Seminole Tribe of Florida; Amendment No. 3 to Notice of a Major
Disaster Declaration
AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice amends the notice of a major disaster for the
Seminole Tribe of Florida (FEMA-4341-DR), dated September 27, 2017, and
related determinations.
DATES: This amendment was issued July 12, 2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dean Webster, Office of Response and
Recovery, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW,
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2833.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter
dated July 12, 2018, the President amended the cost-sharing
arrangements regarding Federal funds provided under the authority of
the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42
U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the ``Stafford Act''), in a letter to Brock Long,
Administrator, Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department of
Homeland Security, under Executive Order 12148, as follows:
I have determined that the damage to the Seminole Tribe of
Florida resulting from Hurricane Irma during the period of September
4 to October 4, 2017, is of sufficient severity and magnitude that
special cost sharing arrangements are warranted regarding Federal
funds provided under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the ``Stafford
Act'').
Therefore, I amend my declaration of September 27, 2017, to
authorize Federal funds for all categories of Public Assistance at
90 percent of total eligible costs, except for assistance previously
approved at 100 percent.
This adjustment to State and local cost sharing applies only to
Public Assistance costs and direct Federal assistance eligible for
such adjustments under the law. The Robert T. Stafford Disaster
Relief and Emergency Assistance Act specifically prohibits a similar
adjustment for funds provided for Other Needs Assistance (Section
408) and the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (Section 404). These
funds will continue to be reimbursed at 75 percent of total eligible
costs.

are to be used for reporting and drawing funds: 97.030, Community
Disaster Loans; 97.031, Cora Brown Fund; 97.032, Crisis Counseling;
