Suspension of Community Eligibility 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, DHS. 

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 scheduled for 

suspension 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 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES

11896 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 43 / Thursday, March 5, 2015 / Rules and Regulations 

rule, the suspension will not occur and 

a notice of this will be provided by 

publication in the Federal Register on a 

subsequent date. Also, information 

identifying the current participation 

status of a community can be obtained 

from FEMA’s Community Status Book 

(CSB). The CSB is available at http://

www.fema.gov/fema/csb.shtm. 

DATES: The effective date of each 

community’s scheduled suspension is 

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

third column of the following tables. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If 

you want to determine whether a 

particular community was suspended 

on the suspension date or for further 

information, contact Bret Gates, Federal 

Insurance and Mitigation 

Administration, Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, 500 C Street SW., 

Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646–4133. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP 

enables property owners to purchase 

Federal flood insurance that is not 

otherwise generally available from 

private insurers. In return, communities 

agree to adopt and administer local 

floodplain management measures 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 the sale of NFIP flood 

insurance 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. 

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. We recognize that 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 

to be eligible for the sale of NFIP flood 

insurance. A notice withdrawing the 

suspension of such communities will be 

published in the Federal Register. 

In addition, FEMA publishes a Flood 

Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that 

identifies the Special Flood Hazard 

Areas (SFHAs) in these communities. 

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 be provided for construction 

or acquisition of buildings in identified 

SFHAs for communities not 

participating in the NFIP and identified 

for more than a year on FEMA’s initial 

FIRM for 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 

Administrator finds that notice and 

public comment procedures 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 6-month, 

90-day, and 30-day notification letters 

addressed to the Chief Executive Officer 

stating that the community will be 

suspended unless the required 

floodplain management measures are 

met prior to the effective suspension 

date. Since these notifications were 

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 

Administrator 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, Section 1315, 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 remedial action 

takes place. 

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. 

Executive Order 13132, Federalism. 

This rule involves no policies that have

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: NMFS issues regulations to 

implement Amendment 100 to the 

Fishery Management Plan for 

Groundfish of the Bering Sea and 

Aleutian Islands Management Area 

(BSAI FMP) and Amendment 91 to the 

Fishery Management Plan for 

Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska (GOA 

FMP). This final rule adds regulations to 

improve reporting of grenadiers, limit 

retention of grenadiers, and prevent 

direct fishing for grenadiers by federally 

permitted groundfish fishermen. This 

final rule is necessary to limit and 

monitor the incidental catch of 

grenadiers in the groundfish fisheries. 

This action is intended to promote the 

goals and objectives of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and 

Management Act, the FMPs, and other 

applicable law.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final 

rule implements Amendment 100 to the 

BSAI FMP and Amendment 91 to the 

GOA FMP, collectively Amendments 

100/91. NMFS published a notice of 

availability for Amendments 100/91 on 

May 5, 2014 (79 FR 25558). The 

comment period on Amendments 100/

91 ended on July 7, 2014. NMFS 

published a proposed rule to implement 

Amendments 100/91 on May 14, 2014 

(79 FR 27557). The comment period on 

the proposed rule ended on June 13, 

2014. NMFS approved Amendments 

100/91 on August 4, 2014. Additional 

detail on this action is provided in the 

notice of availability for Amendment 

100/91 (79 FR 25558, May 5, 2014) and 

the proposed rule (79 FR 27557, May 14, 

2014). NMFS received three comment 

letters on Amendments 100/91 and the 

proposed rule. 

NMFS manages groundfish fisheries 

in the exclusive economic zone off 

Alaska under the BSAI FMP and GOA 

FMP. The North Pacific Fishery 

Management Council (Council) 

prepared the FMPs under the authority 

of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act 

(Magnuson-Stevens Act), 16 U.S.C. 

1801, et seq. Regulations governing U.S. 

fisheries and implementing the FMPs 

appear at 50 CFR parts 600 and 679. 

Background 

The groundfish fisheries in the BSAI 

and GOA incidentally catch grenadiers 

(family Macrouridae) while harvesting 

other groundfish species. Grenadiers 

caught off Alaska are comprised of three 

species: Giant grenadiers (Albatrossia 

pectoralis), Pacific grenadiers 

(Coryphaenoides acrolepis), and popeye 

greandiers (Coryphaenoides cinereus). 

More than 90 percent of all grenadiers 

incidentally caught or obtained in 

surveys are giant grenadiers. Pacific 

grenadiers and popeye grenadiers 

typically occur at depths greater than 

most commercial fisheries or surveys 

and are rarely encountered (see Section 

3.2 of the Analysis for additional detail). 

For many years, the Council has 

considered how best to classify 

grenadiers in the FMPs. As explained in 

Section 1.2 of the Analysis (see 

ADDRESSES), from 1980 to 2010, 

grenadiers were included in the FMPs 

in the nonspecified species category. 

Nonspecified species were defined as a 

residual category of species and species 

groups which had no current or 

foreseeable economic value or 

ecological importance, which were 

taken in the groundfish fishery as 

incidental catch and were in no 

apparent danger of depletion, and for 

which virtually no data existed that 

would allow population assessments. 

In 2010, the Council recommended 

and NMFS removed the nonspecified 

species category from the FMPs when 

the FMPs were revised to meet the 

requirements of the Magnuson-Stevens 

Act as amended by the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and 

Management Reauthorization Act of 

2007 (Pub. L. 109–479). The amended 

Magnuson-Stevens Act required NMFS 

and the Council to establish annual 

catch limits (ACLs) and accountability 

measures (AMs) for fisheries in the 

FMP. The Council recommended and 

NMFS implemented Amendment 96 to 

the BSAI FMP and Amendment 87 to 

the GOA FMP to meet these 

requirements (Amendments 96/87, 75 

FR 61639, October 6, 2010). The 

nonspecified species, including 

grenadiers, were removed from the 

FMPs because these species were too 

poorly understood to set ACLs and AMs 

or to develop a management regime. 

Amendments 96/87 also amended the 

FMPs to organize the species remaining 

in the FMPs according to the National 

Standard 1 guidelines (§ 600.310). In the 

National Standard 1 guidelines, NMFS 

recommends two categories for species 

in an FMP: ‘‘Stocks in the fishery’’ and 

‘‘ecosystem component (EC) species.’’ 

‘‘Stocks in the fishery’’ are defined in 

the National Standard 1 guidelines 

(§ 600.310(d)(2)). ‘‘Stocks in the fishery’’ 

include (1) stocks that are targeted, and 

retained for sale or personal use; (2) 

stocks that are not directly targeted but 

are taken incidentally in other directed 

fisheries, and are retained for sale or 

personal use; and (3) stocks not targeted 

or retained but are taken as incidental
