The next round of grants for fortified roofs in Louisiana will open on Wednesday.
Commissioner Tim Temple of the Louisiana Department of Insurance made the announcement in a press conference.
Temple also stated that his department is working to create insurance discounts for the fortified roofs, which improve structural integrity and increase water and wind resistance.
Grant recipients will be randomly selected through a lottery system. This time around, homeowners have to register to participate in the lottery, which will award 1,000 grants.
