SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Background

    On March 22, 2004, EPA issued a final rule amending the MSWLF
criteria in 40 CFR part 258 to allow for RD&D permits (69 FR 13242).
This rule allows for variances from specified criteria for a limited
period of time, to be implemented through state-issued RD&D permits.
RD&D permits are available only in states with approved MSWLF permit
programs that have been modified to incorporate RD&D permit authority.
On May 10, 2016, the EPA issued a revision to the regulations allowing
RD&D permits to increase the number of permit renewals allowed to six,
for a total permit term of up to 21 years (40 CFR 258.4).
    While states are not required to incorporate this new provision,
those states interested in providing RD&D permits must seek approval
from EPA before issuing such permits. On October 30, 2006, Michigan
received approval of its RD&D permit program (71 FR 51614). On February
15, 2017, MDEQ submitted a notification to EPA Region 5 seeking Federal
approval of its revised RD&D requirements per the procedures in 40 CFR
239.12. Michigan's revised RD&D provisions can be found in Part 115 of
the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act as amended by
2016 PA 437.

B. Decision

    EPA has made a determination that the Michigan RD&D permit
provisions as set out in Part 115 of the Natural Resources and
Environmental Protection Act as amended by 2016 PA 437 comply with the
Federal criteria, as set forth in 40 CFR 258.4.

    Authority: This action is issued under the authority of section
2002, 4005 and 4010(c) of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended,
40 U.S.C. 6912, 6945 and 6949(a).

    Dated: May 29, 2017.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 5.

44 CFR Part 67

[Docket ID FEMA-2011-0002; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-B-1021]

Proposed Flood Elevation Determinations; Correction

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Proposed rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: On November 24, 2008, FEMA published in the Federal Register a
proposed rule that contained an erroneous table. This notice provides
corrections to that table, to be used in lieu of the information
published at 73 FR 70944. The table provided here represents the
flooding sources, location of referenced elevations, effective and
modified elevations, and communities affected for Lyon County,
Kentucky, and Incorporated Areas. Specifically, it addresses the
flooding sources Cumberland River (Lake Barkley) and Tennessee River
(Kentucky Lake).

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before October 20, 2011.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. FEMA-B-
1021, to Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering Management Branch, Federal
Insurance and Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management
Agency, 500 C Street, SW., Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER> or (e-
mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering
Management Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration,
Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street, SW., Washington, DC
20472,<PHONE_NUMBER> or (e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1% annual-chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified BFEs for communities participating
in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), 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 BFEs and modified BFEs, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are minimum requirements.
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
also are used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium
rates for new buildings built after these elevations are made final,
and for the contents in those buildings.

Correction

    In the proposed rule published at 73 FR 70944, in the November 24,
2008, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under the
authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ``Lyon County, Kentucky,
and Incorporated Areas'' addressed the flooding sources Cumberland
River (Lake Barkley) and Tennessee River (Kentucky Lake). That table
contained inaccurate information as to the location of referenced
elevation, effective and modified elevation in feet, and/or communities
affected for those flooding sources. In this notice, FEMA is publishing
a table containing the accurate information, to address these prior
errors. The information provided below should be used in lieu of that
previously published.
