DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 67

[Docket ID FEMA-2010-0003; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-B-1087]

Proposed Flood Elevation Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: Comments are requested on the proposed Base (1% annual-chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and proposed BFE modifications for the
communities listed in the table below. The purpose of this notice is to
seek general information and comment regarding the proposed regulatory
flood elevations for the reach described by the downstream and upstream
locations in the table below. The BFEs and modified BFEs are a part of
the floodplain management measures that the community is required
either to adopt or show evidence of having in effect in order to
qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP). In addition, these elevations, once
finalized, will be used by insurance agents, and others to calculate
appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings and the
contents in those buildings.

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before May 11, 2010.

ADDRESSES: The corresponding preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Map
(FIRM) for the proposed BFEs for each community is available for
inspection at the community's map repository. The respective addresses
are listed in the table below.
    You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. FEMA-B-1087, to
Kevin C. Long, Acting Chief, Engineering Management Branch, Mitigation
Directorate, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street, SW.,
Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>, or (e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kevin C. Long, Acting Chief,
Engineering Management Branch, Mitigation Directorate, Federal
Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,
(202) 646-2820, or (e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) proposes to make determinations of BFEs and modified BFEs for
each community listed below, 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 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. These proposed
elevations are used to meet the floodplain management requirements of
the NFIP and are also used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance
premium rates for new buildings built after these elevations are made
final, and for the contents in these buildings.
    Comments on any aspect of the Flood Insurance Study and FIRM, other
than the proposed BFEs, will be considered. A letter acknowledging
receipt of any comments will not be sent.
    National Environmental Policy Act. This proposed rule is
categorically excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR part 10,
Environmental Consideration. An environmental impact assessment has not
been prepared.
    Regulatory Flexibility Act. As flood elevation determinations are
not within the scope of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601-
612, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required.
    Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review. This
proposed rule is not a significant regulatory action

under the criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866, as
amended.
    Executive Order 13132, Federalism. This proposed rule involves no
policies that have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132.
    Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This proposed rule
meets the applicable standards of Executive Order 12988.

List of Subjects in 44 CFR Part 67

    Administrative practice and procedure, Flood insurance, Reporting
and recordkeeping requirements.

    Accordingly, 44 CFR part 67 is proposed to be amended as follows:

II. Description

    The purpose of this filing is to amend the NSCC rules as they
relate to membership disqualification criteria in an effort to create
more uniformity between the rules of NSCC and the rules of NSCC's
affiliates, the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation (``FICC'') and The
Depository Trust Company (``DTC'').
    Currently, Addendum S of NSCC's rules sets forth its policy as to
standards relating to competence for membership. Addendum S includes
both objective and subjective factors that may be considered by NSCC in
its evaluation of an applicant or of the continued membership of a
member. Going forward, NSCC seeks to amend its rules to only include
those disqualification criteria that can be objectively monitored by
Risk Management staff. For example, NSCC proposes to delete from its
rules specific references to criteria that may not be reported in a
regulatory background check, such as an entity being subject to
``heightened supervision'' by a regulatory body. NSCC is proposing to
include in its rules a general provision to permit consideration of
events with respect to an applicant or member that may not be expressly
mentioned but that may impact an applicant's or member's suitability as
a member.
    In addition, pursuant to NSCC's current disqualification criteria,
NSCC can consider the criteria with respect to a person or entity that
has ``significant managerial responsibility'' over the applicant or
member. Because it is not easily ascertainable as to what entities or
individuals have ``significant managerial responsibility'' over a
particular entity, NSCC is proposing to amend these provisions in the
rules so that they are consistent with its internal surveillance
procedures. Going forward, NSCC will extend the reach of certain
disqualification criteria to persons and entities acting as
``controlling management,'' which will include those officers of the
entity that are currently screened by Risk Management staff pursuant to
internal procedures.
    Specifically, NSCC's disqualification criteria will now include:
    (i) An applicant or member being subject to statutory
disqualification as defined in Section 3(a)(39) of that Act.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ While this provision currently exists in the rules, it will
be moved within the rules and will be grouped with all other
disqualification criteria. The NSCC rules will also provide that
applicants and members must notify NSCC if any member of its
controlling management is or becomes subject to a statutory
disqualification, as defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (ii) An applicant, member, or its controlling management making a
misstatement of material facts; committing fraudulent acts; or being

convicted of any of the crimes listed in the rule.
    (iii) An applicant, member, or its controlling management being
permanently or temporarily enjoined from acting on behalf of a
financial institution such as a broker-dealer.
    (iv) An applicant or member's suspension or termination from
participation in a national securities association, exchange registered
under the Exchange Act, a self-regulatory organization, clearing
agency, or securities depository.
    Pursuant to the proposed change, NSCC will continue to be able to
cease to act for a member when any of the factors in sections (i)
through (iv) above are present. Addendum S will be struck entirely from
the rules, and the listed disqualification criteria will be included in
NSCC's proposed Rule 2A ``Initial Membership Requirements.'' \4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ NSCC has also filed, and the Commission has published notice
of, proposed rule change SR-NSCC-2006-17 which seeks to reorganize
NSCC's rules related to membership standards and membership
requirements. Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58100 (July 3,
2008), 73 FR 39759 (July 10, 2008) [SR-NSCC-2006-17].

III. Discussion

    Section 19(b) of the Act directs the Commission to approve a
proposed rule change of a self-regulatory organization if it finds that
such proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the
Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to such
organization. Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act requires that the rules
of a clearing agency be designed to remove impediments to the
perfection of a national system for the prompt and accurate clearance
and settlement of securities transactions and are not designed to
permit unfair discrimination in the admission of participants or among
participants in the use of the clearing agency.\5\ The Commission
believes that NSCC's rule change, which refines NSCC's rules and
procedures with regard to applicants and members, is consistent with
these obligations and in general will protect investors and the public
interest.

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

IV. Conclusion

    On the basis of the foregoing, the Commission finds that the
proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and
in particular Section 17A of the Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder. In approving the proposed rule change, the Commission
considered the proposal's impact on efficiency, competition, and
capital formation.
    It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,
that the proposed rule change (File No. SR-NSCC-2007-08) be and hereby
is approved.
