Due to damages caused by flooding, authorities in several counties -Desha, Arkansas, Lincoln, Drew, Bradley and Lonoke, thus far- have locally declared a disaster for their areas. They have not requested assistance from ADEM at this time. However, ADEM area coordinators are in close contact with local coordinators, emergency management and other authorities as they assess damages.
