SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated

declared a major disaster under the 

authority of the Robert T. Stafford

Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121–5206 

(the Stafford Act), as follows: 

I have determined that the damage in 

certain areas of the State of Indiana, resulting 

from a tornado and severe storms on 

November 6, 2005, 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. 5121–5206 (the Stafford Act). 

Therefore, I declare that such a major disaster 

exists in the State of Indiana. 

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 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 the Other Needs 

Assistance under Section 408 of the Stafford 

Act will be limited to 75 percent of the total 

eligible costs. If Public Assistance and 

Hazard Mitigation are later requested and 

warranted, Federal funds provided under 

these programs 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

Notice of a Major Disaster Declaration 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice amends the notice 

of a major disaster for the State of 

Louisiana (FEMA–1607–DR), dated

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated 

October 26, 2005, the President 

amended the cost-sharing arrangements 

concerning Federal funds provided 

under the authority of the Robert T. 

Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 

Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121–5206 

(Stafford Act), in a letter to R. David 

Paulison, Acting Director, Federal 

Emergency Management Agency, 

Department of Homeland Security, as 

follows: 

I have determined that the damage in 

certain areas of the State of Louisiana 

resulting from Hurricane Rita, beginning on 

September 23, 2005, and continuing, is of 

sufficient severity and magnitude that special 

cost-sharing arrangements are warranted 

regarding Federal funds provided under the 

Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and 

Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121–

5206 (the Stafford Act). 

Therefore, I amend my declaration of 

September 24, 2005, to authorize Federal 

funds for Public Assistance at 90 percent of 

total eligible costs, except assistance 

previously approved at 100 percent. 

This adjustment to State and local cost 

sharing applies only to Public Assistance 

costs and direct Federal assistance eligible 

for such adjustments under the law. The law 

specifically prohibits a similar adjustment for 

funds provided to States for Other Needs 

Assistance (Section 408) and the Hazard 

Mitigation Grant Program (Section 404). 

These funds will continue to be reimbursed 

at 75 percent of total eligible costs. 

Please notify the Governor of Louisiana 

and the Federal Coordinating Officer of this 

amendment to my major disaster declaration. 

This cost share is effective as of the 

date of the President’s major disaster 

declaration.
