More than $20
billion promise
Flow to New York slowt
WASHINGTON <AP) —
Soon after Sept. II. President
Bush promised New York City
more than $20 billion in federal
aid. A year later, only a fraction
of that money has been spent.
Thousands of aid applications
are silting in government offices,
while the cash flow has been
slowed by red tape and a lack of
consensus over how to rebuild
the World Trade Center site.
Restrictive guidelines have
prevented others from even
qualifying for the money.

One federal grant program
administered by the state has
26.000 applications pending. Of
the 35.(XX) loan application
packets sent out by the Small
Business Administration, there
have been only about 5.(XX)
recipients. A grant program for
small businesses only began dis
tributing funds in March.
The Federal Emergency
Management Agency, which
oversees $8.8 billion of New
York’s Sept. I I aid. has drawn
the most fire for being tightfisled.
An agency accustomed to
dealing with floods, hurricanes
and earthquakes seemed intent in
the months after Sept. 11 on not
becoming the huge barrel of
Washington pork said by critics to
pay first and ask questions later.
For the first time, the agency
insisted that residents applying
for mortgage and rental assis
tance prove their losses were a
“direct result” of the attacks,
which meant rejecting 70 per
cent of the initial applicants.
