FEDERAL EMERGENCY

MANAGEMENT AGENCY

44 CFR Part 206

RIN 3067–AC82

Extensions of the Application Period

for Temporary Housing Assistance

AGENCY: Federal Emergency

Management Agency (FEMA).

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: This proposed rule would

authorize the Associate Director/

Executive Associate Director for

Response and Recovery to extend

beyond the standard 60-day limit the

application period for assistance

provided under the Disaster Housing

Program.

DATES: Comments will be accepted until

July 6, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Please send comments to

the Rules Docket Clerk, Office of the

General Counsel, Federal Emergency

Management Agency, 500 C Street SW.,

Washington, DC 20472, (facsimile) 202–

646–4536, or e:mail rules@fema.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Laurence W. Zensinger, Response and

Recovery Directorate, Federal

Emergency Management Agency, 500 C

Street SW., Washington, DC 20472,

(202) 646–3642, (facsimile) 202–646–

2730.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 44 CFR

206.101(e) currently provides that the

Regional Director may grant additional

time to submit applications for

temporary housing ‘‘in order to achieve

uniformity of application periods in

contiguous States’’ (44 CFR 206.101

(e)(1)). There are, however, other

disaster-specific circumstances under

which an extension of the application

period would be appropriate, including

when the volume of anticipated

applicants in a catastrophic disaster

cannot be registered within 60 days or

when disaster-related damage may not

be ascertained sooner than 60 days from

the declaration date. This proposed rule

would provide the Associate Director/

Executive Associate Director with the

authority to extend the application

period for disaster housing assistance

when circumstances warrant this

measure and, thereby, would better

serve the disaster-affected public. For

consistency of implementation, this ad

hoc authority will be given to the

Associate Director/Executive Associate

Director, Response and Recovery

Directorate at FEMA Headquarters.

National Environmental Policy Act.

This proposed rule would be

categorically excluded from the

requirements of 44 CFR Part 10,

Environmental Consideration. No

environmental impact assessment has

been prepared.

Executive Order 12866, Regulatory

Planning and Review.

This proposed rule would not be a

significant regulatory action within the

meaning of § 2(f) of E.O. 12866 of

September 30, 1993, 58 FR 51735. To

the extent possible, this proposed rule

adheres to the regulatory principles set

forth in E.O. 12866 and the Office of

Management and Budget has not

reviewed it under the provisions of E.O.

12866.

Paperwork Reduction Act.

This proposed rule would not contain

a collection of information requirement

as described in section 3504(h) of the

Paperwork Reduction Act.

Executive Order 12612, Federalism

This proposed rule would not involve

any policies that have federalism

implications under E.O. 12612,

Federalism, dated October 26, 1987.

Executive Order 12778, Civil Justice

Reform

This proposed rule would meet the

applicable standards of § 2(b)(2) of E.O.

12778.

List of Subjects in 44 CFR Part 206

procedure, Disaster assistance, Housing.

Accordingly, FEMA proposes to

amend 44 CFR part 206 as follows:
