This Executive Order also amends prior Executive Orders related to the historic 2013 flooding in Colorado by extending the availability of disaster funds. The extension is needed due to the State's and the federal government's timeline for the administrative closeout of projects and to ensure all local entities achieve the maximum reimbursement possible.
