Governor DeWine Activates State Disaster
Relief Program for 12 Ohio Counties
(COLUMBUS, Ohio)— Ohio Governor Mike DeWine announced today that he has authorized the use of the State Disaster Relief Program (SDRP) to support 12 counties that were significantly impacted by severe storms and flooding during several weather events that occurred over the following time periods:
February 14 - 16, 2025:
* Jackson County
March 30 - April 10, 2025:
* Athens
* Clermont
* Hamilton
* Jackson
* Lawrence
* Meigs
* Monroe
* Noble
* Scioto
* Shelby
* Washington
July 26 - 28, 2025:
* Fairfield
The State Disaster Relief Program is a reimbursement program that can be used in instances where storm damage amounts do not meet the threshold for federal assistance but do meet state program requirements. This program is intended to provide supplemental state assistance to local governments and eligible private non-profit organizations for costs associated with certain damage repairs, debris removal, and emergency protective measures.
The SDRP is authorized for counties whose damages meet a countywide per capita indicator. Governor DeWine's authorization allows the Ohio Emergency Management Agency to request the funding from the Ohio Controlling Board.
