Puerto Rico Governor Ricardo Rossello, characterising Hurricane Maria as an "unprecedented disaster" for the island, said he was satisfied with the administration's relief efforts and called Trump's performance "excellent".
"They have responded very quickly," he told Reuters news agency by telephone, adding that he has spoken often with the president since the storm hit. He cited swift disaster declarations issued by Trump and a six-month waiver of FEMA's cost-sharing requirements.
"He has been very much concerned with the situation in Puerto Rico," Rossello said of Trump. "But they're conscious we still need more resources to the island."
US disaster-relief spending sufficient to last through mid-October has already been appropriated, White House budget chief Mick Mulvaney said.
