    I have determined that the damage to the Seminole Tribe of 
Florida (Tribe), and its associated lands, resulting from Hurricane 
Irma beginning on September 4, 2017, and continuing, 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 for 
the Tribe and its associated lands.
    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 Individual Assistance, Public 
Assistance, and Hazard Mitigation for the Tribe and its associated 
lands. Direct Federal assistance is authorized. Consistent with the 
requirement that Federal assistance be supplemental, any Federal 
funds provided under the Stafford Act for Hazard Mitigation and 
Other Needs Assistance 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. For a period of 30 days from the start of the 
incident period, assistance for emergency protective measures, 
including direct Federal assistance, is authorized at 100 percent of 
the total eligible costs. Federal funding for debris removal will 
remain at 75 percent.
