Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 110 / Thursday, June 10, 2021 / Notices 30969 

1. Provide appropriate staff with 

expertise to support the above 

mentioned tasks. 

2. Provide all support resources, 

including travel for Sea Machines 

Robotics staff who support this CRADA, 

if required. 

3. Provide the technical data package 

for all equipment, including 

dimensions, weight, power 

requirements, and other technical 

considerations for the additional 

components to be utilized under this 

CRADA. 

4. Review test plan. 

5. Provide any specific training, along 

with technical support, to those Coast 

Guard members evaluating the 

technology proposals submitted for this 

CRADA. 

The Coast Guard will provide no 

funding for reimbursement of proposal 

development costs. Proposals and any 

other material submitted in response to 

this notice will not be returned. 

Proposals submitted are expected to be 

unclassified and have not more than 

five single-sided pages (excluding cover 

page, DD 1494, JF–12, etc.). The Coast 

Guard will select proposals at its sole 

discretion on the basis of: 

(1) How well they communicate an 

understanding, of and ability to meet, 

the proposed CRADA’s goal; and 

(2) How well they address the 

following criteria: 

(a) Technical capability to support the 

non-Federal party contributions 

described, and 

(b) Resources available for supporting 

the non-Federal party contributions 

described. 

Currently, the Coast Guard is 

considering Sea Machines Robotics for 

participation in this CRADA. This 

consideration is based on the fact that 

Sea Machines has demonstrated its 

technical ability for autonomous USVs 

and the USCG RDC currently has one of 

their systems installed aboard their 29 

foot vessel. However, we do not wish to 

exclude other viable participants from 

this or future similar CRADAs. 

This is a technology assessment effort. 

The goal of the Coast Guard for this 

CRADA is to determine what USV 

characteristics/parameters would be 

recommended for the operational use of 

a Coast Guard platform of this size, and 

also to gain a better understanding of 

how collision avoidance of USVs should 

be validated and regulated in the future. 

Special consideration will be given to 

small business firms/consortia, and 

preference will be given to business 

units located in the U.S. This notice is 

issued under the authority of 5 U.S.C. 

552(a).

Commanding Officer, U.S. Coast Guard

Proposed Flood Hazard 

Determinations 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Department of 

Homeland Security. 

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 

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 September 8, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: The Preliminary FIRM, and 

where applicable, the 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 below. Additionally, 

the current effective FIRM and FIS 

report for each community are

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 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
30970 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 110 / Thursday, June 10, 2021 / Notices 

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.

Changes in Flood Hazard 

Determinations 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Department of 

Homeland Security. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice lists communities 

where the addition or modification of 

Base Flood Elevations (BFEs), base flood 

depths, Special Flood Hazard Area 

(SFHA) boundaries or zone 

designations, or the regulatory floodway 

(hereinafter referred to as flood hazard 

determinations), as shown on the Flood 

Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and 

where applicable, in the supporting 

Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports, 

prepared by the Federal Emergency 

Management Agency (FEMA) for each 

community, is appropriate because of 

new scientific or technical data. The 

FIRM, and where applicable, portions of 

the FIS report, have been revised to 

reflect these flood hazard 

determinations through issuance of a 

Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in 

accordance with Federal Regulations. 

The LOMR will be used by insurance 

agents and others to calculate 

appropriate flood insurance premium 

rates for new buildings and the contents 

of those buildings. For rating purposes, 

the currently effective community 

number is shown in the table below and 

must be used for all new policies and 

renewals. 

DATES: These flood hazard 

determinations will be finalized on the 

dates listed in the table below and 

revise the FIRM panels and FIS report 

in effect prior to this determination for 

the listed communities. 

From the date of the second 

publication of notification of these 

changes in a newspaper of local 

circulation, any person has 90 days in 

which to request through the 

community that the Deputy Associate 

Administrator for Insurance and 

Mitigation reconsider the changes. The 

flood hazard determination information 

may be changed during the 90-day 

period. 

ADDRESSES: The affected communities 

are listed in the table below. Revised 

flood hazard information for each 

community is available for inspection at 

both the online location and the 

respective community map repository 

address listed in the table below. 

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. 

Submit comments and/or appeals to 

the Chief Executive Officer of the 

community as listed in the table below.

location and local community map 

repository address where the flood 

hazard determination information is 

available for inspection is provided. 

Any request for reconsideration of 

flood hazard determinations must be 

submitted to the Chief Executive Officer 

of the community as listed in the table 

below. 

The modifications are made pursuant 

to section 201 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.
