Title VII of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act ( 42 U.S.C. 5201 et seq. ) is amended by adding at the end the following: Not later than 180 days after the date of enactment of this section, the President shall establish a process to ensure that each individual and business that applies for a category of Federal disaster assistance is provided written notice that describes— the various categories of Federal disaster assistance that may be available to the individual or business; the impact that receiving or declining the category of Federal disaster assistance applied for will have on eligibility for other categories of Federal disaster assistance; and repayment requirements or penalties that may apply if multiple categories of Federal disaster assistance are accepted.
On the date on which the President establishes the process under subsection (a), the President shall transmit to Congress a report describing the process. On and after the date on which the President establishes the process under subsection (a), an individual or business that is not provided the written notice described in that subsection upon application for a category of Federal disaster assistance may not be held responsible for any repayment requirement or penalty that would otherwise result from the receipt of such assistance.
In this section, the term Federal disaster assistance means Federal assistance, including loans and grants, provided— pursuant to this Act, the Small Business Act, or the community development block grant disaster recovery program of the Department of Housing and Urban Development; to an individual or business; and in response to a major disaster or emergency declared by the President under section 401 of this Act. .
