-----------------------------------------------------------------------

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dean Webster, Office of Response and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter 
dated September 29, 2018, the President issued a major disaster 
declaration under the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster 
Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the 
``Stafford Act''), as follows:

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the 
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands resulting from Typhoon 
Mangkhut during the period of September 10 to September 11, 2018, 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 Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
    In order to provide Federal assistance, 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 and Public 
Assistance in the designated areas and Hazard Mitigation throughout 
the Commonwealth. 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, 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.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration 
for the approved assistance to the extent allowable under the 
Stafford Act.

    The time period prescribed for the implementation of section 
310(a), Priority to Certain Applications for Public Facility and Public 
Housing Assistance, 42 U.S.C. 5153, shall be for a period not to exceed 
six months after the date of this declaration.
    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice 
that pursuant to the authority vested in the Administrator, under 
Executive Order 12148, as amended, Benigno Bern Ruiz, of FEMA is 
appointed to act as the Federal Coordinating Officer for this major 
disaster.
