SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of this meeting is given under the

Federal Advisory Committee Act requires that notices for advisory 
committee meetings be published in the Federal Register 15 days prior 
to the meeting date. This notice is published less than 15 days prior 
to the meeting date due to rescheduling of the October 16, 2013 meeting 
as a result of the recent lapse in Federal appropriations. Because the 
NAC meeting is being conducted via teleconference, there will not be an 
undue burden on the public to arrange travel to attend this meeting. 
Notice of this meeting is also provided on the NAC's Web site at: 
http://www.fema.gov/national-advisory-council.
    The NAC advises the FEMA Administrator on all aspects of emergency 
management. The NAC incorporates State, local, and tribal governments, 
nonprofit, and private sector input in the development and revision of 
FEMA plans and strategies.
    Agenda: The NAC will receive reports from its subcommittees on the 
following topics: Review and update of the National Incident Management 
System (NIMS) and the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 
2012. The NAC will review the information presented on each topic, 
deliberate on any recommendations presented in the subcommittees' 
reports, and formulate recommendations for FEMA's consideration.

    Dated: November 18, 2013.
