SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

hereby given that, in a letter dated 

January 30, 2008, the President declared 

a major disaster under the authority of 

the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief 

and Emergency 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 severe storms and flooding beginning 

on January 7, 2008, 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. 5121–5206 (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, Hazard 

Mitigation throughout the State, and any 

other forms of assistance under the Stafford 

Act that you deem appropriate. Consistent 

with the requirement that Federal assistance 

be supplemental, any Federal funds provided 

under the Stafford Act for Hazard Mitigation 

and Other Needs Assistance will be limited 

to 75 percent of the total eligible costs. If 

Public Assistance is later requested and 

warranted, Federal funds provided under 

that program also will be limited to 75 

percent of the total eligible costs, except for 

any particular projects that are eligible for a 

higher Federal cost-sharing percentage under 

the FEMA Public Assistance Pilot Program 

instituted pursuant to 6 U.S.C. 777. 

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 

the date of this declaration. 

The Federal Emergency Management 

Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice that 

pursuant to the authority vested in the 

Administrator, under Executive Order 

12148, as amended, Michael H. Smith, 

of FEMA is appointed to act as the
