FEMA to close Southern Indiana disaster recovery center

SELLERSBURG — The Federal Emergency Management Agency says tornado and storm victims have only a few more days to meet with specialists at its southern Indiana disaster recovery center.

FEMA says the center on the Ivy Tech College campus in Sellersburg will remain open until 6 p.m. Friday. It opens daily at 9 a.m.

FEMA says more than 660 Hoosiers have visited the center where specialists answer questions about recovery programs and U.S. Small Business Administration representatives help people complete low-interest disaster loan applications.

The center opened last month following the March 2 tornadoes that caused widespread damage and killed 13 people in southern Indiana.

May 8 is the last day to register for discovery recovery assistance. Registration also is available online at www.fema.gov or www.DisasterAssistance.gov or by calling (800) 621-FEMA (3362).
