SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is

hereby given that, in a letter dated June

23, 1998, 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 et seq.), as follows:

I have determined that the damage in

certain areas of the State of Minnesota,

resulting from severe storms, straight-line

winds and tornadoes on May 15–30, 1998, is

of sufficient severity and magnitude to

warrant a major disaster declaration under

the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and

Emergency Assistance Act, P.L. 93–288, as

amended (‘‘the Stafford Act’’). I, therefore,

declare that such a major disaster exists in

the State of Minnesota.

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 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.

The time period prescribed for the

implementation of section 310(a),

Priority to Certain Applications for

Public Facility and Public Housing

Assistance, 42 U.S.C. 5153, shall be for

a period not to exceed six months after

the date of this declaration.

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 Lawrence L. Bailey of

the Federal Emergency Management

Agency to act as the Federal

Coordinating Officer for this declared

disaster.

I do hereby determine the following

areas of the State of Minnesota to have

been affected adversely by this declared

major disaster:

Anoka, Blue Earth, Carver, Dakota,

Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott, and Washington

Counties for Public Assistance.

All counties within the State of

Minnesota are eligible to apply for

assistance under the Hazard Mitigation

Grant Program.
