In plain English
The federal government declares a major disaster for Puerto Rico and is sending money only for rebuilding public infrastructure and government facilities, not for individual homes. Small business owners should apply for SBA disaster loans right away and prepare for a long recovery period, since restoring roads, utilities, and public services will take time.
