    On January 6, 2021, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) mistakenly published a notice in the Federal Register stating that $185,730,000 would be allocated for mitigation activities related to disaster recovery. The correct amount is actually $186,781,000. This notice issued on January 15, 2021, serves to correct that error. If anyone has questions regarding this correction, they can contact Aaron Santa Anna at HUD.

    Simple Explanation

    HUD made a mistake in how much money they said would be given for fixing problems caused by big disasters. They first said the amount was a bit less than it actually is, so now they are correcting it to the right number.

    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) issued a notice amending a major disaster declaration for South Carolina due to Hurricane Helene. This amendment, issued on October 4, 2024, changes the cost-sharing for federal assistance, allowing 100% coverage for debris removal and emergency protective measures for a selected 90-day period within the first 120 days after the disaster. This assistance is authorized under the Stafford Act, with specific Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Numbers to be used for financial reporting.

    Simple Explanation

    FEMA is helping South Carolina after a big hurricane by paying for all the cleanup and safety work for 90 days, so the state won’t have to pay for it.

    Simple Explanation
