After questions were raised about the safety of temporary housing, FEMA says it will help relocate flooding victims who want to move.

Back in June, flooding forced Iowa residents from their homes into trailers. Later, an Iowa TV station discovered high levels of formaldehyde in the FEMA-issued mobile homes.

Formaldehyde is a preservative. It's been proven to cause cancer and breathing problems.

FEMA disputes the methodology of the investigation, but says it will assist people who want to move.
