KS Requests Federal Assistance tor Storms, Debris   Date: July 28, 2010
   Kansas wants federal funds to help pay for removing debris and repairing infrastructure following storms and flooding in June. Lieutenant Governor Troy Findley has sent a request for a disaster declaration to the federal government. He acted for Governor Mark Parkinson during Parkinson's recent trip to England for an international air show. Findley says the federal assistance will help the 77 counties affected by the storms to clean up and make repairs to roads, bridges and utilities. The state estimates that the counties face nearly $11 million worth of cleanup and repairs, most of it in fixing roads and bridges.
