restored?
§ 1260.72 Can previously released White

restored?
BILLING CODE 7515–01–P
(a) Records that were properly
declassified in accordance with E.O.
12958 as amended (or predecessor
orders) and that have been released may
be temporarily closed and considered
for reclassification at the request of an
agency. Final action must be taken
under the personal authority of the
agency head or deputy agency head,
who determines in writing within 20
workdays that the reclassification of the
information is necessary in the interest
of the national security. In addition, the
information must be reasonably
recoverable.
(b) Records that were not properly
declassified in accordance with
Executive Order 12958 as amended (or
predecessor orders) remain classified.
Upon notification, NARA will take
administrative action to restore
markings and controls, as appropriate.
In the event that records have been
released, they may be temporarily
closed and their classification reviewed
at the request of an agency. The agency
must notify NARA of the results of the
review within 30 days.
(c) Agencies must submit all requests
in writing. If the urgency of the request
precludes a written request, an
authorized agency official may make a
preliminary request by telephone and
follow up with a written request within
5 working days. Requests concerning
Executive Branch records must be
addressed to the Assistant Archivist for
Records Services—Washington, DC,
National Archives and Records
Administration, 8601 Adelphi Road,
College Park, MD 20740–6001. Requests
concerning information in Presidential
libraries must be addressed to the
Assistant Archivist for Presidential
Libraries, National Archives and
Records Administration, 8601 Adelphi
Road, College Park, MD 20740–6001.
(d) Any such written request must
include all of the following:
(1) A description of the records or
donated materials involved, identified
with sufficient specificity to enable
NARA to locate it with a reasonable
amount of effort;
(2) An explanation as to why the
records should be closed and reviewed;
(3) A statement as to the authority for
any classification or reclassification, to
include a reference to the specific
category in section 1.4 or 3.3(b) of E.O.
12958, as appropriate; and
An agency or an entity within the
Executive Office of the President that
solely advises and assists the President,
may ask NARA to temporarily close,
review, and possibly reclassify or
restore the classification of White House
originated information that has been
declassified and previously released.
The agency or other entity must follow
the same procedures as a request for
reclassification of Executive branch
originated information in 36 CFR
1260.70.

§ 1260.74 What if NARA does not concur
with a request to reclassify or restore the
classification of information that has been
previously released?
(a) If NARA is concerned that relevant
procedures and policies under E.O.
12958, as amended, or its Implementing
Directives are not being properly
implemented, the Archivist will
promptly report such situations to the
Director of ISOO.
(b) If, in the opinion of the Archivist,
an agency’s determination with respect
to the classification status of records
that have been previously released is
improper, the Archivist, as an
authorized holder, may challenge the
classification status of the pertinent
records in accordance with section 1.8
of E.O. 12958, as amended.
(c) NARA will direct any such
challenge in writing to the agency with
classification authority and jurisdiction
over the information.
(d) If no response is provided by the
agency within 120 days, NARA may
forward the challenge directly to the
Interagency Security Classification
Appeals Panel (ISCAP). NARA must
forward the challenge within 60 days of
the agency’s failure to provide a
response within 120 days.
(e) If an agency appellate authority
fails to provide NARA with a response
to an appeal within 90 days of its
receipt, NARA may forward the appeal
directly to the Interagency Security
Classification Appeals Panel (ISCAP).
NARA must forward the challenge
within 60 days of the agency’s failure to
provide a response to an appeal within
90 days.
(f) All records subject to classification
challenges will remain classified
pending final resolution of the challenge
and, if necessary, any such appeals.

Proposed Flood Elevation
Determinations
Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA),
Emergency Preparedness and Response
Directorate, Department of Homeland
Security.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Technical information or
comments are requested on the
proposed Base (1% annual chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and proposed
BFE modifications for the communities
listed below. The BFEs are 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 qualify or
remain qualified for participation in the
National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
The comment period is ninety
(90) days following the second
publication of this proposed rule in a
newspaper of local circulation in each
community.
DATES:
The proposed BFEs for each
community are available for inspection
at the office of the Chief Executive
Officer of each community. The
respective addresses are listed in the
table below.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Doug Bellomo, P.E., Hazard
Identification Section, Emergency
Preparedness and Response Directorate,
FEMA, 500 C Street, SW., Washington,
DC 20472, (202) 646–2903.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FEMA
proposes to make determinations of
BFEs and modified BFEs for each
community listed below, 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 base flood elevations
and modified BFEs, together with the
floodplain management criteria required
by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 155 / Friday, August 12, 2005 / Proposed Rules
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
proposed elevations are used to meet
the floodplain management
requirements of the NFIP and are also
used to calculate the appropriate flood
insurance premium rates for new
buildings built after these elevations are
made final, and for the contents in these
buildings.
National Environmental Policy Act.
This proposed rule is categorically
excluded from the requirements of 44
CFR part 10, Environmental
Consideration. No environmental
impact assessment has been prepared.
State
Regulatory Flexibility Act. The
Mitigation Division Director of the
Emergency Preparedness and Response
Directorate certifies that this proposed
rule is exempt from the requirements of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act because
proposed or modified BFEs are required
by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of
1973, 42 U.S.C. 4104, and are required
to establish and maintain community
eligibility in the NFIP. As a result, a
regulatory flexibility analysis has not
been prepared.
Regulatory Classification. This
proposed rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of
Section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 of
September 30, 1993, Regulatory
Planning and Review, 58 FR 51735.
Executive Order 12612, Federalism.
