Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Notice; correction.

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

SUMMARY: On June 17, 2013, the Federal Emergency Management Agency 
(FEMA) published in the Federal Register a proposed flood hazard 
determination notice that included information for the City of North 
Beach in the table title ``Calvert County, Maryland, and Incorporated 
Areas''. This notice provides corrections to be used in lieu of the 
information published for the City of North Beach in that table at 78 
FR 36221.

DATES: Comments are to be submitted on or before July 9, 2014.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. FEMA-B-
1322, to Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering Management Branch, Federal 
Insurance and Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management 
Agency, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-4064 or 
(email) Luis.Rodriguez3@fema.dhs.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering 
Management Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration, 
Federal Emergency Management Agency, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 
20472, (202) 646-4064 or (email) Luis.Rodriguez3@fema.dhs.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FEMA proposes to make flood hazard 
determinations 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

[[Page 32974]]

and are also used to calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium 
rates for new buildings built after the FIRM and FIS report become 
effective.

Correction

    In the proposed flood hazard determination notice published at 78 
FR 36221, in the June 17, 2013, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA 
published a table titled ``Calvert County, Maryland, and Incorporated 
Areas''. This table included the City of North Beach as one of the 
communities for which flood hazard changes were being proposed. 
Following publication in the Federal Register, FEMA learned that the 
official designation for this community had been changed and the 
community is now identified as the Town of North Beach. This correction 
notice provides notification of the change in designation for this 
community. The official designation of the community provided by this 
correction notice should be used in lieu of that previously published.
