Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 86 / Thursday, May 2, 2024 / Notices
Act (Pub. L. 116–127); and the
American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Pub.
L. 117–2) provided the Department of
Health and Human Services the
authority to administer the Provider
Relief Programs (PRP) (e.g., Provider
Relief Fund; American Rescue Plan Act
Rural Distribution; COVID–19 Coverage
Assistance Fund; and COVID–19 Claims
Reimbursement to Health Care
Providers and Facilities for Testing,
Treatment, and Vaccine Administration
for the Uninsured). The Department of
Health and Human Services delegated
the authority for these programs to
HRSA. The PRP issued payments to
eligible health care providers for
expenses or lost revenues attributable to
COVID–19 and claims reimbursement
for COVID–19 testing, treatment, and
vaccine administration for uninsured
and COVID–19 vaccine administration
for underinsured individuals.
Recipients of these funds agreed to the
Terms and Conditions applicable to
each Program, which require, among
other Terms, compliance with reporting
requirements as specified by the
Secretary of Health and Human
Services. Recipients are eligible health
care providers who include public
entities, Medicare or Medicaid enrolled
suppliers and providers, and for-profit
and non-profit entities that provide
diagnosis, testing, vaccination, or care
for individuals with possible or actual
cases of COVID–19. The Single Audit
Act requires entities that expend
$750,000 or more of federal assistance
during the entity’s fiscal year to conduct
an independent audit. Requirements for
these audits are set forth in regulations
at 45 CFR subpart F. Requirements
differ for non-profit and commercial/forprofit entities, and non-profit entities
are required to submit their audits to the
Federal Audit Clearinghouse. HRSA has
established a Commercial Audit
Reporting Portal to collect audits from
commercial/for-profit organizations. In
late calendar year 2023, HRSA
developed a delinquent audit follow-up
process to ensure that all providers
required to submit an audit do so. The
delinquent audit follow-up process
includes educating PRP recipients on
the 45 CFR 75 subpart F requirements
and following up on overdue audit
report submissions. In February 2024,
OMB approved HRSA’s emergency ICR
for the Commercial Audit Reporting
Portal and the delinquent audit followup process. Collectively, these activities
will help ensure the fiscal and program
integrity of the PRP.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: HRSA will use the
collected information to ensure all PRP
recipients who expended over $750,000
in funding during the recipient’s fiscal
year submit an audit and resolve audit
findings, including recovery of any
funds used not in accordance with the
Terms and Conditions of the programs.
Likely Respondents: PRP recipients
who expended over $750,000 in funding
during their fiscal year.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.

HRSA specifically requests comments
on: (1) the necessity and utility of the
proposed information collection for the
proper performance of the agency’s
functions; (2) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4) the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology to minimize the information
collection burden.

abstracted below to the Office of
Management and Budget for review and
clearance in accordance with the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. FEMA invites
the general public to take this
opportunity to comment on an
extension of a currently approved
information collection. In accordance
with the requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, this notice seeks
comments concerning information
collected for eligible properties insured
under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) policies to certify the
floodproofing of residential basements.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before June 3, 2024.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this

Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (90–448,
SUMMARY:

Sfmt 4703
title XIII) and expanded by the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (93–234)
and requires that FEMA provide flood
insurance. FEMA delineates flood zones
on a Flood Insurance Rate Map to
identify Special Flood Hazard Areas
(SFHAs) in a community. 44 CFR
60.3(c)(2) requires that all new
construction and substantial
improvements of residential structures
within SFHA Zones A1–30, AE, AH,
and AO zones have the lowest floor,
including the basement, elevated to or
above the base flood level unless a
community-wide exception or sitespecific variance is granted. 44 CFR
60.6(a)(7) and 44 CFR 60.6(b)(1) allow
communities to apply for an exception
when circumstances present a hardship
that would not allow for adherence to
the requirement for elevation above the
base flood level. Exceptions granted
under 44 CFR 60.6(c) must meet the
conditions specified in the regulation.
When owners of residential structures
in these zones are seeking flood
insurance, they must be certified that
the structural design is floodproof.
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on January 31, 2024, at 89 FR
6124 with a 60-day public comment
period. One public comment was
received, and it did not specifically
address the proposed extension of the
collection of information on residential
basements insured under the NFIP, or
otherwise provide information relevant
to the Notice. FEMA determined that no
change in FEMA’s proposed extension
of the information collection related to
residential basements is required. 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: Residential Basement
Floodproofing Certificate.
Type of Information Collection:
Extension of a currently approved
information collection.
OMB Number: 1660–0033.
FEMA Forms: FEMA Form FF–206–
FY–21–122 (formerly 086–0–24),
Residential Basement Floodproofing
Certificate.
Abstract: The Residential Basement
Floodproofing Certificate is required to
certify that floodproofing of a structure
in communities approved for
Residential Basement floodproofing
meets at least minimal floodproofing
specifications. Residential structures
that receive this certification are granted
a discount on flood insurance
premiums.
