SUMMARY: This is a notice of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is
hereby given that, in a letter dated
February 3, 2006, 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 Nevada, resulting
from severe storms and flooding from
December 31, 2005, through and including
January 4, 2006, 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 Nevada.
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 Public
Assistance in the designated areas and
Hazard Mitigation throughout the State, and
any other forms of assistance under the
Stafford Act you may deem appropriate.
Consistent with the requirement that Federal
assistance be supplemental, any Federal
funds provided under the Stafford Act for
Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation will
be limited to 75 percent of the total eligible
costs. 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 that
