    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) announced a major disaster declaration for Connecticut due to Tropical Storm Isaias on August 4, 2020. This declaration allows for federal assistance to be provided to affected areas for public assistance and hazard mitigation, with the federal government covering 75% of eligible costs. Various counties, including Fairfield and Hartford, alongside the Mashantucket Pequot and Mohegan Tribes, are eligible for aid. Support under this declaration includes a range of federal programs, such as disaster loans and housing assistance.

    Simple Explanation

    FEMA is helping places in Connecticut after a big storm by giving them money to fix things and stay safe, but they cover only part of the costs, and the rules about this help can be a bit confusing.

  • 2025-02297 — Presidential Declaration of a Major Disaster for Public Assistance Only for the State of Alaska
    Type:Notice
    Citation:90 FR 9100
    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    The U.S. Small Business Administration has announced a Presidential declaration of a major disaster for parts of Alaska, specifically for public assistance, following severe storms and flooding from October 20-23, 2024. This declaration enables Private Non-Profit organizations offering essential governmental services to apply for disaster loans. Interested parties can submit applications online through the MySBA Loan Portal or at specified locations. The designated affected areas include the Bering Strait Regional Educational Attendance Area and the Northwest Arctic Borough.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is helping some places in Alaska that got really rainy and flooded by letting special groups borrow money to fix things. But, it's a bit tricky because they don't say exactly who can get the help and they don't tell you all the places to go if you can't use the internet.
