The Federal Emergency Management Agency said local governments and eligible nonprofit organizations in Ballard and Wayne counties may now apply for federal funds to help with the cost of emergency work and repair or replacement of damaged facilities.
The addition brings the number of counties eligible for assistance due to the storms to 29, including Caldwell, Lyon and Marshall counties in western Kentucky.
FEMA said Ballard County is also eligible for snow assistance for any continuous 48-hour period associated with the Feb. 15 to Feb. 22 storms.
