FEMA Set Up Shop in Woodbridge To Help Hurricane Irene Flood Victims

While the House and Senate continue to wrangle back and forth about how much money they want to replenish the Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA had boots on the ground in Woodbridge last Friday to make sure township residents hit hard by Hurricane Irene got the help they needed.

Congressman Leonard Lance, who represents the 7th District to which Woodbridge belongs, got the ball rolling by having FEMA reps at the Woodbridge Community Cente r to help homeowners struggling with the flooding that ravaged parts of the township.

"It's a meeting to give an orientation and information to residents affected by the hurricane and the floods and rains that followed," said FEMA spokesman Rossyeth Rey-Berrios.

"It's very important that every one that was affected follow the instructions to register with FEMA," Rey-Berrios explained. "You have to follow the registration instructions, call the 800 number, provide your name and number and what damages occurred to your house," she said.

"We are encouraging survivors to get registered so we can let them know all the information they need to provide to us. We give them easy and helpful step-by-step instructions," added Rey-Berrios.

The FEMA number for anyone needing help is 800-621-3362. Victims of Hurricane Irene can also visit the FEMA disaster website .

The disaster agency's community relations reps answer particular questions and go into the field, street by street and meet individually with homeowners to document damages and provide assistance, Rey-Berrios explained.

Carlos Costa, a Woodbridge resident who lives on Harrell Avenue, came out to the information session and talked to a FEMA community relations representative. Hurricane Irene did a number on his home. 

"I had power outage during the hurricane and that broke the sump pump, and my basement flooded," Costa said. The water in his basement rose so high that it ruined carpeting and furniture in his finished basement, as well as sheetrock.
