• Hawaii County, HI (DR 4366, an 

additional $23,720,000). Extraordinary 

circumstance: At the time of the December 

2019 allocation FEMA Public Assistance (PA) 

estimates were still being discussed with 

state officials. The PA estimate at the time of 

the 2019 allocation was just $1.5 million 

with local match (‘‘unmet need’’) of 

$378,000. The updated data from FEMA is 

that DR 4366 has $96 million in Category C 

to G needs with a $24 million match 

requirement which substantially increases 

unmet needs. 

• Northern Marianas (DR 4396 and DR 

4404, an additional $10,378,000). 

Extraordinary circumstance: FEMA’s 

Permanent Housing Construction (PHC) 

program is seldom activated by FEMA so it 

requires a special consideration for HUD’s 

calculation of unmet needs. In HUD’s 

December 3rd allocation announcement we 

had reduced the housing needs estimate for 

the Northern Marianas based on a FEMA 

early estimate that 455 homes would be 

repaired or replaced by the PHC program and 

thus would not need CDBG–DR assistance. 

At the time, the program was in its early 

implementation and the number of homes 

served was expected to change. Due to the 

unusual nature of this FEMA program, HUD 

requested from FEMA in May 2020 a revised 

estimate of how many homes would be 

served. That revised FEMA PHC estimate is 

that 300 homes are now expected to be 

served by PHC instead of the previously 

estimated 455 homes. This reduction in the 

FEMA PHC leads to an increase in the 

Northern Marianas unmet CDBG–DR need 

estimate by 155 homes. 

• Texas (DR 4466, an additional 

$14,769,000). Extraordinary circumstance: 

This disaster was declared on October 4th 

and the data used for the December 3rd 

allocation had been extracted from FEMA’s 

systems on November 15, 2019. In general, 

HUD’s experience is that FEMA data is most 

complete for the purpose of calculating 

CDBG–DR unmet needs approximately 90 

days after a disaster declaration. DR 4466 was 

the only disaster in 2019 that had been 

declared within 90 days of the November 

15th data extraction. For this reason, HUD 

requested a refresh of the FEMA data for DR 

4466 which identified 252 additional homes 

with serious damage than had been identified 

in the prior allocation leading to the 

increased estimate of need. 

• Puerto Rico (DR 4473, $36,424,000). 

Extraordinary circumstance: On December 

28, 2019, Puerto Rico experienced a major 

disaster (DR 4473) that has continued for 

some months with continuing after-shocks. 

This is a disaster occurring in both 2019 and 

2020. Because it initially occurred in 2019 it 

is eligible for funding from Public Law 116– 

20. However, this disaster is on-going. FEMA 

had closed the application period for the IHP 

program but due to a serious after-shock on 

May 2, 2020, FEMA reopened the application 

period for this disaster. This allocation is 

based on the data before FEMA reopened the 

application period.

from employers, associations, 

professional organizations, or other 

geospatial organizations. Nominations

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Committee conducts its operations in 

accordance with the provisions of the 

GDA and the FACA. It reports to the 

Secretary of the Interior through the 

FGDC and functions solely as an 

advisory body. The Committee provides 

recommendations and advice to the DOI 

and the FGDC on policy and 

management issues related to the 

effective operation of Federal geospatial 

programs. 

The NGAC includes up to 30 

members, selected to generally achieve 

a balanced representation of the 

viewpoints of the various stakeholders 

involved in national geospatial 

activities. NGAC members are 

appointed for staggered terms, and 

nominations received through this call 

for nominations may be used to fill 

vacancies on the Committee that will 

become available in 2021 and 2022. 

Nominations will be reviewed by the

selection and appointment of 

Committee members will be made by 

the Secretary of the Interior. 

The Committee meets approximately 

3–4 times per year. Committee members 

will serve without compensation, but 

travel and per diem costs will be 

provided by USGS. The USGS will also 

provide necessary support services to 

the Committee. 

Committee meetings are open to the 

public. Notice of committee meetings 

are published in the Federal Register at 

least 15 days before the date of the 

meeting. The public will have an
