SUMMARY:
I have determined that the damage in
certain areas of the State of Alaska resulting
from an earthquake on November 30, 2018,
is of sufficient severity and magnitude to
warrant a major disaster declaration under

that such a major disaster exists in the State

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 Individual
Assistance and Public Assistance in the
designated areas and Hazard Mitigation

requirement that Federal assistance be
supplemental, any Federal funds provided
under the Stafford Act for Hazard Mitigation
and Other Needs Assistance will be limited
to 75 percent of the total eligible costs.
Federal funds provided under the Stafford
Act for Public Assistance also will be limited
to 75 percent of the total eligible costs, with
the exception of projects that meet the
