BILLING CODE 6718–03–P

44 CFR Part 65

Changes in Flood Elevation

Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency

Management Agency (FEMA).

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: Modified base (100-year)

flood elevations are finalized for the

communities listed below. These

modified elevations will be used to

calculate flood insurance premium rates

for new buildings and their contents.

EFFECTIVE DATES: The effective dates for

these modified base (100-year) flood

elevations are indicated on the

following table and revise the Flood

Insurance Rate Map(s) in effect for each

listed community prior to this date.

ADDRESSES: The modified base flood

elevations for each community are

available for inspection at the office of

the Chief Executive Officer of each
Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 95 / Wednesday, May 17, 1995 / Rules and Regulations 26365

community. The respective addresses

are listed in the following table.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Michael K. Buckley, P.E., Chief, Hazard

Identification Branch, Mitigation

Directorate, 500 C Street, SW,

Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646–2756.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Federal Emergency Management Agency

makes the final determinations listed

below of the final determinations of

modified base (100-year) flood

elevations for each community listed.

These modified elevations have been

published in newspapers of local

circulation and ninety (90) days have

elapsed since that publication. The

Associate Director has resolved any

appeals resulting from this notification.

The modified base (100-year) flood

elevations are not listed for each

community in this notice. However, this

rule includes the address of the Chief

Executive Officer of the community

where the modified base (100-year)

flood elevation determinations are

available for inspection.

The modifications are made pursuant

to Section 206 of the Flood Disaster

Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105,

and are in accordance with the National

Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C.

4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR Part 65.

For rating purposes, the currently

effective community number is shown

and must be used for all new policies

and renewals.

The modified base (100-year) flood

elevations are the basis for the

floodplain management measures that

the community is required to either

adopt or to show evidence of being

already in effect in order to qualify or

to remain qualified for participation in

the National Flood Insurance Program

(NFIP).

These modified 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 modified elevations are used to

meet the floodplain management

requirements of the NFIP and are also

used to calculate the appropriate flood

insurance premium rates for new

buildings built after these elevations are

made final, and for the contents in these

buildings.

The changes in base (100-year) flood

elevations are in accordance with 44

CFR 65.4.

National Environmental Policy Act

This rule is categorically excluded

from the requirements of 44 CFR Part

10, Environmental Consideration. No

environmental impact assessment has

been prepared.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

The Associate Director, Mitigation

Directorate, certifies that this rule is

exempt from the requirements of the

Regulatory Flexibility Act because

modified base (100-year) flood

elevations are required by the Flood

Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42

U.S.C. 4105, and are required to

maintain community eligibility in the

NFIP. No regulatory flexibility analysis

has been prepared.

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 12612, Federalism

This rule involves no policies that

have federalism implications under

Executive Order 12612, Federalism,

dated October 26, 1987.

Executive Order 12778, Civil Justice

Reform

This rule meets the applicable

standards of Section 2(b)(2) of Executive

Order 12778.

List of Subjects in 44 CFR Part 65
