Province's Flood Assessments Done By Summer

Of the 900 claims made to the provinces' Disaster Financial Assistance Plan in the wake of the Charlotte County floods, about half of them have been processed.

Public Safety Minister Robert Trevors tells CHSJ News the rest of the assessements should be wrapping up by the summer.

As for infrastructure repairs, he says assessments will be done this spring and the repairs will probably be completed by the fall.

The province estimates that the total bill for disaster relief and repairs will be about 30 million dollars.
