    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.
