FEMA Forms 086-0-22 and 086-0-22A are designed to assist respondents in gathering information that FEMA needs to determine whether a certain single-lot property or structure is likely to be flooded during a flood event that has a 1-percent annual chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (base flood).
The annual burden hours increased from 31,680 to 45,060, representing an increase of 13,380. This increase, reflected as an adjustment, is due to an increase in estimated annual responses from the previous collection. The increase in the number of responses can be attributed to the issuance of new Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) for numerous communities in FY09. The new or revised flood hazard areas had an impact on many homeowners in these communities and therefore an increased number of responses to this collection were received.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
