published a table under the authority of
44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ‘‘Troup

Shoal Creek. That table contained
inaccurate information as to the location
of referenced elevation, effective and
modified elevation in feet, and/or
communities affected for that flooding
source. In this notice, FEMA is

accurate information, to address these

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) publishes proposed
determinations of Base (1% annualchance) Flood Elevations (BFEs) and
modified BFEs for communities
participating in the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP), in
accordance with section 110 of the
Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973,
42 U.S.C. 4104, and 44 CFR 67.4(a).
These proposed BFEs and modified
BFEs, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR
60.3, are minimum requirements. They
should not be construed to mean that
ADDRESSES:

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 49 / Monday, March 14, 2011 / Proposed Rules
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 other
Federal, State, or regional entities.
These proposed elevations are used to
meet the floodplain management
requirements of the NFIP and also are
used to calculate the appropriate flood
insurance premium rates for new
buildings built after these elevations are
made final, and for the contents in those
buildings.
Corrections
In the proposed rule published at 75
FR 75945, in the December 7, 2010,
issue of the Federal Register, FEMA
published a table under the authority of
Flooding source(s)
44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ‘‘Skagit
County, Washington, and Incorporated
Areas’’ addressed the following flooding
sources: Left Bank Overflow Main Stem
Skagit River, Left Bank Overflow Main

That table contained inaccurate

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a

Background
1. Jurisdictional separations is the
process by which incumbent LECs
apportion regulated costs between the
intrastate and interstate jurisdictions.
The NPRM proposes extending the
current freeze of part 36 category
relationships and jurisdictional cost
allocation factors used in jurisdictional
separations, which freeze would
otherwise expire on June 30, 2011, until
June 30, 2012. Extending the freeze will
allow the Commission to provide
stability for, and avoid imposing undue
burdens on, carriers that must comply
with the Commission’s separations rules
while the Commission considers issues
relating to comprehensive separations
reform.

SUMMARY: On December 7, 2010, FEMA published in the Federal Register a
proposed rule that contained an erroneous table. This notice provides
corrections to that table, to be used in lieu of the information
published at 75 FR 75945. The table provided here represents the
flooding sources, location of referenced elevations, effective and

Washington and Incorporated Areas. Specifically, it addresses the
following flooding sources: Left Bank Overflow Main Stem Skagit River,
Left Bank Overflow Main Stem Skagit River/South Fork Skagit River, Left

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Luis Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering
Management Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) publishes proposed determinations of Base (1% annual-chance)
Flood Elevations (BFEs) and modified BFEs for communities participating
in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), in accordance with
section 110 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4104, and 44 CFR 67.4(a).
These proposed BFEs and modified BFEs, together with the floodplain
management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are minimum requirements.
They should not be construed to mean that
[[Page 13573]]
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 other Federal, State, or regional entities.
These proposed elevations are used to meet the floodplain management
requirements of the NFIP and also are used to calculate the appropriate
flood insurance premium rates for new buildings built after these
elevations are made final, and for the contents in those buildings.
Corrections
In the proposed rule published at 75 FR 75945, in the December 7,
2010, issue of the Federal Register, FEMA published a table under the
authority of 44 CFR 67.4. The table, entitled ``Skagit County,
Washington, and Incorporated Areas'' addressed the following flooding
sources: Left Bank Overflow Main Stem Skagit River, Left Bank Overflow
Main Stem Skagit River/South Fork Skagit River, Left Bank Overflow
North Fork Skagit River, Main Stem Skagit River, North Fork Skagit
River, Overflow from the Main Stem Skagit River between the North Fork
Skagit River and the South Fork Skagit River, Padilla Bay, Right Bank
Overflow Main Stem Skagit River, Right Bank Overflow Main Stem Skagit
River/North Fork Skagit River, Right Bank Overflow North Fork Skagit
River, Right Bank Overflow South Fork Skagit River, Samish Bay, Samish
Bay/Padilla Bay, Simlik Bay, Skagit Bay, Skagit Bay/Swinomish Channel,
Skagit River, Skagit River Delta Overbank Flowpath 1, Skagit River
Delta Overbank Flowpath 2, Skagit River Delta Overbank Flowpath 3,
South Fork Skagit River, and Swinomish Channel. That table contained
inaccurate information as to the location of referenced elevation,
effective and modified elevation in feet, and/or communities affected
for these flooding sources. It also contained erroneous map repository
addresses for the City of Burlington, the City of Sedro-Woolley, the
Swinomish Indian Tribal Community, and the Town of Lyman. There were
also some table formatting and alignment errors. In this notice, FEMA
is publishing a table containing the accurate information, to address
these prior errors. The information provided below should be used in
lieu of that previously published.
