BONNEVILLE COUNTY, Idaho (KIFI) ÔÇô The deadline is quickly approaching for Idaho small businesses to submit their applications for an SBA federal disaster loan. This assistance is for economic injury stemming from flooding due to extreme rainfall that occurred in Bonneville County on May 23, 2023.

Francisco Sánchez Jr., associate administrator for the Office of Disaster Recovery and Resilience at the Small Business Administration, emphasized that time is of the essence, as the deadline for applications is April 24, 2024.

Small nonfarm businesses, small agricultural cooperatives, small businesses engaged in aquaculture, and most private nonprofit organizations are eligible to apply for Economic Injury Disaster Loans of up to $2 million.

“Economic Injury Disaster Loans can be used for a variety of purposes, such as paying fixed debts, payroll, accounts payable, and other bills that have been affected by the disaster. It’s important to note that economic injury assistance is available even if the applicant did not suffer any property damage,” S├ínchez stated.

The low-interest federal disaster loans are accessible in various counties in Idaho and Wyoming, including Bingham, Bonneville, Caribou, Jefferson, Madison, Teton counties in Idaho, as well as Lincoln and Teton counties in Wyoming.

For businesses, the interest rates are set at 4%, while for private nonprofit organizations, it is 2.375%. The terms for these loans can extend up to 30 years, with loan amounts and terms being determined by the SBA based on each applicant’s financial situation.
