    Metadata Updated: August 4, 2024

    This dataset lists all requests for major disaster declarations and emergency declarations that have been denied. For more information on the FEMA disaster declaration process, please visit: https://www.fema.gov/disasters/how-declared.rnrnThis is raw, unedited data from FEMA's National Emergency Management Information System (NEMIS) and as such is subject to a small percentage of human error. The dataset is primarily composed of historical data that was manually entered into NEMIS after it launched in 1998. This dataset only includes major and emergency disasters; there are no Fire Management Assistance Grants declarations. Additionally, NEMIS utilizes census data from the United States Census Bureau in which Tribal Nations are listed as localities within a State. As such, disaster declarations for Tribal Nations are currently included in State data.rnrnIf you have media inquiries about this dataset, please email the FEMA News Desk at FEMA-News-Desk@dhs.gov or call (202) 646-3272.
