Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 224 / Wednesday, November 22, 2017 / Notices

with interim recommendations on
conditions for authorization of service
providers (MSC.1/Circ.1277). The USCG
released the Navigation and Vessel
Inspection Circular (NVIC) 04–07
‘‘Servicing and Maintenance of
lifeboats, launching appliances and onload release gear’’ to provide guidance
to US flag vessels subject to SOLAS.
Subsequently, the Contracting
Governments to SOLAS agreed to adopt
mandatory requirements for servicing
and service providers through IMO
Resolution MSC.402(96), implemented
by amendments to SOLAS Chapter III by
Resolution MSC.404(96).
These SOLAS amendments enter into
force on January 1, 2020. After that date,
we expect that U.S. flag vessels subject
to SOLAS could be subject to detention
in foreign ports if their lifeboat service
records do not comply with SOLAS
Chapter III as amended.
The key substantive requirements are:
• That maintenance, thorough
examination, operational testing,
overhaul and repair on board its ships
is conducted in accordance with
relevant regulations in SOLAS Chapter
III.
• Administrations (i.e. USCG) shall
ensure that the thorough examination,
operational testing, repair and overhaul
of equipment shall be carried out in
accordance with SOLAS regulation III/
20 by authorizing service providers.
• That personnel carrying out
maintenance, thorough examination,
operational testing overhaul and repair
as described above shall be certified by
an authorized service provider.
II. Public Town Hall Meeting

Section III of the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION. Public comments will be

the meeting.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act, Public Law
93–288, as amended, is the legal basis
for FEMA to provide financial
assistance and services to individuals
who apply for disaster assistance
benefits in the event of a federallydeclared disaster. 44 CFR 206.110
implements the policy and procedures
set forth in section 408 of the Robert T.
Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5174, as
amended by the Disaster Mitigation Act
of 2000. This program provides
financial assistance and, if necessary,
direct assistance to eligible individuals
and households who, as a direct result
of a major disaster or emergency, have
uninsured or under-insured necessary
expenses and serious needs and are
unable to meet such expenses or needs
through other means. Individuals and
households that apply for this assistance
must provide information detailing their
losses and need.
FEMA requires the ability to collect
information regarding the housing needs
of survivors in shelters to provide
services and assistance to transition
them out of shelters and into temporary
housing solutions as quickly as possible.
Survivor-specific data collected in the
shelters would be compared to survivor
registration data to determine:
• Has the survivor in the shelter
registered for FEMA assistance?
• If registered, what is the status of
the survivor’s registration? Do they have
resources such as Transitional

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001

Sheltering Assistance (TSA) eligibility
or financial rental assistance, available
to them?
• If registered and not eligible for
FEMA assistance, is there casework that
could be performed to find eligibility?
• If not registered, information would
be provided to the Joint Field Office
(JFO) to have a registration strike team
travel to the shelter and register the
survivor.
Aggregated reports resulting from the
individualized data collection will
support JFO planning activities for
shelter depopulation to ensure that
survivors are transitioned as quickly as
possible to housing solutions that best
meet their need.
Collection of Information
Title: Survivor Sheltering Assessment.
Type of Information Collection:
Currently approved information
collection with change.
OMB Number: OMB No. 1660–0142.

Survivor Sheltering Assessment.
Abstract: When a Presidential
federally declared disaster or emergency
occurs, impacted survivors often find
themselves temporarily housed in
shelters until they are able to return to

the registration status and housing
situation using an electronic copy of
FEMA Form 009–0–42 Survivor
Sheltering Assessment to record the

Support Environment Cloud
Environment (DMSE CE) database. The
purpose of this survey is to help FEMA
understand how best it can support

eligibility for assistance. Eligibility for
assistance will only be determined
through the separate registration
process.
