    Abstract: When a disaster occurs, the Governor of the State or the

processing. The information obtained by joint Federal, State, and local 
preliminary damage assessments will be analyzed by FEMA regional senior 
level staff. The regional summary and the regional analysis and 
recommendation will include a discussion of State and local resources 
and capabilities, and other assistance available to meet the disaster 
related needs. The Administrator of FEMA provides a recommendation to 
the President and also provides a copy of the Governor's or Chief 
Executive's request. In the event the information required by law is 
not contained in the request, the Governor's or Chief Executive's 
request cannot be processed and forwarded to the White House. In the 
event the Governor's request for a major disaster declaration or an 
emergency declaration is not granted, the Governor or Chief Executive 
may appeal the decision.
    Affected Public: State, local or Tribal Government.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 623.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 11,748.

hour burden is $527,976.48. There are no annual costs to respondents' 
operations and maintenance costs for technical services. There are no
