I have determined that the damage in
certain areas of the State of Mississippi
resulting from severe storms, flooding, and
mudslides during the period of February 10

and magnitude to warrant a major disaster

disaster exists in the State of Mississippi.

are hereby authorized to allocate from funds
available for these purposes such amounts as
you find necessary for Federal disaster
assistance and administrative expenses.
You are authorized to provide Public

Public Assistance and Hazard Mitigation will
be limited to 75 percent of the total eligible
costs.
Further, you are authorized to make
changes to this declaration for the approved
assistance to the extent allowable under the
Stafford Act.

with the requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The submission

FEMA will use.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP) is authorized by Public Law 90–
448 (1968) and expanded by Public Law
93–234 (1973). The National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968 requires that the
Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) provide flood insurance at full
actuarial rates reflecting the complete
flood risk to structures built or
substantially improved on or after the
effective date for the initial Flood
Insurance Rate Map for the community,
or after December 31, 1974, whichever
is later, so that the risks associated with
buildings in flood-prone areas are borne
by those located in such areas and not
by the taxpayers at large. In accordance
with Public Law 93–234, the purchase
of flood insurance is mandatory when
Federal or federally-related financial
assistance is being provided for
acquisition or construction of buildings
located, or to be located, within FEMAidentified special flood hazard areas of
communities that participate in the
NFIP.
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on February 24, 2020, at 85 FR
10458 with a 60-day public comment
period. FEMA received one comment
supporting the proposed revisions to
this information collection, and one
irrelevant comment. This information
collection expired on April 30, 2020.
FEMA is requesting a reinstatement,
with change, of a previously approved
information collection for which
approval has expired. The purpose of
this notice is to notify the public that
FEMA will submit the information
collection abstracted below to the Office
of Management and Budget for review
and clearance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
County of Placer, City of Lincoln, South
Placer Regional Transportation
Authority, Placer County Water Agency,
and the Placer County Authority (PCA)
(collectively, the applicants) have
applied for a 50-year incidental take
permit (ITP) under the Endangered
Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA;
16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The applicants
prepared the Final Plan pursuant to
section 10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA and the
California Natural Community
Conservation Planning Act of 2002
(NCCPA).
Background
Section 9 of the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1531–
1544 et seq.) and Federal regulations (50
CFR 17) prohibit the taking of fish and
wildlife species listed as endangered,
and certain species listed as threatened
under section 4 of the ESA. Regulations
governing permits for endangered and
threatened species are at 50 CFR 17.22
and 17.32. For more about the Federal
habitat conservation plan program, go to
https://www.fws.gov/endangered/esalibrary/pdf/hcp.pdf. As cooperating
agencies, NMFS may use the EIS
analysis to support a decision as to
whether to issue an ITP to the
applicants, and the Corps may use the
EIS analysis to support decisions made
associated with implementing the Clean
Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).
NEPA requires Federal agencies to
analyze their proposed actions to
determine whether the actions may
significantly affect the human
environment. In these NEPA analyses,
the Federal agency will identify direct,
indirect, and cumulative effects, as well
as possible mitigation for effects on
environmental resources that could
occur with implementation of the
proposed action and alternatives.
Proposed Action
The FWS and NMFS would issue an
ITP to the applicants for a period of 50
years for certain covered activities
(listed below). The applicants have
requested ITPs for 14 covered animal
species (listed below), of which 7 are
listed as endangered or threatened
under the ESA.
