FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY

44 CFR Part 67

[Docket No. FEMA-7251]


Proposed Flood Elevation Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Technical information or comments are requested on the 
proposed base (1% annual chance) flood elevations and proposed base 
flood elevation modifications for the communities listed below. The 
base flood elevations are the basis for the floodplain management 
measures that the community is required either to adopt or to show 
evidence of being already in effect in order to qualify or remain 
qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program 
(NFIP).

DATES: The comment period is ninety (90) days following the second 
publication of this proposed rule in a newspaper of local circulation 
in each community.

ADDRESSES: The proposed base flood elevations for each community are 
available for inspection at the office of the Chief Executive Officer 
of each community. The respective addresses are listed in the following 
table.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Matthew B. Miller, P.E., Chief, 
Hazards Study Branch, Mitigation Directorate, 500 C Street SW., 
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-3461.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency 
(FEMA or Agency) proposes to make determinations of base flood 
elevations and modified base flood elevations for

[[Page 17794]]

each community listed below, in accordance with section 110 of the 
Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104, and 44 CFR 
67.4(a).
    These proposed base flood and modified base flood elevations, 
together with the floodplain management criteria required by 44 CFR 
60.3, are the minimum that are required. They should not be construed 
to mean that the community must change any existing ordinances that are 
more stringent in their floodplain management requirements. The 
community may at any time enact stricter requirements of its own, or 
pursuant to policies established by other Federal, state or regional 
entities. These proposed elevations are used to meet the floodplain 
management requirements of the NFIP and are also used to calculate the 
appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings built after 
these elevations are made final, and for the contents in these 
buildings.

National Environmental Policy Act

    This proposed rule is categorically excluded from the requirements 
of 44 CFR Part 10, Environmental Consideration. No environmental impact 
assessment has been prepared.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Associate Director, Mitigation Directorate, certifies that this 
proposed rule is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act because proposed or modified base flood elevations are 
required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104, 
and are required to establish and maintain community eligibility in the 
National Flood Insurance Program. As a result, a regulatory flexibility 
analysis has not been prepared.

Regulatory Classification

    This proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action under the 
criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 of September 30, 
1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 58 FR 51735.

Executive Order 12612, Federalism

    This proposed rule involves no policies that have federalism 
implications under Executive Order 12612, Federalism, dated October 26, 
1987.

Executive Order 12778, Civil Justice Reform

    This proposed rule meets the applicable standards of section 
2(b)(2) of Executive Order 12778.

List of Subjects in 44 CFR Part 67

    Administrative practice and procedure, Flood insurance, Reporting 
and recordkeeping requirements.

    Accordingly, 44 CFR part 67 is proposed to be amended as follows:
