Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Proposed Collection; 

Comment Request

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Emergency 

Preparedness and Response Directorate, 

U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, as part of its 

continuing effort to reduce paperwork 

and respondent burden, invites the 

general public and other Federal 

agencies to take this opportunity to 

comment on proposed extension of 

information collections. In accordance 

with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), this 

notice seeks comments concerning the 

collection of State and local hazard 

mitigation plans required under Section 

322 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster 

Relief and Emergency Assistance Act 

(Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C. 5165.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

collection of information is in 

accordance with Section 322 of the 

Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and 

Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act 

or the Act), 42 U.S.C. 5165, enacted 

under Sec. 104 the Disaster Mitigation 

Act of 2000, (DMA 2000) Pub. L. 106–

390. FEMA published regulations, 44 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

201, that require each state, local and 

tribal government have in place a 

hazard mitigation plan in order to 

receive Stafford Act assistance, 

excluding assistance provided pursuant 

to emergency provisions. The plan shall 

include sections that describe the 

planning process, an assessment of the 

risks, a mitigation strategy, and 

identification of plan maintenance and 

updating process. The purpose of the 

plan requirements is to enable State, 

tribal and local governments to better 

understand the risks they face from 

natural hazards and to make decisions 

and take actions to reduce the risks from 

those hazards. Several revisions were 

published since the February 26, 2002 

Interim Final Rule, including (1) to 

extend the date by which approved 

State and local mitigation plans will be 

required from November 1, 2003 to 

November 1, 2004 (October 1, 2002, 67 

FR 61512), (2) to clarify the date by 

which local mitigation plans would be 

required as a condition of receiving 

project grant funds under the PreDisaster Mitigation (PDM) program 

(October 28, 2003, 68 FR 61368); and (3) 

to provide State and Indian tribal 

governments with a mechanism to 

request an extension to the date by 

which they must develop State 

Mitigation Plans as a condition of grant 

assistance (September 13, 2004, 69 FR 

55094).

Title: State/Local/Tribal Hazard 

Mitigations Plans—Section 322 of the 

Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000. 

Type of Information Collection:

Extension of a currently approved 

collection. 

OMB Number: 1660–0062. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Abstract: This collection is in 

accordance with our responsibilities 

under 44 CFR part 201 Hazard 

Mitigation Planning, which requires

Total .......................................................................................................... 1,024 1 2,728 571,200 

Estimated Cost: The total annual 

estimated costs to States, territories, 

tribal governments and local 

communities for this information 

collection associated are $15,040,900. 

The costs were based on the wage rates 

using data from the November, 2003, 

U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of 

Labor Statistics (BLS), Standard 

Occupation Classification (SOC) System 

for urban and regional planners (SOC 

Code Number 19–3051) where the mean 

hourly wage for urban and regional 

planners was $26.31 per hour. 

Therefore, it is estimated that 

$15,028,272 (571,200 hours × $26.31 per 

hour) in annual costs is the total cost 

burden for all respondents to complete 

this information collection. 

Comments: Written comments are 

solicited to (a) evaluate whether the 

proposed data collection is necessary for 

the proper performance of the agency, 

including whether the information shall 

have practical utility; (b) evaluate the 

accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(c) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) minimize the burden 

of the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including through 

the use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of
