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://

hazards.fema.gov/femaportal/ 

prelimdownload and the respective 

Community Map Repository address 

listed in the tables. For communities 

with multiple ongoing Preliminary 

studies, the studies can be identified by 

the unique project number and 

Preliminary FIRM date listed in the 

tables. Additionally, the current 

effective FIRM and FIS report for each 

community are accessible online 

through the FEMA Map Service Center 

at https://msc.fema.gov for comparison.

notice informs the public that HUD is 

seeking approval from OMB for the 

information collection described in 

Section A. 

The Federal Register notice that

information collection for a period of 60 

days was published on September 18, 

2024 at 89 FR 76500. 

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: Public 

Housing—Contracting with ResidentOwned Businesses. 

OMB Control Number: 2577–0161. 

Type of Request: Extension of 

previously approved collection. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: PHAs 

that entered into contracts with 

resident-owned businesses prior to 

December 26, 2014, must comply with 

the requirements/procedures set forth 

in, 24 CFR 85.36(h), and 24 CFR 

85.36(i). Contracts with resident-owned 

businesses entered into after December 

26, 2014, must comply with 24 CFR part 

963, 2 CFR 200.325, and 2 CFR 200.326 

and other such contract terms that may 

be applicable to the procurement under 

the Department’s regulations. These 

requirements include: 

• Certified copies of any State, 

county, or municipal licenses that may 

be required of the business to engage in 

the type of business activity for which 

it was formed. Where applicable, the 

PHA must obtain a certified copy of its 

corporate charter or other organizational 

document that verifies that the business 

was properly formed in accordance with 

State law; 

• Certification that shows the 

business is owned by residents, 

disclosure documents that indicate all 

owners of the business and each 

owner’s percentage of the business 

along with sufficient evidence sufficient 

that demonstrates to the satisfaction of 

the PHA that the business has the ability 

to perform successfully under the terms 

and conditions of the proposed contract; 

• Certification as to the number of 

contracts awarded, and the dollar 

amount of each contract award received, 

under the alternative procurement 

process; and 

• Contract award documents, proof of 

bonding documents, independent cost 

estimates and comparable price 

analyses. 

Members of affected public: Public 

Housing Agencies, and Applicable 

Resident Entrepreneurs Estimation of 

the total number of hours needed to 

prepare the information collection 

including number of respondents, 

frequency of response, and hours of 

response: Estimated number of 

respondents: 75. The calculation for 

burden hours is as follows: Calculation 

for number of respondents: 75 

(estimated number of PHAs contracting 

with resident owned businesses) × 24 

(number of hours for procurement 

process) = 1,800 total hours. The 

Department estimates that out of a total 

of 3,763 PHAs only 2 percent or 75 

PHAs contract with resident owned 

business. This number is less than the 

previous request due to several PHAs 

choosing to leave the program, but the 

Department anticipates there may have 

been more business or contracting 

opportunities particularly during the 

pandemic.

The national average of PHA staff 

salary used is $64,590 per year obtained 

from https://www.ziprecruiter.com/ 

Salaries/Public-Housing-AuthoritySalary, or $30.95 per hour as computed 

using the 2,087-Hour Divisor. The 

calculation for costs is as follows: 75 

PHAs × 24 hours = 1,800 hours × $30.95 

= $55,710. 

Status of the Proposed Information 

Collection: Meeting HUD Regulation 

requirements.

parties concerning the collection of

Abstract: The BLM collects the 

information on the Resource Advisory 

Council Application (Form No. 1120– 

19) to determine education, training, 

and experience related to possible 

service on advisory committees 

established under the authority of 

Section 309 of the Federal Land Policy 

and Management Act (43 U.S.C. 1739) 

and the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 2. This information 

is necessary to ensure that each advisory 

council is structured to provide fair 

membership balance, both geographic 

and interest-specific, in terms of the 

functions to be performed and points of 

view to be represented, as prescribed by 

its charter. The BLM is requesting minor 

changes to Form 1120–19. The changes 

include removing some of the 

previously collected information that is 

not needed and, in response to user 

feedback, clarifying certain portions of 

the form. A complete description of the 

changes is provided in the ICR that has 

been submitted to OMB. This OMB 

control number is scheduled to expire 

on April 30, 2025. This request is for 

OMB to renew with revisions this OMB 

control number for an additional three 

(3) years. 

Title of Collection: Bureau of Land 

Management Resource Advisory 

Council Application (43 CFR Subpart 

1784). 

OMB Control Number: 1004–0204. 

Form Number: 1120–19. 

Type of Review: Extension with 

revision of a currently approved 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: Persons 

who apply for positions on Resource 

Advisory Councils. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Respondents: 200. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 200. 

Estimated Completion Time per 

Response: 4 hours. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 800. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain a benefit. 

Frequency of Collection: On occasion. 

Total Estimated Annual Nonhour 

Burden Cost: None. 

Reason for Change: Some of the 

previously collected information is not 

needed. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor and, notwithstanding any other 

provision of law, a person is not 

required to respond to a collection of 

information unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

The authority for this action is the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). 

Darrin King, 

Information Collection Clearance Officer.
