Springfield to receive FEMA grants for winter-storm costs

SBJ Staff

Posted online September 25, 2007 | 11:00 pm

The city of Springfield will receive $4 million in grants from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to cover costs of the severe winter storms encountered in the last year.

The grants – $2.12 million for debris removal and $1.8 million for debris removal monitoring services – are in addition to a $21.3 million FEMA grant for City Utilities that was announced last month.

FEMA provides the funding directly to the state, which then is responsible for ensuring that eligible sub-grantees receive the awards. The awards are based on need.[[In-content Ad]]
