This rule identifies communities, where the sale of flood insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), that are scheduled for suspension on the effective dates listed within this rule because of noncompliance with the floodplain management requirements of the program. If the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) receives documentation that the community has adopted the required floodplain management measures prior to the effective suspension date given in this rule, the suspension will not occur and a notice of this will be provided by publication in the Federal Register on a subsequent date.

Privacy Act of 1974; Department of Homeland Security Office of Operations Coordination and Planning-002 National Operations Center Tracker and Senior Watch Officer Logs System of Records
Document Number: 2011-5100
Type: Notice
Date: 2011-03-08
Agency: Department of Homeland Security, Office of the Secretary
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the Department of Homeland Security proposes to establish a new Department of Homeland Security system of records notice titled, ``Department of Homeland Security Office of Operations Coordination and Planning002 National Operations Center Tracker and Senior Watch Officer Logs System of Records.'' This system of records consists of a National Operations Center and Senior Watch Officer Tracker Logs. The Senior Watch Officer Tracker Log is a synopsis, in the form of a word document, that records all significant information received and actions taken by the Senior Watch Officer during the shift. The National Operations Center Tracker Log is the underlying cumulative repository of responses to all-threats and all-hazards, man-made disasters and acts of terrorism, and natural disasters, and requests for information that require a National Operations Center tracking number. The National Operations Center tracker numbers are used in a wide variety of products originated by the Department or external sources. They are shared inside and outside of the Department and serve as shorthand for tying data, used in internal and external reports, and agency actions to the event that caused them. The National Operations Center Tracker Log contains a copy of all documents and information that is requested, shared, and/or researched between all National Operations Center Watch Officer Desks. Because of the depth and breadth of information that the NOC receives, categories of individuals and records are broad so as to cover the possibility of this personally identifiable information entering this Privacy Act system of records within the NOC. Some of the records in this system are in part transferred from the Department of Homeland Security/Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection001 Homeland Security Operations Center Database system of records, April 15, 2005, with the overall intent of narrowing the focus of these records to the specific purpose outlined in this system of records notice. It is the Department's intent, after all records are transferred into this and other system of records, to retire the Department of Homeland Security/Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection001 Homeland Security Operations Center Database system of records. The Department of Homeland Security has issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking consistent with this system of records elsewhere in the Federal Register. This newly established system will be included in the Department of Homeland Security's inventory of record systems.

Privacy Act of 1974: Implementation of Exemptions; Department of Homeland Security Office of Operations Coordination and Planning-002 National Operations Center Tracker and Senior Watch Officer Logs System of Records
Document Number: 2011-5094
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2011-03-08
Agency: Department of Homeland Security, Office of the Secretary
The Department of Homeland Security is giving concurrent notice of a newly established system of records pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974 for the Department of Homeland Security Office of Operations Coordination and Planning002 National Operations Center Tracker and Senior Watch Officer Logs System of Records and this proposed rulemaking. The National Operations Center and Senior Watch Officer tracking functions were previously covered by Department of Homeland Security/Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection 001 Homeland Security Operations Center Database, April 18, 2005. In this proposed rulemaking, the Department proposes to exempt portions of the system of records from one or more provisions of the Privacy Act because of criminal, civil, and administrative enforcement requirements.
