The Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) will
submit the information collection
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. The submission
seeks comments concerning information
collected for the selling and servicing of
National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP) policies by FEMA’s direct
servicing agent, NFIP Direct.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before March 24, 2023.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or
copies of the information collection
should be made to Director, Information
Management Division, 500 C Street SW,
Washington, DC 20472, email address:
[email protected] or Joycelyn
Collins, Underwriting Branch Program
Analyst, Federal Insurance Directorate,
at 202–701–3383 or Joycelyn.Collins@
fema.dhs.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP
is authorized by Public Law 90–448
(1968) and expanded by Public Law 93–
234 (1973). The National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968 requires FEMA to
provide flood insurance at full actuarial
rates, reflecting the complete flood risk
to structures built or substantially
improved, on or after the effective date
for the initial Flood Insurance Rate Map
for the community, so that the risks
associated with buildings in flood-prone
areas are borne by those located in such
areas and not by taxpayers at large. In
accordance with Public Law 93–234, the
purchase of flood insurance is
mandatory when Federal or federally
related financial assistance is being
provided for acquisition or construction
of buildings located, or to be located,
within FEMA-identified special flood
hazard areas of communities that
participate in the NFIP.
FEMA also proposes changes to this
information collection to implement a
revised risk rating methodology that
will apply to all policies issued or
renewed on or after October 1, 2021.
This revised methodology will require
FEMA to collect new information
necessary to sell and service flood

insurance policies. However, the revised
methodology is not expected to increase
the overall information collection
burden on the public due to the use of
data from sources other than
policyholders. As a result of this revised
methodology, FEMA proposes to modify
FEMA Forms FF–206–FY–21–117
(formerly 086–0–1), FF–206–FY–21–118
(formerly 086–0–2), and FF–206–FY–
21–119 (formerly 086–0–3).
During the transition to the revised
rating methodology, FEMA still needed
to maintain the existing forms in this
information collection. As a result,
FEMA added FEMA Forms 086–0–1T,
086–0–2T, 086–0–3T, and 086–0–5T to
this information collection. Now that
the transition to the revised risk rating
methodology has been completed,
effective April 1, 2022, FEMA has
discontinued the use of these forms and
is removing them from this information
collection.
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on December 7, 2022, at 87 FR
75060 with a 60 day public comment
period. One complimentary comment
was received and FEMA thanks the
commentor. This notice also corrects a
minor typographical error in the
previously published notice, which
listed the number of respondents as
372,522 when the correct number of
respondents is 372,422. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Post
Katrina Management Reform Act
(PKEMRA), codified within title 6
U.S.C. requires the FEMA Administrator
to provide Federal leadership necessary
to prepare for, protect against, respond
to, recover from or mitigate against a
natural disaster, act of terrorism, or
other man-made disaster. This

responsibility includes planning,
training, and building the emergency
management profession by building a
comprehensive incident management
system with Federal, state, and local
government personnel, agencies and
authorities, and helping the emergency
response providers to effectively
respond. See 6 U.S.C. 314. As part of
this responsibility to help and support
emergency response providers, FEMA
supports efforts to train and assist in
organizing citizen responder programs.
With E.O. 13254, Establishing the USA
Freedom Corps (67 FR 4869, Feb. 1,
2002) Citizen Corps was launched as a
Presidential Initiative on January 29,
2002, with a mission to harness the
power of every individual through
education, training, and volunteer
service to make communities safer,
stronger, and better prepared for the
threats of terrorism, crime, public health
issues, and disasters of all kinds.
Another FEMA Citizen Responder
program, the CERT was originally
developed and implemented by the Los
Angeles City Fire Department in 1985.
Since 1993 when this training was made
available nationally by FEMA,
communities in 28 states and Puerto
Rico have conducted CERT training.
FEMA supports CERT by conducting or
sponsoring Train-the-Trainer and
Program Manager courses for members
of the fire, medical and emergency
management community.
To fulfill its mission, FEMA’s
Individual and Community
Preparedness Division (ICPD) will
collect information from Citizen Corps
Councils and CERT Programs through
the Citizen Responder online
registration form. The Citizen
Responder registration form will allow
FEMA as well as state, local, Tribal and
territorial personnel to evaluate whether
prospective Councils/CERTs have the
support of the appropriate government
officials in their area, ensure a dedicated
coordinator is assigned to the program,
and provide an efficient way to track the
effectiveness of the nationwide network
of Councils and CERT programs.
This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal
Register on December 5, 2022, at 87 FR
74434 with a 60-day public comment
period. No comments were received.
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.
