FEMA shoots down individual aid for flood damage
Here is the FEMA Denial Letter
Congressman Owens issued this statement:
“It is unfortunate that FEMA has decided to deny Governor Cuomo’s request for individual assistance for counties affected by spring flooding.  I urge the Governor to appeal this decision and will support his effort should he decide to do so.  Severe weather has caused a great amount of damage to property and local economic development, and it is critical that our communities receive the assistance they need to recover.”
