2017). 

4 85 FR 50035 (Aug. 17, 2020). The Attorney 

General, in consultation with the Chairman of the 

Federal Trade Commission, made the required 

finding that the purpose of the voluntary agreement 

may not reasonably be achieved through an 

agreement having less anticompetitive effects or 

without any voluntary agreement and published the 

finding in the Federal Register on the same day. 85

8 ‘‘[T]he individual designated by the President in 

subsection (c)(2) [of section 708 of the DPA] to 

administer the voluntary agreement, or plan of 

action.’’ 50 U.S.C. 4558(h)(7). 

President’s authority to facilitate 

voluntary agreements with respect to 

responding to the spread of COVID–19 

within the United States was delegated 

to the Secretary of Homeland Security 

in Executive Order 13911.2 The 

Secretary of Homeland Security further 

delegated this authority to the FEMA 

Administrator.3

On August 17, 2020, after the 

appropriate consultations with the 

Attorney General and the Chairman of 

the Federal Trade Commission, FEMA 

completed and published in the Federal 

Register a ‘‘Voluntary Agreement, 

Manufacture and Distribution of Critical 

Healthcare Resources Necessary to 

Respond to a Pandemic’’ (Voluntary 

Agreement).4 Unless terminated earlier, 

the Voluntary Agreement is effective 

until August 17, 2025, and may be 

extended subject to additional approval 

by the Attorney General after 

consultation with the Chairman of the 

Federal Trade Commission. The 

Agreement may be used to prepare for 

or respond to any pandemic, including 

COVID–19, during that time. 

On December 7, 2020, the first plan of 

action under the Voluntary 

Agreement—the Plan of Action to 

Establish a National Strategy for the 

Manufacture, Allocation, and 

Distribution of Personal Protective 

Equipment (PPE) to Respond to COVID– 

19 (PPE Plan of Action)—was finalized.5

The PPE Plan of Action established 

several sub-committees under the 

Voluntary Agreement, focusing on 

different aspects of the PPE Plan of 

Action. 

On May 24, 2021, four additional 

plans of action under the Voluntary 

Agreement—the Plan of Action to 

Establish a National Strategy for the 

Manufacture, Allocation, and 

Distribution of Diagnostic Test Kits and 

other Testing Components to respond to 

COVID–19, the Plan of Action to 

Establish a National Strategy for the 

Manufacture, Allocation, and 

Distribution of Drug Products, Drug 

Substances, and Associated Medical 

Devices to respond to COVID–19, the 

Plan of Action to Establish a National 

Strategy for the Manufacture, 

Allocation, and Distribution of Medical 

Devices to respond to COVID–19, and 

the Plan of Action to Establish a 

National Strategy for the Manufacture, 

Allocation, and Distribution of Medical 

Gases to respond to COVID–19—were 

finalized.6 These plans of action 

established several sub-committees 

under the Voluntary Agreement, 

focusing on different aspects of each 

plan of action. 

The meetings are chaired by the 

FEMA Administrator or her delegate 

and attended by the Attorney General 

and the Chairman of the Federal Trade 

Commission or their delegates. In 

implementing the Voluntary Agreement, 

FEMA adheres to all procedural 

requirements of 50 U.S.C. 4558 and 44 

CFR part 332. 

Meeting Objectives: The objectives of 

the meetings are as follows: 

1. Gather committee Participants and 

Attendees to ask targeted questions for 

situational awareness related to the 

active Plans of Action (PPE, Drug 

Products and Drug Substances, 

Diagnostic Test Kits, Medical Devices, 

and Medical Gases). 

2. Establish priorities for COVID–19 

response under the Voluntary 

Agreement. 

3. Identify tasks that should be 

completed under the appropriate SubCommittee. 

4. Identify information gaps and areas 

that merit sharing (both from FEMA to 

the private sector and vice versa). 

Meetings Closed to the Public: By 

default, the DPA requires meetings held 

to implement a voluntary agreement or 

plan of action be open to the public.7

However, attendance may be limited if 

the Sponsor 8 of the voluntary 

agreement finds that the matter to be 

discussed at a meeting falls within the 

purview of matters described in 5 U.S.C. 

552b(c), such as trade secrets and 

commercial or financial information. 

The Sponsor of the Voluntary 

Agreement, the FEMA Administrator, 

found that these meetings to implement 

the Voluntary Agreement involve 

matters which fall within the purview of 

matters described in 5 U.S.C. 552b(c) 

and the meetings are therefore closed to 

the public. 

Specifically, these meetings to 

implement the Voluntary Agreement 

may require participants to disclose 

trade secrets or commercial or financial 

information that is privileged or 

confidential. Disclosure of such 

information allows for meetings to be 

closed pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(4). 

In addition, the success of the Voluntary 

Agreement depends wholly on the 

willing and enthusiastic participation of 

private sector participants. Failure to 

close these meetings could have a strong 

chilling effect on private sector 

participation and cause a substantial 

risk that sensitive information will be 

prematurely released to the public, 

leading to participants withdrawing 

their support from the Voluntary 

Agreement. 

This would significantly frustrate the 

implementation of the Voluntary 

Agreement. Frustration of an agency’s 

objective due to premature disclosure of 

information allows for the closure of a 

meeting pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 

552b(c)(9)(B).

Proposed Flood Hazard 

Determinations 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Homeland 

Security (DHS). 

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 


tkelley on DSK125TN23PROD with NOTICES
51176 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 175 / Tuesday, September 14, 2021 / Notices 

in order to qualify or remain qualified 

for participation in the National Flood 

Insurance Program (NFIP). In addition, 

the FIRM and FIS report, once effective, 

will be used by insurance agents and 

others to calculate appropriate flood 

insurance premium rates for new 

buildings and the contents of those 

buildings. 

DATES: Comments are to be submitted 

on or before December 13, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: The Preliminary FIRM, and 

where applicable, the FIS report for 

each community are available for

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 

and are used to calculate the 

appropriate flood insurance premium 

rates for new buildings built after the 

FIRM and FIS report become effective. 

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.

ACTION: 60-Day notice of revision and 

request for comments. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency 

Management Agency (FEMA), as part of 

its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

invites the general public to take this 

opportunity to comment on a revision of 

a currently approved information 

collection. In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this 

notice seeks comments concerning this 

annual requirement for the U.S. 

Department of Homeland Security 

(DHS), FEMA to identify current 

capability levels for all States, Tribes, 

territories, and urban areas receiving 

non-disaster preparedness grant funds 

administered by DHS. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before November 15, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: Submit comments at 

www.regulations.gov under Docket ID 

FEMA–2021–0020. Follow the 

instructions for submitting comments. 

All submissions received must 

include the agency name and Docket ID, 

and will be posted, without change, to 

the Federal eRulemaking Portal at 

http://www.regulations.gov, and will 

include any personal information you 

provide. Therefore, submitting this 

information makes it public. You may 

wish to read the Privacy and Security

may contact the Information 

Management Division for copies of the 

proposed collection of information at 

email address: FEMA-InformationCollections-Management@fema.dhs.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

package is a revision to the collection 

titled the Threat and Hazard 

Identification and Risk Assessment 

(THIRA)—Stakeholder Preparedness 

Review (SPR) Unified Reporting Tool 

under OMB Control Number 1660–0131. 

The Post-Katrina Emergency 

Management Reform Act of 2006 

(PKEMRA) (Pub. L. 109–295), as 

amended by the Implementing 

Recommendations of the 9/11 

Commission Act of 2007 (Pub. L. 110– 

53), established an annual requirement 

for the 56 states and territories to submit 

a State Preparedness Report. Because 

this reporting now includes States, 

Tribes, territories, and urban areas, 

FEMA has revised the name of the 

collection as the Stakeholder 

Preparedness Review (SPR). States, 

Tribes, territories, and urban areas 

receiving non-disaster preparedness 

grant funds administered by DHS 

submit the SPR annually, and this 

encompasses the requirements of the 

previous State Preparedness Report, 

while reflecting the updated 

methodology reporting needs. The 

legislation requires a report on current 

capability levels and a description of 

targeted capability levels from all States, 

Tribes, territories, and urban areas 

receiving non-disaster preparedness 

grant funds administered by DHS. Each
