[Docket ID FEMA–2008–0009] 

National Disaster Housing Strategy 

AGENCY: Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, DHS. 

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: This document provides 

notice of the availability of the final 

National Disaster Housing Strategy 

(NDHS) which finalizes the draft 

version of the NDHS which the Federal 

Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) published for public comment 

in July 2008. The NDHS is intended to 

serve two purposes. It describes how we 

as a Nation currently provide housing to 

those affected by disasters, and it charts 

the new direction that our disaster 

housing efforts must take if we are to 

better meet the emergent needs of 

disaster victims and communities. 

DATES: The NDHS is effective January 

16, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: The NDHS is available 

online at http://www.regulations.gov 

and on FEMA’s Web site at http:// 

www.fema.gov/news/ 

newsrelease.fema?id=47305. The draft 

and final NDHS, all related Federal 

Register Notices, and all public 

comments received during the comment 

period are available at http:// 

www.regulations.gov under Docket ID 

FEMA–2008–0009. You may also view a 

hard copy of the NDHS at the Office of 

Chief Counsel, Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, Room 835, 500 C 

Street, SW., Washington, DC 20472. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jack 

Schuback, Federal Emergency 

Management Agency, 500 C Street SW., 

Washington, DC 20472, (215) 931–5624. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NDHS 

serves as a guide to how the Nation 


erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with NOTICES
34588 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 135 / Thursday, July 16, 2009 / Notices 

currently provides housing after a 

disaster, and sets a course for improving 

the methods in which we can provide 

housing to meet the emergent needs of 

disaster victims and communities. As 

requested by Congress in Section 683 of 

the Post-Katrina Emergency 

Management Reform Act of 2006, Public 

Law 109–295, the NDHS is intended to 

begin a long-term effort to build on 

current strengths and encourage all 

involved to work collaboratively and 

seek innovative housing solutions. It 

intends to establish a strong foundation 

based on clear roles and responsibilities, 

key principles to guide national efforts, 

a joint planning process to build 

baseline capabilities, and additional 

resources to better prepare for an 

impending or emergent event. 

The NDHS promotes a national 

housing effort that engages all levels of 

government and the private sector to 

collectively meet the urgent housing 

needs of disaster victims and to enable 

individuals, households and 

communities to rebuild and restore their 

way of life following a disaster. A key 

concept introduced in the NDHS is the 

National Disaster Housing Task Force to 

bring together experts and policymakers 

whose efforts would be dedicated 

exclusively to the disaster housing 

issue. The NDHS draws on best 

practices and lessons learned over the 

years to identify actions that can be 

taken to improve disaster housing 

assistance. This effort began with 

realigning roles and responsibilities, 

renewing our focus on planning, 

building baseline capabilities, and 

providing a broader range of flexible 

disaster housing options. The NDHS 

outlines a vision, supported by specific 

goals, that will point the Nation in a 

new direction to meet the disaster 

housing needs of individuals and 

communities going forward. 

FEMA received numerous comments 

on the draft NDHS, which FEMA 

published for public comment in July 

2008. The final version reflects many 

changes made as a result of those 

comments.

BILLING CODE 9111–23–P 

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

Office of the Secretary 

Privacy Act of 1974; Amendment of 

Existing Systems of Records 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, 

Department of the Interior. 

ACTION: Proposed amendment of 

existing systems of records. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), the 

Office of the Secretary of the 

Department of the Interior is issuing 

public notice of its intent to amend an 

existing Privacy Act system of records 

notice, Passport and Visa Records, OS– 

52. The revisions will update the 

categories of records kept, the manner in 

which the physical records are stored, 

the methods of securing the records, the 

system location, and the system 

manager. The system number is also 

being changed from OS–52 to DOI–52. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

August 25, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Any persons interested in 

commenting on these proposed 

amendments to an existing system of 

records may do so by submitting 

comments in writing to the Chief, 

Security Services Branch, U.S. 

Department of the Interior, 1849 C 

Street, NW., Washington, DC 20240. 

Comments may also be submitted by fax 

to (202) 208–7610. Before including 

your address, phone number, e-mail 

address, or other personal identifying 

information in your comment, you 

should be aware that your entire 

comment—including your personal 

identifying information—may be made 

publicly available at any time. While 

you can ask us in your comment to 

withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Chief, Security Services Branch, U.S. 

Department of the Interior, 1849 C 

Street, NW., Washington, DC 20240. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office 

of the Secretary is proposing to 

renumber the former Passport and Visa 

Records, OS–52, to Passport and Visa 

Records, DOI–52, to more accurately 

reflect the broad scope of the system 

within the Department, because it 

contains records from most of the 

bureaus of the Department. 

Additionally, several other sections of 

the notice are being updated. The 

category of records will be expanded to 

include application materials for visas 

and passports and similar 

supplementary materials, as well as 

internal electronic files housing such 

information for tracking and work 

purposes. There is an updated 

description of the type of cabinet or safe 

housing the physical records. 

Additional information is provided on 

the security of the system, and system 

owner name and location are being 

updated. Comments received within 40 

days of the publication in the Federal 

Register will be considered. The system 

changes will be effective as proposed at 

the end of the comment period unless 

comments are received which would 

require a contrary determination. The 

Department will publish a revised 

notice if changes are made based upon 

a review of comments received. 

Dated: July 8, 2009. 

Steve T. Hargrave, 

Chief, Security Services Branch, Office of the 

Secretary. 

System Name: Passport and Visa 

Records, DOI–52.
