Funding Detail

FY 2013 - Clean up of Davis County wind storm

FY 2012 - On the 9th and 10th of June 2011, eight National Guard personnel were put on State Active Duty (SAD) orders to assist the helicopter operation in setting sandbags for the Weber River Floods. This was a State Activation of personnel and the National Guard requested funding from the Governor's Office in the amount of $1,500 to pay for personnel costs. This emergency was also supported and funded through federal funding and final payment for the total cost of the helicopter operation is pending. After receiving federal funding for the operation, the National Guard has set aside $1,500 to reimburse the emergency fund, thus, restoring it to $100,000.
