SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter
dated March 14, 1995, 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 South Dakota, resulting from severe winter storms on January 13,
1995, through and including February 10, 1995, 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 South Dakota.
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 David P. Grier IV 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 South
Dakota to have been affected adversely by this declared major disaster:
The counties of Aurora, Buffalo, Campbell, Corson, Dewey,
Edmunds, Faulk, Haakon, Hand, Hughes, Hyde, Jerauld, Jones, Lyman,
