FEMA registration begins Sunday

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Flood victims in Greenbrier, Kanawha and Nicholas counties can apply for individual disaster assistance with FEMA beginning Sunday.

Application can be made either online at DisasterAssistance.gov or by calling 1-800-621-FEMA (3362). The number will operate from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. seven days a week until further notice.

Individual assistance can include grants for temporary housing and home repairs, low-cost loans to cover uninsured property losses and other programs, FEMA said.

The disaster declaration also includes public assistance for the three counties. Gov. Earl Tomblin is expected to seek assistance for other counties once damage assessments are completed.
