Abstract: Because of the substantial risk to life, safety, or health of individuals due to the probable shortage in emergency medical equipment, supporting distribution infrastructure and other life-sustaining equipment related to COVID-19 treatment, FEMA requests an Emergency Waiver to collect the necessary information from potential donors and incorporate the voluntary donations web portal into the FEMA.gov internet site. This information will allow FEMA to collect voluntary information from donors on possible donations of key equipment and resources that can be distributed to key organizational recipients directly responding to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Emergency Justfication: The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) seeks emergency approval for a new information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Collection 1660-00NW Coronavirus (COVID-19) Donations Web Portal in accordance with Emergency Management Declarations (EM) 3427-3487 or Major Disaster Declarations (DR) 4480-4482. It is vital that FEMA implement the information collection as soon as possible to support immediate needs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The web portal will collect business contact information from POCs as well as descriptive information about an entity’s potential donation item, the location of the items, and the amount of goods being donated. Public harm will result without the immediate implementation of the FEMA.gov donations web portal. The FEMA.gov donations web portal provides the ability to collect logistical and technical information on resources to organize and prioritize distribution quickly and efficiently. FEMA’s use of the web portal will ensure that COVID-19 support organizations are provided with assistance first.
