DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket No. FEMA-7782]

List of Communities Eligible for the Sale of Flood Insurance

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Emergency 
Preparedness and Response Directorate, Department of Homeland Security.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities that are participating and 
suspended from the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). These 
communities have applied to the program and have agreed to enact 
certain floodplain management measures. The communities' participation 
in the program authorizes the sale of flood insurance to owners of 
properties located in the communities listed below.

EFFECTIVE DATES: The effective date for each community is listed in the 
fourth column of the following tables.

ADDRESSES: Flood insurance policies for properties located in the 
eligible communities listed below can be obtained from any licensed 
property insurance agent or broker serving the eligible community or 
from the NFIP by calling 1-800-638-6620.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael M. Grimm, Mitigation Division, 
500 C Street SW., Room 412, Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-2878.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase 
flood insurance that is generally not otherwise available. In return, 
communities agree to adopt and administer local floodplain management 
measures aimed at protecting lives and new construction from future 
flooding. Because the communities on the attached list have recently 
entered the NFIP, subsidized flood insurance is now available for 
properties in these communities.
    In addition, FEMA has identified the Special Flood Hazard Areas 
(SFHAs) in some of these communities by publishing a Flood Hazard 
Boundary Map (FHBM) or Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). The date of the 
flood map, if one has been published, is indicated in the fourth column 
of the table. In the communities listed where a flood map has been 
published, Section 202 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as 
amended, 42 U.S.C. 4016(a), requires the purchase of flood insurance as 
a condition of Federal or Federally-related financial assistance for 
acquisition or construction of buildings in the SFHAs shown on the map.
    The Administrator finds that delayed effective dates would be 
contrary to the public interest and that notice and public procedure 
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable and unnecessary.

National Environmental Policy Act

    This rule is categorically excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR 
Part 10, Environmental Considerations. No environmental impact 
assessment has been prepared.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    The Administrator certifies that this rule will not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities 
in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et 
seq., because the rule creates no additional burden, but lists those 
communities eligible for the sale of flood insurance.

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.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    This rule does not involve any collection of information for 
purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.

List of Subjects in 44 CFR Part 64.
