CARTER COUNTY, Ky. (WSAZ) -- Residents in Carter and Lewis Counties who suffered damages during the July severe storms and flooding are able to get one-on-one information about federal and state disaster assistance programs at Disaster Recovery Centers this week.
The centers, which opened Tuesday morning, are located at the Olive Hill Historical Society and the Lewis County Volunteer Fire Department.
Both centers will be open through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The centers are staffed by Kentucky Division of Emergency Management, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the United States Small Business Administration (SBA).
Disaster recovery specialists at the centers can check an individual's application status, answer questions, or review information needed to process their application. Recovery specialists also can supply contacts for other state, federal and voluntary agency programs that may be able to help.
SBA representatives will be there to answer any questions about the SBA's low-interest disaster loans available to homeowners, renters, businesses and private non-profit organizations of all sizes. SBA representatives are available to assist with completing and submitting disaster loan applications.
FEMA mitigation specialists are also at the centers with information on flood insurance and how to rebuild safer and stronger after a flood.
