SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Presidential Policy Directive 8 (PPD–8:
National Preparedness), issued on
March 30, 2011, establishes a National
Preparedness Goal (NPG) that identifies
the core capabilities necessary for
preparedness and a National
Preparedness System (NPS) which
guides activities to enable the Nation to
achieve the NPG. The NPS allows the
Nation to track the progress of our
ability to build and improve the
capabilities necessary to prevent,
protect against, mitigate the effects of,
respond to, and recover from those
threats that pose the greatest risk to the
security of the Nation.
The NPS provides an integrated
approach to preparedness that can be
implemented and measured at all levels
of government. This system is an all-ofNation and whole community approach
to preparedness, from neighborhood
organizations to civic groups and
private businesses. It contains a
methodical approach integrated across
the preparedness cycle and links
together programs and requirements
into a comprehensive system, driving
rational decision-making and allowing
for a direct and defensible assessment of
progress against clearly defined
objectives.
The NPS is based on a consistent
methodology for assessing the threats
and hazards facing a given jurisdiction.
The findings of the assessment drive
planning factors and all other
components of the preparedness cycle
including resource requirements,
existing capabilities and capability gaps,
driving investments to close those gaps,
making and validating improvements in
capabilities through training and

exercising, and continually assessing
progress.
Section 648(b)(1) of the Post-Katrina
Emergency Management Reform Act of
2006 (6 U.S.C. 748(b)(1)) also provides
for these exercises and states the
Administrator ‘‘shall carry out a
national exercise program to test and
evaluate the national preparedness goal,
National Incident Management System,
National Response, and other related
plans and strategies.’’ The Homeland
Security Exercise and Evaluation
Program (HSEEP) provides the program
structure, multi-year planning system,
tools, and guidance necessary for
entities to build and sustain exercise
programs that enhance homeland
security capabilities, and ultimately,
preparedness. The HSEEP After Action
Report Improvement, Integrated
Preparedness Plan, and National
Exercise Program Support Request
Forms provide the standardized
methods for reporting the results of
exercises, identifying exercise program
priorities, and submitting exercise
nominations necessary to validate
national preparedness capabilities.

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

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.

Program Policy Forms.
