SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 303 of the Robert T. Stafford 
Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C. 
5144, authorizes the President of the United States to form emergency 
support teams of Federal personnel to be deployed to an area affected 
by major disaster or emergency. Section 403(a)(3)(B) of the Stafford 
Act provides that the President may authorize Federal Agencies to 
perform work on public or private lands essential to save lives and 
protect property, including search and rescue and emergency medical 
care, and other essential needs. The Post Katrina Emergency Management 
Reform Act (PKEMRA) codified the Urban Search and Rescue in the 
Homeland Security Act of 2002 (as amended), stating:

    There is in the Agency [FEMA] a system known as the National 
Urban Search and Rescue Response System (US&R).

    The information collection activity authorized under the 
Omnicircular, 2 CFR part 200, is the collection of program and 
administrative information from US&R Sponsoring Agencies relating to 
readiness and response cooperative agreement awards.
