    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    The notice is hereby given that, in a letter dated March 13, 2001, the President amended the cost-sharing arrangements concerning Federal funds provided under the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121, as amended by the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, Public Law 106-390, 114 Stat. 1552 (2000), in a letter to Joe M. Allbaugh, Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, as follows:

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State of Oklahoma resulting from a severe winter ice storm beginning on December 25, 2000, and continuing through January 10, 2001, is of sufficient severity and magnitude that the provision of additional Federal assistance to ensure public health and safety is warranted under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 (Stafford Act).

    Therefore, I amend the major disaster declaration of January 5, 2001, to provide that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) may reimburse 100 percent of the costs of debris removal through July 6, 2001. This adjustment of the cost share may be provided to all counties under the major disaster declaration. You may extend this assistance for an additional period of time, if requested and warranted.

    Please notify the Governor of Oklahoma and the Federal Coordinating Officer of this amendment to my major disaster declaration.
