I wondered this myself. I called the MPs on the staircases, but got no commitment from the "newbie" dispatcher.
Later, I towed and tied one set to my shoreline. A yellow Tow boat appeared, passed slowly by my address (one I had left with the MPs), raced around a bit, then left.
I'd guess that taxpayers are paying for the "tow" of large debris. 'Sure wish they'd return -- I'm getting quite a collection. Maybe once it's ashore, they won't tow it?
BTW: My dock now has just 2" of freeboard remaining. It shook heavily with just the light chop of Friday afternoon. There were heavy showers in the Ossipee Mountains towards dusk yesterday.
I agree with DRH: The NWZ message was too little and too late.
