Federal Emergency Management Agency Program (FEMA)

This program, administered by FEMA, provides for emergency and permanent repairs to facilities on the state highway system. In addition to the actual repairs, FEMA funds may also be used for engineering, planning, supervision, design, and inspection.Recent changes in Federal reimbursement limit the assistance from FHWA or FEMA. During any major emergencies the Maintenance Division will inform the districts which federal agency will be assisting with reimbursements.
