SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated 

November 15, 2004, the President 

declared a major disaster under the 

authority of the Robert T. Stafford 

Disaster Relief and Emergency 

Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121–5206 

(the Stafford Act), as follows:

I have determined that the damage in 

certain areas of the State of Delaware, 

resulting from severe storms, tornadoes, and 

flooding from the remnants of Hurricane 

Jeanne, on September 28–October 2, 2004, 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 Delaware. 

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 Public 

Assistance in the designated areas; and 

Hazard Mitigation throughout the State. 

Consistent with the requirement that Federal 

assistance be supplemental, any Federal 

funds provided under the Stafford Act for 

Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation will 

be limited to 75 percent of the total eligible 

costs. If Other Needs Assistance under 

Section 408 of the Stafford Act is later 

warranted, Federal funding 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 Federal Emergency Management 

Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice that 

pursuant to the authority vested in the 

Under Secretary for Emergency 

Preparedness and Response, Department 

of Homeland Security, under Executive 

Order 12148, as amended, James N.
