The agency is strongly reminded of its responsibility to comply with all of the disclosure requirements in the Paperwork Reduction Act and 5 CFR 1320. Failure to do so jeopardizes the agency's ability to enforce this collection or deny benefits to communities that fail to submit information. Thus the agency must immediately review this collection to ensure that the OMB number is properly displayed and that the respondents are informed of the significance of the OMB number. These changes must be made immediately and revisions distributed to all participants in the program. OMB notes that the handbook must also comply with the PRA because it provides instructions for the application process and for the reverification process which requires an information collection. OMB also notes that the agency failed to comply with previous terms of clearance for this collection which gave a similar instruction. For this reason, this collection is approved for only 18 months.

The CRS Program establishes a system for FEMA to grade communities' floodplain management activities that exceed Federal minimum standards to qualify for lower insurance rates. The January 1999 edition of the NFIP CRS Coordinator's Manual contains instructions for preparing the application worksheets that will be used to apply for activity points leading up to a CRS rating and commensurate flood insurance premium discounts. The schedules describe the floodplain management and insurance activities available to qualifying communities that undertake the selected additional activities that will reduce flood losses.
