What the document says
“For activities of the Federal Emergency Management Agency for Federal assistance through grants, contracts, cooperative agreements, and other activities, $3,836,748,513, which shall be allocated as follows”
The federal assistance account, the account that carries FEMA's grant programs. The fourteen numbered paragraphs that follow allocate the whole sum in the Act's own text rather than by reference to a table, and each of those paragraphs is recorded separately here.
What the document actually says
“For activities of the Federal Emergency Management Agency for Federal assistance through grants, contracts, cooperative agreements, and other activities, $3,836,748,513, which shall be allocated as follows”
That sentence, in plain words
FEMA gets $3,836,748,513 for grants and like work. The law then splits that sum up.
What this is about
A grant is money passed on to someone else. Here it goes to states, cities and groups. The next fourteen lines say how much each part gets.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
