Title of Proposal: Loans in Areas
Having Special Flood Hazards.
OMB Number: 1550–0088.
Form Numbers: N/A.
Regulation requirement: 12 CFR part
572.
Description: The borrower uses the
notice to make decisions regarding the
collateral to be used to secure a loan.
This notice advises the borrower as to
whether the property securing the loan
is or will be located in a special flood
hazard area, whether flood insurance on
the property securing the loan is
required, and includes a description of
the flood insurance purchase
requirements. This notice also provides
the borrower with information regarding
the availability of Federal assistance in
the event of a declared Federal flood
disaster. If a loan is being serviced by
a loan servicer, this notice also is
provided by the savings association to
the loan servicer to assist in making the
servicer aware of its responsibility for
performing certain tasks on behalf of the
lender ( e.g., collecting insurance
premiums). The statute and OTS
implementing regulations require the
lending institution to retain a record of
PO 00000
Frm 00096

the receipt of the notice to the borrower.
OTS uses this record to verify
compliance.
A second notice to the borrower is
required if the lending institution
determines at any time during the life of
a loan that adequate (required) flood
insurance is not in place. This notice is
used by the borrower to determine how
much flood insurance to purchase.
The notice to the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) advises
FEMA of the identity of the initial loan
servicer and, if necessary, of changes in
servicers. FEMA uses this notice to
maintain current information regarding
the persons to whom it should direct
inquiries regarding flood insurance, or
to send notices of flood insurance policy
renewals.
A lending institution is required by
statute and OTS implementing
regulations to use the standard flood
hazard determination form developed
by FEMA when determining whether
the property securing the loan is or will
be located in a special flood hazard area.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
832.
Estimated Number of Responses:
214,660.
Estimated Frequency of Response: On
