SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter
dated March 3, 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 Alabama, resulting from severe winter storms, freezing, and
flooding on January 16-February 14, 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 Alabama.
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 Public 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 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 J. Rolando Sarabia 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 Alabama
to have been affected adversely by this declared major disaster:
Colbert, Cullman, Dekalb, Franklin, Lauderdale, Lawrence, Limestone,
Marshall and Winston Counties for Public Assistance.
