[[Page 32321]] SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, 
in a letter dated June 14, 1995, the President declared a major 
disaster under the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief 
and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.), as follows:.

    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State 
of Tennessee, resulting from severe storms and tornadoes on May 14-
19, 1995, is of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant a major 
disaster declaration under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief 
and Emergency Assistance Act (``the Stafford Act''). I, therefore, 
declare that such a major disaster exists in the State of Tennessee.
    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 Public Assistance in the 
designated areas. Hazard Mitigation Assistance may be provided at a 
later date if requested and warranted. Consistent with the 
requirement that Federal assistance be supplemented, any Federal 
funds provided under the Stafford Act for Public Assistance or 
Hazard Mitigation will be limited to 75 percent of the total 
eligible costs.

    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
    Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the authority vested in the 
Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency under Executive 
Order 12148, I hereby appoint Glenn Woodard of the Federal Emergency 
Management Agency to act as the Federal Coordinating Officer for this 
declared disaster.
    I do hereby determine the following areas of the State of Tennessee 
to have been affected adversely by this declared major disaster:

The counties of Cumberland, Houston and Lawrence for Public 
Assistance.
