[Date] 03/05/2012 [Title] State and Local Deputation of Federal Law Enforcement Officers During Stafford Act Deployments [Headnotes] 
Where federal law enforcement officers have been deployed pursuant to the Stafford Act and are properly carrying out federal disaster relief in a local community, they may accept deputation under state laws that expressly authorize them to make state law arrests, where such arrests would bear a logical relationship to or advance the purposes of the Stafford Act deployment.
