Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 193 / Friday, October 6, 2017 / Notices 
amended the cost-sharing arrangements 
regarding Federal funds provided under 
the authority of the Robert T. Stafford 
Disaster Relief and Emergency 
Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. 
(the ‘‘Stafford Act’’), in a letter to Brock 
Long, Administrator, Federal Emergency 
Management Agency, Department of 
Homeland Security, under Executive 
Order 12148, as follows: 
I have determined that the damage in 
certain areas of the Commonwealth of Puerto 
Rico resulting from Hurricane Maria 
beginning on September 17, 2017, and 
continuing, is of sufficient severity and 
magnitude that special cost sharing 
arrangements are warranted regarding 
Federal funds provided under the Robert T. 
Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 
Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the 
‘‘Stafford Act’’). 
Therefore, I amend my declaration of 
September 20, 2017, to authorize a 100 
percent Federal cost share for debris removal 
and emergency protective measures, 
including direct Federal assistance, for 180 
days from the date of the declaration. 
This adjustment to State and local cost 
sharing applies only to Public Assistance 
costs and direct Federal assistance eligible 
for such adjustments under the law. The 
Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and 
Emergency Assistance Act specifically 
prohibits a similar adjustment for funds 
provided for Other Needs Assistance (Section 
408), and the Hazard Mitigation Grant 
Program (Section 404). These funds will 
continue to be reimbursed at 75 percent of 
total eligible costs.

conditions in the territory of the U.S. Virgin

magnitude to warrant an emergency
