Federal Emergency Management Agency March 15, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On September 5, 2008, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) published a notice in the Federal Register that announced FEMA's intention to implement a revised recoupment process, where warranted, on an individual basis pursuant to the procedures established by regulation for the administrative collection of debts. Now FEMA is providing notice of its revised recoupment process and the availability of the ``FEMA Debt Resolution Process: In Summary,'' a document which includes a section describing ``Your Rights and Options'' and provides general information to the public on FEMA's revised recoupment procedures. The revised procedures provide the opportunity for individuals to request an oral hearing.
