据广播电视台BFMTV周二报道，法国当局已将南部埃罗省的45个市镇认定为自然灾害区，此前该地区在今年秋季早些时候遭遇强降雨和洪涝灾害。该法令涵盖河流洪水、地表径流及相关泥石流造成的损失。
Authorities in France have declared 45 municipalities in the southern Herault department to be natural disaster areas following heavy rainfall and flooding that hit the region earlier this autumn, broadcaster BFMTV reported on Tuesday. The decree covers damage caused by river flooding, surface water runoff and associated mudslides.
这一认定使拥有保险的居民和财产所有者能够根据法国自然灾害保险计划获得赔偿。
The recognition allows residents and property owners with insurance coverage to benefit from compensation under France's natural disaster insurance scheme.
这45个市镇包括蒙彼利埃、卡斯特尔诺勒莱兹、拉特、吕内尔、佩罗勒、拜亚尔格、卡斯特里、格拉贝尔、瑞维尼亚克、圣让德韦达、旺达尔格和圣热利迪费斯克。
The 45 municipalities include Montpellier, Castelnau-le-Lez, Lattes, Lunel, Perols, Baillargues, Castries, Grabels, Juvignac, Saint-Jean-de-Vedas, Vendargues and Saint-Gely-du-Fesc.
另有10个市镇的申请仍在审核中，当局要求补充报告后再作决定。
Applications from 10 other municipalities remain under review, with authorities requesting additional reports before making a decision.
