Attachment D <br /> <br /> THE CHARLOTTE OBSERVER <br />· · TUESDAY AUGUST 5. 1997 3C <br /> <br />Federal aid for <br />flood cleanup <br />formally denied <br /> <br />Associated Press <br />RALEIGH -- Flood-damaged <br />counties around the Charlotte area <br />did not qualify for federal disaster <br />aid, a spokesman for Gov.-jim <br />Hunt confirmed Monday. <br /> Iant week, Hunt declared a state <br />of emergency in 33 counties hit by <br />the heavy rains from remnants of <br />Hurricane Danny that sloshed <br />across North Carolina. Flooding <br />was blamed for four deaths -- <br />three in Charlotte and one in <br />Stanly County. <br /> The governor's declaration <br />cleared the way for federal and <br />state assessment teams to survey <br />the damage. <br /> But federal officials notified the <br />state it did not qualify for a presi- <br />denr~al disaster declaration, Hunt <br />spokesman Sean Walsh said. The <br />declaration would have triggered <br />federal assistance for individuals, <br />infrastructure, businesses and lo- <br />cai governments. <br /> However, the state probably will <br />receive Small Business Adminis- <br />tration help in 11 counties, and <br />Walsh said the state expected to <br />receive that assistance. <br /> If the request is approved by the <br />SBA, businesses in those areas <br />could be eligible for low interest <br />loans to cover storm-related losses. <br /> <br /> <br />
