Residents may call 2-1-1 from any home phone or 1-866-469-2211 from a cellular or business phone seven days a week from 8:00am – 8:00pm beginning today. This information will assist Emergency Management in obtaining damage assessment information in order to determine the need for State resources for Black Hawk County.
