Kentucky; Amendment No. 4 to Notice of a Major Disaster
Declaration
AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice amends the notice of a major disaster for the
Commonwealth of Kentucky (FEMA-4630-DR), dated December 12, 2021, and
related determinations.
DATES: This amendment was issued December 15, 2021.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dean Webster, Office of Response and
Recovery, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW,
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2833.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter
dated December 15, 2021, the President 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 Deanne
Criswell, 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 Kentucky resulting from severe storms, straight-line
winds, flooding, and tornadoes beginning on December 10, 2021, 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'').
[[Page 6191]]
Therefore, I amend my declaration of December 12, 2021, to
authorize Federal funds for debris removal and emergency protective
measures, including direct Federal assistance, at 100 percent of the
total eligible costs for a 30-day period from the date of
declaration.
This adjustment to commonwealth 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.
(The following Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Numbers (CFDA)
are to be used for reporting and drawing funds: 97.030, Community
Disaster Loans; 97.031, Cora Brown Fund; 97.032, Crisis Counseling;
97.033, Disaster Legal Services; 97.034, Disaster Unemployment
Assistance (DUA); 97.046, Fire Management Assistance Grant; 97.048,
