The provincial government is accepting applications for property owners affected by storm surge earlier this month.
An intense low pressure system resulted in a storm surge that slammed into coastal communities all along the northeast coast of the island from January 4th to the 6th.
Disaster relief is available to affected residents from the Southern Shore of the Avalon Peninsula to Gander Bay.
Homeowners, tenants, small business owners, municipalities and LSDs, as well as other organizations are eligible to apply.
Wednesday, April 30th is the deadline to submit a claim.
Compensation will be determined by criteria established by both federal and provincial disaster financial assistance programs.
