    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State 
of Mississippi, resulting from Hurricane Dennis beginning on July 
10, 2005, 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 Mississippi.
    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 assistance for debris removal and 
emergency protective measures (Categories A and B) under the Public 
Assistance program in the designated areas, Hazard Mitigation 
throughout the State, and any other forms of assistance under the 
Stafford Act you may deem appropriate subject to completion of 
Preliminary Damage Assessments (PDAs), unless you determine the 
incident is of such unusual severity and magnitude that PDAs are not 
required to determine the need for supplemental Federal assistance 
pursuant to 44 CFR 206.33(d). Direct Federal assistance is 
authorized.
    Consistent with the requirement that Federal assistance be 
supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for

excludes debris removal. Federal funding will remain at 75 percent. 
If Other Needs Assistance under Section 408 of the Stafford Act is 
later warranted, Federal funding 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 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice
