Putnam County Executive MaryEllen Odell says the U.S. Small Business Administrations website to apply for Economic Disaster Injury loans crashed under the pressure of too many applicants.  Putnam was among the first counties in New York State in which these Economic Injury Disaster loans from the SBA were made available.  Putnam County small business owners who had difficulty applying are urged try a new link and follow the directions carefully to upload all the necessary documents.  Small business owners are also encourage to try filing early in the morning or later at night.   The link to the new application page with instructions for uploading documents: https://disasterloan.sba.gov/apply-for-disaster-loan/index.html.
