SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated 

February 15, 2009, the President issued 

a major disaster declaration under the 

authority of the Robert T. Stafford 

Disaster Relief and Emergency 

Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121–5207 

(the Stafford Act), as follows: 

I have determined that the damage in 

certain areas of the State of Oklahoma 

resulting from severe storms and tornadoes 

during the period of February 10–11, 2009, 

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– 

5207 (the Stafford Act). Therefore, I declare 

that such a major disaster exists in the State 

of Oklahoma. 

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, Hazard 

Mitigation throughout the State, and any 

other forms of assistance under the Stafford 

Act that you deem appropriate. Consistent 

with the requirement that Federal assistance 

is supplemental, any Federal funds provided 

under the Stafford Act for Hazard Mitigation 

and Other Needs Assistance 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), 

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.
