FEMA Grants Top $3 Million
WEST VIRGINIA....
Since the Obama administration approved a disaster declaration for Logan, McDowell, Mingo and Wyoming counties that suffered damage by flooding and mudslides from severe storms on June 12th, nearly 1,800 households have registered with FEMA for state and federal disaster assistance. Federal disaster grants totaling more than $3 million have been approved to help businesses and residents. The aid is primarily for temporary housing or repairs.
