Bill overview
This bill aims to provide greater federal assistance to communities affected by harmful algal blooms. It modifies the Stafford Disaster Relief Act to specifically include algal blooms as a trigger for declaring a major disaster. This would allow local governments to access federal resources to address the economic and public health impacts of these blooms. The bill seeks to strengthen the government’s ability to respond to and mitigate the damage caused by these events.
