Federal Emergency Management 

Agency 

[Docket ID: FEMA–2010–0065] 

Public Meetings of National Flood 

Insurance Program (NFIP) Reform 

Effort 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, DHS. 

ACTION: Announcement of public 

meetings. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces two 

public meetings of the National Flood 

Insurance Program (NFIP) Reform Effort. 

In performing its mission, the Federal 

Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) believes it is important to 

continually update stakeholders on its 

programs and answer any questions and 

listen to comments from them on how 

its programs can be more efficient and 

effective at meeting the needs of the 

public. To this end, FEMA has engaged 

in a comprehensive reform effort to 

address the concerns of the wide array 

of stakeholders involved in the ongoing 

debate about the NFIP. FEMA chose a 

participatory policy analysis framework 

to guide the NFIP Reform effort. Policy 

analysis employs systematic inquiry and 

evaluation to assess policy alternatives. 

The participatory policy analysis 

process allows public decisions to be 

made in a structured, defensible, and 

collaborative manner. 

The effort is comprised of three 

phases designed to engage the greatest 

number of stakeholders and consider 

the largest breadth of public policy 

options. Phase I focused on the capture 

and analysis of stakeholder concerns 

and recommendations. During Phase II, 

FEMA performed additional analysis of 

existing data and identified a set of 

evaluation criteria. In Phase III, a 

portfolio of public policy alternatives is 

being developed and will be analyzed 

using the evaluation criteria. The 

resulting recommendations will be 

reported to FEMA leadership. The 

purpose of the public meetings is to 

describe, update, and explain straw man 

policy alternatives and to answer 

questions and listen to comments from 

interested stakeholders. Additional 

information on the straw man policy 

alternatives will be made available prior 

to the meeting via the NFIP Reform Web 

site and will be posted to Docket ID: 

FEMA–2010–0065. 

In addition, through these public 

meetings, FEMA will accept stakeholder 

input of the policy evaluation process 

through the use of a pair-wise 

comparison method. The pair-wise tool 

is also available via the NFIP Reform 

Web site at http://www.fema.gov/ 

business/nfip/nfip_reform.shtm.
