KENTUCKY...
Bulletin---Pike County Judge-Executive Wayne T. Rutherford announced the completion of the assessment phase required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to make the County eligible for federal funds. This process will now go forward as the results of the assessment will be forwarded to Governor Steve Beshear, who in turn will send the data to Washington to be reviewed for President Obama’s action, making the funds officially available. This action by the President should be swift in coming and the next step in getting help for Pike County residents will begin to move forward. Eligibility for reimbursement for government entities and individuals will be determined in the next few days. Pike County now begins the process of recovery.
