provisions, the grant award process,

disaster recovery (CDBG–DR) funds for
necessary expenses related to disaster
relief, long-term recovery, restoration of
infrastructure and housing, and
economic revitalization in the most
impacted and distressed areas resulting
from a major disaster declared pursuant
to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief
and Emergency Assistance Act of 1974
(42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.) (Stafford Act),
due to Hurricane Sandy and other
eligible events in calendar years 2011,
2012, and 2013.
On March 1, 2013, the President
issued a sequestration order pursuant to
section 251A of the Balanced Budget
and Emergency Deficit Control Act, as
amended (2 U.S.C. 901a), and reduced
funding for CDBG–DR grants under the
Appropriations Act to $15.18 billion. To
date, a total of $15.1 billion has been
allocated or set aside: $13 billion in
response to Hurricane Sandy, $514
million in response to disasters
occurring in 2011 or 2012, $565 million
in response to 2013 disasters, and $1
billion set aside for the National
Disaster Resilience Competition. This
Notice advises the public of a third
allocation for 2013 disasters—$89.8
million is provided for the purpose of
assisting recovery in the most impacted
and distressed areas in Colorado, the
city of Chicago, Illinois, Cook County,
Illinois, and Du Page County, Illinois.
As the Appropriations Act requires
funds to be awarded directly to a state
or unit of general local government
(hereinafter, local government), the term
‘‘grantee’’ refers to any jurisdiction
receiving a direct award from HUD
under this Notice.
To comply with statutory direction
that funds be used for disaster-related
expenses in the most impacted and
distressed areas, HUD computes
allocations based on the best available
data that cover all the eligible affected
areas. Based on further review of the
impacts from Presidentially-declared
disasters that occurred in 2013, and
estimates of remaining unmet need, this
Notice provides the following awards:
