The Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management is urging Lewis County residents to apply for assistance from FEMA after the June 29 derecho.

It said residents should still apply even though FEMA didn't include Lewis County in its original declaration.

It hoped to convince FEMA to add Lewis County to the list by demonstrating need in the county.

Call 800-621-6632 as soon as possible to report any derecho-related damage.
