WINTER STORM RESOURCES
We’ve been working closely with Metro Nashville’s Office of Emergency Management and TEMA to expedite assistance wherever possible. As of today, we have deployed an additional 50 debris-removal workers and secured additional skid steers to clear access points and expedite restoration.
On January 24, Governor Lee announced that the President granted an Emergency Declaration to support Tennessee’s response. This declaration allows access to federal operational resources for response activities; however, it does not include federal assistance for individuals, households, or reimbursements.
On January 28th, Governor Lee requested an Expedited Major Disaster Declaration. If approved, this would unlock federal aid for individuals and households in 23 counties. We are pushing hard for that approval, as it would make a meaningful difference for families facing extended outages.
