FEMA posts a public dashboard of reimbursement requests
What the document says“The Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency shall post an interactive dashboard on the public-facing website of the Federal Emergency Management Agency with any request for reimbursement for a covered expense, delineated by state”
Section 313(a). FEMA must publish an interactive dashboard on its public website showing requests for reimbursement of covered expenses, broken out by state and by whether the amount is individual assistance or public assistance under an emergency or major disaster declaration. A request must appear within 90 days of the agency receiving it and within 60 days of the department putting it under final review. Subsection (b) sets the minimum contents by reference to a paragraph in the explanatory statement.
What the document actually says“The Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency shall post an interactive dashboard on the public-facing website of the Federal Emergency Management Agency with any request for reimbursement for a covered expense, delineated by state”
FEMA must put a live chart on its website. It shows who has asked to be paid back, state by state.
After a disaster, states ask FEMA to pay them back. This shows those asks in the open. Each one must appear within 90 days.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
