Gov. Reynolds announces three additional counties approved for FEMA Individual Assistance under Disaster Declaration 
DES MOINES—Gov. Kim Reynolds today announced the approval of Dickinson, Humboldt, and Palo Alto Counties for Individual Assistance under the previously approved Presidential Major Disaster Declaration, FEMA DR-4796-IA, for Iowa counties where significant damage was sustained from severe storms, flooding, straight-line winds, and tornadoes that occurred June 16, 2024, and continuing. 
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Individual Assistance Program is already activated for the following counties related to this incident: Buena Vista, Cherokee, Clay, Emmet, Lyon, O’Brien, Plymouth, Sioux, and Woodbury Counties. 
Dickinson County residents are now eligible for the Iowa Disaster Recovery Temporary Housing Program. 
This program is available to survivors whose homes were majorly damaged, destroyed, or deemed not habitable in counties currently under a Presidential Major Disaster Declaration for both FEMA Individual and Public Assistance.
