Middletown storm cleanup unlikely to get federal aid
Federal disaster funds seem unlikely for Middletown as Ohio fails to qualify for disaster area status due to inadequate prior disaster spending. Estimated damage tops a million dollars in Middletown. four weeks of cleanup anticipated with many residents handling property repairs themselves. Electrical and communications services were still strained with 350 phones out of service. CG&E reported 60 thousand dollars in emergency costs as crews of about 700 work through the aftermath of the storm. School and interstate traffic largely restored.
