44 CFR Part 65 

[Docket ID FEMA–2011–0002; Internal 

Agency Docket No. FEMA–B–1206] 

Changes in Flood Elevation 

Determinations 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, DHS. 

ACTION: Interim rule. 

SUMMARY: This interim rule lists 

communities where modification of the 

Base (1% annual-chance) Flood 

Elevations (BFEs) is appropriate because 

of new scientific or technical data. New 

flood insurance premium rates will be 

calculated from the modified BFEs for 

new buildings and their contents. 

DATES: These modified BFEs are 

currently in effect on the dates listed in 

the table below and revise the Flood 

Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) in effect 

prior to this determination for the listed 

communities. 

From the date of the second 

publication of these changes in a 

newspaper of local circulation, any 

person has ninety (90) days in which to 

request through the community that the 

Deputy Federal Insurance and 

Mitigation Administrator reconsider the 

changes. The modified BFEs may be 

changed during the 90-day period. 

ADDRESSES: The modified BFEs for each 

community are available for inspection 

at the office of the Chief Executive 

Officer of each community. The 

respective addresses are listed in the 

table below. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis 

Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering 

Management Branch, Federal Insurance 

and Mitigation Administration, Federal 

Emergency Management Agency, 500 C 

Street, SW., Washington, DC 20472, 

(202) 646–4064, or (e-mail) 

luis.rodriguez1@dhs.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

modified BFEs are not listed for each 

community in this interim rule. 

However, the address of the Chief 

Executive Officer of the community 

where the modified BFE determinations 

are available for inspection is provided. 

Any request for reconsideration must 

be based on knowledge of changed 

conditions or new scientific or technical 

data. 

The modifications are made pursuant 

to section 201 of the Flood Disaster 

Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105, 

and are in accordance with the National 

Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C. 

4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65. 

For rating purposes, the currently 

effective community number is shown 

and must be used for all new policies 

and renewals. 

The modified BFEs are the basis for 

the floodplain management measures 

that the community is required either to 

adopt or to show evidence of being 

already in effect in order to qualify or 

to remain qualified for participation in 

the National Flood Insurance Program 

(NFIP). 

These 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. The 

changes in BFEs are in accordance with 

44 CFR 65.4. 

National Environmental Policy Act. 

This interim 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. 

Regulatory Classification. This 

interim 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. 

Executive Order 13132, Federalism. 

This interim rule involves no policies 

that have federalism implications under 

Executive Order 13132, Federalism. 

Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice 

Reform. This interim rule meets the 

applicable standards of Executive Order 

12988.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

47 CFR Part 25 

[IB Docket No. 06–123; FCC 11–93] 

Service Rules and Policies for the 

Broadcasting Satellite Service (BSS) 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: In this document, the Federal 

Communications Commission adopts 

rules to mitigate space path interference 

between the 17/24 GHz BroadcastingSatellite Service (BSS) space-to-Earth 

transmissions and the feeder link 

receiving antennas of Direct Broadcast 

Satellite Service (DBS) space stations 

that operate in the same frequency band. 

We adopt an off-axis power flux density 

(pfd) coordination trigger for 17/24 GHz 

BSS space stations. We also require a 

minimum orbital separation of 0.2 

degrees between 17/24 GHz BSS space 

stations and DBS space stations. We 

place bounds on orbital eccentricity and 

inclination of 17/24 GHz BSS space 

stations and condition the protection of 

DBS networks to certain assumed limits 

on eccentricity and inclination. By these 

actions, we facilitate the introduction of 

the 17/24 GHz BSS and anticipate that 

it will provide new and innovative 

services, including video, audio, data, 

and video-on-demand, to consumers in 

the United States and promote increased 

competition among satellite and 

terrestrial services. 

We revised our informational 

requirements to require 17/24 GHz BSS 

space station applicants to file pfd 

calculations (and if the pfd coordination 

trigger is exceeded, to file coordination 

information), and to file predicted and 

measured transmitting antenna off-axis 

gain information. We also require both 

17/24 GHz BSS applicants and DBS 

applicants to file maximum orbital 

eccentricity information with their 

application. Finally, we adopt 

procedures to enable pending applicants 

and existing authorization holders to 

file relevant information related to these 

rules. 

DATES: Effective September 14, 2011, 

except §§ 25.114(d)(15)(iv), 

25.114(d)(18), 25.264(a), (b), (c), (d) and 

(f), of the Commission’s rules. These 

requirements contained herein are 

subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act 

(PRA) and have not been approved by 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). The Commission will publish a 

document in the Federal Register 

announcing the effective date of these 

requirements.
