What does this mean?For CDBG disaster recovery, each activity must:
1. address a disaster-related impact (direct or indirect) in a Presidentially-declared county for the covered disaster,
2. be a CDBG eligible activity (according to regs and waivers)
3. meet a national objective
![Page 9: HUD Disaster Recovery Overview IRWA FAU - 2013](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051019/56814e8f550346895dbc335d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
“Recovery” ActivitiesDisaster-related activities are those that are able
to demonstrate a logical connection between the impacts of the covered disaster and the activity’s contribution to community recovery.
Examples:– rebuilding homes and infrastructure damaged by the
disaster – providing assistance to affected business owners
