Emergency Hurricane Agnes flood project manual, 1972.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/84326910

The series consists of an unpublished administrative manual for the Emergency Flood Project undertaken by the State Board of Equalization and Assessment in the aftermath of Hurricane Agnes in 1972, when New York counties suffered extensive damage to real property because of flooding. The crash program was undertaken to compile and specify information on the impact of flood damage upon real property assessments, to develop a program to alleviate the effects on property owners, school districts, and local governments, and to assure full advantage of available federal programs of tax relief and emergency response measures in the disaster areas.
