Flood Information July 22 Update

More than fifty people volunteered to help clean up the Dierks city park on Saturday. Several local businesses contributed food, water, and other items for the volunteers, as repairs are made from last week’s flooding event. The boil order at Dierks was lifted on Friday, however bottled water is still available at the Dierks municipal building.

In Howard County, if you need immediate assistance from this week’s flooding, contact the American Red cross at 501-584-9184.

For farm related assistance needs, contact the Farm Service Agency office.

Beginning this Wednesday, July 24th at 8 A.M., a call center will be opened in Howard County for residents to report damages. That number will be 845-7524.
