SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter
dated October 27, 1995, the President declared a major disaster under
the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency

I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State
of Florida, resulting from severe storms and flooding on October 13,
1995 and continuing, 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 Florida.
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, Public
Assistance and Hazard Mitigation Assistance in the designated areas.
Consistent with the requirement that Federal assistance be
supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for
Public Assistance or Hazard Mitigation will be limited to 75 percent
of the total eligible costs.
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 Glenn C. Woodard 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 Florida
