I have determined that the damage to the lands associated with
the San Apache Tribe resulting from the Watch Fire during the period
of July 10 to July 17, 2024, is of sufficient severity and magnitude
to warrant a major disaster declaration under the Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.
(the ``Stafford Act''). Therefore, I declare that such a major
disaster exists for the San Carlos Apache Tribe.

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 Individual Assistance, Public

supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for
Hazard Mitigation and Other Needs Assistance under section 408 will

provided under the Stafford Act for Public Assistance also will be
limited to 75 percent of the total eligible costs, with the
exception of projects that meet the eligibility criteria for a
higher Federal cost-sharing percentage in FEMA's Public Assistance
Mitigation Cost Share Incentives Policy.
Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration
for the approved assistance to the extent allowable under the
Stafford Act.
