A description of the disaster is as follows: <br /> Tornado damage caused stream blockages which as created an <br /> exigency condition around road and highway bridges and on <br /> cropland, continued exigency conditions will exist until <br /> stream blockages are removed to allow full capacity flow <br /> to the effected streams. <br /> This work is needed to safeguard lives and property from an imminent hazard of <br /> floodwater and erosion. <br /> We understand, as sponsors of an emergency watershed protection project, our <br /> responsibilities will include acquiring landrights and permits needed to <br /> construct, and if required, to operate and maintain the proposed measures. <br /> The names and addresses of the contact persons in our organization are as <br /> follows: <br /> A <br /> Chairman, Cleveland SWCD <br /> 28150 <br /> 124-1 South Post Rd. , Shelby, N.
