Missouri; Amendment No. 5 to Notice of a Major Disaster 
Declaration

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This notice amends the notice of a major disaster for the 
State of Missouri (FEMA-1980-DR), dated May 9, 2011, and related 
determinations.

DATES: Effective Date: May 31, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tod Wells, Recovery Directorate, 
Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street, SW., Washington, DC 
20472, (202) 646-3834.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, on May 31, 
2011, the President amended the cost-sharing arrangements regarding 
Federal funds provided 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:

    A ninety percent (90%) Federal cost share for all debris 
removal, including direct Federal assistance, for those areas within 
counties designated for Public Assistance that are within, or 
immediately adjacent to, areas of ``extensive'' or ``catastrophic'' 
damage directly caused by the EF-5 tornado that struck Missouri on 
May 22, 2011, as determined by the Federal Coordinating Officer 
applying objective standards used by the National Geospatial-
Intelligence Agency. I authorize this cost-share adjustment 
beginning May 22, 2011, through August 7, 2011. FEMA and the State 
of Missouri shall pursue any applicable private insurance payments 
for debris removal to reimburse Federal costs to the extent 
permitted by law.
    This adjustment to State and local cost sharing applies only to 
Public Assistance costs, including direct Federal assistance, for 
eligible debris removal for those areas within counties designated 
for Public Assistance that are within, or immediately adjacent to, 
areas of ``extensive'' or ``catastrophic'' damage directly caused by 
the May 22, 2011, EF-5 tornado as determined above by the Federal 
Coordinating Officer. All other Public Assistance costs will 
continue to be reimbursed at 75 percent of total eligible costs. The 
law specifically prohibits a similar adjustment for funds provided 
to States for Other Needs Assistance (Section 408) and the Hazard 
Mitigation Grant Program (Section 404). These funds will continue to 
be reimbursed at 75 percent of total eligible costs.

(The following Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance Numbers (CFDA) 
are to be used for reporting and drawing funds: 97.030, Community 
Disaster Loans; 97.031, Cora Brown Fund; 97.032, Crisis Counseling;
