The most important things to note (but please be sure to click on the link above to access additional resources that are there):
REPORTING DAMAGES
Mainers who have experienced damages as a result of interior and coastal flooding due to recent extreme storms are encouraged to report those damages by calling 211 Maine or filling out one of the forms list below.
1. Individuals & Households Initial Damage Assessment: Online Survey or PDF form.
2. Business and Agriculture Initial Damage Assessment: Online Survey
By reporting this damage you are NOT applying for assistance. This information is to assess damages and will be provided to your town to enable them to learn who has storm-related damages.
Please report damages sustained by the Jan 10 and Jan 13 storms separately. The deadline for information on the Jan 10 storm is Jan 18; the deadline for information on the Jan 13 storm is Jan 21.
Information provided will help the State of Maine estimate the full impact of the storm and unlock the maximum amount of potential Federal support available.
