Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 160 / Thursday, August 21, 2025 / Notices

Relief and Emergency Assistance Act
(Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C. 5165, as
amended by the Disaster Mitigation Act
of 2000 (DMA 2000) (Pub. L. 106–390),
provided the initial framework for
linking pre-and post-disaster mitigation
planning and initiatives with public and
private interests to ensure an integrated,
comprehensive approach to disaster loss
reduction. Since DMA 2000 amended
the Stafford Act, additional laws were
passed to help shape hazard mitigation
policy. These revisions are included in
the Sandy Recovery Improvement Act of
2013, the National Flood Insurance Act
of 1968, and the Water Infrastructure
Improvements for the Nation Act of
2016. Title 44 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) Part 201 provides the
mitigation planning requirements for
state, local, tribal, and territorial
governments to identify the natural
hazards that impact them, to identify
actions and activities to reduce any
losses from hazards, and to establish a
coordinated process to implement the
plan, taking advantage of a wide range
of resources. State, local, and Tribal
mitigation planning policies provide
further guidance regarding mitigation
plan development or update, review,
and approval.
This proposed information collection
was previously published in the Federal
Register on April 30, 2025, at 90 FR
17945 with a 60-day public comment
period. FEMA received seven public
comments. Five of the anonymously
submitted comments shared general
program feedback on the value of hazard
mitigation planning. FEMA
acknowledges and appreciates these
comments. Two comments specifically
mentioned administrative burden for
plan updates. FEMA acknowledges and
appreciates the comments made; the
feedback is being taken under
consideration for future policy updates.
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.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Section
102(a) of the HUD Reform Act (42 U.S.C.
3545(a)) sets out the requirements for
notice to the public regarding assistance
available from HUD. Section 102(a)(3)
requires publication of selection criteria
not less than 30 days before the
deadline for applications or requests for
assistance. On July 29, 2025, the
Department published four NOFOs for
FHIP (the FHIP Education and Outreach
Initiative (FR–6900–N–21–A); the
FHIP—Fair Housing Organizations
Initiative (FHOI) (FR–6900–N–21–B);
the FHIP—Private Enforcement
Initiative (PEI) (FR–6900–N–21–C); and
the FHIP—Education and Outreach
Initiative—Test Coordinator (FR–6900–
N–71–A)) announcing the availability of
over $22 million in Fiscal Year 2024
FHIP funds, which were appropriated in
the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2024 (Pub. L. 118–42).
The July 29, 2025, NOFOs announced
a funding application deadline of 11:59
p.m. EST on August 21, 2025. The
period was less than the 30-day
minimum application requirement
under section 102(a)(3). Section
102(a)(5) of the Reform Act permits the
Secretary to waive the minimum 30-day
application period ‘‘if the Secretary
determines that the waiver is required
for appropriate response to an
emergency.’’ The Secretary is also
required to publish, in the Federal
Register, the reasons for granting such a
waiver.
