<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 246 / Monday, December 23, 2013 / Notices
Amendments to National Flood
Insurance Program Maps.
Abstract: FEMA collects scientific and
technical data submissions to determine
whether a specific, single-lot property is
located within or outside of a SFHA. If
the property is determined not to be
within a SFHA, FEMA provides a
written determination and the
appropriate map is modified by a Letter
of Map Amendment (LOMA) or a Letter
of Map Revision—Based on Fill
(LOMR–F). The owner or lessee of a
property uses a LOMA or LOMR–F to
show that a property is not flood prone,
making it possible for the lending
institution to waive the flood insurance
requirement. If insurance is carried for
the property, the new determination
should result in significantly lower
rates.
Affected Public: Individuals and
households; and business or other forprofit institutes.
Number of Respondents: 97,503.
Number of Responses: 97,503.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 150,725.
Estimated Cost: The property owner is
required to hire a surveyor or engineer
at an average cost of $450 to provide
certified elevation data. Therefore the
total annual cost burden to respondents
is estimated to be $47,465,100.

burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be

of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated,

technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.

Proposed Flood Hazard
Determinations
Federal Emergency
Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
Comments are requested on
proposed flood hazard determinations,
which may include additions or
modifications of any Base Flood
Elevation (BFE), base flood depth,
Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)
boundary or zone designation, or
regulatory floodway on the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and
where applicable, in the supporting
Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports for
the communities listed in the table
below. The purpose of this notice is to
seek general information and comment
regarding the preliminary FIRM, and
where applicable, the FIS report that the
Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) has provided to the affected
communities. The FIRM and FIS report
are the basis of the floodplain
management measures that the
community is required either to adopt
or to show evidence of having in effect
in order to qualify or remain qualified
for participation in the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP). In addition,
the FIRM and FIS report, once effective,
will be used by insurance agents and
others to calculate appropriate flood
insurance premium rates for new
buildings and the contents of those
buildings.
Comments are to be submitted
on or before March 24, 2014.
ADDRESSES: The Preliminary FIRM, and
where applicable, the FIS report for
each community are available for
inspection at both the online location
and the respective Community Map
Repository address listed in the tables
below. Additionally, the current
effective FIRM and FIS report for each
community are accessible online
through the FEMA Map Service Center
at www.msc.fema.gov for comparison.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
FEMA
proposes to make flood hazard
determinations for each community
listed below, 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 flood hazard
determinations, 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 flood hazard determinations 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 the
FIRM and FIS report become effective.
The communities affected by the
flood hazard determinations are
provided in the tables below. Any
request for reconsideration of the
revised flood hazard information shown
on the Preliminary FIRM and FIS report
that satisfies the data requirements
outlined in 44 CFR 67.6(b) is considered
an appeal. Comments unrelated to the
flood hazard determinations also will be
considered before the FIRM and FIS
report become effective.
Use of a Scientific Resolution Panel
(SRP) is available to communities in
support of the appeal resolution
process. SRPs are independent panels of
experts in hydrology, hydraulics, and
other pertinent sciences established to
review conflicting scientific and
technical data and provide
recommendations for resolution. Use of
the SRP only may be exercised after
FEMA and local communities have been
engaged in a collaborative consultation
process for at least 60 days without a
mutually acceptable resolution of an
appeal. Additional information
regarding the SRP process can be found
online at https://floodsrp.org/pdfs/srp_
fact_sheet.pdf.

ACTION: 30-Day notice.
AGENCY:
This notice announces that
the Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) has forwarded the
Information Collection Request (ICR),
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) control number 1652–0055,
abstracted below to OMB for review and
approval of an extension of the
currently approved collection under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The
ICR describes the nature of the
information collection and its expected
burden. TSA published a Federal
Register notice, with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments, of the
following collection of information on
August 16, 2013, 78 FR 50077.
Specifically, the collection involves the
submission of contact information for a
pipeline company’s primary and
alternate security manager and the
telephone number of the security
operations or control center, as well as
data concerning pipeline security
incidents.
SUMMARY:
Send your comments by January
22, 2014. A comment to OMB is most
effective if OMB receives it within 30
days of publication.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, OMB. Comments should be
addressed to Desk Officer, Department
of Homeland Security/TSA, and sent via

In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation is
available at https://www.reginfo.gov.
Therefore, in preparation for OMB
review and approval of the following
information collection, TSA is soliciting
comments to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

Information. Under the Aviation and
Transportation Security Act (ATSA)
(Pub. L. 107–71, 115 Stat. 597

* * * including security
responsibilities * * * over modes of
transportation that are exercised by the
Department of Transportation.’’ As the
lead Federal agency for pipeline
security, it is important for TSA to have
contact information for company
security managers and knowledge of
security incidents and suspicious
activity within the mode. This issue was
addressed in the TSA Pipeline Security
Guidelines developed in consultation
with TSA’s Federal partners and
relevant industry stakeholders.
Additionally, to facilitate the exchange
of security information in a timely
fashion, contact data is necessary for
pipeline operators’ security operations
or control centers.
