(a) This part implements the require-ments of Executive Order 11988, Flood-plain Management, and employs the principles of the Unified National Pro-gram for Floodplain Management. It covers the proposed acquisition, con-stru

10、ction, improvement, disposition, fi-nancing and use of properties located in a floodplain for which approval is re-quired either from HUD under any ap-plicable HUD program or from a grant recipient subject to 24 CFR part 58. This part does not prohibit approval of such actions (except for certain ac

11、tions in high hazard areas), but provides a consistent means for implementing the Departments interpretation of the ex-ecutive order in the project approval decision making processes of HUD and of grant recipients subject to 24 CFR part 58. The implementation of Execu-tive Order 11988 under this par

12、t shall be conducted by HUD, for Department-ad-ministered programs subject to envi-ronmental review under 24 CFR part 50, and by authorized recipients of HUD fi-nancial assistance subject to environ-mental review under 24 CFR part 58.

This prohibition only applies to pro-posed HUD financial assistance in a FEMA-designated area of special flood hazard one year after the community has been formally notified by FEMA of the designation of the

16、affected area. This prohibition is not applicable to HUD financial assistance in the form of formula grants to states, including fi-nancial assistance under the State-ad-ministered CDBG Program (24 CFR part 570, subpart I) and the State-ad-ministered Rental Rehabilitation Pro-gram (24 CFR 511.51), E

(c) Except with respect to actions listed in 55.12(c), no HUD financial as-sistance (in

18、cluding mortgage insur-ance) may be approved after May 23, 1994 with respect to: (1) Any action, other than a function-ally dependent use, located in a floodway; (2) Any critical action located in a coastal high hazard area; or (3) Any non-critical action located in a coastal high hazard area, unles

19、s the action is designed for location in a coastal high hazard area or is a func-tionally dependent use. An action will be considered to be designed for loca-tion in a coastal high hazard area if: (i) In the case of new construction or substantial improvement, the work meets the current standards fo

20、r V zones in FEMA regulations (44 CFR 60.3(e) and, if applicable, the Minimum Property Standards for such construc-tion in 24 CFR 200.926d(c)(4)(iii); or (ii) In the case of existing construc-tion (including any minor improve-ments): (A) The work met FEMA elevation and construction standards for a c

21、oast-al high hazard area (or if such a zone or such standards were not designated, the 100-year floodplain) applicable at the time the original improvements were constructed; or (B) If the original improvements were constructed before FEMA stand-ards for the 100-year floodplain became effective or b

22、efore FEMA designated the location of the action as within the 100-year floodplain, the work would meet at least the earliest FEMA stand-ards for construction in the 100-year floodplain. 55.2 Terminology. (a) With the exception of those terms defined in paragraph (b) of this section, the terms used

23、in this part shall follow the definitions contained in section 6 of Executive Order 11988 and in the Flood-plain Management Guidelines for Im-plementing Executive Order 11988 (43 FR 6030, February 10, 1978) issued by the Water Resources Council; and the terms criteria and Regular Pro-gram, shall fol

24、low the definitions con-tained in FEMA regulations at 44 CFR 59.1. (b) The definitions of the following terms in Executive Order 11988 and re-lated documents affecting this part are modified for purposes of this part: (1) Coastal high hazard area means the area subject to high velocity waters, inclu

25、ding but not limited to hurricane wave wash or tsunamis. The area is designated on a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) under FEMA regulations as Zone V130, VE, or V. (FIRMs as well as Flood Hazard Boundary Maps (FHBM) shall also be relied on for the delineation of 100-year floodplains (55.2(b)(8), 500

26、-year floodplains (55.2(b)(3), and floodways (55.2(b)(4). (2)(i) Critical action means any activ-ity for which even a slight chance of flooding would be too great, because such flooding might result in loss of life, injury to persons, or damage to property. Critical actions include ac-tivities that

27、create, maintain or extend the useful life of those structures or fa-cilities that: (A) Produce, use or store highly vola-tile, flammable, explosive, toxic or water-reactive materials; (B) Provide essential and irreplace-able records or utility or emergency VerDate Mar2010 08:31 Apr 29, 2011 Jkt 223

30、f life or injury during flood or storm events, e.g., persons who re-side in hospitals, nursing homes, con-valescent homes, intermediate care fa-cilities, board and care facilities, and retirement service centers. Housing for independent living for the elderly is not considered a critical action. (ii

31、) Critical actions shall not be ap-proved in floodways or coastal high hazard areas. (3) 500-year floodplain means the min-imum floodplain of concern for Critical Actions and is the area subject to inun-dation from a flood having a 0.2 percent chance of occurring in any given year. (See 55.2(b)(1) f

32、or appropriate data sources.) (4) Floodway means that portion of the floodplain which is effective in car-rying flow, where the flood hazard is generally the greatest, and where water depths and velocities are the highest. The term floodway as used here is consistent with regulatory floodways as ide

33、ntified by FEMA. (See 55.2(b)(1) for appropriate data sources.) (5) Functionally dependent use means a land use that must necessarily be conducted in close proximity to water (e.g., a dam, marina, port facility, water-front park, and many types of bridges). (6) High hazard area means a floodway or a

34、 coastal high hazard area. (7) 100-year floodplain means the floodplain of concern for this part and is the area subject to a one percent or greater chance of flooding in any given year. (See 55.2(b)(1) for appropriate data sources.) (8)(i) Substantial improvement means either: (A) Any repair, recon

35、struction, mod-ernization or improvement of a struc-ture, the cost of which equals or ex-ceeds 50 percent of the market value of the structure either: (1) Before the improvement or repair is started; or (2) If the structure has been damaged, and is being restored, before the dam-age occurred; or (B)

36、 Any repair, reconstruction, mod-ernization or improvement of a struc-ture that results in an increase of more than twenty percent in the number of dwelling units in a residential project or in the average peak number of cus-tomers and employees likely to be on- site at any one time for a commercial

37、 or industrial project. (ii) Substantial improvement may not be defined to include either: (A) Any project for improvement of a structure to comply with existing state or local health, sanitary or safety code specifications that is solely necessary to assure safe living conditions, or (B) Any altera

38、tion of a structure list-ed on the National Register of Histor-ical Places or on a State Inventory of Historic Places. (iii) Structural repairs, reconstruc-tion, or improvements not meeting this definition are considered minor im-provements. 55.3 Assignment of responsibilities. (a)(1) The Assistant
