DHS/FEMA RIN: 1660-AA47 Publication ID: Spring 2011 
Title: Disaster Assistance; Public Assistance Repetitive Damage  
Abstract: This proposed rule implements aspects of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 by reducing the Federal cost share of FEMA Public Assistance to public and certain private nonprofit facilities repetitively damaged in the preceding 10 years by the same type of event, and for which required hazard mitigation has not been implemented. The Federal Government should not repetitively reimburse eligible applicants for damage that could be prevented through mitigation efforts. The reduced Federal cost share of the proposed rule is intended to provide an incentive to mitigate repetitive damage, promote measures that reduce future loss to life and property, protect Federal investment in public infrastructure, and help build disaster-resistant communities.
