Default After the basement flood. Now what?

Hello,
Lots of water in the basement due to the NE floods. RI got creamed. I
ripped down the sheetrock, took up the subfloor and laminate. All in a
dumpster now. Fans and dehumidifier are running. I am going to rebuild the
basement.

How long do I need to wait until I can begin rebuilding? I was thinking at
least a few months to ensure everything is really dry. (wood studs down
there)

Thanks for your time.
