Flood Damage Info
Procedure for Flood Assistance
As a result of the recent storm of 12/18/2023, there is a procedure that is followed to determine damages and assistance availability. The State will collect data regarding the damage that occurred town by town and county by county. It takes some time to make this assessment especially with widespread damage of different levels. If the total State figure is high enough, the Governor can then declare a disaster and seek federal help. This process will take awhile and it’s always unclear whether private property will be covered. The town is and will continue to do whatever is necessary to get the maximum amount of state and federal aid possible. Fees for bona fide flood damaged items taken to the transfer station will be waived for the next couple of weeks but proof of property location may be required.
NH Homeland Security and Emergency Management has stated the following: If the storm damaged your home or business, you could be eligible for assistance. If your home is your primary residence, and you sustained damage, please contact representatives at 211 or 1-866-444-4211 between the hours of 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday-Friday to fill out a damage report.
