Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 188 / Friday, September 28, 2007 / Notices
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on a proposed
revised information collection. In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, this notice seeks
comments concerning State Hazard
Mitigation Plan requirements to support
State administration of FEMA
Mitigation grant programs.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
February 26, 2002, FEMA published an
interim rule at 67 FR 884 implementing
section 322 of the Robert T. Stafford
Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act (Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C.
5165, enacted under section 104 of the
Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000, 42
U.S.C. 5121 note, to provide new and
revitalized approaches to mitigation
planning. The Stafford Act provides a
framework for linking pre- and-post-
disaster mitigation planning and
initiatives with public and private
interests to ensure an integrated,
comprehensive approach to disaster loss
reduction. Pursuant to 44 CFR part 201,
the mitigation planning requirements
require State, local and Indian tribal
governments to identify the natural
hazards that impact them, to identify
actions and activities to reduce any
losses from hazards, and to establish a
coordinated process to implement the
plan, taking advantage of a wide-range
of resources.

respondent and enable FEMA to continue to improve in its grants
administration practices. The forms are used to administer the
following FEMA grant programs.
Non-Disaster Programs
National Urban Search and Rescue (US&R) Response System--To develop
an immediately deployable, national response capability to locate and
extricate, and medically stabilize victims of structural collapse
during a disaster, while simultaneously enhancing the US&R response
capabilities of State and local governments.
Community Assistance Program--State Support Services Element (CAP-
SSSE)--To ensure that communities participating in the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP) are achieving flood loss reduction measures
consistent with program direction. The CAP-SSSE is intended to
identify, prevent and resolve floodplain management issues in
participating communities before they develop into problems requiring
enforcement action.
Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program (CSEPP)--To
enhance emergency preparedness capabilities of the States and local
communities at each of the eight chemical agent stockpile storage
facilities. The purpose of the program is to assist States and local
communities in efforts to improve their capacity to plan for and
respond to accidents associated with the storage and ultimate disposal
of chemical warfare materials.
National Dam Safety Program (NDSP)--To encourage the establishment
and maintenance of effective State programs intended to ensure dam
safety, to protect human life and property, and to improve State dam
safety programs.
Interoperable Communications Equipment (ICE)--To provide funding to
jurisdictions across the nation for demonstration projects on uses of
equipment and technologies to increase communications interoperability
among the fire service, law enforcement, and emergency medical service
communities. These projects will illustrate and encourage the
acceptance of new technologies and operating methods to assist
communities in achieving interoperability.
Earthquake Consortium (EqC)--To operate a program of grants and
assistance to enable States to develop mitigation, preparedness and
response plans prepare inventories and conduct seismic safety
inspection of critical structures and lifelines, update building and
zoning codes and ordinances to enhance seismic safety, increase
earthquake awareness and education, and encourage the development of
multi-State groups for such purposes.
Disaster Donations Management Program (AIDMATRRIX)--To distribute
technology solutions to State and local government and voluntary
agencies throughout the country prior, to a major event, through the
Aidmatrix Foundation/FEMA partnership. This will allow end-users to
incorporate technology solutions into their planning, increasing their
capacity to respond quickly and effectively once a disaster occurs.
Alternative Housing Pilot Program (AHPP)--Evaluate the efficacy of
non-traditional short and intermediate-term housing alternatives for
potential future use in a catastrophic disaster environment. Identify,
develop and evaluate alternatives to and alternative forms of FEMA
Disaster Housing to assist victims of the 2005 hurricanes in the Gulf
Coast.
Cooperating Technical Partners (CTP)--To increase local involvement
in, and ownership of, the development and maintenance of flood hazard
maps produced for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
Map Modernization Management Support (MMMS)--To increase local
involvement in, and ownership of, management of the development and
maintenance of flood hazard maps produced for the National Flood
Insurance.
New Repetitive Flood Claims (RFC)--The Repetitive Flood Claims
(RFC) Program was authorized in 2004 under Pub. L. 108-264, funds were
not appropriated until FY 2006. The RFC program is authorized under the
NFIA to award grants for actions that reduce flood damages to
individual properties for which one or more claim payments for losses
have been made. FEMA is not required to publish regulations; however,
FEMA will provide notice to eligible applicants, post notice on OMB's
Grants.gov Web site, and post the RFC program guidance on its Web site
at https://www.fema.gov.
Flood Mitigation Assistance (FMA)--To assist States and communities
in implementing measures to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk of
flood damage to buildings, manufactured homes, and other structures
insurable under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
Pre-Disaster Mitigation (PDM)--To provide States and communities
with a much needed source of pre-disaster mitigation funding for cost-
effective hazard mitigation activities that are part of a comprehensive
mitigation program, and that reduce injuries, loss of life, and damage
and destruction of property. Competitive grants are part of this
program including grants to universities.
Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG)--To provide direct
assistance, on a competitive basis, to fire departments of a State or
tribal nation for the purpose of protecting the health and safety of
the public and firefighting personnel against fire and fire-related
hazards.
Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER)--To
increase the number of firefighters in local communities and to help
them meet industry minimum standards and attain 24/7 staffing for
adequate protection against fire and fire-related hazards, and fulfill
related roles associated with fire departments.
[[Page 55236]]
Disaster Programs
Public Assistance Grants (PA)--To provide supplemental assistance

Households--Other Needs (ONA)--To provide assistance to individuals and
households affected by a disaster or emergency declared by the
President, and enable them to address necessary expenses and serious
needs, which cannot be met through other forms of disaster assistance
or through other means such as insurance.
Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP)--To provide States and local
governments' financial assistance to implement measures that will
permanently reduce or eliminate future damages and losses from natural
hazards through safer building practices and improving existing
structures and supporting infrastructure.
Fire Management Assistance Grant (FMAGP)--To provide grants to
States, Indian tribal government and local governments for the
mitigation, management and control of any fire burning on publicly
(nonfederal) or privately owned forest or grassland that threatens such
destruction as would constitute a major disaster.
