Ramsey County │ Annex H: Mass Care and Shelter 32 limited to, incidental room charges, such as telephone, room service, food, etc. To determine their eligibility for the TSA program, impacted populations must register with FEMA by visiting www.DisasterAssistance.gov or calling (800) 621-3362 (TTY 800-462-7585). 3.5.2.2 FEMA Rental Assistance FEMA may provide grants to eligible applicants to help impacted populations pay for temporary housing (i.e., renting a place to live temporarily). Rental assistance can be used for renting an apartment, house, travel trailer, or staying at a hotel, bed and breakfast, or another short-term rental. Expedited rental assistance is available for impacted populations who are unable to return to their homes or have destroyed homes. Eligible impacted populations can receive up to one month’s rental assistance based on the fair market rate. 3.5.2.3 FEMA Direct Housing Direct housing may include placing manufactured housing units (MHUs) and recreational vehicles (RVs) in existing commercial parks, campgrounds, or pre-existing pads that have direct access to utilities; placing MHUs and RVs on private property where codes, conditions, and support infrastructure are available; and repairing or making improvements to existing multifamily housing units (ex. apartments) for use by disaster wildfire impacted populations. 3.5.3 DEMOBILIZATION During the demobilization phase, RCEMHS will support the transition back to steady state. This support includes the following key tasks: • Drawdown and return of resources. County-provided personnel, supplies, and equipment are released from deployment and returned to their normal operating/storage location(s). • Collection and submission of documentation. Examples include EOC activity logs, EOC action plans, receipts, contracts, and any other documentation that is not otherwise protected. Documentation should be turned in and maintained according to EOC procedures. • Public information. Strategies should shift to connect residents and visitors with recovery services or long-term recovery groups as appropriate. This may include mental health resources, individual assistance, and sources for ongoing information. The County may benefit by engaging trusted community messengers and stakeholders to assist in adequate and sustained promotion of situational awareness to hard-to-reach populations. • Feedback and integration. Appropriate level feedback (hotwash, debrief, after-action review) should be gathered from participating personnel and submitted for improvement planning. • Return to readiness. Response trailers, supply caches, and other resources utilized during response must be replenished and returned to a state of readiness for the next activation.
