I have determined that the damage in
certain areas of the State of Mississippi
resulting from Hurricane Gustav during the
period of August 28 to September 8, 2008, is
of sufficient severity and magnitude to
warrant a major disaster declaration under
the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and

5207 (the Stafford Act). Therefore, I declare
that such a major disaster exists in the State

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, Hazard
Mitigation throughout the State, and any
other forms of assistance under the Stafford
Act that you deem appropriate. Direct
Federal assistance is authorized. Consistent
