as amended by the Disaster Mitigation

Act of 2000, Pub. L. No. 106–390, 114

Stat. 1552 (2000), as follows:

I have determined that the damage in

certain areas of the State of Arkansas,

resulting from a severe winter ice storm

beginning on December 12, 2000, 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, et seq., as amended by

the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, Pub. L.

No. 106–390, 114 Stat. 1552 (2000) (Stafford

Act), I, therefore, declare that such a major

disaster exists in the State of Arkansas.

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 and assistance for debris removal

(Category A) and emergency protective

measures (Category B), including direct

Federal assistance, under Public Assistance

in the designated areas and any other forms

of assistance under the Stafford Act you may

deem appropriate subject to completion of

Preliminary Damage Assessments (PDAs).

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. If Hazard

Mitigation is later determined to be

warranted, Federal funds provided under

that program 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),
