regular time costs for subgrantees’ regular 

employees. In addition, you are authorized to 

provide such other forms of assistance under

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

allowable under the Stafford Act.
