(Burns, OR) -- Oregon Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley, along with Governor Tina Kotek, are asking FEMA to help residents of Harney County following the worst flooding in over 70 years. The City of Burns' sewer system was flooded which sent raw sewage into homes. More than 14-hundred people were evacuated. Many of the homes need to be cleaned from raw sewage. FEMA is being asked to provide Individual Assistance. That would help uninsured residents cover costs for basic needs and repairs.
