Individual Assistance is FEMA's Individuals and Households Program, from OpenFEMA's Housing Assistance data for owners and renters. Public Assistance is the obligated federal share from OpenFEMA's grant award activity, which usually starts posting weeks to months after a declaration. Select a declaration number to open its full event profile.
Federal Public Assistance obligated
$2.9B has been obligated to Oregon in Public Assistance since FY2000.
$941M followed major disasters other than COVID-19. $901K followed emergency declarations, which cover debris removal and emergency protective work only. $2B, or 68% of the total, was COVID-19, which every state and county in the country received.
Obligated is the committed share, not necessarily spent, and can be revised as projects close out. Totals are summed from funded localities, so a declaration administered entirely at state level may not appear here.
Most common hazards
- Fire 103

- Tsunami 1
- Coastal Storm 1
All declarations on record
Major disaster (DR). The big one. Opens the full toolbox: repair money for public infrastructure, help for households, and mitigation funding to reduce the next loss.
Emergency (EM). Narrower and usually faster, for protective work before or during an incident. Capped, and rarely brings household assistance. Nearly every state and county has one from COVID-19.
Fire management (FM). Cost sharing to fight a wildfire as it burns. Not a disaster declaration, and it does not open recovery programs.
DR = Major disaster (Stafford Act) · EM = Emergency declaration · FM = Fire management assistance

Individual Assistance to households
FEMA Individual Assistance to households across Oregon, combined across the Housing Assistance owner and renter programs. Valid registrations are households that applied within a designated Individual Assistance area; approved figures are those FEMA found eligible under the Individuals and Households Program. Self-reported, drawn from NEMIS through OpenFEMA, and present only where Individual Assistance was designated.
| Assistance type | Approved amount |
|---|---|
| Repair and replacement | $33M |
| Rental assistance | $6M |
| Other needs | $19M |
Hazard mitigation funded
Federal Hazard Mitigation Assistance obligated across Oregon to reduce future disaster losses, by program. Figures are federal share obligated, reported through OpenFEMA and not audited.
| Program | Projects | Federal share obligated |
|---|---|---|
| Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) | 416 | $176M |
| Pre-Disaster Mitigation (PDM) | 64 | $41M |
| Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA) | 37 | $19M |
| Legislative Pre-Disaster Mitigation (LPDM) | 3 | $3M |
| Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) | 4 | $887K |
| Severe Repetitive Loss (SRL) | 1 | $135K |
Denied requests
FEMA turned down 6 declaration requests from Oregon since FY2000, a declaration-request denial rate of 4.5%. This is the President denying a governor or tribal leader's request for a declaration, tracked in a separate FEMA dataset from approved declarations, and is not the same thing as an individual being denied assistance under an approved declaration.
| Date | Type | Hazard |
|---|---|---|
| May 19, 2025 | Major Disaster | Flood |
| Feb 28, 2023 | Major Disaster | Severe Storm |
| Sep 9, 2022 | Emergency | Fire |
| Oct 6, 2021 | Major Disaster | Fire |
| May 30, 2008 | Major Disaster | Fishing Losses |
| Jun 2, 2006 | Major Disaster | Drought |
Declarations not attributed to a specific locality
1 declaration in Oregon applied statewide, or to areas FEMA did not tie to a single county or equivalent, such as wildfire management zones. They are included in the state totals above but do not appear on any individual jurisdiction page.

How these numbers are built
Every figure is drawn from FEMA's OpenFEMA datasets: the Disaster Declarations Summaries for declarations and the Declaration Denials dataset for turndowns, rebuilt automatically each week. A "declaration" is one unique combination of declaration type (DR / EM / FM), disaster number, and state, so a single disaster affecting five states counts as five declarations. Years are federal fiscal years (Oct 1 to Sep 30). Totals, ranks, and rates on this page cover complete fiscal years only. Declarations from the fiscal year still in progress are listed in each state's declaration tables and its recent-declarations panel, but are not counted in any total until the year is complete. Uses OpenFEMA data but is not endorsed by or affiliated with FEMA.
