SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State 
of Arkansas resulting from severe storms, tornadoes, straight-line 
winds, and flooding during the period of December 26, 2015 to 
January 22, 2016, 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 Arkansas.

authorized to allocate from funds available for these purposes such 
amounts as you find necessary for Federal disaster assistance and

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.
