a Drought Emergency
Coordinating Committee.
Signing the memorandum
of agreement forming the
committee were Secretary of
Agriculture Bob Bergland,
Secretary of the Interior
Cecil D, Andrus, Secretary
of Commerce Juanita M.
Kreps, and Administrator A.
Vernon Weaver, Small
Business Administration
(SB A). The committee
consists of a representative
designated by each of the
four principals.
Representing Secretary
Bergland and serving as
committee chairman will be
Dr. M. Rupert Cutler,
assistant secretary for
conservation, research and
education. The committee
executive secretary will be
the administrator of the
Federal Diaster Assistance
Administration (FDAA) or
his designee.
The memo established a
uniform procedure for
designating Emergency
Drought Inpact Areas
(EDIA). The governor of a
state may request that the
committee designate all or
part of his state as an
emergency drought impact
area, the committee
secretary will record it and
publish it in the Federal
Register. Designation of an
area will make it im
mediately eligible for
available aid from SBA and
the three departments. If a
committee member objects
to such a designation, the
committee will forward the
request for designation to
each individual agency for
independent action.
One of the first actions by
the committee was to publish
a list of 24 states and some
1,200 counties that are
potentially eligible for
emergency drought
assistance.
The listing of eligible areas
includes all areas previously
designated for - drought
assistance by FDAA.SBA,
the Farmers Home Ad
ministration and
Agricultural Stabilization
and Conservation Service of
the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, and areas in
which Interior Department
Bureau of Reclamation
projects are located.
The committee stressed
that designation of a county
at this preliminary stage
does not confer automatic
entitlement to drought aid.
Individuals or communities
still must meet separate
egilibility requirements
established by each agency.
The new procedure will
reduce the time required by
state and local governments
to obtain an emergency
designation from each of the
separate federal depart
ments or agencies. A single
request-if approved-can
clear the way for emergency
assistance from all affected
agencies.
