    I have determined that the damage in certain areas of the State 
of Hawaii resulting from wildfires beginning on August 8, 2023, and

18, 2023, and September 8, 2023, to authorize Federal funds for 
debris removal, including direct Federal assistance, at 100 percent 
of the total eligible costs for a continuous 180-day period of the 
State's choosing within the first nine months from the start of the 
incident period. I further authorize Federal funds for emergency 
protective measures, including direct Federal assistance, at 100 
percent of the total eligible costs for a continuous 90-day period 
of the State's choosing within the first six months from the start 
of the incident period.
