declared a major disaster under the 

authority of the Robert T. Stafford

I have determined that the damage in 

certain areas of the State of Ohio, resulting 

from severe storms and flooding beginning 

on September 8, 2004, and continuing, is of 

sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant 

a major disaster declaration under the Robert 

T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 

Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121–5206 (the 

Stafford Act). Therefore, I declare that such 

a major disaster exists in the State of Ohio. 

In order to provide Federal assistance, you 

are hereby authorized to allocate from funds 

available for these purposes such amounts as 

you find necessary for Federal disaster 

assistance and administrative expenses. 

You are authorized to provide Individual 

Assistance in the designated areas; and 

Hazard Mitigation throughout the State, and 

any other forms of assistance under the 

Stafford Act you may deem appropriate.

assistance be supplemental, any Federal 

funds provided under the Stafford Act for 

Hazard Mitigation and the Other Needs 

Assistance under Section 408 of the Stafford 

Act will be limited to 75 percent of the total 

eligible costs. If Public Assistance is later 

requested and warranted, Federal funds 

provided under that program will also be 

limited to 75 percent of the total eligible 

costs. 

Further, you are authorized to make 

changes to this declaration to the extent 

allowable under the Stafford Act.

The time period prescribed for the 

implementation of section 310(a),

a period not to exceed six months after
