    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced that the President declared a major disaster in North Carolina due to Tropical Storm Helene, which began on September 25, 2024. This declaration allows federal assistance for affected counties and tribal lands, including aid for individuals, debris removal, and emergency protective measures. FEMA states that federal funds will cover 75% of eligible costs for Hazard Mitigation and Public Assistance under the Stafford Act, although exceptions exist for certain projects. Various counties and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians are designated for specific assistance, and all state areas can receive Hazard Mitigation funds.

    Simple Explanation

    FEMA says the President has decided to help people in North Carolina after a big storm by giving money to fix things, clean up, and keep people safe. But they will only pay for part of it, and some people might think that's not enough.
