Individual Flood Aid for 4 Counties

     PIERRE, S.D. (AP) - People and businesses hurt by flooding in
four South Dakota counties are now eligible for disaster aid.
     The Federal Emergency Management Agency initially denied the
request for individual aid in 11 South Dakota counties. The state
appealed, and FEMA has now approved aid for people and businesses
in Charles Mix, Hughes, Stanley and Union counties.
     Individual aid has not been approved for the other seven
counties, but FEMA says other counties could be added to the
approval list later. The other seven counties are Clay, Day,
Hamlin, Hand, Lyman, Kingsbury and Yankton.
