Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 200 / Wednesday, October 16, 2019 / Notices
Relief and Emergency Assistance Act
(the Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C. 5174,
prescribes that FEMA must annually
adjust the maximum amount for
assistance provided under the
Individuals and Households Program
(IHP). FEMA gives notice that the
maximum amount of IHP financial
assistance provided to an individual or
household under section 408 of the
Stafford Act with respect to any single
emergency or major disaster is $35,500
for housing assistance and $35,500 for
other needs assistance. The increase in
award amount is for any single
emergency or major disaster declared on
or after October 1, 2019. In addition, in
accordance with 44 CFR 61.17(c), this
increases the maximum amount of
available coverage under any Group
Flood Insurance Policy (GFIP) issued.
FEMA bases the adjustment on an
increase in the Consumer Price Index
for All Urban Consumers of 1.7 percent
for the 12-month period, which ended
in August 2019. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the U.S. Department of
Labor released the information on
September 12, 2019.

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

The community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own or

Federal, State, or regional entities.

Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and
where applicable, in the supporting
Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports for
the communities listed in the table

community is required either to adopt
or to show evidence of having in effect
in order to qualify or remain qualified

management requirements of the NFIP
and 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://www.floodsrp.org/pdfs/

issued a major disaster declaration
under the authority of the Robert T.

I have determined that the damage in
certain areas of the State of Illinois resulting
from severe storms and flooding during the
period of February 24 to July 3, 2019, is of
sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant
a major disaster declaration under the Robert
T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency

a major disaster exists in the State of Illinois.

Consistent with the requirement that Federal
assistance be supplemental, any Federal

Further, you are authorized to make
