Procedures

Interior.

ACTION: Proposed rule; extension of

comment period.

SUMMARY: This action extends the

comment period an additional 60 days

on the Department of the Interior’s

that, except as otherwise provided by

law or other regulation, a decision will

be stayed, if it is appealed, until there

is a dispositive decision on the appeal.

DATES: Comments are due to the agency

on or before December 2, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to

Director, Office of Hearings and

Appeals, U.S. Department of the

Interior, 4015 Wilson Blvd., Arlington,

VA 22203. Comments received will be

available for inspection during regular

business hours (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) in the

Office of the Director, Office of Hearings

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August

19, 1997, the Department of the Interior

proposed to amend the regulation

contained at 43 CFR 4.21 (August 28,

1997, 62 FR 45606.) Comments to this

proposed rule were to be received on or

before September 29, 1997.

In a letter dated September 4, 1997,

from the National Mining Association

(NMA) to the Director of the Office of

Hearings and Appeals (OHA), U.S.

Department of the Interior, the NMA

requested a 60-day extension of the

comment period for this proposed

amendment because the existing

comment period did not allow adequate

opportunity for comment, and it needed

more time to present the views of its

member companies. Also, in a letter

dated September 12, 1997, from the

Rocky Mountain Oil and Gas

Association (RMOGA) to the Director,

OHA, that organization requested a 60-

day extension of the comment period.

The RMOGA stated that the current 30-

day comment period would not allow

the industry adequate time to carefully

analyze the proposed rule to determine

the potential effects, if any, on oil and

gas activities on public lands.

The OHA has determined that an

extension of time to obtain the

comments on the proposed rule from

NMA and RMOGA is warranted and

therefore, the requested extension is

granted. This notice announces that 60-

day extension of the comment period.

Dated: September 24, 1997.

Brooks B. Yeager,

Acting Assistant Secretary—Policy,

Management and Budget.

Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency

Management Agency (FEMA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: Technical information or

comments are requested on the

proposed base (1% annual chance) flood

elevations and proposed base flood

elevation modifications for the

communities listed below. The base

flood elevations and modified base

flood elevations 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

remain qualified for participation in the

National Flood Insurance Program

(NFIP).

DATES: The comment period is ninety

(90) days following the second

publication of this proposed rule in a

newspaper of local circulation in each

community.

ADDRESSES: The proposed base flood

elevations 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 following table.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Frederick H. Sharrocks, Jr., Chief,

Hazard Identification Branch, Mitigation

Directorate, 500 C Street SW.,

Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646–2796.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Federal Emergency Management Agency

proposes to make determinations of base

flood elevations and modified base

flood elevations for each community

listed below, in accordance with Section

110 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act

of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104, and 44 CFR

67.4(a).

These proposed base flood and

modified base flood elevations, 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.

These proposed elevations are used to
