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

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

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.

44 CFR Part 65
[Docket No. FEMA-B-7722]
Changes in Flood Elevation Determinations
AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Interim rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This interim rule lists communities where modification of the
Base (1% annual-chance) Flood 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 FEMA reconsider the changes. The modified BFEs may be
changed during the 90-day period.
[[Page 38489]]
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.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: William R. Blanton, Jr., Engineering
Management Section, Mitigation Directorate, Federal Emergency
Management Agency, 500 C Street SW., Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-
3151.
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 to section 201 of the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105, 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 pursuant to policies established by the
other Federal, State, or regional entities. The changes BFEs are in
accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
National Environmental Policy Act. This interim rule is
categorically excluded from the requirements of 44 CFR part 10,
Environmental Consideration. An environmental impact assessment has not
been prepared.
Regulatory Flexibility Act. As flood 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.
Regulatory Classification. This interim 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.

policies that have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132,
Federalism.
Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This interim rule
meets the applicable standards of Executive Order 12988.
