<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>RPA Coronavirus Rumor Control:</u></b> It has recently come to our attention that there appears to be some misinformation circulating about how to request PA assistance. This has resulted in Applicants contacting FEMA directly, rather
than going through their State EM representatives. We have been re-directing potential applicants to their State representatives for further clarification on RPA.
<span style="color:red"> <b>In addition, we (OEM) have also been receiving questions if FEMA reimbursements have to go through the County. The answer is no, each state, local, tribal government and certain Private Nonprofits that have incurred or will incur
costs as a direct result of responding to the COVID 19 event, must submit their own Request of Public Assistance, to be considered for FEMA Public Assistance.</b>

some more details, but here is a quick clarification of some different scenarios:<o:p></o:p></p>

considered non-congregate sheltering and requires pre-approval or a waiver from FEMA and must meet standard Category B requirements. Jurisdictions can do this themselves and seek reimbursement, or they can seek Direct Federal Assistance. USACE is available
for assessing sites and planning at 100% federal share and they also have standards plans available for converting hotels and other facilities available at no cost:
<a href="https://www.usace.army.mil/Coronavirus/Alternate-Care-Sites/">https://www.usace.army.mil/Coronavirus/Alternate-Care-Sites/</a> . USACE assistance for converting or constructing facilities is available at a 75/25 cost share. If you’re interested in
