Conclusions

Basic Industry Jobs Return

Federal Assistance to Basic Industries Reduces Recovery Times

Non-basic Jobs Dependent on County Population

34

Conclusions, Continued

Minimize Non-Basic Industry Job Loss by Retaining Population

Federal Disaster and Debris Removal Assistance Provides Boost to Local Economy For 3 Years After Disaster, Little Impact Thereafter
