SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter 
dated August 2, 1994, the President declared a major disaster under the 
authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 
Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.), as follows:

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State 
of Washington, resulting from the continuing effects of the warm 
water currents known as El Nino on the 1994 Coho and Chinook salmon 
fishing season on May 1, 1994, through October 31, 1994, is of 
sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant a major disaster 
declaration under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and 
Emergency Assistance Act (``the Stafford Act''). I, therefore, 
declare that such a major disaster exists in the State of 
Washington.
    You are authorized to provide Disaster Unemployment Assistance 
in the designated areas pursuant to Section 410 of the Stafford Act. 
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 Disaster Unemployment Assistance and 
administrative expenses in the designated areas.

    The time period prescribed for the implementation of section 
310(a), Priority to Certain Applications for Public Facility and Public 
Housing Assistance, 42 U.S.C. 5153, shall be for a period not to exceed 
six months after the date of this declaration.
    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the authority vested in the 
Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency under Executive 
Order 12148, I hereby appoint Leonard F. Lombardi of the Federal 
Emergency Management Agency to act as the Federal Coordinating Officer 
for this declared disaster.
    I do hereby determine the following areas of the State of 
Washington to have been affected adversely by this declared major 
disaster:

Disaster Unemployment Assistance only to the Counties of Clallum, 
Grays Harbor, Jefferson, Pacific and Wahkiakum.
