OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Gov. Mary Fallin has announced that disaster assistance from the U.S. Small Business Administration is now available for eight Oklahoma counties.
In a news release Thursday, Fallin said that the administration will aid recovery efforts in the aftermath of tornadoes, severe storms and straight-line winds that began March 30. Fallin said the administration granted the state's request for low-interest disaster loans for homeowners and business owners in Tulsa County to repair storm-damaged property that was not covered by insurance or other assistance programs.
Other counties that are also eligible for aid include Creek, Okmulgee, Osage, Pawnee, Rogers, Wagoner and Washington counties.
