SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title: OIG Data Collection for DBE
Participation at Large and Medium Hub Airports.
    Form Numbers: N/A.
    Type of Review: New Information Collection.
    Background: Under section 140(c) of the FAA Modernization and
Reform Act of 2012, the Office of Inspector General, Department of
Transportation has been directed to report on the nation's large and
medium hub airports regarding their ability to hire new DBEs, assess
the reasons why the most successful airports have been able to provide
such opportunities, and to give recommendations to the FAA and Congress
on methods for other airports to achieve results similar to those of
the top airports. The information to be collected will help OIG
establish which airports have been successful in the DBE hiring process
and factors that led to their success.
    OIG plans to collect information from large and medium hub airports
on DBE programs and DBE participation. The respondents consist of the
approximately 65 large and medium hub airports that receive funding
from the FAA and are required to have a DBE program. Large hub airports
are defined as commercial airports that have at least 1.0 percent of
passenger boardings. Medium hub airports are defined as commercial
airports that have at least .25 percent but less than 1.0 percent of
passenger boardings. OIG plans to collect the information primarily by
conducting interviews. OIG will send out a questionnaire in advance to
the airports, to allow the airports to collect responsive information
and documents and prepare for the interview.
    Respondents: Large and medium hub airports.
    Number of Respondents: Approximately 65.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Number of Responses: One per annum.
    Estimated Time per Response: Total information collection: 8 hours
per respondent; subsequent interview process: 4 hours per respondent.
    Total Annual Burden: Approximately 780 hours. Approximately 65
respondents with 12 total burden hours per respondent.
    Public Comments are Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect
of this information collection, including: (1) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the OIG's functions,

including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the
accuracy of the estimated burden of the proposed information
collection; (3) ways for the OIG to enhance the quality, usefulness,
and clarity of the collected information; and (4) ways that the burden
could be minimized on respondents, including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology without
reducing the quality of the collected information. The agency will
summarize or include your comments in the request for OMB's clearance
of this information collection.

    I have determined that the emergency conditions in certain areas

Changes in Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department of Homeland
Security.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: New or modified Base (1-percent annual chance) Flood
Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)
boundaries or zone designations, and/or regulatory floodways
(hereinafter referred to as flood hazard determinations) as shown on
the indicated Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) for each of the communities
listed in the table below are finalized. Each LOMR revises the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and in some cases the Flood Insurance
Study (FIS) reports, currently in effect for the listed communities.

DATES: Each LOMR was finalized as in the table below.

ADDRESSES: Each LOMR is available for inspection at both the respective
Community Map Repository address listed in the table below and online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at https://msc.fema.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Sacbibit, Chief, Engineering
Services Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration, FEMA,
400 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or (email)
[email protected]; or visit the FEMA Mapping and Insurance
eXchange (FMIX) online at https://www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) makes the final flood hazard determinations as shown in the
LOMRs for each community listed in the table below. Notice of these
modified flood hazard determinations has been published in newspapers
of local circulation and 90 days have elapsed since that publication.
The Deputy Associate Administrator for Insurance and Mitigation has
resolved any appeals resulting from this notification.
    The modified flood hazard determinations are made pursuant to
section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4105, and are in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65. The currently
effective community number is shown and must be used for all new
policies and renewals.
    The new or modified flood hazard information is 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 remain
qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
    This new or modified flood hazard information, 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.
    This new or modified flood hazard determinations are used to meet
the floodplain management requirements of the NFIP. The changes in
flood hazard determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
    Interested lessees and owners of real property are encouraged to
review the final flood hazard information available at the address
cited below for each community or online through the FEMA Map Service
Center at https://msc.fema.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Regulatory Information

    The Coast Guard is issuing this temporary final rule without prior
notice and opportunity to comment pursuant to authority under section
4(a) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This
provision authorizes an agency to issue a rule without prior notice and
opportunity to comment when the agency for good cause finds that those
procedures are ``impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest.'' This rule provides proper notice; however, under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that good cause exists for not
publishing a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) which would provide a
comment period with respect to this rule. The Coast Guard received an
application for a Marine Event Permit on January 31, 2011 from Super
Boat International, Inc. to conduct a high speed boat race on May 6,
2012. After reviewing the details of the event and the permit
application, the Coast Guard determined that a special local regulation
is needed and delaying or foregoing this safety measure to provide a
comment period would be contrary to the public interest. The special
local regulation is needed to safeguard persons and vessels from safety
hazards associated with the Emerald Coast Super Boat Grand Prix high
speed boat races.

Basis and Purpose

    On January 31, 2012, Super Boat International, Inc. applied for a
Marine Event Permit to conduct a high speed boat race on Saint Andrew
Bay, Panama City, FL on May 6, 2012. This event will draw in a large
number of pleasure craft and the high speed boats pose a significant
safety hazard to both vessels and mariners operating in or near the
area. The COTP Mobile is establishing a temporary special local
regulation for a portion of Saint Andrew Bay, Panama City, FL, to
safeguard persons and vessels during the high speed boat races.
    The COTP anticipates minimal impact on vessel traffic due to this
regulation. However, this special local regulation is deemed necessary
for the safeguard of life and property within the COTP Mobile zone.

Discussion of Rule

    The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary special local
regulation for a portion of Saint Andrew Bay, Panama City, FL, enclosed
by a bounded area starting at a point on the shore at approximately
30[deg]09'55.62'' N, 085[deg]41'46.30'' W, then east following the
shore line to 30[deg]08'39.18'' N, 085[deg]39'27.89'' W, then southwest
to 30[deg]08'34.24'' N, 085[deg]39'40.68'' W, then west to
30[deg]09'34.35'' N, 085[deg]41'46.30'' W, then north to the starting
point at 30[deg]09'55.62'' N, 085[deg]41'46.30'' W. This temporary rule
will safeguard life and property in this area. Entry into, transiting
in or anchoring in this zone is prohibited to all vessels not
registered with the sponsor as participants or not part of the regatta
patrol, unless specifically authorized by the COTP Mobile or a
designated representative. They may be contacted on VHF-FM Channel 16
or through Coast Guard Sector Mobile at<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    The COTP Mobile or a designated representative will inform the
public through broadcast notice to mariners of changes in the effective
period for the special local regulation. This rule will

be effective and enforced from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. on May 6, 2012.

Regulatory Analyses

    We developed this rule after considering numerous statutes and
executive orders related to rulemaking. Below we summarize our analyses
based on 13 of these statutes or executive orders.

Regulatory Planning and Review

    This rule is not a significant regulatory action under section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, as
supplemented by Executive Order 13563, Improving Regulation and
Regulatory Review, and does not require an assessment of potential
costs and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of Executive Order 12866 or
under section 1 of Executive Order 13563. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under those Orders.
    The special local regulation listed in this rule will only restrict
vessel traffic from entering, transiting, or anchoring within a small
portion of Saint Andrew Bay, Panama City, FL. The effect of this
regulation will not be significant for several reasons: (1) This rule
will only affect vessel traffic for a short duration; (2) vessels may
request permission from the COTP to transit through the regulated area;
and (3) the impacts on routine navigation are expected to be minimal.
Notifications to the marine community will be made through broadcast
notice to mariners. These notifications will allow the public to plan
operations around the regulated area.

Small Entities

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612), we have
considered whether this rule would have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities. The term ``small entities''
comprises small businesses, not-for-profit organizations that are
independently owned and operated and are not dominant in their fields,
and governmental jurisdictions with populations of less than 50,000.
    The Coast Guard certifies under 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities. This rule will affect the following entities, some of which
may be small entities: The owners or operators of vessels intending to
transit or anchor in affected portions of Saint Andrew Bay during the
high speed boat races. This special local regulation will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
for the following reasons. The zone is limited in size, is of short
duration and vessel traffic may request permission from the COTP Mobile
or a designated representative to enter or transit through the
regulated area.

Assistance for Small Entities

    Under section 213(a) of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-121), we offer to assist small
entities in understanding the rule so that they can better evaluate its
effects on them and participate in the rulemaking process.
    Small businesses may send comments on the actions of Federal
employees who enforce, or otherwise determine compliance with, Federal
regulations to the Small Business and Agriculture Regulatory
Enforcement Ombudsman and the Regional Small Business Regulatory
Fairness Boards. The Ombudsman evaluates these actions annually and
rates each agency's responsiveness to small business. If you wish to
comment on actions by employees of the Coast Guard, call 1-888-REG-FAIR
(1-888-734-3247). The Coast Guard will not retaliate against small
entities that question or complain about this rule or any policy or
action of the Coast Guard.

Collection of Information

    This calls for no new collection of information under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520).

Federalism

    A rule has implications for federalism under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism, if it has a substantial direct effect on the States, on the
relationship between the national government and the States, or on the
distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of
government. We have analyzed this rule under that Order and determined
that this rule does not have implications for federalism.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531-1538)
requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their discretionary
regulatory actions. In particular, the Act addresses actions that may
result in the expenditure by a State, local, or tribal government, in
the aggregate, or by the private sector of $100,000,000 (adjusted for
inflation) or more in any one year. Though this rule will not result in
such expenditure, we do discuss the effects of this rule elsewhere in
this preamble.

Taking of Private Property

    This rule will not affect a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630, Governmental
Actions and Interference with Constitutionally Protected Property
Rights.

Civil Justice Reform

    This rule meets applicable standards in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform, to minimize litigation,
eliminate ambiguity, and reduce burden.

Protection of Children

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13045, Protection
of Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks. This rule
is not an economically significant rule and does not create an
environmental risk to health or risk to safety that may
disproportionately affect children.

Indian Tribal Governments

    This rule does not have tribal implications under Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments,
because it does not have a substantial direct effect on one or more
Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Federal Government and
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities
between the Federal Government and Indian tribes.

Energy Effects

    We have analyzed this rule under Executive Order 13211, Actions
Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use. We have determined that it is not a ``significant
energy action'' under that order because it is not a ``significant
regulatory action'' under Executive Order 12866 and is not likely to
have a significant adverse effect on the supply, distribution, or use
of energy. The Administrator of the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs has not designated it as a significant energy
action. Therefore, it does not require a Statement of Energy Effects
under Executive Order 13211.

Technical Standards

    The National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use voluntary consensus standards
in their regulatory activities unless the agency provides Congress,
through the Office of Management and Budget, with an explanation of why
using these standards would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are

technical standards (e.g., specifications of materials, performance,
design, or operation; test methods; sampling procedures; and related
management systems practices) that are developed or adopted by
voluntary consensus standards bodies.
    This rule does not use technical standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus standards.

Environment

    We have analyzed this rule under Department of Homeland Security
Management Directive 023-01 and Commandant Instruction M16475.lD, which
guide the Coast Guard in complying with the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321-4370f), and have concluded
this action is one of a category of actions which do not individually
or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment.
This rule is categorically excluded, under figure 2-1, paragraph
(34)(h), of the Instruction. This rule involves establishing a special
local regulation, requiring a permit wherein an analysis of the
environmental impact of the regulations was performed. Under figure 2-
1, paragraph (34)(h.), of the Instruction, an environmental analysis
checklist and a categorical exclusion determination are not required
for this rule.

``official patrol vessels'' consist of any Coast Guard, state, or local
law enforcement and sponsor provided vessels assigned or approved by
the Captain of the Port Mobile to patrol the regulated area.
    (3) Spectator vessels desiring to transit the regulated area may do
so only with prior approval of the Patrol Commander and when so

    (6) Any spectator vessel may anchor outside the regulated area, but
may not anchor in, block, or loiter in a navigable channel. Spectator
vessels may be moored to a waterfront facility within the regulated
area in such a way that they shall not interfere with the progress of
the event. Such mooring must be complete at least 30 minutes prior to
the establishment of the regulated area and remain moored through the
duration of the event.
    (7) The Patrol Commander may terminate the event or the operation
of any vessel at any time it is deemed necessary for the protection of
life or property.
    (8) The Patrol Commander will terminate enforcement of the special
local regulations at the conclusion of the event.
    (d) Informational Broadcasts. The Captain of the Port or a
designated representative will inform the public through broadcast
