Determinations

SUMMARY: This interim rule lists
communities where modification of the

Elevations (BFEs) is appropriate because
of new scientific or technical data. New
flood insurance premium rates will be
calculated from the modified BFEs for
new buildings and their contents.
DATES: These modified BFEs are
currently in effect on the dates listed in
the table below and revise the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) in effect
prior to this determination for the listed
communities.
From the date of the second
publication of these changes in a
newspaper of local circulation, any
person has ninety (90) days in which to
request through the community that the
Mitigation Assistant Administrator of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
modified BFEs are not listed for each
community in this interim rule.
However, the address of the Chief
Executive Officer of the community
where the modified BFE determinations
are available for inspection is provided.
Any request for reconsideration must
be based on knowledge of changed
conditions or new scientific or technical
data.
The modifications are made pursuant

and are in accordance with the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C.
4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65.
For rating purposes, the currently
effective community number is shown
and must be used for all new policies
and renewals.
The modified BFEs are the basis for
the floodplain management measures
that the community is required to either
adopt or to show evidence of being
already in effect in order to qualify or
to remain qualified for participation in
the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
These modified BFEs, together with
the floodplain management criteria
required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the
minimum that 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

elevation determinations are not within
the scope of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act, 5 U.S.C. 601–612, a regulatory
flexibility analysis is not required.

interim rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 of
September 30, 1993, Regulatory

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Interim rule.

SUMMARY: This interim rule lists communities where modification of the

will be calculated from the modified BFEs for new buildings and their
contents.
DATES: These modified BFEs are currently in effect on the dates listed
in the table below and revise the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) in
effect prior to this determination for the listed communities.
From the date of the second publication of these changes in a

which to request through the community that the Mitigation Assistant
Administrator of FEMA reconsider the changes. The modified BFEs may be
changed during the 90-day period.
ADDRESSES: The modified 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The modified BFEs are not listed for each
community in this interim rule. However, the address of the Chief

with the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.,

evidence of being already in effect in order to qualify or to remain
qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
These modified BFEs, together with the floodplain management
criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that 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 the
other Federal, State, or regional entities. The changes BFEs are in
accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
