Active Disasters
What We Do
From its offices in Boston, FEMA's Region I works in partnership with the emergency management agencies of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters.
Region I's most common challenges are hurricanes and other storms that can cause flooding and flash-flooding throughout the region, and severe winter weather.
Ogunquit Beach Restoration Project
The small and picturesque town of Ogunquit is one of Maine's magnets for tourists. The lure that brings them there is the beach - what town leaders call the "town's treasure."
Balancing these interests and bringing the parties together took time, patience, consultation and cooperation. But after nearly two years of meetings and negotiations, a number of agreements were reached among the parties.
