DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
Federal Emergency Management Agency
44 CFR Part 64
[Docket No. FEMA-7782]
List of Communities Eligible for the Sale of Flood Insurance
AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Emergency
Preparedness and Response Directorate, 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
properties located in the communities listed below.
EFFECTIVE 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
eligible 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: Michael M. Grimm, Mitigation Division,
500 C Street SW., Room 412, Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2878.
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.
