[Docket No. FEMA–7961]
Suspension of Community Eligibility
Mitigation Division, Federal
Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with RULES
Expiration/revocation date
SUMMARY: This rule identifies
communities, where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under
the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP), that are scheduled for
suspension on the effective dates listed
within this rule because of
noncompliance with the floodplain
management requirements of the
program. If FEMA receives
documentation that the community has
adopted the required floodplain
management measures prior to the
effective suspension date given in this
rule, the suspension will not occur and
a notice of this will be provided by
publication in the Federal Register on a
subsequent date.
EFFECTIVE DATES: The effective date of
each community’s scheduled
suspension is the third date (‘‘Susp.’’)
listed in the third column of the
following tables.
ADDRESSES: If you want to determine
whether a particular community was
suspended on the suspension date,
contact the appropriate FEMA Regional
Office.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
David Stearrett, Mitigation Division,
Federal Emergency Management
Agency, 500 C Street, SW., Washington,
DC 20472, (202) 646–2953.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP
enables property owners to purchase
flood insurance which is generally not
otherwise available. In return,
communities agree to adopt and
administer local floodplain management
aimed at protecting lives and new
construction from future flooding.
Section 1315 of the National Flood
VerDate Aug<31>2005
18:30 Feb 06, 2007
Jkt 211001
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42
U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance
coverage as authorized under the NFIP,
42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.; unless an
appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed in
this document no longer meet that
statutory requirement for compliance
with program regulations, 44 CFR part
59 et seq. Accordingly, the communities
will be suspended on the effective date
in the third column. As of that date,
flood insurance will no longer be
available in the community. However,
some of these communities may adopt
and submit the required documentation
of legally enforceable floodplain
management measures after this rule is
published but prior to the actual
suspension date. These communities
will not be suspended and will continue
their eligibility for the sale of insurance.
A notice withdrawing the suspension of
the communities will be published in
the Federal Register.
In addition, FEMA has identified the
Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) in
these communities by publishing a
Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). The
date of the FIRM, if one has been
published, is indicated in the fourth
column of the table. No direct Federal
financial assistance (except assistance
pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act not in connection with a
flood) may legally be provided for
construction or acquisition of buildings
in identified SFHAs for communities
not participating in the NFIP and
identified for more than a year, on
FEMA’s initial flood insurance map of
the community as having flood-prone
areas (section 202(a) of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42
U.S.C. 4106(a), as amended). This
prohibition against certain types of
Federal assistance becomes effective for
the communities listed on the date
shown in the last column. The
Administrator finds that notice and
public comment under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)
are impracticable and unnecessary
because communities listed in this final
rule have been adequately notified.
Each community receives 6-month,
90-day, and 30-day notification letters
addressed to the Chief Executive Officer
stating that the community will be
suspended unless the required
floodplain management measures are

date. Since these notifications were
made, this final rule may take effect
within less than 30 days.
National Environmental Policy Act.
This rule is categorically excluded from
the requirements of 44 CFR part 10,
Environmental Considerations. No
environmental impact assessment has
been prepared.
Regulatory Flexibility Act. The
Administrator has determined that this
rule is exempt from the requirements of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act because
the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022,
prohibits flood insurance coverage
unless an appropriate public body
adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed no
longer comply with the statutory
requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurae will no longer be
available in the communities unless
remedial action takes place.
Regulatory Classification. This final
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 13132, Federalism.
This rule involves no policies that have
federalism implications under Executive
Order 13132.
Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice
Reform. This rule meets the applicable
standards of Executive Order 12988.
Paperwork Reduction Act. This rule
does not involve any collection of
information for purposes of the
Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications
Commission is modifying a section of
the Commission’s rules that implement
the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
Fee Schedule. This modification
pertains to the charge for recovery of the
full, allowable direct costs of searching
for and reviewing records requested
under the FOIA and the Commission’s
rules, unless such fees are restricted or
waived. The fees are being revised to
correspond to modifications in the rate
of pay approved by Congress.
DATES: Effective February 7, 2007.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Act Public Liaison, Office of
Performance Evaluation and Records
VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001
The
Federal Communications Commission is
modifying § 0.467(a) of the
Commission’s rules. This rule pertains
to the charges for searching and
reviewing records requested under the
FOIA. The FOIA requires federal
agencies to establish a schedule of fees
for the processing of requests for agency
records in accordance with fee
guidelines issued by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB). In
1987, OMB issued its Uniform Freedom
of Information Act Fee Schedule and
Guidelines. However, because the FOIA
requires that each agency’s fees be based
upon its direct costs of providing FOIA
services, OMB did not provide a
unitary, government-wide schedule of
fees. The Commission based its FOIA
Fee Schedule on the grade level of the
employee who processes the request.
Thus, the Fee Schedule was computed
at a Step 5 of each grade level based on
the General Schedule effective January
1987 (including 20 percent for
personnel benefits). The Commission’s
rules provide that the Fee Schedule will
be modified periodically to correspond
with modifications in the rate of pay
approved by Congress. See 47 CFR
0.467(a)(1) note.

In an Order adopted on January 25,
2007 and released on February 1, 2007
(DA 07–101), the Managing Director
revised the schedule of fees set forth in
47 CFR 0.467 for the recovery of the full,
allowable direct costs of searching for
and reviewing agency records requested
pursuant to the FOIA and the
Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 0.460,
0.461. The revisions correspond to
modifications in the rate of pay, which
was approved by Congress.
These modifications to the Fee
Schedule do not require notice and
comment because they merely update
the Fee Schedule to correspond to
modifications in rates of pay, as
required under the current rules. The
Commission will not distribute copies
of this Order pursuant to the
Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C.
801(a)(1)(A), because the rules are a
matter of agency organization,
procedure, or practice that do not
substantially affect the rights or
obligations of non-agency parties.
Accordingly, pursuant to the
authority contained in § 0.231(b) of the
Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 0.231(b), It
is hereby ordered, that, effective on
February 7, 2007, the Fee Schedule
contained in § 0.467 of the
Commission’s rules, 47 CFR § 0.467, is
amended, as described herein.

Suspension of Community Eligibility

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities, where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP), that are scheduled for suspension on the effective
dates listed within this rule because of noncompliance with the
floodplain management requirements of the program. If FEMA receives
documentation that the community has adopted the required floodplain
management measures prior to the effective suspension date given in
this rule, the suspension will not occur and a notice of this will be
provided by publication in the Federal Register on a subsequent date.
EFFECTIVE DATES: The effective date of each community's scheduled
suspension is the third date (``Susp.'') listed in the third column of
the following tables.
ADDRESSES: If you want to determine whether a particular community was
suspended on the suspension date, contact the appropriate FEMA Regional
Office.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David Stearrett, Mitigation Division,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase

buildings in identified SFHAs for communities not participating in the
NFIP and identified for more than a year, on FEMA's initial flood
insurance map of the community as having flood-prone areas (section
202(a) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4106(a),
