Governor: Report Damages to 2-1-1 Infoline

State says residents and businesses who suffered property damages inflicted by Hurricane Irene should document them by calling the state's telephone hotline.

The state is urging any business or resident who experienced property damage from Hurricane Irene to report it to the state’s free telephone infoline by calling 2-1-1, or online at www.211ct.org.

Officials will then use the information collected to help put together the state’s official request for a disaster declaration from FEMA.

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy called the step “critical” in the state’s bid to secure federal aid.
