Kentucky residents affected by the severe storms, tornadoes and floods that 
struck the Commonwealth between April 12 and May 20 have less than one month 
to register for disaster assistance.
FEMA Registration Deadline: July 18, 2011.
Storm survivors in 21 designated Commonwealth counties must register with 
FEMA in order to obtain federal disaster grants and low-interest loans. 
Registration is the first step in that process and keeps open the 
possibility of a wide range of assistance.




To register or to have questions answered about FEMA disaster assistance 
applications, call 1-800-621-FEMA (3362) or TTY 1-800-462-7585. Registration 
is also available online at www.DisasterAssistance.gov. Information about 
the United States Small Business Administration (SBA) and the disaster loan 
application is available by calling 1-800-659-2955 or visiting SBA online at 
www.SBA.gov.




"The registration deadline is approaching, and we want to encourage those 
who need disaster aid to apply now," said FEMA Coordinating Officer Steve 
Ward. "We want everyone who is eligible to receive assistance to get that 
help."
FEMA disaster assistance can include grants for temporary housing and home 
repairs, replacement of essential household items and clothing, and other 
programs to help individuals and business owners recover from the effects of 
the disaster. Registration also is necessary to apply for SBA low interest 
disaster loans to cover losses not covered by insurance.
The July 18 registration deadline is for residents of Ballard, Boyd, 
Carlisle, Carroll, Crittenden, Daviess, Fulton, Graves, Hardin, Henderson, 
Hickman, Jefferson, Johnson, Lawrence, Marshall, McLean, McCracken, 
Livingston, Pike, Union and Webster counties in Kentucky.
FEMA's mission is to support our citizens and first responders to ensure 
that as a nation we work together to build, sustain, and improve our 
capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and 
mitigate all hazards.
