Petitioners filed a second application (No. 5341A) with FEMA
on January 11, 1995, indicating a date of loss of January 6.3
Boxes 8 and 10 of the application indicate that the damage in
question was caused by flooding, rather than by earthquake. FEMA
responded to this application on April 4, 1995, apparently
awarding $300 for damage to “foundation and masonry”.
Petitioners appealed FEMA’s April 4, 1995, decision. By
letter dated April 20, 1995, FEMA advised petitioners, in part,
as follows regarding Application No. 5341A:
This is in response to your letter of appeal regarding
your assistance from FEMA. We have reviewed your case
again and determined that the original decision was
correct because:
X FEMA’s Home Repair Program (HRP) covers only
those damages caused directly by disaster.
ALL ELIGIBLE items have been addressed in your
initial award. [Emphasis in the original.]

This determination is final regarding assistance from
the FEMA Disaster Housing Program. * * *
Petitioners filed a disaster loan application with the U.S.
Small Business Administration (SBA) on a date not disclosed in
the record. By letter dated March 28, 1995, SBA advised
petitioners, in part, as follows:
3 The application does not specify the year of the loss;
however, based on the application as a whole, 1995 would appear
to be the year of the loss.
