of Kansas resulting from severe storms, flooding, and tornadoes 
during the period of June 7 to July 21, 2010, is of sufficient 
severity and magnitude to warrant a major disaster declaration under

    Therefore, I declare that such a major disaster exists in the

authorized to allocate from funds available for these purposes such 
amounts as you find necessary for Federal disaster assistance and

Consistent with the requirement that Federal assistance is 
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.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration 
for the approved assistance to the extent allowable under the 
Stafford Act.
