SUMMARY: FEMA gives notice that the countywide per capita impact

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In assessing damages for area designations
under 44 CFR 206.40(b), FEMA uses a countywide per capita indicator to
evaluate the impact of the disaster at the county level. FEMA will
adjust the countywide per capita impact indicator under the Public
Assistance program to reflect annual changes in the Consumer Price
Index for All Urban Consumers published by the Department of Labor.
FEMA gives notice of an increase in the countywide per capita
impact indicator to $4.60 for all disasters with an incident start date
on or after October 1, 2023.
FEMA bases the adjustment on an increase in the Consumer Price
Index for All Urban Consumers of 3.7 percent for the 12-month period
that ended in August 2023. The Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S.
Department of Labor released the information on September 13, 2023.
