Costs incurred after the public health emergency ends May 11 will not be eligible for funding under the COVID-19 Public Assistance Program, the Federal Emergency Management Agency announced March 30.  

“However, in recognition that costs may be incurred for demobilization, disposition, and disposal activities after the end of the emergency work completion deadline, FEMA is providing a limited 90-day extension (August 9, 2023) to complete demobilization, disposition, and disposal activities,” the guidance adds.
