I'm posting out of the same ignorance as everyone else, offering another "maybe this is what's happening" perception:
Maybe...
the Fed will make immediate funds available for immediate reconstruction of the bridge.
AND the Fed will be doing the investigation to see who is actually legally responsible for refunding the Fed that money.
BECAUSE investigating it first, then going after insurance companies, and courts, and appeals, and so on and so forth means delays in getting it rebuilt.
BUT they want it rebuilt ASAP, and want to cut through all that red tape. They expect to be recompensated, but the funding has to be made immediately available, FIRST.
That's my thoughts on the whys and wherefores.
