21, 1996 is of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant the
expansion of the incident period to May 15, 1996, and continuing,

rain and mudslides in the major disaster declaration of May 23,
1996, under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency

All other conditions specified in the original declaration
