FEMA records obtained by NBC 5 Investigates show that Kerr County officials did not use FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert & Warning System to send warnings with safety instructions to all mobile phones in the affected area during critical hours as the flooding began on July 4.

In the last nine years, federal funding for a system has been denied to the county as it contends with a tax base hostile to government overspending.

Kerr County authorities said dozens of people are dead, many remain unaccounted for and more than 800 people were rescued. As the survivors try to piece back together their lives, we compiled a list of resources to help those specifically impacted by the deadly floods.
