The bill would allow North Carolina state, tribal, and local governments to seek reimbursement for repairing, replacing, or restoring certain private roads and bridges damaged by Tropical Storm Helene. The roads or bridges must be the only way to reach primary homes or essential community services, and the work must not duplicate completed work. Reimbursement would have conditions, including inspections, cost records, permission to do the work, and compliance with applicable rules.
If a private road or bridge is the only way to reach your primary home or an essential community service and was significantly damaged by Helene, local, tribal, or state governments could seek reimbursement for eligible work. The bill does not guarantee that a particular repair would qualify.
The bill provides for reimbursement of eligible repair, replacement, and restoration costs. It does not specify a total amount of funding. Cost estimates must be prepared and certified by licensed engineers and accepted by the FEMA Administrator.
