The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) intends to provide federal financial assistance under the Legislative Pre-Disaster Mitigation Program to San Joaquin County in San Joaquin County, California, to improve water and storm drainage system reliability and resiliency against power outages during storm and flood events. The proposed action would mitigate impacts from flood hazards by installing five emergency backup generators and upgrading one pump at existing pump stations. Pursuant to Executive Order 11988 (Floodplain Management) and FEMA’s implementing regulations at Title 44 of the Code of Federal Regulations Part 9, FEMA hereby provides interested parties with a notice of its intent to carry out an action affecting a floodplain.

The purpose of the proposed action is to reduce flood hazards. The proposed action would occur at five pump station locations and consists of installing a new gas generator and upgrading the existing pump at one location, replacing an existing generator with a new gas generator at another location, and installing new gas generators at three other locations. The generators would be installed with new gas connections, automatic transfer switches, and electrical connections with new electrical service. The proposed generators would be placed on concrete pads. Services would feed from the public right-of-way to each site with new gas meters installed

OKLAHOMA CITY – After Oklahoma residents apply for FEMA assistance for the March wildfires, a home inspection may be necessary to help determine whether the home is safe, sanitary and livable, or to confirm its present condition.

FEMA recognizes that many survivors of the March wildfires suffered significant or total loss of property. The FEMA inspection process requires in-person verification of the applicant, co-applicant or someone authorized to speak on their behalf, as well as the address of the damaged dwelling. Providing photographs or video of the damaged property before and after the disaster can help the inspector to accurately assess the extent of the damage.

FEMA inspectors do not make any decisions about eligibility for assistance. Information gathered during the inspection is only one of several criteria FEMA uses to determine if applicants are eligible for federal assistance. 

If the home is standing, the housing inspector will consider:

The structural soundness of the home, both inside and outside.Whether the electrical, gas, heat, plumbing and sewer/septic systems are in working order.Whether the home is safe to access and can be entered and exited safely.

If the home is not standing, the housing inspector will:

Verify the current state of the property to accurately assess the extent of the damage.

All FEMA representatives have official identification. Housing inspectors will make an appointment with the applicant before the visit. They will already
