“Credit” PW after all emergency work is
completed.

documentation and reference each applicable
emergency work (Cat A or B) Project Worksheet(s).

entered on the PW as a line item of the project
cost. This amount cannot exceed the maximum
credit allowed for donation.

other emergency work PW’s for the same Applicant in
the same disaster and may not exceed the maximum
allowable credit for each PW.

Work (Cat A and Cat B)
• State may only claim Donated Resource Credit

Note: Credit for donated resources may not be applied for any work
performed during a 100% Federally funded period because the
non-Federal share would be zero (0) for that period.

doing eligible work may be considered an eligible
cost or donations credit by FEMA’s Regional
Administrator.
