens affected wall bases when contaminated materials cannot be restored in place.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A final set of material measurements helps determine when rebuilding can begin.
