In the state of Florida, re-entry to a damaged area is determined by local officials. It is extremely important for individuals to follow the instructions of local law enforcement and elected officials who are working to resolve hazardous conditions before community members return. Local officials know their communities and are best-suited to facilitate a safe and timely re-entry process.
The Florida Re-entry Guidelines require that anyone seeking re-entry should carry the following three items:
If you are unable to re-enter an area that has been deemed safe after a disaster, or if you experience an issue with a curfew order, please contact the Private Sector Hotline at 850-815-4925 or email ESF18@em.myflorida.com.
We apologize for the inconvenience. Send an email to ESF18@em.myflorida.com with your name and User Email ID, and we will reset your account.
