 4 There is hereby established the disaster-related latent damage recovery

 9 owned roads, bridges, drainage and flood mitigation systems, electrical
 10 and mechanical systems and communication systems, and any ancillary
 11 infrastructure necessary for the safe operation of the components there-

 13 governor of the state of New York made a declaration of a state of emer-

 21 municipalities and for the issuance of grants authorized by this section
 22 within available appropriations. Application for such grants shall be
 23 submitted no more than seven years, but no less than one year, after the

 6 4. Funding for such program shall consist of all revenue received
 7 pursuant to an appropriation thereto, and all other monies appropriated,
 8 credited or transferred from any other source pursuant to law. Nothing
 9 in this section shall be deemed to prevent the state from receiving
