HUD: $10,01 млрд восстановления, $8,29 млрд смягчения и $166,3 млн по Фионе

The active grants and CDBG-DR contacts registry of HUD Exchange places Puerto Rico in several disaster cycles, each with its own grant number and amount. For the 2017 hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and María, the Puerto Rico row identifies $10,005,815,230 and the numbers B-17-DM-72-0001 and B-18-DP-72-0001 within the listing. That amount is labeled as Grant Amount, not as disbursed or spent money.

In the CDBG-MIT section for disasters from 2015 to 2017, Puerto Rico is listed with the grant B-18-DP-72-0002 and $8,285,284,000. The table distinguishes it from the CDBG-DR block of $10.01 billion. Although both amounts correspond to the post-2017 hurricane recovery ecosystem, HUD Exchange places them in separate programmatic sections and does not present them as a single account.

For the 2022 events, the page lists the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico with B-23-DN-72-0001 and B-23-DN-72-0002 and an amount of $166,312,000. The cycle appears under public laws 117-180 and 117-328. The source functions as an institutional roster: it associates grant numbers, grantee, amount, point of contact, and a link to the grantee's site.

Puerto Rico also appears in the section of 2020 events under B-21-DZ-72-0001, with $184,626,000. In the section of floods, wildfires, and other events of 2019, the territory is listed under B-19-DF-72-0001, with $36,424,000. These are different grants from the María fund, the MIT fund, and the 2022 cycle; adding their amounts requires keeping those labels.

The roster also retains a historical entry under Hurricane Ike Grants: B-08-DI-72-0001 for Puerto Rico, with $29,982,887. That row has a contact point different from the one appearing in recent cycles. Its presence shows that the page is not an exclusive table of María or Fiona, but rather a broad inventory of disaster recovery grants that remain in the published record.

For recent entries from Puerto Rico, HUD identifies the Deputy Secretary for Disaster Recovery of the Department of Housing's CDBG-DR program as the point of contact. The page provides a mailing address, phone number, email, and a link to the grantee. These fields confirm which agency administers the grant on the roster; they do not report how much the Department has spent or how many projects it has completed.

The HUD Exchange header also summarizes Congressional appropriations by fiscal year for CDBG Disaster Recovery across the United States. It reports $12 billion in fiscal year 2025 for events in 2023 and 2024; $3 billion in 2023 for events in 2022 or later; $2 billion in 2022 for events in 2021 and 2022; and $5 billion in 2021 for events in 2020 and 2021. These national figures are not additional amounts exclusive to Puerto Rico.

The same list of appropriations includes two entries for fiscal year 2019: $2.4 billion for events from 2017 to 2019 and $1.68 billion for events in 2018. For 2018 it points out $28 billion allocated for recovery from events from 2014 to 2017. For 2017 it shows $7.4 billion directed to events of that year and another appropriation of $400 million for events in 2015, 2016, and 2017.

The page extends to appropriations and grants from previous decades, including Sandy, Katrina, Rita, Wilma, floods, fires, and September 11. Its value for the Puerto Rican notebook is in the exact grant number. B-18-DP-72-0002 identifies MIT; B-23-DN-72-0001 and 0002 identify the 2022 cycle; B-21-DZ-72-0001 corresponds to the 2020 cycle; and B-19-DF-72-0001 to the 2019 cycle.

The page title is “CDBG-DR Active Disaster Grants and Grantee Contact Information.” It does not present columns for obligation, drawdown, expenditure, available balance, or physical progress. Therefore, describing the Grant Amounts as $10.01 billion “disbursed” or $8.29 billion “spent” would alter the primary data. A grant amount is the listed size of the grant, not a certification of full flow.

The source is a living page and does not show a publication date for each roster update in its content. This note uses September 16, 2026 as the honest date of consultation, while keeping September 9 as the target day of the editorial batch. That difference prevents manufacturing a historical date that HUD Exchange does not print in the document.

In sum, the roster allows separating five recent Puerto Rico pots: $10,005,815,230 from the 2017 cycle, $8,285,284,000 CDBG-MIT, $166,312,000 for 2022 events, $184,626,000 for 2020 events, and $36,424,000 for 2019 events. It does not prove disbursement, expenditure, completed work, or irregularity. Its verifiable function is to identify active grants, amounts, contacts, and grantee sites.
