(The Center Square) – Federal lands in western North Carolina are set to receive more than $30 million in emergency funding for infrastructure repairs in the wake of Hurricane Helene.

The funding comes as part of $43 million total that the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration is sending to four states affected by the storm, which caused heavy rain, catastrophic flooding, and extensive infrastructure damage in some places. The storm caused 102 deaths in North Carolina and 231 total deaths across seven southern states.
