The purpose of the Utah Disaster Recovery Framework (UDRF) is to provide a structure for post-disaster activities coordinated by the State and serve as a guide for local jurisdictions in developing specific, actionable recovery plans after a large scale disaster.
FEMA helps state, local, tribal, and territorial governments and certain types of private nonprofit organizations respond to and recover from major disasters or emergencies. The application process is handled by the state, while FEMA provides funding and guidelines.
