(the Stafford Act), as follows:
I have determined that the emergency
conditions in the State of Mississippi
resulting from Hurricane Gustav beginning
on August 28, 2008, and continuing, are of
sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant
an emergency 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
an emergency exists in the State of
Mississippi.
You are authorized to provide appropriate
assistance for required emergency measures,
authorized under Title V of the Stafford Act,
to save lives, protect property and public
health and safety, or to lessen or avert the
threat of a catastrophe in the designated
areas. Specifically, you are authorized to
provide assistance for emergency protective
measures (Category B), including direct
Federal assistance, under the Public
Assistance program. This assistance excludes
regular time costs for subgrantees’ regular
employees. In addition, you are authorized to
provide such other forms of assistance under
Title V of the Stafford Act as you may deem
appropriate.
Consistent with the requirement that
Federal assistance be supplemental, any
Federal funds provided under the Stafford
Act for Public Assistance will be limited to
75 percent of the total eligible costs. 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 emergency assistance

Further, you are authorized to make
changes to this declaration to the extent
allowable under the Stafford Act.
