Hoeven: N.D. to get $1 billion in aid
U.S. Sen. John Hoeven said North Dakota is expected to get more than $1 billion in federal disaster assistance.
MINOT (AP) — U.S. Sen. John Hoeven said North Dakota is expected to get more than $1 billion in federal disaster assistance.
Hoeven said the Minot area that was hit by record Souris River flooding earlier this year already has received almost $400 million through various federal programs, and more funding is pending.
The $1.3 billion figure supplied by Hoeven on Monday includes everything from road repair money to disaster loans. He said the amount will rise as additional claims are made.
