NOVACES Supports Lusk, Wyoming, with Economic Development Expertise after Devastating Flood
NOVACES is supporting the Economic Development Administration’s field operations staff in Lusk, Wyoming, after floods devastated a majority of the town’s homes and businesses. The flooding was a result of severe thunderstorms on June 3, 2015, which caused an overpass to collapse and divert fast-moving flood waters into the town’s central business district.
NOVACES is contracted to provide disaster recovery and economic development advisory services, including quantitative and qualitative data analysis, community engagement to organize federal support of recovery activities, and recommendations for technical assistance options to mitigate issues with the recovery.
