SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

Write Your Own (WYO) Program, FEMA 

regulation 44 CFR 62.23 authorizes the 

Federal Insurance Administrator to 

enter into arrangements with individual 

private sector insurance companies that 

are licensed to engage in the business of 

property insurance. These companies 

may offer flood insurance coverage to 

eligible property owners utilizing their 

customary business practices. To 

facilitate the marketing of flood 

insurance, the Federal Government will 

be a grantor of flood insurance coverage 

for WYO Company policies issued 

under the WYO arrangement. To ensure 

that any policyholders’ monies are 

accounted for and appropriately 

expended, the Federal Insurance 

Administrator implemented a Financial 

Control Plan (FCP) under FEMA 

regulation 44 CFR 62.23(f). This plan 

requires that each WYO Company 

submit financial data on a monthly basis 

into the National Flood Insurance 

Program’s Transaction Record Reporting 

and Processing Plan (TRRPP) system, as 

referenced in 44 CFR 62.23(h)(4). The 

regulation explains the operational and 

financial control procedures governing 

the issuance of flood insurance coverage 

under the National Flood Insurance 

Program (NFIP) by private sector 

property insurance companies under the 

WYO Program.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Collection of Information 

Title: Generic Clearance for the 

Collection of Qualitative Feedback on 

Agency Service Delivery. 

Type of information collection: 

Revision of a currently approved 

information collection. 

Form Titles and Numbers: None. 

Abstract: The information collection 

activity will garner qualitative customer 

and stakeholder feedback in an efficient, 

timely manner, in accordance with the 

Administration’s commitment to 

improving service delivery. By 

qualitative feedback, we mean 

information that provides useful 

insights on perceptions and opinions, 

but are not statistical surveys that yield 

quantitative results that can be 

generalized to the population of study. 

This feedback will provide insights into 

customer or stakeholder perceptions, 

experiences and expectations, provide 

an early warning of issues with service, 

or focus attention on areas where 

communication, training or changes in 

operations might improve delivery of 

products or services. These collections 

will allow for ongoing, collaborative and 

actionable communications between the 

Agency and its customers and 

stakeholders. It will also allow feedback 

to contribute directly to the 

improvement of program management. 

Feedback collected under this generic 

clearance will provide useful 

information, but it will not yield data 

that can be generalized to the overall 

population. This type of generic 

clearance for qualitative information 

will not be used for quantitative 

information collections that are 

designed to yield reliably actionable 

results, such as monitoring trends over 

time or documenting program 

performance. Such data uses require 

more rigorous designs that address: The 

target population to which 

generalizations will be made, the 

sampling frame, the sample design 

(including stratification and clustering), 

the precision requirements or power 

calculations that justify the proposed 

sample size, the expected response rate, 

methods for assessing potential nonresponse bias, the protocols for data 

collection, and any testing procedures 

that were or will be undertaken prior to 

fielding the study. Depending on the 

degree of influence the results are likely 

to have, such collections may still be 

eligible for submission for other generic 

mechanisms that are designed to yield 

quantitative results. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

Households. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

326,207. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 54,436. 

Estimated Cost: There are no annual 

start-up or capital costs.

Changes in Flood Hazard 

Determinations 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, DHS. 

ACTION: Final notice. 

SUMMARY: New or modified Base (1% 

annual-chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs), 

base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard 

Area (SFHA) boundaries or zone 

designations, and/or regulatory 

floodways (hereinafter referred to as 

flood hazard determinations) as shown 

on the indicated Letter of Map Revision 

(LOMR) for each of the communities 

listed in the table below are finalized. 

Each LOMR revises the Flood Insurance 

Rate Maps (FIRMs), and in some cases 

the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports, 

currently in effect for the listed 

communities. The flood hazard 

determinations modified by each LOMR 

will be used to calculate flood insurance 

premium rates for new buildings and 

their contents. 

DATES: The effective date for each 

LOMR is indicated in the table below. 

ADDRESSES: Each LOMR is available for 

inspection at both the respective 

Community Map Repository address 

listed in the table below and online 

through the FEMA Map Service Center 

at www.msc.fema.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis 

Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering 

Management Branch, Federal Insurance 

and Mitigation Administration, FEMA, 

500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 

20472, (202) 646–4064, or (email)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Federal Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) makes the final flood hazard 

determinations as shown in the LOMRs 

for each community listed in the table 

below. Notice of these modified flood 

hazard determinations has been 

published in newspapers of local 

circulation and ninety (90) days have 

elapsed since that publication. The 

Deputy Associate Administrator for 

Mitigation has resolved any appeals 

resulting from this notification. 

The modified flood hazard 

determinations 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 new or modified flood hazard 

information is the basis for the 

floodplain management measures that 

the community is required either to 

adopt or to show evidence of being 

already in effect in order to remain 

qualified for participation in the 

National Flood Insurance Program 

(NFIP). 

This new or modified flood hazard 

information, 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. 

This new or modified flood hazard 

determinations are used to meet the 

floodplain management requirements of 

the NFIP and also are used to calculate 

the appropriate flood insurance 

premium rates for new buildings, and 

for the contents in those buildings. The 

changes in flood hazard determinations 

are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4. 

Interested lessees and owners of real 

property are encouraged to review the 

final flood hazard information available 

at the address cited below for each 

community or online through the FEMA 

Map Service Center at 

www.msc.fema.gov.
