To amend the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act to provide flexibility with the cost share for fire management assistance, and for other purposes.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. Short title.

This Act may be cited as the “Wildfire Recovery Act”.

SEC. 2. Fire management assistance cost share.

Section 420 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act is amended—

(1) by redesignating subsection (e) as subsection (f); and

(2) by inserting after subsection (d) the following:

“(e) Federal share.—The Federal share of assistance under this section shall be not less than 75 percent of the eligible cost of such assistance.”.

SEC. 3. Rulemaking.

Not later than 3 years after the date of enactment of this Act, the President, acting through the Administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, shall conduct and complete a rulemaking to provide criteria for the circumstances under which the Administrator may recommend the President increase the Federal cost share for section 420 of the Robert T.
