I have determined that the damage in 

certain areas of the State of Oregon resulting 

from a severe winter storm, flooding, 

landslides, and mudslides during the period 

of January 17–21, 2012, is of sufficient 

severity and magnitude to warrant a major

‘‘Stafford Act’’). Therefore, I declare that such 

a major disaster exists in the State of Oregon.

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 is 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. 

Further, you are authorized to make 

changes to this declaration for the approved 

assistance to the extent allowable under the 

Stafford Act.

Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice that
