SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter
dated August 18, 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 Minnesota, resulting from severe storms, straight line winds and
tornadoes on July 9, 1995 through and including July 14, 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 Minnesota.
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. Individual Assistance and/or Hazard Mitigation may
be added at a later date, if requested and warranted. Consistent
with the requirement that Federal assistance be supplemental, any
Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for Public Assistance
or 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 David Skarosi 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 Minnesota
to have been affected adversely by this declared major disaster:
Becker, Beltrami, Clay, Clearwater, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca,
Kittson, Mahnomen, Otter Tail, St. Louis, Wadena, and White Earth
Reservation for Public Assistance.
