SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated 

February 6, 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 Arkansas 

resulting from a severe winter storm 

beginning on January 26, 2009, and 

continuing, 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 Arkansas. 

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, and 

any other forms of assistance under the 

Stafford Act that you deem appropriate. 

Direct Federal assistance is authorized. 

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 

requested and 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
