Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval Wednesday dispatched a team to begin estimating the cost of damage from flooding that wiped out parts of a vital interstate highway and swamped parts of Clark County and a southern Nevada Indian reservation.
Sandoval also declared a state of emergency to allow local governments to qualify for state and federal help after Monday’s storm.
Monsoonal moisture combined with remnants of Tropical Storm Norbert to dump water throughout the Southwest earlier this week.
Clark County officials said that damage included at least 30 flooded homes in nearby Overton and crumbled pavement on a nearly 80-kilometer portion of Interstate 15 that could be closed for days.
