Q1.6 Post-Hurricane Harvey Field Study in Beaumont/Port Arthur, Texas Organization Recovery Survey Consent Script     We are conducting a research study on recovery following the flooding that occurred in Beaumont/Port Arthur, Texas in the days following Hurricane Harvey.  Hurricane Harvey hit Texas first and then traveled across the Gulf coast hitting Louisiana as a tropical storm on August 25, 2017. We would like to speak with you about how this event affected your organization. We are interested in learning about the process of recovering from the flooding. There have been a few different flood events since Hurricane Harvey, but we ask that you answer the survey with regards to your experience with Hurricane Harvey. There are some sections that ask about flood events more generally as well.   This study is part of a larger project led by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Locally, the Texas Sea Grant Offices and the Hazard Reduction and Recovery centers are leading this effort.   We would like to ask you some brief survey questions about your organization experience after the flood as well as some details about your organization during this time. Participation will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the experience of your organization with Hurricane Harvey. Your participation is voluntary. If you decide to participate in the study, you may withdraw your consent and stop participation at any time without penalty.   We will be collecting information about the damage to your organization, the repair process, and how the flood disrupted your organizations' employees, services, and revenues. When we report and share our findings, we will combine the data from all participants into summary statistics and tables so no unique individual or organization can be identified. There are NO KNOWN RISKS or direct benefits to you. We hope to gain more knowledge on how you and others were affected by Hurricane Harvey and the flooding so that we can learn from your experiences to help Charleston and other communities better prepare for similar events in the future.   If you are the owner, manager, chief executive officer etc. of the organization that was here at the time of Hurricane Harvey and the flooding OR someone who knows about what happened to the organization would you be willing to complete the survey?
