Oregon; Amendment No. 6 to Notice of a Major Disaster Declaration

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, Homeland Security (DHS).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice amends the notice of a major disaster for the 
State of Oregon (FEMA-4562-DR), dated September 15, 2020, and related 
determinations.

DATES: This amendment was issued June 29, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dean Webster, Office of Response and 
Recovery, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW, 
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2833.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter 
dated June 29, 2021, the President amended the cost-sharing 
arrangements regarding Federal funds provided under the authority of 
the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 
U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the ``Stafford Act''), in a letter to Deanne 
Criswell, Administrator, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 
Department of Homeland Security, under Executive Order 12148, as 
follows:

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State 
of Oregon resulting from wildfires and straight-line winds during 
the period of September 7 to November 3, 2020, 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 et seq. (the ``Stafford Act'').
    Therefore, I amend the declaration of September 15, 2020, to 
authorize a 100 percent Federal cost share for debris removal and 
emergency protective measures, including direct Federal assistance, 
under the Public Assistance program for a continuous period of 30 
days established by the State of Oregon.
    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 Robert T. Stafford Disaster 
Relief and Emergency Assistance Act specifically prohibits a similar 
adjustment for funds provided 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.

(The following Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Numbers (CFDA) 
are to be used for reporting and drawing funds: 97.030, Community 
Disaster Loans; 97.031, Cora Brown Fund; 97.032, Crisis Counseling; 
97.033, Disaster Legal Services; 97.034, Disaster Unemployment 
Assistance (DUA); 97.046, Fire Management Assistance Grant; 97.048, 
Disaster Housing Assistance to Individuals and Households In 
Presidentially Declared Disaster Areas; 97.049, Presidentially 
Declared Disaster Assistance--Disaster Housing Operations for 
Individuals and Households; 97.050, Presidentially Declared Disaster 
Assistance to Individuals and Households--Other Needs; 97.036, 
Disaster Grants--Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared 
Disasters); 97.039, Hazard Mitigation Grant.)
