Louisiana won’t have to pick up a share of the cost for the Federal Emergeny Management Agency’s immediate response and recovery operations after Hurricane Ike. Gov. Bobby Jindal’s office says that will save state and local governments an estimated $15 million to $20 million.
Language added to a spending bill recently passed by Congress required FEMA to drop the requirement that state and local agencies pay a share of the Ike emergency response work and debris removal after the September storm.
FEMA will pay those full costs and will cover 90 percent of the costs of permanent rebuilding work and other types of hurricane assistance from Ike, with state and local agencies required to cover the remaining 10 percent.
