Agency Information Collection

Activities: Submission for OMB

Review; Comment Request

ACTION: Notice and request for

comments.

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency

Management Agency is submitting a

request for review and approval of a

collection of information under the

emergency processing procedures in

Office of Management and Budget

(OMB) regulation 5 CFR 1320.13. FEMA

is requesting the collection of

information be approved by January 21,

1997, for use through July 31, 1997.

Supplementary Information. The

Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and

Emergency Act, Public Law 93–288, as

amended, authorizes the President to

provide assistance to individuals and to

State and local governments to help

them to respond to and recover from a

disaster. Certain types of private

nonprofit organizations may receive

assistance also. In order to receive

Federal assistance, i.e., Federal grants,

State and local officials and officials of

eligible private nonprofit organizations

who have a responsibility for response

to a major disaster and for the

restoration of facilities in the aftermath

of such events must provide information

to FEMA. The information is required in

accordance with FEMA regulations 44

CFR Part 206, Subpart G and guidance

published in FEMA 286, Public

Assistance Guide.

Collection of Information

Title. Damage Survey Report-Data

Sheet, Building Survey, Pumping

Equipment Survey, Bridge Survey.

Type of Information Collection.

Reinstatement, without change, of a

previously approved collection for

which OMB approval has expired.

OMB Number: 3067–0223.

Abstract. Following a major disaster

declaration by the President, the State

and Disaster Recovery Manager will

arrange for damage surveys to be made

by damage survey inspection teams. A

Damage Survey Report-Data Sheet will

be completed by a Federal/State

inspection team, escorted by a local

representative for each damaged facility

and for each item of emergency and

permanent work identified by the local

representative. The inspection teams

will inspect every damaged facility and

review all applicable records to

determine the extent of the disaster

damage, the scope of eligible work, and

the estimated cost of that work. The

inspection teams do not randomly

search for damaged facilities but rely on

applicants to prepare for the damage

survey inspections before the arrival of

the inspectors (through the

identification of all damaged facilities

and the projection of restoration/repair

costs, etc.), and be prepared to guide the

team to each site.

The Damage Survey Report-Data

Sheet is designed to itemize field

recommendations which are attached as

supporting justification to the

applicant’s project application. The

following forms are supplements to the

Damage Survey Report: FEMA Form 90–

3, Pumping Survey, provides additional

information on pumping equipment

damage sustained during a disaster.

FEMA Form 90–51, Building Survey,

provides additional information on

damage to buildings, and FEMA Form

90–53, Bridge Survey, provides

additional information on bridge

damage sustained during a disaster.

Prior to approval, FEMA performs an

engineering analysis of each project

application and the accompanying

damage survey report-data sheet, to

ensure the restoration work and

associated costs meet FEMA eligibility

criteria.

Survey Report-Data Sheet—12,000
