Disaster Assistance is on the Way

President Bush has granted Governor Lynch's request for disaster assistance for damage caused by last month's tornado.

On July 24th, the storm carved a 50 mile swath through five counties, killing one person and damaging dozens of homes.

The disaster assistance will make federal funds available to help clean up the damage, but as Jim Van Dongen at the Office of Emergency Management tells NHPR's Mark Bevis, there are still some uncertainties.
