Adjusts eligibility period for base and overtime wages for rebuilding after disasters.
The Reducing Red Tape for Rebuilding Act amends the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act. It changes the eligibility period for base and overtime wages for extra hires used in substantial damage determinations. These wages are now eligible for up to 180 days after a major disaster is declared. For other rebuilding activities, the eligibility period extends up to two years after a date chosen by the recipient of the relevant contribution. This adjustment aims to streamline the rebuilding process after disasters.
