Clean-Up Underway At Jersey Shore

Trenton, NJ - New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine has declared states of emergency in six counties battered by the recent nor'easter. 

Fox 29's Steve Keeley reported from Altantic City, where the boardwalk is torn-up and you can actually see waves crashing through the boardwalk openings.

Keeley said officials are expected to have their storm damage estimates by noon Monday. Beach erosion will most likely be the biggest cost..

The six counties, Atlantic, Burlington, Cape May, Cumberland, Monmouth and Ocean are among the areas with the most damage.

The declaration made Sunday afternoon could open the way for money from the Federal Emergency Management Agency to help pay for repairs.

The remnants of Hurricane Ida pounded the state for more than three days and caused massive beach erosion, moderate to major flooding and scattered power outages throughout the state.
