DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket No. FEMA-7784]


List of Communities Eligible for the Sale of Flood Insurance

AGENCY: Mitigation Division, Federal Emergency Management Agency 
(FEMA), Department of Homeland Security.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities that are participating and 
suspended from the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). These 
communities have applied to the program and have agreed to enact 
certain floodplain management measures. The communities' participation 
in the program authorizes the sale of flood insurance to owners of

[[Page 16705]]

properties located in the communities listed below.

DATES: The effective date for each community is listed in the fourth 
column of the following tables.

ADDRESSES: Flood insurance policies for properties located in the 
communities listed below can be obtained from any licensed property 
insurance agent or broker serving the eligible community or from the 
NFIP by calling 1-800-638-6620.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: William H. Lesser, Mitigation 
Division, 500 C Street, SW., Room 412, Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-
2807.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase 
flood insurance that is generally not otherwise available. In return, 
communities agree to adopt and administer local floodplain management 
measures aimed at protecting lives and new construction from future 
flooding. Because the communities on the attached list have recently 
entered the NFIP, subsidized flood insurance is now available for 
properties in these communities.
    In addition, FEMA has identified the Special Flood Hazard Areas 
(SFHAs) in some of these communities by publishing a Flood Hazard 
Boundary Map (FHBM) or Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). The date of the 
flood map, if one has been published, is indicated in the fourth column 
of the table. In the communities listed where a flood map has been 
published, Section 202 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as 
amended, 42 U.S.C. 4016(a), requires the purchase of flood insurance as 
a condition of Federal or Federally-related financial assistance for 
acquisition or construction of buildings in the SFHAs shown on the map.
    The Administrator finds that delayed effective dates would be 
contrary to the public interest and that notice and public procedure 
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and unnecessary.
    National Environmental Policy Act. This rule is categorically 
excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR part 10, Environmental 
Considerations. No environmental impact assessment has been prepared.
    Regulatory Flexibility Act. The Administrator certifies that this 
rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility 
Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., because the rule creates no additional 
burden, but lists those communities eligible for the sale of flood 
insurance.
    Regulatory Classification. This final 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.
    Paperwork Reduction Act. This rule does not involve any collection 
of information for purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 
3501 et seq.
