REPORTING DISASTER-RELATED DAMAGE
TO YOUR PRIMARY RESIDENCE

Before proceeding, read the Frequently Asked Questions about disaster assistance to individuals.  If you have any questions call the Emergency Operations Center at 360-385-9368.

THIS IS THE NEXT STEP:

  1. Report only damage to your PRIMARY PLACE OF RESIDENCE (where you live, not a secondary home, vacation home, etc.).
  2. Submit all of the required information on the attached damage reporting form.  (Note:  Raw estimates of damage amounts are acceptable at this point).  The damage report is in a printable .pdf format.   
  3. The damage must be the direct result of a disaster that is serious and wide spread.
  4. A preliminary damage report is not a CLAIM.  The figures your submit are used to determine if there is sufficient uninsured damage county wide to warrant a request for Federal disaster assistance from FEMA.
  5. Print the damage report, use one of the reporting options below.

Now you must report within seven days following the disaster using one of these methods . . . 

  1. Call in your report during business hours (8:00 am to 5:00 pm weekdays) 360-385-9368.  A special reporting time may be announced.  Check local news media or log on to www.emergency-information.blogspot.com to find out when you can report.    
  2. After hours leave a message at 360-385-9368.  Include a number where you can be reached during the day.  A staff member will return you call as soon as possible.
  3. You can fax the completed damage report form to 360-385-9376.
  4. Or you can mail your completed damage report form to 81 Elkins Road, Port Hadlock, WA 98339.
  5. To e-mail your report, fill it out on your computer, save it to a unique file name and email your completed damage report form (in .pdf) to jcdem@co.jefferson.wa.us.
