Federal assistance program may, if so

disaster, such administrative conditions
for assistance as would otherwise
prevent the giving of assistance under

support agencies may request relief
under the Stafford Act, on May 28,
2020, OCSE published Dear Colleague
Letter 20–04: Flexibilities for State and
