panel(s) affected and the effective date 

of the change. The listing also identifies: 

(1) Those panels on which the Special 

Flood Hazard Areas have not been 

changed or have been changed only to 

incorporate the Letters of Map Change 

issued before the effective date; and (2) 

those panels for which a Flood 

Insurance Rate Map is produced for the 

first time, resulting only in changes to 

flood insurance and floodplain 

management requirements in the 

affected community. Future notices of 

changes to NFIP maps will be made 

available approximately every 6 months.

I have determined that the emergency 

conditions in certain areas of the State of 

Minnesota resulting from severe storms and 

flooding beginning on March 16, 2009, and

magnitude to warrant an emergency 

declaration under the Robert T. Stafford

Act’’). Therefore, I declare that such an 

emergency exists in the State of Minnesota. 

You are authorized to provide appropriate 

assistance for required emergency measures, 

authorized under Title V of the Stafford Act, 

to save lives and to protect property and 

public health and safety, and to lessen or 

avert the threat of a catastrophe in the 

designated areas. Specifically, you are 

authorized to provide assistance for 

emergency protective measures (Category B), 

including direct Federal assistance, under the 

Public Assistance program. This assistance 

excludes regular time costs for subgrantees’ 

regular employees. In addition, you are 

authorized to provide such other forms of 

assistance under Title V of the Stafford Act 

as you may deem appropriate. 

Consistent with the requirement that 

Federal assistance is supplemental, any 

Federal funds provided under the Stafford 

Act for Public Assistance will be limited to 

75 percent of the total eligible costs. 

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 emergency 

assistance and administrative expenses. 

Further, you are authorized to make 

changes to this declaration to the extent 

allowable under the Stafford Act.
