SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed information collection
previously published in the Federal Register on September 14, 2021, at
86 FR 51174 with a 60-day public comment period. One public comment was
received. FEMA acknowledges and appreciates the comment made; however,
the comment was not germane to the program, meaning no further action

Section 322 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency
Assistance Act (Stafford Act), 42 U.S.C. 5165, as amended by the

provides the 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. Title 44

any losses from hazards, and to establish a coordinated process to
implement the plan, taking advantage of a wide range of resources.
