(AP / KLZA)-- Pawnee and Johnson counties in Southeast Nebraska will be among a dozen Nebraska counties receiving additional federal aid due to the affects of recent severe weather.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency said in a Monday news release the money will supplement state and local recovery efforts in areas affected in early June by severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line winds and flooding. Federal aid was made available to other areas of the state earlier this month.
Federal funds will be available to state and local governments, as well as certain private nonprofit organizations, for emergency work in these additional counties.
