The agreement, signed by FEMA Region V Regional Administrator Andrew Velasquez III and Upper Sioux Community Chairman Kevin Jensvold, completed the legal requirements that will allow federal aid to be made available to the Upper Sioux Community for damages incurred as a result of severe storms and flooding this past spring.
