I went to the Norton clean-up for a few hours on Saturday; I can't speak as an official representative, but it sure seems like they could use a loaner Disc-washer. If anybody has any kind of LP vacuum-washer-brusher contraption, you might consider offering them a temporary loan. Friendly folks, great label, and good vibes all around considering the depth of the destruction.
