An additional $5.1 million of federal money will be going to Robeson County for Hurricane Matthew cleanup. FEMA is giving the money to the Housing Authority of Lumberton and the Lumbee Tribe.

The Lumbee Tribe will receive $1,162,454 to repair an earthen dam and spillway at the Lumbee Cultural Center near Pembroke” (para. 4). It is unknown when Robeson County will receive the money.
