Public Assistance for the permanent repair of FHWA is not available. FEMA may assist with limited emergency repairs to FHWA roads only for those cases in which there is an immediate threat to public health and safety. The Applicant has not demonstrated that an immediate threat to public safety necessitated the work completed on FHWA roads. FEMA may reimburse basic engineering and design services tied to the performance of eligible work. On second appeal, the Applicant submits documentation tying $7,980.00 in engineering costs to eligible work performed on non-FHWA roads.

Work completed on FHWA roads is ineligible for PA funding. However, the Applicant has documented the eligibility of $7,980.00 in engineering costs related to work performed on non-FHWA roads and the appeal is granted in that amount.
