SEATTLE, Wash. -- A Disaster Recovery Center (DRC) opens in Monroe at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds on Tuesday, Feb. 3 to provide face-to-face assistance to people suffering damages from the severe winter storm, landslides, mudslides, and flooding from Jan. 6 to Jan. 16. Residents of King, Lewis, Mason, Pacific, Pierce, Snohomish, Thurston and Wahkiakum counties were designated for federal individual assistance in the Presidential disaster declaration of Jan. 30, 2009, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) officials said.

FEMA and the Washington Emergency Management Division (WEMD) announced the following DRC location and hours:

Evergreen State Fairgrounds
14405 179th Ave SE, Building 501
Monroe, WA 98272
Opens Tuesday, Feb. 3 at noon
Hours of Operation: Monday - Saturday 9 a.m. - 7 p.m.; Sunday 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. (until further notice)

Applicants can register for FEMA assistance by calling, toll-free, 1-800-621-3362 (FEMA), TTY 1-800-462-7585, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week, or register online at www.disasterassistance.gov. Registration is available until March 31, 2009.

Visitors to the DRC will find information on:

FEMA and State disaster assistance programs
SBA low-interest disaster loans and how to complete the loan application
Smart building techniques to reduce damage from future floods, and
Flood insurance
When applicants register for FEMA assistance they will be asked: location of damaged property, their Social Security number, a phone number where they can be contacted, a general description of the damages and insurance coverage, and basic financial information to determine the likelihood of supporting an SBA low-interest disaster loan. The telephone interview takes approximately 20 minutes. People should only provide this personal information if they call the center, not if someone calls them claiming to be from FEMA
