area is ‘‘reasonably safe from flooding’’
and not in the SFHA.
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on April 25, 2023, at 88 FR
25004 with a 60-day public comment
period. Two public comments were
received, but neither are germane to this
collection because the comments did
not discuss these instruments or the
information they collect. This
information collection is set to expire on
July 31, 2023. FEMA is requesting a
revision to the currently approved
information collection. 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.
Collection of Information
Title: Revisions to National Flood
Insurance Program Maps: Application
Forms and Instructions for (C)LOMAs
and (C)LOMR–Fs.
Type of Information Collection:
Revision of a currently approved
information collection.
OMB Number: 1660–0015.
FEMA Forms: FEMA Form FF–206–
FY–23–104 (formerly 086–0–22) and
FEMA Form FF–206–FY–23–104–A

Community Acknowledgment Form.
Abstract: FEMA collects scientific and
technical data submissions to determine
whether a specific 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),
making it possible for the lending
institution to waive the flood insurance
requirement.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; Business or other for-profit
institutions; State, Local or Tribal
government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
67,701.
Estimated Number of Responses:

Comments
Comments may be submitted as
indicated in the ADDRESSES caption
above. Comments are solicited to (a)
evaluate whether the proposed data
collection is necessary for the proper
performance of the Agency, including
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
who are to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.

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.
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/
srp_overview.pdf.
The watersheds and/or communities
affected are listed in the tables below.
The Preliminary FIRM, and where
applicable, FIS report for each
community are available for inspection
at both the online location https://

Community

with multiple ongoing Preliminary
studies, the studies can be identified by
