FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dean Webster, Office of Response and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter 
dated April 8, 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 Connecticut resulting from a severe winter storm and snowstorm 
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 Connecticut.
    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, Albert L. Lewis, of FEMA is 
appointed to act as the Federal Coordinating Officer for this major 
disaster.
    The following areas of the State of Connecticut have been 
designated as adversely affected by this major disaster:

    New London, Tolland, and Windham Counties for Public Assistance.
    New London, Tolland, and Windham Counties for snow assistance 
under the Public Assistance program for any continuous 48-hour 
period during or proximate the incident period.
    All areas within the State of Connecticut are eligible for 
assistance under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program.
