Author: BIRMINGHAM, Alabama — The cost of removing debris from last week’s deadly tornado in the city of Birmingham could run as high as $10 million, Mayor William Bell said Monday.

City officials will try to recycle as much debris as possible, Bell said. Wood, for example, could be turned into mulch, he said.
