ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This is a notice of the Presidential declaration of an 
emergency for the State of Georgia (FEMA-3406-EM), dated October 10, 
2018, and related determinations.

DATES: The declaration was issued October 10, 2018.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dean Webster, Office of Response and 
Recovery, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW, 
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2833.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter 
dated October 10, 2018, the President issued an emergency declaration 
under the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and 
Emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121-5207 (the Stafford Act), as 
follows:

    I have determined that the emergency conditions in certain areas 
of the State of Georgia resulting from Hurricane Michael beginning 
on October 9, 2018, and continuing, are of sufficient severity and 
magnitude to warrant an emergency 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 an emergency exists in the State 
of Georgia.
    You are authorized to provide appropriate assistance for 
required emergency measures, authorized under Title V of the 
Stafford Act, to save lives and to protect property and public 
health and safety, and to lessen or avert the threat of a 
catastrophe in the designated areas. Specifically, you are 
authorized to provide assistance for debris removal and emergency 
protective measures (Categories A and B), including direct Federal 
assistance, under the Public Assistance program in selected areas 
and emergency protective measures (Category B), limited to direct 
Federal assistance, under the Public Assistance program in selected 
areas.
    Consistent with the requirement that Federal assistance be 
supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for 
Public Assistance 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. 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 emergency assistance and 
administrative expenses.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration 
for the approved assistance to the extent allowable under the 
Stafford Act.

    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice 
that pursuant to the authority vested in the Administrator, Department 
of Homeland Security, under Executive Order 12148, as amended, Manny J. 
Toro, of FEMA is appointed to act as the Federal Coordinating Officer
