SANTA FE — The Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon Claims Office has paid claimants more than $27 million to date.

“When I think about the weeks and months ahead, I really think about it as a time of accelerated action,” Director Angela Gladwell said. “The Claims Office will continue to compensate claimants as quickly as possible and ensure those claimants are receiving the full compensation under the law”.

To date, the Claims Office has paid for and put into place 62 flood insurances policies for Claimants. The Claims Office also continues to work with the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to provide Conservation Restoration Plans at no charge to claimants, which can then be submitted to the Claims Office for compensation.

The Claims Office encourages all those who were impacted by the Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon Fire and subsequent flooding to submit a Notice of Loss. Notice of Loss forms can be found at fema.gov/sites/default/files/documents/fema_notice-loss-hermits-peak-fire-form.pdf.

Claimants can submit Notice of Loss via email at fema-hermits-peak@fema.dhs.gov, or by mail to FEMA Hermit’s Peak/Calf Canyon Claims Office, or by visiting one of the three Claims Offices listed below. Claims Offices are open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
