ARLINGTON In the aftermath of last weeks flooding events, Snohomish County Department of Emergency Management is collecting preliminary damage assessments for primary residences and businesses.
SCDEM will collect damage information countywide to provide to the state and federal governments.
This data collection effort is being done to possibly qualify for a presidential disaster declaration that would provide individual assistance for some losses.
Citizens are asked to call the SCDEM Call Center at 425-388-5060 with their information.
