Agency Information Collection
Activities: Submission for OMB
Review, Comment Request; Disaster
Assistance Registration
Federal Emergency
Management Agency, Department of
Homeland Security.
ACTION: 30 Day notice of revision and
request for comments.
AGENCY:

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 changes to
modernize and simplify the disaster
assistance registration. The changes will
reduce the burden on survivors by only
requiring them to answer questions
based on the type of assistance they
need. This will also reduce the amount
of time it takes for survivors to apply
either online, or through a call center,
therefore allowing call center agents to
assist survivors more quickly. The
notice also includes FEMA
documenting all post-registration
contacts, including callouts, casework,
and auto-dialers performed for the
purpose of determining whether disaster
assistance applicants have unmet needs
and may be eligible for additional
assistance and/or share the results of
those contacts directly with external
stakeholders, such as state or local
government partners, who can
potentially assist those same applicants
with assistance or services not provided
by FEMA through specific programs
directly targeted to disaster survivors.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before March 24, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act (Pub. L. 93–
288, as amended) (the Stafford Act) 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
Presidentially-declared disaster.
Regulations in title 44 CFR, subpart D,
‘‘Federal Assistance to Individuals and
Households,’’ implement the policy and
procedures set forth in section 408 of
the Stafford Act. Housing Assistance
(HA) is a provision of the Individuals
and Households Program (IHP),
authorized by section 408(c) of the
Stafford Act. There are two forms of
assistance: financial and direct.
Financial Housing Assistance refers to
funds provided to eligible applicants for
temporary lodging expenses, rental of
temporary housing, or repair or
replacement of a damaged primary
residence. Direct Temporary Housing
Assistance includes providing
Temporary Housing Units (THU)
through Multi-Family Lease or Repair
(MLR) or Direct Lease, or placing
transportable temporary housings
(TTHU), such as manufactured housing
units (MHU) and recreational vehicles
or travel trailers, on private,
commercial, or group sites. This
program provides financial assistance
and, if necessary, direct assistance to
eligible individuals and households
who, as a direct result of a major
disaster, have necessary expenses and
serious needs that are unable to be met
through other means. Individuals and
households may apply for assistance
through the Registration Intake (RI)
process under the IHP in person, via
telephone, or the internet. FEMA
provides financial assistance under

medical, dental, funeral, childcare,
personal property, transportation,
moving and storage expenses, and other
necessary expenses or serious needs
resulting from a major disaster under
section 408(e)(1) of the Stafford Act.
The changes to the following forms
support Executive Order 14058,
Transforming Federal Customer
Experience and Service Delivery to
Rebuild Trust in Government. The
changes will rebuild trust in the Federal
Government by promoting transparency
of FEMA’s Disaster Assistance
application process. The major changes

In documenting all post-registration
callouts, auto-dialer contacts and
subsequent collection of data, FEMA
can determine whether applicants have
unmet needs, can process the applicant
for financial or direct assistance sharing
the results of those contacts directly
with external stakeholders. This data is
specifically used for FEMA and its
stakeholders to determine whether
assistance is warranted.

Abstract: The forms in this collection

necessary, direct assistance to eligible

collection will improve the applicant’s
experience with the disaster assistance
registration process by providing a
simpler, more intuitive interface and
limiting required responses to those

changes will rebuild trust in the Federal
Government by promoting transparency
of FEMA’s Disaster Assistance
application process.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pertaining
to National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP) Direct claim forms, Congress
created the NFIP through the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (NFIA)
(Title XIII of Pub. L. 90–448, 82 Stat.
476), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq.
The NFIP enables property owners in
participating communities to purchase
flood insurance. Communities
participate in the NFIP based on an
agreement between the community and
Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA). If a community adopts and
enforces a floodplain management
ordinance to reduce future flood risk to
new construction in floodplains, FEMA
makes flood insurance available within
the community as a financial protection
against flood losses. Accordingly, the
NFIP is comprised of three key
activities: flood insurance, floodplain
management, and flood hazard
mapping.
A prospective policyholder may
purchase an NFIP flood insurance
policy, known as a Standard Flood
Insurance Policy (SFIP), either: (1)
directly from the Federal Government
through a direct servicing agent
(referred to as ‘‘NFIP Direct’’), or (2)
from a participating private insurance
company through the Write Your Own
(WYO) Program. See 44 CFR 62.23–24.
The SFIP is a single-peril (flood) policy
that pays for direct physical damage to
insured property. There are three SFIP
policy forms (i.e., insurance contracts):
(1) Dwelling Form, (2) General Property
Form, and (3) Residential Condominium
Building Association Policy (RCBAP)
Form, which are published in FEMA’s
regulations. See 44 CFR 61.13; see also
44 CFR part 61, Appendices A(1), A(2),
and A(3). The SFIP sets out the terms
and conditions of insurance. FEMA
establishes terms, rate structures, and
premium costs of the SFIP. The terms,
coverage limits, and flood insurance
premiums are the same whether
purchased from the NFIP Direct or the
WYO Program. See 44 CFR 62.23(c), (h).
All flood loss claims presented under
the NFIP are paid directly with U.S.
Treasury funds, regardless of whether
the policy is issued by the NFIP Direct
or by a WYO company. The information
in the NFIP Direct collection includes
all the data necessary to adjudicate
claims for damages and provide SFIP
benefits resulting from flood losses.
In addition to the requirements of the
NFIA, section 205 of the BunningBereuter-Blumenauer Flood Insurance
