Guard’s ability to accomplish its
operational mission requirements
throughout the Pacific Northwest and
Arctic operational areas from Base
Seattle. The No-Action Alternative
would also leave requirements
unfulfilled. The Coast Guard would not
be able to continually comply with its
statutory mandated missions effectively
and efficiently. This alternative was
analyzed in the PEIS to comply with
Council of Environmental Quality (CEQ)
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) regulations (40 Code of Federal
Regulations [CFR] § 1502.14[c]) and to
provide a comparative baseline against
which to evaluate impacts of the
Proposed Action and alternatives.
Resource areas analyzed in the Final
PEIS include land use and coastal zone
management, geological resources,
water resources, transportation, air
quality, biological resources,
socioeconomics and environmental
justice, cultural resources, noise,
utilities and public services, hazardous
materials and wastes, visual resources,
recreational resources, and greenhouse
gases and climate change.
Based on the analysis presented in the
Final PEIS, potentially significant direct
or indirect adverse impacts could occur
to land use, socioeconomics and
environmental justice, and cultural
resources. Adverse cumulative impacts
could occur to geological resources,
water resources, biological resources,
cultural resources, hazardous materials
and wastes, and visual resources.
Impacts to all other resource areas
would be less-than-significant or
beneficial. Base facilities and
infrastructure improvements represent a
long-term development program that
will require a multi-year capital
investment strategy. Specific projects
may require additional NEPA evaluation
and compliance with other
environmental laws and regulations
when they are programmed for
implementation.
Following a 30-day waiting period,
after publication of the Environmental
Protection Agency’s NOA in the Federal
Register, the Coast Guard will announce
its Record of Decision, which will be
published in the Federal Register.
Dated: November 5, 2024.

Management Agency, Department of
Homeland Security.
ACTION: Notice.
Comments are requested on
proposed flood hazard determinations,
which may include additions or
modifications of any Base Flood
Elevation (BFE), base flood depth,
Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)
boundary or zone designation, or
regulatory floodway on the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and
where applicable, in the supporting
Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports for
the communities listed in the table
below. The purpose of this notice is to
seek general information and comment
regarding the preliminary FIRM, and
where applicable, the FIS report that the
Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) has provided to the affected
communities. The FIRM and FIS report
are the basis of the floodplain
management measures that the
community is required either to adopt
or to show evidence of having in effect
in order to qualify or remain qualified
for participation in the National Flood
Insurance Program (NFIP).
DATES: Comments are to be submitted
on or before February 13, 2025.
ADDRESSES: The Preliminary FIRM, and
where applicable, the FIS report for
each community are available for
inspection at both the online location
https://hazards.fema.gov/femaportal/
prelimdownload and the respective
Community Map Repository address
listed in the tables below. Additionally,
the current effective FIRM and FIS
report for each community are
accessible online through the FEMA

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://

Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation will be
available at https://www.reginfo.gov
upon its submission to OMB. Therefore,
in preparation for OMB review and
approval of the following information
collection, TSA is soliciting comments
to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control Number 1652–0055;
Pipeline Operator Security Information.
In addition to TSA’s broad
responsibility and authority for
‘‘security in all modes of transportation
. . . including security responsibilities
. . . over modes of transportation [,]’’
see 49 U.S.C. 114, TSA is required to
issue recommendations for pipeline
security measures and conduct
inspections to assess implementation of
the recommendations. See sec. 1557 of
the Implementing Recommendations of
the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007,
Public Law 110–53 (August 3, 2007).
Consistent with these requirements,
PO 00000
Frm 00046

TSA produced Pipeline Security
Guidelines in December 2010 and 2011,
with an update published in April 2021.
These voluntary guidelines were
developed with the assistance of
industry and government members of
the Pipeline Sector and Government
Coordinating Councils, industry
association representatives, and other
interested parties.
Voluntary Collection. As the lead
Federal agency for pipeline security and
consistent with its statutory authorities,
TSA needs to be notified of all (1)
incidents that may indicate a deliberate
attempt to disrupt pipeline operations
and (2) activities that could be
precursors to such an attempt. The
Pipeline Security Guidelines encourage
pipeline operators to notify the
Transportation Security Operations
Center via phone or email as soon as
possible if incidents occur or if there is
other reason to believe that a terrorist
incident may be planned or may have
occurred. When voluntarily contacting
the Transportation Security Operations
Center, the Guidelines request pipeline
operators to provide as much
information about the incident as
possible.
Mandatory Collection. In May 2021,
TSA issued a Security Directive (SD)
series with requirements for owner/
operators of hazardous liquid and
natural gas pipelines and liquefied
natural gas facilities that TSA
designated as critical. The SD series
included two mandatory information
collections:
1. TSA requires all owner/operators
subject to the SD’s requirements to
report actual or potential cybersecurity
incidents affecting their information
technology and operational technology
systems to the Cybersecurity and
Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
within 24 hours of discovery, using the
CISA Incident Reporting System.
