Description
Training .......................
Travel in conjunction with educational activities to become proficient or qualified in one or
more areas of responsibility. 5 USC 4101(4) states that ‘‘ ‘training’ means the process of
providing for and making available to an employee, and placing or enrolling the employee
in a planned, prepared, and coordinated program, course, curriculum, subject, system, or
routine of instruction or education, in scientific, professional, technical, mechanical, trade,
clerical, fiscal, administrative, or other fields which will improve individual and organizational performance and assist in achieving the agency’s mission and performance goals.’’
The term ‘‘conference’’ may also apply to training activities that are considered to be conferences under 5 CFR 410.404, which states that ‘‘agencies may sponsor an employee’s
attendance at a conference as a developmental assignment under section 4110 of title 5,
United States Code, when: (a) The announced purpose of the conference is educational or
instructional; (b) More than half of the time is scheduled for a planned, organized exchange
of information between presenters and audience which meets the definition of training in
section 4101 of title 5, United States Code; (c) The content of the conference is germane
to improving individual and/or organizational performance, and (d) Development benefits
will be derived through the employee’s attendance.’’ Agencies have to distinguish between
conference and training attendance and use the appropriate identifier (see Conference—
Other Than Training above). Examples: Job required training, Internships, Intergovernmental Personnel Act, and forums.
Travel performed in connection with a transfer from one official duty station to another for
employees/immediate family members, as applicable. Examples: Permanent change of station (PCS) moves for domestic and international transferees/new appointees, tour renewal,
temporary change of station (TCS), and last move home.

Suspension of Community Eligibility
erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with RULES
AGENCY: Federal Emergency
Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Final rule.
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 the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (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.
DATES: 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.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If
you want to determine whether a
particular community was suspended
on the suspension date or for further
information, contact David Stearrett,
Mitigation Directorate, 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
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
PO 00000
*
*
59. 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
met prior to the effective suspension
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 insurance 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.

2009 Rates for Pilotage on the Great
Lakes
erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with RULES
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is increasing
the rates for pilotage service on the
Great Lakes by an average of 10.77%
over the rates that took effect February
4, 2009. This increase reflects an August
1, 2009, increase in benchmark
contractual wages and benefits, as well
as an increase in the ratio of pilots to
‘‘bridge hours.’’ The Coast Guard
intends the final rule to generate
sufficient revenue to cover allowable
expenses, target pilot compensation,
and returns on investment. The final
rule promotes the Coast Guard strategic
goal of maritime safety.
DATES: This final rule is effective August
1, 2009.

II. Effective Date
This final rule takes effect August 1,
2009. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d), we find
good cause for this final rule to take
effect less than 30 days after
publication. The Great Lakes Pilotage
Act of 1960, as amended by Public Law
109–241, section 302, requires the Coast
Guard to review and adjust the Great
Lakes pilotage rates annually by March
1. We could not issue this final rule
until some months after that date due to
the time needed to review and resolve
comments received on the proposed
rule. We nonetheless need to issue the
final rule before the August 1, 2009,
increase in benchmark contractual
wages and benefits that necessitates this
year’s rate adjustment. Under these
circumstances, publication of the final
rule 30 days or more in advance of the
August 1 benchmark increase is
impracticable. The regulated
community well understands the
significance of the August benchmark
increase and anticipates that the final
rule will take effect not later than
August 1. Therefore, we find that delay
of the final rule’s effective date beyond
August 1, 2009, would be unnecessary,
and contrary to the public interest in
timely rate increases.

III. Background
We published a notice of proposed
rulemaking on April 24, 2009 (NPRM,
74 FR 18669). The NPRM proposed an
average 9.41% increase.
This rulemaking increases Great Lakes
pilotage rates in accord with the
methodology contained in Coast Guard
regulations in 46 CFR Parts 401–404.
Our regulations implement the Great
Lakes Pilotage Act of 1960, 46 U.S.C.
Chapter 93, which requires foreign-flag
vessels engaged in foreign trade to use
Federally registered Great Lakes pilots
while transiting the St. Lawrence
Seaway and the Great Lakes system, and
which requires the Secretary of
Homeland Security to ‘‘prescribe by
regulation rates and charges for pilotage
services, giving consideration to the
public interest and the costs of
providing the services.’’ 46 U.S.C.
9303(f).
The U.S. waters of the Great Lakes
and the St. Lawrence Seaway are
divided into three pilotage Districts.
Pilotage in each District is provided by
an association certified by the Coast
Guard Director of Great Lakes Pilotage
to operate a pilotage pool. It is
important to note that, while we set
rates, we do not control the actual
number of pilots an association
maintains, so long as the association is
able to provide safe, efficient, and
reliable pilotage service, nor do we
control the actual compensation that
pilots receive. This is determined by
each of the three District associations,
which use different compensation
practices.
District One, consisting of Areas 1 and
2, includes all U.S. waters of the St.
Lawrence River and Lake Ontario.
District Two, consisting of Areas 4 and
5, includes all U.S. waters of Lake Erie,
the Detroit River, Lake St. Clair, and the
St. Clair River. District Three, consisting
of Areas 6, 7, and 8, includes all U.S.
waters of the St. Mary’s River, Sault Ste.
Marie Locks, and Lakes Michigan,
Huron, and Superior. Area 3 is the
Welland Canal, which is serviced
exclusively by the Canadian Great Lakes
Pilotage Authority and, accordingly, is
not included in the U.S. rate structure.
Areas 1, 5, and 7 have been designated
by Presidential Proclamation, pursuant
to the Great Lakes Pilotage Act of 1960,
to be waters in which pilots must at all
times be fully engaged in the navigation
of vessels in their charge. Areas 2, 4, 6,
and 8 have not been so designated
because they are open bodies of water.
Under the Great Lakes Pilotage Act of
1960, pilots assigned to vessels in these
areas are only required to ‘‘be on board
and available to direct the navigation of

Federal Emergency Management Agency
44 CFR Part 64
[Docket ID FEMA-2008-0020; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-8083]
Suspension of Community Eligibility
AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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 the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (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.
DATES: 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.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you want to determine whether a
particular community was suspended on the suspension date or for
further information, contact David Stearrett, Mitigation Directorate,
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 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. 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
[[Page 35810]]
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 met prior to the effective suspension 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
insurance 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.
3501 et seq.
