Section 401 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act ( 42 U.S.C. 5170 ) is amended by adding at the end the following: In evaluating a request for a declaration under this section, the President shall take into consideration any impacts of the disaster that— will impede the recovery efforts of affected individuals or community; and may not be addressed under disaster programs administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, but that are addressed by other disaster programs, such as the disaster loan program authorized under section 7(b) of the Small Business Act ( 15 U.S.C. 636(b) ) and programs authorized under section 1501 of the Agricultural Act of 2014 ( 7 U.S.C. 9081 ).
In this paragraph, the term agricultural fence line means a physical barrier placed for the purpose of defining the edge or boundary of an area used for agricultural purpose. In considering the impacts of a disaster required to be considered under paragraph (1), the President shall consider the costs of replacing an agricultural fence line. .
