    I have determined that the emergency conditions in the lands 
associated with the Seminole Tribe of Florida resulting from 
Hurricane Irma beginning on September 4, 2017, and continuing, are 
of sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant an emergency 
declaration under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and

Act''). Therefore, I declare that such an emergency exists for the 
Seminole Tribe of Florida and associated lands.
    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.
    Consistent with the requirement that Federal assistance is 
supplemental, any Federal funds provided under the Stafford Act for 
Public Assistance will be limited to 75 percent of the total 
eligible costs.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration 
for the approved assistance to the extent allowable under the 
Stafford Act.
