State law provides for a disaster contingency fund that can be used if the demands placed on funds regularly appropriated to state and local agencies are unreasonably great for coping with a particular disaster. Senate Bill 1339 amends the Government Code to authorize fund disbursements to a state or local agency to provide assistance to producers of agricultural products affected by or recovering from a disaster caused by severe drought, wildfire, flood, storm, or hurricane.
