EHDI–PALS is a project
conceptualized by the CDC–EHDI team
with input from an advisory group of
external partners. EHDI–PALs
workgroup has broad representation
from American Speech-LanguageHearing Association (ASHA), American
Academy of Audiology (AAA), Joint
Committee on Infant Hearing (JCIH),
National Centre for Hearing Assessment
and Management (NCHAM), Directors of
Speech and Hearing Programs in State
Health & Welfare Agencies
(DSHPSHWA), Healthcare Resources
and Services Administration (HRSA),
University of Maine Center for Research
and Evaluation, and Hands & Voices
(H&V). Meeting since April 2010, the
EHDI–PALS workgroup has sought
consensus on the loss to follow up/loss
to documentation issue facing the EHDI
programs. A survey, based on standard
of care practice, was developed for state
EHDI programs to quantify the pediatric
audiology resource distribution within

ASHA’s biannual membership survey
(available in ASHA.org) we estimate
approximately 1500 audiologists will
respond to the survey. To minimize
burden and improve convenience, the
survey will be available via a secure
password protected Web site. Placing
the survey on the Internet ensures
convenient, on-demand access by the
audiologists. Financial cost is
minimized because no mailing fee will
be associated with sending or
responding to this survey.
It is estimated that potentially 2000
audiologists will read through the
purpose statement of this survey located
on page one to decide whether or not to
complete the survey. It is estimated that
potentially 1500 audiologists will
complete the survey, which will average
9 minutes per respondent. The
estimated annual burden is 258 hours.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time.

their state, particularly audiology
facilities that are equipped to provide
follow up services for children age 5
and younger. The survey will also
capture how often providers report
diagnostic hearing test results to their
state EHDI jurisdiction.
CDC is requesting OMB approval to
collect audiology facility information
from audiologists or facility managers
over a one-year period. The survey will
allow CDC–EHDI team and state EHDI
programs to compile a systematic,
quantifiable distribution of audiology
facilities and the capacity of each
facility to provide services for children
age 5 and younger. The data collected
will also allow the CDC–EHDI team to
analyze facility distribution data to
improve technical assistance to State
EHDI programs.
Respondents will all be audiologists
who manage a facility or provide
audiologic care for children age 5 and
younger. Based on calculation from

Changes in Flood Hazard
Determinations
Federal Emergency
Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Final Notice.
AGENCY:

SUMMARY: New or modified Base (1%
annual-chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs),
base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard
Area (SFHA) boundaries or zone
designations, and/or the regulatory
floodway (hereinafter referred to as
flood hazard determinations) as shown
on the indicated Letter of Map Revision
(LOMR) for each of the communities
listed in the table below are finalized.
Each LOMR revises the Flood Insurance
Rate Maps (FIRMs), and in some cases
the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) reports,
currently in effect for the listed
communities. The flood hazard
determinations modified by each LOMR
will be used to calculate flood insurance
premium rates for new buildings and
their contents.
DATES: The effective date for each
LOMR is indicated in the table below.
ADDRESSES: Each LOMR is available for
inspection at both the respective
Community Map Repository address
listed in the table below and online
through the FEMA Map Service Center
at www.msc.fema.gov.

Rodriguez, Chief, Engineering
Management Branch, Federal Insurance
and Mitigation Administration, FEMA,

fmx_main.html.
The
Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) makes the final flood hazard
determinations as shown in the LOMRs
for each community listed in the table
below. Notice of these modified flood
hazard determinations has been
published in newspapers of local
circulation and ninety (90) days have
elapsed since that publication. The
Deputy Associate Administrator for
Mitigation has resolved any appeals
resulting from this notification.
The modified flood hazard
determinations are made pursuant to
section 206 of the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105,
and are in accordance with the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C.
4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65.
For rating purposes, the currently
effective community number is shown
and must be used for all new policies
and renewals.
The new or modified flood hazard
determinations are the basis for the
floodplain management measures that
the community is required either to
adopt or to show evidence of being
already in effect in order to remain
qualified for participation in the
National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
These new or modified flood hazard
determinations, together with the
floodplain management criteria required
by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum that
are required. They should not be
construed to mean that the community
must change any existing ordinances
that are more stringent in their
floodplain management requirements.
The community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own or
pursuant to policies established by other
Federal, State, or regional entities.
These new or modified flood hazard
determinations are used to meet the
floodplain management requirements of
the NFIP and also are used to calculate
the appropriate flood insurance
premium rates for new buildings, and
for the contents in those buildings. The
changes in flood hazard determinations
are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
Interested lessees and owners of real
property are encouraged to review the
final flood hazard information available
at the address cited below for each
community or online through the FEMA
Map Service Center at
www.msc.fema.gov.
