operative guidance and policy
documents into one location and
provides guidance that interprets the
planning standards and evaluation
criteria contained in NUREG–0654 and
44 CFR part 350. See FEMA P–1028,
December 2019.
As part of our collection to fulfill one
of FEMA’s missions, each instrument is
required for the performance of duties
related to the mission. Therefore, due to
the maturity of the program and the
opportunity to reduce burden cost, there
is an opportunity to consolidate,
improve, or remove collection
instruments. Consequently, the
collection instrument in 44 CFR 350.9(c)
was added to collect information and
relieve requests from the exercise
schedule outlined in 44 CFR 350.9.
Additionally, to further reduce burden
cost, the collection in 44 CFR 352.4 has
been removed as it currently does not
require approval under the Paperwork
Reduction Act, with FEMA only
receiving one or no responses in a given
year.
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on June 7, 2022, at 87 FR 34699
with a 60 day public comment period.
No comments were received. 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.

whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
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
collected; and (d) minimize the burden
of the collection of information on those

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.

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/
