    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State 
of Georgia resulting from severe storms, tornadoes, and straight-

magnitude to warrant a major disaster declaration under the Robert

a major disaster exists in the State of Georgia.

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

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, 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
