According to Peter Judge, public information officer of the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency, Essex, Middlesex and Norfolk counties in this state will be eligible for flood damage funds once the president declares the area a federal disaster. In this town, bridges and roads are still underwater so it impossible to determine how extensive the damage is.
"We need to see if the bridges were affected," Jerry Galvin, police chief of Wayland, tells GlobeSt.com. "We will probably get some funding but most of it will go to overtime rather than for actual damage."
