Jkt 223001
The
Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) makes the final determinations
listed below of the modified BFEs for
each community listed. These modified
BFEs have been published in
newspapers of local circulation and
ninety (90) days have elapsed since that
publication. The Deputy Federal
Insurance and Mitigation Administrator
has resolved any appeals resulting from
this notification.
The modified BFEs are not listed for
each community in this notice.
However, this final rule includes the
address of the Chief Executive Officer of
the community where the modified BFE
determinations are available for
inspection.
The modified BFEs are made pursuant
to section 206 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 either to
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 other
Federal, State, or regional entities.
These modified BFEs 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. The changes in BFEs are in
accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
National Environmental Policy Act.
This final 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 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 final rule involves no policies that
have federalism implications under
Executive Order 13132, Federalism.
Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice
Reform. This final rule meets the
applicable standards of Executive Order
12988.
