Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Submission for OMB 

Review; Comment Request; 

Residential Basement Floodproofing 

Certification 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Department of 

Homeland Security. 

ACTION: 30 Day reinstatement notice and 

request for comments. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency 

Management Agency (FEMA), as part of 

its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

invites the general public to take this 

opportunity to comment on a 

reinstatement, without change, of a 

previously approved information 

collection for which approval has 

expired. FEMA will submit the 

information collection abstracted below 

to the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for review and clearance in 

accordance with the requirements of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The 

submission will describe the nature of 

the information collection, the 

categories of respondents, the estimated 

burden (i.e., the time, effort and 

resources used by respondents to 

respond) and cost, and the actual data 

collection instruments used. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before March 22, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/ 

PRAMain. Find this particular 

information collection by selecting 

‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open 

for Public Comments’’ or by using the 

search function. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Requests for additional information or 

copies of the information collection 

should be made to Director, Information 

Management Division, email address

Analyst, Federal Insurance Directorate,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Congress 

created the National Flood Insurance 

Program (NFIP) through enactment of 

the National Flood Insurance Act of 

1968 (NFIA) (Title XIII of Pub. L. 90– 

448, 82 Stat. 476), found at 42 U.S.C. 

4001 et seq. The NFIP is a Federal 

program enabling property owners in 

participating communities to purchase 

insurance as a protection against flood 

losses in exchange for state and 

community floodplain management 

requirements that reduce the risk of 

future flood damages. Communities 

participate in the NFIP based on an 

agreement between the community and 

FEMA. If a community adopts and 

enforces a floodplain management 

ordinance to reduce future flood risk to 

new construction in floodplains, FEMA 

will make flood insurance available 

within the community as a financial 

protection against flood losses. 

Accordingly, the NFIP is comprised of 

three key activities: Flood insurance, 

floodplain management, and flood 

hazard mapping. 

As part of the minimum floodplain 

management requirements established 

by FEMA, NFIP participating 

communities generally must require that 

all new construction and substantial 

improvements of residential structures 

within areas identified by FEMA as 

Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHA) 

Zones A1–30, AE and AH zones have 

the lowest floor, including the 

basement, elevated to or above the base 

flood level. See 44 CFR 60.3(c)(2). 

However, FEMA may grant exceptions 

to this requirement to communities that 

are not subject to tidal flooding, given 

the communities adopt standards for 

floodproofed residential basements 

below the base flood. 44 CFR 60.6(c). 

Communities requesting this exception 

must demonstrate that ‘‘areas of special 

flood hazard in which basements will be 

permitted are subject to shallow and 

low velocity flooding and that there is 

adequate flood warning time to ensure 

that all residents are notified of 

impending floods.’’ 44 CFR 60.6(c)(1). 

Communities seeking the exception 

must also adopt certain floodplain 

management measures regarding the 

floodproofing of basements. See 44 CFR 

60.6(c)(2). Such measures include that a 

professional engineer or architect 

inspect new or substantially improved 

buildings with basements and ‘‘certify 

that the basement design and methods 

of construction proposed are in 

accordance with accepted standards of 

practice for meeting the [residential 

basement floodproofing requirements]. 

44 CFR 60.6(c)(2)(iv). This proposed 

information collection consists of the 

‘‘Residential Basement Floodproofing 

Certificate,’’ which is used to document 

compliance with 44 CFR 60.6(c)(2)(iv). 

This proposed information collection 

previously published in the Federal 

Register on April 7, 2020, at 85 FR 

19496 with a 60-day public comment 

period. FEMA received three comments 

germane to this information collection 

(FEMA–2020–0010–0004; FEMA–2020– 

0010–0005; and FEMA–2020–0010– 

0003). FEMA considers one comment 

non-germane to the information 

collection because it merely reads 

‘‘Docket ID FEMA 2020–0010 OMB 

1660–0033’’. 

In the first germane comment, FEMA– 

2020–0010–0004, the anonymous 

commenter recommended that ‘‘[t]he 

form should be updated/reviewed to 

reflect/evaluate whether or not all or 

any of the April 2020 Flood Insurance 

Manual changes for floodproofing rating 

credit apply; based on the Flood 

Insurance Manual the updated guidance 

appears to be specific to 

nonresidential.’’ FEMA reviewed the 

April 2020 Flood Insurance Manual 

(available at https://go.usa.gov/xwGu2) 

and found that it only reflected changes 

to non-residential floodproofing 

requirements. This information 

collection applies only to residential 

basement floodproofing requirements, 

so FEMA finds no reason to adjust this 

information collection based on changes 

to the April 2020 Flood Insurance 

Manual. 

In the second germane comment, 

FEMA–2020–0010–0005, the 

anonymous commenter recommended
