No disaster
There likely will be no disaster declaration as a result of Monday’s storm, according to Lyon County Emergency Manager, Rick Frevert.
Frevert said this morning that he has not received any indication that there is enough damage throughout the state to warrant a disaster declaration.
“We’ve just been basically like everybody else picking up pieces,” Frevert said. “I just don’t see it happening.”
Frevert said the damages have to be in the form of uninsured loss and the threshold for Lyon County is around $117,000 in uninsured damages. The statewide threshold is around $3.6 million. Frevert said the counties combined have to make up the $3.6 million in uninsured damages before a disaster declaration can be obtained.
