I have determined that the damage in
certain areas of the State of Washington
resulting from severe winter storms, flooding,
landslides, and mudslides during the period
of January 30 to February 22, 2017, is of
sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant
a major disaster declaration under the Robert

‘‘Stafford Act’’). Therefore, I declare that such
a major disaster exists in the State of

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.
Consistent with the requirement that Federal
assistance be supplemental, any Federal
funds provided under the Stafford Act for
