Soboba Band of Luise[ntilde]o Indians; Amendment No. 1 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 
Soboba Band of Luise[ntilde]o Indians (FEMA-4206-DR), dated January 27, 
2015, and related determinations.

DATES: Effective Date: November 30, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dean Webster, Office of Response and 
Recovery, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW., 
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2833.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that, in a letter 
dated November 30, 2016, 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''), in a letter to W. Craig 
Fugate, Administrator, Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department 
of Homeland Security, under Executive Order 12148, as follows:

    I have determined that the damage to the lands associated with 
the Soboba Band of Luise[ntilde]o Indians resulting from severe 
storms, flooding, and mudslides during the period of December 4-6, 
2014, is of sufficient severity and magnitude that special cost 
sharing arrangements are warranted regarding Federal funds provided 
under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 
Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq. (the ``Stafford Act'').
    Therefore, I amend my declaration of January 27, 2015, to 
authorize Federal funds for all categories of Public Assistance at 
90 percent of total eligible costs.
    This adjustment to the cost sharing applies only to Public 
Assistance costs and direct Federal assistance eligible for such 
adjustments under the law. The Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief 
and Emergency Assistance Act specifically prohibits a similar 
adjustment for funds provided for 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; 
97.033, Disaster Legal Services; 97.034, Disaster Unemployment 
Assistance (DUA); 97.046, Fire Management Assistance Grant; 97.048, 
Disaster Housing Assistance to Individuals and Households In 
Presidentially Declared Disaster Areas; 97.049, Presidentially 
Declared Disaster Assistance--Disaster Housing Operations for 
Individuals and Households; 97.050 Presidentially Declared Disaster 
Assistance to Individuals and Households--Other Needs; 97.036, 
Disaster Grants--Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared 
Disasters); 97.039, Hazard Mitigation Grant.)
