DMMP will need to seek additional
funding in order to develop the DMMP.
Nothing in the designation in this
paragraph (b)(4) or elsewhere guarantees
that any agency will be able to obtain
funding for the DMMP. This designation
shall not be interpreted as or constitute
a commitment that the United States
will obligate or expend funds in
contravention of the Anti-Deficiency
Act, 31 U.S.C. 1341. Rather, the sole
remedy for any failure to meet the

the EPA from exercising its statutory
authority to designate other ocean
disposal sites, not subject to the
restrictions in paragraph (b)(4)(vi), or
taking any subsequent action to modify
the site designation in paragraph (b)(4),
provided that the EPA makes any such
designation or takes such subsequent
action through a separate rulemaking in
accordance with all applicable legal
requirements. Nothing in this

Agency
44 CFR Part 64
[Docket No. FEMA–7879]
Suspension of Community Eligibility
AGENCY: Federal Emergency
Management Agency, Emergency
Preparedness and Response Directorate,
Department of Homeland Security.
ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: This rule identifies
communities, where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under
the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP), that are scheduled for
suspension on the effective dates listed
within this rule because of
noncompliance with the floodplain
management requirements of the
program. If the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) receives
documentation that the community has
adopted the required floodplain
management measures prior to the
effective suspension date given in this
rule, the suspension will not occur and
a notice of this will be provided by
publication in the Federal Register on a
subsequent date.
DATES: Effective Dates: The effective
date of each community’s scheduled
suspension is the third date (‘‘Susp.’’)
listed in the third column of the
following tables.
ADDRESSES: If you wish to determine
whether a particular community was
suspended on the suspension date,
contact the appropriate FEMA Regional
Office or the NFIP servicing contractor.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Michael M. Grimm, Mitigation Division,
500 C Street, SW.; Room 412,
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646–2878.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP
enables property owners to purchase
flood insurance which is generally not
otherwise available. In return,
communities agree to adopt and
administer local floodplain management
aimed at protecting lives and new
construction from future flooding.
Section 1315 of the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42
coverage as authorized under the
National Flood Insurance Program, 42
U.S.C. 4001 et seq.; unless an
appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed in
PO 00000 Frm 00040 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\03JNR1.SGM
this document no longer meet that
statutory requirement for compliance
with program regulations, 44 CFR part
59 et seq. Accordingly, the communities
will be suspended on the effective date
in the third column. As of that date,
flood insurance will no longer be
available in the community. However,
some of these communities may adopt
and submit the required documentation
of legally enforceable floodplain
management measures after this rule is
published but prior to the actual
suspension date. These communities
will not be suspended and will continue
their eligibility for the sale of insurance.
A notice withdrawing the suspension of
the communities will be published in
the Federal Register.
In addition, the Federal Emergency
Management Agency has identified the
special flood hazard areas in these
communities by publishing a Flood
Insurance Rate Map (FIRM). The date of
the FIRM if one has been published, is
indicated in the fourth column of the
table. No direct Federal financial
assistance (except assistance pursuant to
the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief
and Emergency Assistance Act not in
connection with a flood) may legally be
provided for construction or acquisition
of buildings in the identified special
flood hazard area of communities not
participating in the NFIP and identified
for more than a year, on the Federal
Emergency Management Agency’s
initial flood insurance map of the
community as having flood-prone areas
(section 202(a) of the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4106(a), as amended). This prohibition
against certain types of Federal
assistance becomes effective for the
communities listed on the date shown
in the last column. The Administrator
finds that notice and public comment
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) are impracticable
and unnecessary because communities
listed in this final rule have been
adequately notified.
Each community receives a 6-month,
90-day, and 30-day notification letter
addressed to the Chief Executive Officer
that the community will be suspended
unless the required floodplain
management measures are met prior to
the effective suspension date. Since
these notifications have been made, this
final rule may take effect within less
than 30 days.
National Environmental Policy Act.
This rule is categorically excluded from
the requirements of 44 CFR part 10,
Environmental Considerations. No
environmental impact assessment has
been prepared.
Regulatory Flexibility Act. The
Administrator has determined that this
03JNR1
 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 106 / Friday, June 3, 2005 / Rules and Regulations 32521

rule is exempt from the requirements of
the Regulatory Flexibility Act because
the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022,
prohibits flood insurance coverage
unless an appropriate public body
adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed no
longer comply with the statutory
requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurance will no longer be
available in the communities unless
they take remedial action.
Regulatory Classification. This final
rule is not a significant regulatory action
under the criteria of section 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866 of September 30,
1993, Regulatory Planning and Review,

Business Goals in Subcontracting
Plans
AGENCIES: General Services
Administration (GSA), Office of the
Chief Acquisition Officer.
ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: The General Services
Administration (GSA) is amending the
General Services Administration
Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) in order
to be consistent with the Federal
Acquisition Regulation (FAR), to update
GSAR clauses pertaining to
subcontracting plans to include veteran-
owned and service-disabled veteran-
owned small businesses.
DATES: Effective Date: June 3, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The
Regulatory Secretariat (VIR), Room
4035, GS Building, Washington, DC,
20405, (202) 501–4755, for information
pertaining to status or publication
schedules. For clarification of content,
contact Rhonda Cundiff, Procurement
Analyst, at (202) 501–0044. Please cite
Amendment 2005–02, GSAR case 2005–
G502 (Change 15).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
The General Services Administration
(GSA) is issuing a final rule to amend
the General Services Administration
Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) in order
to be consistent with changes to the
FAR made by FAR case 2000–302, in
Federal Acquisition Circulars 97–20,
2001–01 and 2001–01 Correction. These
changes implemented the Veterans
Entrepreneurship and Small Business
Development Act of 1999 (PL 106–50)
and the Small Business Reauthorization
Act of 2000 (part of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2001). FAR case
2000–302 added additional
subcontracting plan goal requirements
VerDate jul<14>2003 17:45 Jun 02, 2005 Jkt 205001
for veteran-owned and service-disabled
veteran-owned small business concerns.
This GSAR rule amends GSAR 552 to
incorporate these subcontracting plan
categories into subcontracting plans.
This is not a significant regulatory
action and, therefore, was not subject to
review under Section 6(b) of Executive
Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and
Review, dated September 30, 1993. This
rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C.
804.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act does
not apply to this rule. This final rule
does not constitute a significant GSAR
revision within the meaning of FAR
1.501 and Public Law 98–577, and
publication for public comments is not
required because the Federal
Acquisition Regulation already covers
the requirement for subcontracting goals
for veteran-owned small businesses and
service-disabled veteran-owned small
businesses.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does
not apply because the changes to the
GSAR do not impose recordkeeping or
information collection requirements, or
otherwise collect information from
offerors, contractors, or members of the
public that require approval of the
Office of Management and Budget under
44 U.S.C.3501, et seq.
This information is an extension of a
requirement already included in the
FAR. The only difference in the FAR
requirement and the GSAR requirement
in 519.705–2 is that for all negotiated
solicitations having an anticipated
award value over $500,000 ($1,000,000
for construction), submission of a
subcontracting plan by other than small
business concerns is required when a
negotiated acquisition meets four
conditions: (1) when the contracting
officer anticipates receiving individual
contract plans (not commercial plans);
(2) when the award is based on trade-
offs among cost or price and technical
and/or management factors under FAR
15.101–1; (3) the acquisition is not a
commercial item acquisition; and (4) the
acquisition offers more than minimal
subcontracting opportunities.
