June 2022 Flooding: Disaster Recovery Application
June 2022 Flooding: Disaster Recovery Application
The DRP provides financial assistance for uninsurable loss and damage caused by emergencies and disasters. Following a disaster, affected municipalities can apply to the program and, if the municipal application is approved, affected residents can apply to the Province for financial assistance. In July 2022, we put an ask for residents to submit details about the affects of June 2022 flooding on their properties. The deadline for submissions was September 14, 2022.
Application Status (May 2023):
Our initial DRP application was denied in February 2023 and we appealed that decision in March 2023. We continue to wait for a response to the appeal.
We will continue to share updates here, as well as directly with affected residents, as they are available.
More information about the Alberta Government’s Disaster Recovery Program (DRP), including the types of disasters covered by the program, is available online at https://www.alberta.ca/disaster-recovery-programs.aspx. Residents affected by ground flooding are encouraged to review the Homeowner and residential tenants fact sheet for details about qualifying for the DRP.
