Guard’s ability to accomplish its 

operational mission requirements 

throughout the Pacific Northwest and 

Arctic operational areas from Base 

Seattle. The No-Action Alternative 

would also leave requirements 

unfulfilled. The Coast Guard would not 

be able to continually comply with its 

statutory mandated missions effectively 

and efficiently. This alternative was 

analyzed in the PEIS to comply with 

Council of Environmental Quality (CEQ) 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) regulations (40 Code of Federal 

Regulations [CFR] § 1502.14[c]) and to 

provide a comparative baseline against 

which to evaluate impacts of the 

Proposed Action and alternatives. 

Resource areas analyzed in the Final 

PEIS include land use and coastal zone 

management, geological resources, 

water resources, transportation, air 

quality, biological resources, 

socioeconomics and environmental 

justice, cultural resources, noise, 

utilities and public services, hazardous 

materials and wastes, visual resources, 

recreational resources, and greenhouse 

gases and climate change. 

Based on the analysis presented in the 

Final PEIS, potentially significant direct 

or indirect adverse impacts could occur 

to land use, socioeconomics and 

environmental justice, and cultural 

resources. Adverse cumulative impacts 

could occur to geological resources, 

water resources, biological resources, 

cultural resources, hazardous materials 

and wastes, and visual resources. 

Impacts to all other resource areas 

would be less-than-significant or 

beneficial. Base facilities and 

infrastructure improvements represent a 

long-term development program that 

will require a multi-year capital 

investment strategy. Specific projects 

may require additional NEPA evaluation 

and compliance with other 

environmental laws and regulations 

when they are programmed for 

implementation. 

Following a 30-day waiting period, 

after publication of the Environmental 

Protection Agency’s NOA in the Federal 

Register, the Coast Guard will announce 

its Record of Decision, which will be 

published in the Federal Register.

Determinations 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Department of 

Homeland Security. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Comments are requested on 

proposed flood hazard determinations, 

which may include additions or 

modifications of any Base Flood 

Elevation (BFE), base flood depth, 

Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) 

boundary or zone designation, or 

regulatory floodway on the Flood 

Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and 

where applicable, in the supporting 

Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports for 

the communities listed in the table 

below. The purpose of this notice is to 

seek general information and comment 

regarding the preliminary FIRM, and 

where applicable, the FIS report that the 

Federal Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) has provided to the affected 

communities. The FIRM and FIS report 

are the basis of the floodplain 

management measures that the 

community is required either to adopt 

or to show evidence of having in effect 

in order to qualify or remain qualified 

for participation in the National Flood 

Insurance Program (NFIP).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FEMA 

proposes to make flood hazard 

determinations 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 flood hazard 

determinations, 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 flood hazard determinations are 

used to meet the floodplain 

management requirements of the NFIP. 

The communities affected by the 

flood hazard determinations are 

provided in the tables below. Any 

request for reconsideration of the 

revised flood hazard information shown 

on the Preliminary FIRM and FIS report 

that satisfies the data requirements 

outlined in 44 CFR 67.6(b) is considered 

an appeal. Comments unrelated to the 

flood hazard determinations also will be 

considered before the FIRM and FIS 

report become effective. 

Use of a Scientific Resolution Panel 

(SRP) is available to communities in 

support of the appeal resolution 

process. SRPs are independent panels of 

experts in hydrology, hydraulics, and 

other pertinent sciences established to 

review conflicting scientific and 

technical data and provide 

recommendations for resolution. Use of 

the SRP only may be exercised after 

FEMA and local communities have been 

engaged in a collaborative consultation 

process for at least 60 days without a 

mutually acceptable resolution of an 

appeal. Additional information 

regarding the SRP process can be found 

online at https://www.floodsrp.org/pdfs/ 

srp_overview.pdf. 

The watersheds and/or communities 

affected are listed in the tables below. 

The Preliminary FIRM, and where 

applicable, FIS report for each 

community are available for inspection 

at both the online location https://

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND 

SECURITY 

Transportation Security Administration 

Intent To Request Extension From 

OMB of One Current Public Collection 

of Information: Pipeline Operator 

Security Information 

AGENCY: Transportation Security 

Administration, Department of 

Homeland Security. 

ACTION: 60-Day notice. 

SUMMARY: The Transportation Security 

Administration (TSA) invites public 

comment on one currently approved 

Information Collection Request (ICR), 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) control number 1652–0055, 

abstracted below that we will submit to 

OMB for an extension in compliance 

with the Paperwork Reduction Act 

(PRA). The ICR describes the nature of 

the information collection and its 

expected burden. Specifically, the 

collection involves the collection of 

pipeline security incident data, and the 

cybersecurity coordinator(s) and 

alternate(s) contact information. 

DATES: Send your comments by January 

14, 2025. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be emailed 

to TSAPRA@tsa.dhs.gov or delivered to 

the TSA PRA Officer, Information 

Technology (IT), TSA–11, 

Transportation Security Administration, 

6595 Springfield Center Drive, 

Springfield, VA 20598–6011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Christina A. Walsh at the above address, 

or by telephone (571) 227–2062. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Comments Invited 

In accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 

et seq.), an agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

unless it displays a valid OMB control 

number. The ICR documentation will be 

available at https://www.reginfo.gov 

upon its submission to OMB. Therefore, 

in preparation for OMB review and 

approval of the following information 

collection, TSA is soliciting comments 

to— 

(1) Evaluate whether the proposed 

information requirement is necessary for 

the proper performance of the functions 

of the agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden; 

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(4) Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including using 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. 

Information Collection Requirement 

OMB Control Number 1652–0055; 

Pipeline Operator Security Information. 

In addition to TSA’s broad 

responsibility and authority for 

‘‘security in all modes of transportation 

. . . including security responsibilities 

. . . over modes of transportation [,]’’ 

see 49 U.S.C. 114, TSA is required to 

issue recommendations for pipeline 

security measures and conduct 

inspections to assess implementation of 

the recommendations. See sec. 1557 of 

the Implementing Recommendations of 

the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007, 

Public Law 110–53 (August 3, 2007). 

Consistent with these requirements, 

TSA produced Pipeline Security 

Guidelines in December 2010 and 2011, 

with an update published in April 2021. 

These voluntary guidelines were 

developed with the assistance of 

industry and government members of 

the Pipeline Sector and Government 

Coordinating Councils, industry 

association representatives, and other 

interested parties. 

Voluntary Collection. As the lead 

Federal agency for pipeline security and 

consistent with its statutory authorities, 

TSA needs to be notified of all (1) 

incidents that may indicate a deliberate 

attempt to disrupt pipeline operations 

and (2) activities that could be 

precursors to such an attempt. The 

Pipeline Security Guidelines encourage 

pipeline operators to notify the 

Transportation Security Operations 

Center via phone or email as soon as 

possible if incidents occur or if there is 

other reason to believe that a terrorist 

incident may be planned or may have 

occurred. When voluntarily contacting 

the Transportation Security Operations 

Center, the Guidelines request pipeline 

operators to provide as much 

information about the incident as 

possible. 

Mandatory Collection. In May 2021, 

TSA issued a Security Directive (SD) 

series with requirements for owner/ 

operators of hazardous liquid and 

natural gas pipelines and liquefied 

natural gas facilities that TSA 

designated as critical. The SD series 

included two mandatory information 

collections: 

1. TSA requires all owner/operators 

subject to the SD’s requirements to 

report actual or potential cybersecurity 

incidents affecting their information 

technology and operational technology 

systems to the Cybersecurity and 

Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) 

within 24 hours of discovery, using the 

CISA Incident Reporting System.
