SUMMARY: This is a notice of the Presidential declaration of a major 
disaster for the State of Maine (FEMA-4208-DR), dated March 12, 2015, 
and related determinations.

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 March 12, 2015, the President issued a major disaster declaration 
under the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and 
Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the ``Stafford 
Act''), as follows:

I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State of 
Maine resulting from a severe winter storm, snowstorm, and flooding 
during the period of January 26-28, 2015, 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 in the State of Maine.
    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 Federal disaster assistance and 
administrative expenses.
    You are authorized to provide Public Assistance in the 
designated areas and Hazard Mitigation throughout the State. You are 
further authorized to provide snow assistance under the Public 
Assistance program for a limited period of time during or proximate 
to the incident period. Consistent with the requirement that Federal 
assistance be supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the 
Stafford Act for Hazard Mitigation will be limited to 75 percent of 
the total eligible costs. Federal funds 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 
under the Public Assistance Alternative Procedures Pilot Program for 
Debris Removal implemented pursuant to section 428 of the Stafford 
Act.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration 
for the approved assistance to the extent allowable under the 
Stafford Act.

    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice 
that pursuant to the authority vested in the Administrator, under 
Executive Order 12148, as amended, James N. Russo, of FEMA is appointed 
to act as the Federal Coordinating Officer for this major disaster.
    The following areas of the State of Maine have been designated as 
adversely affected by this major disaster:

    Androscoggin, Cumberland, and York Counties for Public 
Assistance.
    Androscoggin, Cumberland, and York Counties for snow assistance 
under the Public Assistance program for any continuous 48-hour 
period during or proximate the incident period.
