FEMA and USDA Disaster Declarations

Both FEMA and the USDA have declared disasters for the July flooding.  This means additional funds are available for disaster recovery. More information on receiving assistance is below.

FEMA Disaster Assistance

For the latest information directly from FEMA: https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4810.  Damages from the July 10th-11th storm in Essex and surrounding counties

may be eligible for financial assistance.

To apply for assistance

ONLINEhttps://www.disasterassistance.gov/ 

PHONE: 1-800-621-3362 (TTY: 800-462-7585)

IN PERSON at a Disaster Recovery Center. The nearest centers to Essex County are:

Brighton Town Hall Gym (8AM-7PM every day)

49 Mill St, Island Pond, VT 05846

Lyndon Public Safety Facility (8AM-7PM every day)

316 Main St, Lyndonville, VT 05851

Guidance for applying for assistance:

  1. Apply to insurance first (homeowners, renters, car, flood, etc.).

  2. Gather all required personal documentation (identityproof of property ownership and residency).

  3. Gather all disaster damage-related documentation (insurance denial letter, receipts for clean-up supplies and contractors, contractor estimates, photos of all damage, etc.) for your FEMA case.

  4. Check ‘home damage’ at the beginning of your FEMA application if you have disaster-related damage outside your home (driveways, culverts, bridges, external retention walls, etc.) in order to trigger a damage inspection.

The July 29th-30th storm has yet to be declared a disaster. People affected by this storm can register with FEMA, but will not be approved for assistance until that declaration is approved.
