SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter 
dated August 10, 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 Florida, resulting from Hurricane Erin on August 2-3, 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 Florida.
    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 Hazard 
Mitigation Assistance in the designated areas. Further, you are 
authorized to provide reimbursement for debris removal under the 
Public Assistance program. Other assistance under Public Assistance 
may be added at a later date, if warranted. Consistent with the 
requirement that Federal assistance be supplemental, any Federal 
funds provided under the Stafford Act for Public Assistance and 
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 Michael J. Polny 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 Florida 
to have been affected adversely by this declared major disaster:

Brevard, Escambia and Okaloosa Counties for Individual Assistance.
Bay, Brevard, Escambia, Okaloosa, Santa Rosa and Walton Counties for 
reimbursement for debris removal under the Public Assistance 
program.
Bay, Brevard, Escambia, Okaloosa, Santa Rosa and Walton Counties for 
Hazard Mitigation Assistance.
