SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter
dated August 2, 1994, the President declared a major disaster under the

I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State
of Washington, resulting from the continuing effects of the warm
water currents known as El Nino on the 1994 Coho and Chinook salmon
fishing season on May 1, 1994, through October 31, 1994, 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
Washington.
You are authorized to provide Disaster Unemployment Assistance
in the designated areas pursuant to Section 410 of the Stafford Act.
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 Disaster Unemployment Assistance and
administrative expenses in the designated areas.
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 Leonard F. Lombardi 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
Washington to have been affected adversely by this declared major
disaster:
