Pasadena, Calif., March 17, 2010 -- FEMA Public Information Officer Michael McCormick describes to an LA Times reporter that Federal funding is available to eligible State and local governments and certain private nonprofit organizations on a cost-sharing basis for emergency work and the repair or replacement of facilities damaged by the severe winter storms, flooding, and debris flows. The FEMA mission is to support our citizens and first responders to ensure that as a nation we work together to build, sustain, and improve our capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, and mitigate all hazards.
