DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket ID FEMA-2014-0002; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-8335]

Suspension of Community Eligibility

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) that are scheduled for suspension on the effective dates
listed within this rule because of noncompliance with the floodplain
management requirements of the program. If the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) receives documentation that the community has
adopted the required floodplain management measures prior to the
effective suspension date given in this rule, the suspension will not
occur and a notice of this will be provided by publication in the
Federal Register on a subsequent date. Also, information identifying
the current participation status of a community can be obtained from
FEMA's Community Status Book (CSB). The CSB is available at http://www.fema.gov/fema/csb.shtm.

DATES: Effective Dates: The effective date of each community's
scheduled suspension is the third date (``Susp.'') listed in the third
column of the following tables.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you want to determine whether a
particular community was suspended on the suspension date or for
further information, contact David Stearrett, Federal Insurance and
Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C
Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase
Federal flood insurance that is not otherwise generally available from
private insurers. In return, communities agree to adopt and administer
local floodplain management measures aimed at protecting lives and new
construction from future flooding. Section 1315 of the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits the sale
of NFIP flood insurance unless an appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed in this document no longer meet that
statutory requirement for compliance with program regulations, 44 CFR
Part 59. Accordingly, the communities will be suspended on the
effective date in the third column. As of that date, flood insurance
will no longer be available in the community. We recognize that some of
these communities may adopt and submit the required documentation of
legally enforceable floodplain management measures after this rule is
published but prior to the actual suspension date. These communities
will not be suspended and will continue to be eligible for the sale of
NFIP flood insurance. A notice withdrawing the suspension of such
communities will be published in the Federal Register.
    In addition, FEMA publishes a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that
identifies the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) in these communities.
The date of the FIRM, if one has been published, is indicated in the
fourth column of the table. No direct Federal financial assistance
(except assistance pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford

Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act not in connection with a
flood) may be provided for construction or acquisition of buildings in
identified SFHAs for communities not participating in the NFIP and
identified for more than a year on FEMA's initial FIRM for the
community as having flood-prone areas (section 202(a) of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4106(a), as amended). This
prohibition against certain types of Federal assistance becomes
effective for the communities listed on the date shown in the last
column. The Administrator finds that notice and public comment
procedures under 5 U.S.C. 553(b), are impracticable and unnecessary
because communities listed in this final rule have been adequately
notified.
    Each community receives 6-month, 90-day, and 30-day notification
letters addressed to the Chief Executive Officer stating that the
community will be suspended unless the required floodplain management
measures are met prior to the effective suspension date. Since these
notifications were made, this final rule may take effect within less
than 30 days.
    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 has determined that
this rule is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act because the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
Section 1315, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance coverage unless
an appropriate public body adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement measures. The communities listed no
longer comply with the statutory requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurance will no longer be available in the communities
unless remedial action takes place.
    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.
    Executive Order 13132, Federalism. This rule involves no policies
that have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132.
    Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This rule meets the
applicable standards of Executive Order 12988.
    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.

III. Selection Procedures

    Selection of members representing consumer interests is conducted
through procedures that include the use of organizations representing
the public interest and public advocacy groups. These organizations
recommend nominees for the Agency's selection. Representatives from the
consumer health branches of Federal, State, and local governments also
may participate in the selection process. Any consumer organization
interested in participating in the selection of an appropriate voting
or nonvoting member to represent consumer interests should send a
letter stating that interest to FDA (see ADDRESSES) within 30 days of
publication of this document.
    Within the subsequent 30 days, FDA will compile a list of consumer
organizations that will participate in the selection process and will
forward to each such organization a ballot listing three to five
qualified nominees selected by the Agency based on the nominations
received, together with each nominee's current curriculum vitae or
resume. Ballots are to be filled out and returned to FDA within 30
days. The nominee receiving the highest number of votes ordinarily will
be selected to serve as the member representing consumer interests for
that particular advisory committee or panel.

IV. Nomination Procedures

    Any interested person or organization may nominate one or more
qualified persons to represent consumer interests on the Agency's
advisory committees or panels. Self-nominations are also accepted.
Potential candidates will be required to provide detailed information
concerning such matters as financial holdings, employment, and research
grants and/or contracts to permit evaluation of possible sources of
conflicts of interest.
    All nominations should include: A cover letter; a curriculum vitae
or resume that includes the nominee's home or office address, telephone
number, and e-mail address; and a list of consumer or community-based
organizations for which the candidate can demonstrate active
participation.
    Nominations also should specify the advisory committee(s) or
panel(s) for which the nominee is recommended. In addition, nominations
should include confirmation that the nominee is aware of the nomination
and is willing to serve as a member of the advisory committee or panel
if selected. The term of office is up to 4 years.
    FDA will review all nominations received within the specified
timeframes and prepare a ballot containing the names of three to five
qualified nominees. Names not selected will remain on a list of
eligible nominees and be reviewed periodically by FDA to determine
continued interest. Upon selecting qualified nominees for the ballot,
FDA will provide those consumer organizations that are participating in
the selection process with the opportunity to vote on the listed
nominees. Only organizations vote in the selection process. Persons who
nominate themselves to serve as voting or nonvoting consumer
representatives will not participate in the selection process.
    FDA has a special interest in ensuring that women, minority groups,
and individuals with physical disabilities are adequately represented
on its advisory committees and panels and, therefore, encourages
nominations for appropriately qualified candidates from these groups.
