PATHH Update: Letter From Tom Vilsack USDA
EXCERPT FROM LETTER: USDA’s Farm Service Agency and Forest Service worked together to ensure the program’s policies are equitable and will help as many as possible in the timber harvesting and hauling industry who have been affected by COVID-19. Initial payments of up to $2,000 per applicant have been made as applications have been made. Sign-up for the program closed last month and the remaining portion of the $200 million will be distributed among the eligible applicants in the coming weeks.
