Notice is
hereby given that, in a letter dated
January 25, 2007, 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. 5121–5206
(the Stafford Act), in a letter to R. David
Paulison, Director, Federal Emergency
Management Agency, Department of
Homeland Security, as follows:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I have determined that the damage in
certain areas of the State of Alabama
resulting from Hurricane Katrina during the
period of August 29 to September 26, 2005,
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.
5121–5206 (the Stafford Act).
Therefore, I amend my declaration of
August 29, 2005, as amended on September
1, 2005, to authorize Federal funds for all
categories of Public Assistance at 90 percent
of total eligible costs relating to this disaster,
except for assistance previously approved at
100 percent.
This adjustment to State and local cost
sharing applies only to Public Assistance
costs and direct Federal assistance eligible
for such adjustments under applicable law.
The Stafford Act specifically prohibits a
similar adjustment for funds provided to
States 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.
This cost share is effective as of the
date of the President’s major disaster
declaration.

Assistance Numbers (CFDA) are to be used
