Iowa's public facilities sustained about 100 million in flood damage from last year's record surge. Ellen Gordon says federal aid covers 90 percent of totals, with state costs near 10 percent plus absorbed state-owned property losses. Executive Council has committed 6 million in payments, 3 million spent so far, while restoration timelines stretch into fiscal 1995.
