SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated

an emergency 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 emergency 

conditions in the State of Florida resulting 

from Tropical Storm Fay beginning on 

August 18, 2008, and continuing, are of 

sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant 

an emergency 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 

an emergency exists in the State of Florida. 

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 debris 

removal and emergency protective measures 

(Categories A and 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 be 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. 

The Federal Emergency Management 

Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice that 

pursuant to the authority vested in the 

Administrator, Department of Homeland
