FEMA maintains that local resources have not been overwhelmed and federal aid is not necessary, and will not give the people of San Bruno the millions in aid requested by California officials. Thus far the final cost of the explosion and subsequent fires is unknown.
The news became public during a packed town-hall meeting led by California Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner at a San Bruno elementary school. The meeting addressed the difficulties and rights people have when making insurance claims in the face of such disasters.
Deputy Insurance Commissioner Tony Cignarale told the room full of people that they generally have about a year to submit a list of destroyed and lost items to their insurance companies, and that everyone should file a claim if they have not already done so. Cignarale also advised saving all receipts for costs associated with the explosion because they might be necessary if a claim is denied or an expense disputed.
