Pulaski County homeowners and renters who suffered losses in the severe storms and flooding of late February and early March now have two more weeks to apply for federal assistance. At the request of Governor Andy Beshear, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has extended the deadline for Kentuckians impacted by severe storms to register for help under the Individual Assistance (IA) program for a second time. The deadline to apply, set to expire today (July 8), is now July 23. "We are grateful that FEMA granted this extension because it will allow more Kentuckians to receive much-needed assistance following historic flooding in the commonwealth," said Gov. Beshear. "All eligible Kentuckians should take advantage of this service as soon as possible before the new July 23 deadline."
