FEMA begins to set up recovery centers in New Jersey

(MCT) — PHILADELPHIA — Federal officials moved to establish disaster-recovery centers in storm-damaged areas of New Jersey as relief equipment and workers poured in, aid money began to flow, and state police were dispatched to arrest looters.

Mobile recovery centers will be set up first, followed by permanent centers for residents and business owners to file applications for aid, Craig Fugate, administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, said Thursday.
