Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
AGENCY: Federal Emergency
Management Agency, Emergency
Preparedness and Response Directorate,
U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency
Management Agency, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on a proposed continuing
information collection. In accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
Collection of Information
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), this
notice seeks comments concerning the
proposed collection of information.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP) plays a critical role in FEMA’s
mission for reducing flood losses.
Through the NFIP, communities must
adopt and enforce floodplain
management ordinances to reduce
future flood losses. In exchange,
FEMA’s NFIP makes federally backed
flood insurance available to property
owners in these participating
communities. According to the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973,
Congress Findings and Declaration of
Purpose, Section 2(a)(6), Congress finds
that it is in the public interest for
persons already living in flood prone
areas to have an opportunity to
purchase flood insurance and access to
more adequate limits of coverage, so
that they will be indemnified for their
losses in the event of future flood
disasters. In accordance with this
finding, FEMA attempts to fulfill the
requirement of The Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973 by educating and
assisting potential flood insurance
purchasers and agents who voluntarily
contact the National Flood Insurance
Program Call Center.
