I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State of North Carolina resulting from Tropical Storm Helene beginning on September 25, 2024, and continuing, is of sufficient severity and magnitude that special cost-sharing arrangements are warranted regarding Federal funds provided under the Robert T.
