Creates new alternative procedures for smaller disasters under the Stafford Act so aid can be handled differently than in larger, major disasters. The goal is to streamline help for lower‑impact events and potentially reduce paperwork and time to deliver assistance.

The document provided does not include the detailed amendment text, so specific steps, definitions, thresholds, funding rules, and timelines are not stated. The change would likely require FEMA to set up clear guidelines for when and how these alternative procedures apply.
