Floodplain Assessment (E.O. 13690) Determine if Proposed Action is in a FFRMS floodplain: First, determine if Federally Funded Project is a critical action, which impacts floodplain determinations for the FVA approach. Second, evaluate the vertical extent and corresponding horizontal extent to establish the FFRMS floodplain using one of the three approaches in the following is the order of preference pending data availability: CISA 0.2PFA FVA Involve Public in Decision-making Process: Notify the public such as a notice in a local newspaper or posting in an accessible public space for the area where the action is under consideration. Public notifications and all supporting communications and activities should be accessible to all (e.g., plain language, culturally responsive, and accommodating), including but not limited to those with disabilities or limited English proficiency. All public notifications are required to follow all guidance and regulation regarding 508 compliance, the use of plain language, and limited English proficiency. If completing an EA or EIS, then include floodplain notice in Description of Proposed Action and Alternatives or Notice of Intent, respectively. Identify and Evaluate Practicable Alternatives to Locating in FFRMS Floodplain: OPDIVs/STAFFDIVs shall use input from public comments on practicable alternatives, including, if possible, nature-based solutions. Identify Adverse and Beneficial Impacts: Identify adverse and beneficial impacts, including stimulating floodplain development, which may result from the project. Analyze the following factors: (1) Natural environment (water resources, hydrology, topography, habitat); (2) Social concerns (environmental justice, visual quality/aesthetics, historic and cultural values, land use patterns), (3) Economic Aspects (costs of construction, transportation, relocation, natural features, and ecosystem processes), and (4) Legal considerations (deeds, leases). Mitigate Adverse Impacts: Minimize impacts identified and restore and preserve the beneficial values served by floodplains. The analysis shall discuss the following: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:59 Apr 30, 2024 Jkt 262001 Alternatives to the proposed action that may avoid adverse effects and incompatible development in the floodplain, including the alternatives of no action or location at an alternate site. Proposed buildings and structures located in FFRMS floodplain shall be programmed and designed to latest version of the American Society of Civil Engineers ‘‘Flood Resistant Design and Construction’’ (ASCE/SEI 24–14) provisions to mitigate the adverse effects of the proposed action. Senior Real Property Official Approval: No action shall take place involving HHS Federal Real Property in an FFRMS floodplain without a finding by the Senior Real Property Officer that the only practicable alternative consistent with the law and with the policy set forth in E.O. 13690 requires siting in a FFRMS floodplain. The action involving HHS Federal Real Property proposed for Senior Real Property Official approval shall be designed to minimize potential harm to or within the FFRMS floodplain. The Senior Real Property Official shall approve proposed actions requiring an EA or EIS on projects involving HHS Federal Real Property affecting FFRMS floodplains. Re-Evaluate Alternatives: Use any new information obtained from Public Notice to determine if the proposed project is still applicable. Reissue public notice with Finding of No Significant Impact or Record of Decision if EA or EIS is drafted, respectively. Announce and Explain Decision to the Public (Notice): Notify the public of the draft decision by publishing such as a notice in a local newspaper or posting in an accessible public space, dating the notice and the posting at removal. For programs subject to E.O. 12372, the public notice shall be sent to the appropriate state and local reviewing agencies the geographic areas affected. A public review period of 30 days after the issuance of the public notice shall be allotted before any action is taken. Implement the Proposed Federally Funded Project: Implement the Federally Funded Project with appropriate mitigation measures. Design and construction contracts shall include any mitigation measures are identified through the process. Ensure through independent 3rd party construction quality assurance that mitigation measures are fully implemented. Licenses, permits, loans, or grants: Each OPDIV/STAFFDIV shall take FFRMS into account when formulating or evaluating any water and land use plans and shall require land and water resources use appropriate risk management measures to mitigate the PO 00000 Frm 00152 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 degree of hazard involved. Adequate provision shall be made for the evaluation and consideration of flood hazards determined by FFRMS for the licenses, permits, loan, or grant-in-aid programs that an OPDIV/STAFFDIV administers. OPDIVs/STAFFDIVs shall also encourage and provide appropriate guidance to applicants to evaluate the effects of their proposal in FFRMS floodplains prior to submitting applications for Federal licenses, permits, loans, or grants. Authorization or Appropriation Requests: OPDIVs/STAFFDIVs shall indicate in any requests for new authorizations or appropriations whether the proposed action is in accord with Executive Order 13690 if the proposed action will be in a floodplain.
