I have determined that the damage in

certain areas of the Federated States of

a major disaster exists in the Federated States

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 emergency

protective measures (Category B) under the

Public Assistance program and Hazard

Mitigation in the designated areas, and any

other forms of assistance under the Stafford

Act you may deem appropriate. Consistent

with the requirement that Federal assistance

be supplemental, any Federal funds provided

under the Stafford Act for Public Assistance

or Hazard Mitigation will be limited to 75

percent of the total eligible costs.

Notice is hereby given that pursuant

to the authority vested in the Director of

the Federal Emergency Management

Agency under Executive Order 12148, I

hereby appoint William L. Carwile, III of
