In wake of the Deepwater BP Oil Spill, Economic Injury Disaster Loans are available to help those affected by the imposed moratorium.

Economic Injury Disaster Loans are working capital loans to help small businesses, small agricultural cooperatives and most private, non-profit organizations of all sizes meet their ordinary and necessary financial obligations that cannot be met as a direct result of the disaster. These loans are intended to assist through the disaster recovery period.

For more information, contact SBA Disaster Assistance Customer Service Center at (800)659-2955 or disastercustomerservice@sba.gov

The closest location to apply in person is in Houma, at the SBA Business Recovery Center TPCG Government Tower 8026 Main Street. That center is open Monday through Friday 8 a.m.-5 p.m.
