This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov.
The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov.
The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.
FederalRegister.gov retrieves relevant information about this document from Regulations.gov to provide users with additional context. This information is not part of the official Federal Register document.

According to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C. 5121, et seq., FEMA is authorized to provide assistance before, during, and after a disaster has impacted a State, Tribe, or Territory (STT). For a major disaster, the Stafford Act authorizes FEMA to direct any agency to utilize its existing authorities and resources in support of STT assistance response and recovery efforts. See42 U.S.C. 5170(a)(1). For an emergency, the Stafford Act authorizes FEMA to direct any agency to utilize its existing authorities and resources in support of STT emergency efforts. See42 U.S.C. 5192(a)(1). FEMA may task other Federal Agencies to assist during disasters and to support emergency efforts by STT governments by issuing a mission assignment to the appropriate agency. See44 CFR 206.5, 206.208. FEMA collects the information necessary to determine what resources are needed and if a mission assignment is appropriate. The information collected explains which STT requires assistance, what needs to be accomplished, details any resource shortfalls, and explains what assistance is required to meet these needs.
This proposed information collection previously published in the Federal Register on February 28, 2024, at 89 FR 14673 with a 60-day public comment period. No comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to notify the public that FEMA will submit the information collection abstracted below to the Office of Management and Budget for review and clearance.
The notice FEMA published at 89 FR 14673 published erroneous totals for the Estimated Number of Respondents, Estimated Number of Responses, Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours, Estimated Total Annual Respondent Cost, and Estimated Respondents' Operation and Maintenance Costs due to the clerical error of not including one instrument in the calculations for the totals. The burden and cost numbers for that instrument is included in the totals published in this notice.
