Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request, 73252-73253 [E5-7156]

Download as PDF 73252 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 236 / Friday, December 9, 2005 / Notices The EFI process is designed to allow provider-designated organizations (known as electronic file interchange organizations ‘‘EFIOs’’) to capture multiple providers’ NPI application information on a single file. (This process is also referred to as ‘‘bulk enumeration.’’) To ensure that the EFIO has the authority to act on behalf of each provider and complies with other Federal requirements, the EFIO must sign a certification statement and mail it to CMS. The EFI process therefore cannot commence until the certification statement receives final OMB clearance. 1. Type of Information Collection Request: New collection; Title of Information Collection: Certification Statement for Electronic File Interchange Organizations (EFIOS) that Submit National Provider Identifier (NPI) Data to the National Plan and Enumeration System; Use: The EFI process is designed to allow organizations to submit NPI application information for large numbers of providers in a single file. Once it has obtained and formatted the necessary provider data, the EFIO will electronically submit the file to NPPES for processing. As each file can contain up to approximately 100,000 records, or provider applications, the EFI process greatly reduces the paperwork and overall administrative burden associated with enumerating providers; Form Number: CMS–10175 (OMB#: 0938– NEW); Frequency: Other—One-time; Affected Public: Business or other forprofit, and Not-for-profit institutions; Number of Respondents: 2000; Total Annual Responses: 1000; Total Annual Hours: 3000. CMS is requesting OMB review and approval of these collections by December 30, 2005, with a 180-day approval period. Written comments and recommendation will be considered from the public if received by the individuals designated below by December 23, 2005.

Title: Revisions to National Flood Insurance Program Maps: Application Forms and Instructions for (C) LOMAs and (C) LOMR–Fs. OMB Number: 1660–0015. Abstract: The certification forms (referred to as MT–1 series forms) are designed to assist requesters in gathering information that FEMA needs to determine whether a certain property is likely to be flooded during a flood event that has a one-percent annual chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (base flood). FEMA Form 81–87, Property Information, describes the location of the property, what is being requested, and what data are required to support the request. FEMA Form 81–87A, Elevation Information, indicates what the Base (one-percent annual chance) Flood Elevation (BFE) for the property is, how the BFE was determined, the lowest ground elevation on the property, and/ or the elevation of the lowest adjacent grade to any structures on the property. This information is required in order for FEMA to determine if the property that the requester would like removed from the SFHA is at or above the BFE. FEMA Form 81–87B, Community Acknowledgment, requires that a community official certify that the request complies with minimum floodplain management criteria specified in 44 CFR 60.3, as per NFIP regulations 44 CFR 65.5(a)(4).
