SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a latter
dated June 13, 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
Commonwealth of Kentucky, resulting from tornadoes, severe wind and
hail storms, torrential rain and flooding on May 13-19, 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 Commonwealth of
Kentucky.
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 in the designated areas. Consistent
with the requirement that Federal assistance be supplemental, any
Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for Public Assistance
and 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 Jose Bravo 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 Kentucky
to have been affected adversely by this declared major disaster:
Mercer County for Individual Assistance and Hazard Mitigation.
Bath, Clark, Hardin, Jessamine, Meade, Montgomery, and Rowan
Counties for Individual Assistance, Public Assistance and Hazard
Mitigation.

Taylor Counties for Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation.
