(INDIANAPOLIS) - Hoosiers in the southwest part of the state who sustained damage caused by severe weather beginning Tuesday, July 31, 2012 can report damage online at https://myoracle.in.gov/hs/damage.
A link to the form is also available on the Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS) website at www.in.gov/dhs. In the middle of the page under "Featured Topics," click on "Report Damage From Severe Weather July 31, 2012."
Individuals will be asked to provide their name, address, phone number, damage to property and type of damage the property sustained. Losses can include structural damage to homes and loss of personal property.
FOR QUESTIONS
For questions, contact your county emergency management agency. Local agency's contact information is available by accessing: http://www.in.gov/dhs/files/sanitized_compact_directory.pdf
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE INTERNET ACCESS
Individuals without Internet access are encouraged to contact a friend, family member or neighbor for assistance. Web access is also available at many libraries, religious institutions, community centers or other public facilities. If none of those options are available, individuals may also contact their county emergency management agency to report damage.
NOT AN APPLICATION FOR ASSISTANCE.
This is not an application for a grant with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Information will be used to help local emergency management agencies and the Indiana Department of Homeland Security preliminarily assess damage to determine if federal assistance can be pursued.
All Hoosiers are advised to stay tuned to local radio and television weather broadcasts or listen to an all hazards alert radio for updated warnings and safety information related to potential weather threats.
