V. Submission to Congress and the

Comptroller General

The Congressional Review Act, 5

U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the

Small Business Regulatory Enforcement

Fairness Act of 1996, generally provides

that before a rule may take effect, the

Agency promulgating the rule must

submit a rule report, which includes a

copy of the rule, to each House of the

Congress and to the Comptroller General

of the United States. EPA will submit a

report containing this rule and other

required information to the U.S. Senate,

the U.S. House of Representatives, and

the Comptroller General of the United

States prior to publication of this rule in

the Federal Register. This is a technical

correction to the Federal Register and is

not a ‘‘major rule’’ as defined by 5

U.S.C. 804(2).

FEDERAL EMERGENCY

MANAGEMENT AGENCY

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket No. FEMA–7735]

Suspension of Community Eligibility

AGENCY: Federal Emergency

Management Agency, FEMA.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This rule identifies

communities, where the sale of flood

insurance has been authorized under

the National Flood Insurance Program

(NFIP), that are suspended on the

effective dates listed within this rule

because of noncompliance with the

floodplain management requirements of

the program. If the Federal Emergency

Management Agency (FEMA) receives

documentation that the community has

adopted the required floodplain

management measures prior to the

effective suspension date given in this

rule, the suspension will be withdrawn

by publication in the Federal Register.

EFFECTIVE DATES: The effective date of

each community’s suspension is the

third date (‘‘Susp.’’) listed in the third

column of the following tables.

ADDRESSES: If you wish to determine

whether a particular community was

suspended on the suspension date,

contact the appropriate FEMA Regional

Office or the NFIP servicing contractor.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Donna M. Dannels, Branch Chief,

Policy, Assessment and Outreach

Division, Mitigation Directorate, 500 C

Street, S.W., Room 411, Washington,

D.C. 20472, (202) 646–3098.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP

enables property owners to purchase

flood insurance which is generally not

otherwise available. In return,

communities agree to adopt and

administer local floodplain management

aimed at protecting lives and new

construction from future flooding.

Section 1315 of the National Flood

Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42

U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance

coverage as authorized under the

National Flood Insurance Program, 42

U.S.C. 4001 et seq., unless an

appropriate public body adopts

adequate floodplain management

measures with effective enforcement

measures. The communities listed in

this document no longer meet that

statutory requirement for compliance

with program regulations, 44 CFR part

59 et seq. Accordingly, the communities

will be suspended on the effective date

in the third column. As of that date,

flood insurance will no longer be

available in the community. However,

some of these communities may adopt

and submit the required documentation

of legally enforceable floodplain

management measures after this rule is

published but prior to the actual

suspension date. These communities

will not be suspended and will continue

their eligibility for the sale of insurance.

A notice withdrawing the suspension of

the communities will be published in

the Federal Register.

In addition, the Federal Emergency

Management Agency has identified the

special flood hazard areas in these

communities by publishing a Flood

Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). The date of

the FIRM if one has been published, is

indicated in the fourth column of the

table. No direct Federal financial

assistance (except assistance pursuant to

the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief

and Emergency Assistance Act not in

connection with a flood) may legally be

provided for construction or acquisition

of buildings in the identified special

flood hazard area of communities not

participating in the NFIP and identified

for more than a year, on the Federal

Emergency Management Agency’s

initial flood insurance map of the

community as having flood-prone areas

(section 202(a) of the Flood Disaster

Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.

4106(a), as amended). This prohibition

against certain types of Federal

assistance becomes effective for the

communities listed on the date shown

in the last column. The Associate

Director finds that notice and public

comment under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are

impracticable and unnecessary because

communities listed in this final rule

have been adequately notified.

Each community receives a 6-month,

90-day, and 30-day notification

addressed to the Chief Executive Officer

that the community will be suspended

unless the required floodplain

management measures are met prior to

30546 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 93 / Friday, May 12, 2000 / Rules and Regulations

the effective suspension date. Since

these notifications have been made, this

final rule may take effect within less

than 30 days.

National Environmental Policy Act

This rule is categorically excluded

from the requirements of 44 CFR Part

10, Environmental Considerations. No

environmental impact assessment has

been prepared.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

The Associate Director has

determined that this rule is exempt from

the requirements of the Regulatory

Flexibility Act because the National

Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as

amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits

flood insurance coverage unless an

appropriate public body adopts

adequate floodplain management

measures with effective enforcement

measures. The communities listed no

longer comply with the statutory

requirements, and after the effective

date, flood insurance will no longer be

available in the communities unless

they take remedial action.

Regulatory Classification

This final rule is not a significant

regulatory action under the criteria of

section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 of

September 30, 1993, Regulatory

Planning and Review, 58 FR 51735.

Paperwork Reduction Act

This rule does not involve any

collection of information for purposes of

the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.

Executive Order 12612, Federalism

This rule involves no policies that

have federalism implications under

Executive Order 12612, Federalism,

October 26, 1987, 3 CFR, 1987 Comp.,

p. 252.

Executive Order 12778, Civil Justice

55195, 3 CFR, 1991 Comp., p. 309.

Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico; Texas

Closure

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Adjustment of the beginning

date of the Texas closure.

SUMMARY: NMFS announces an

adjustment to the start of the annual

closure of the shrimp fishery in the

exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off

Texas. The closure is normally from

May 15 to July 15 each year. For 2000,

the closure will begin on May 11. The

Texas closure is intended to prohibit the

harvest of brown shrimp during the

major period of emigration from Texas

estuaries to the Gulf of Mexico so the

shrimp may reach a larger, more

valuable size and to prevent the waste

of brown shrimp that would be

discarded in fishing operations because

of their small size.

DATES: The EEZ off Texas is closed to

trawl fishing, except for trawling for

royal red shrimp beyond the 100-fathom

(183 meter) depth contour, from 30

minutes after sunset, May 11, 2000, to

30 minutes after sunset, July 15, 2000,

unless the latter date is changed through

notification in the Federal Register.
