SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973,
Section 2(a)(6), 42 U.S.C. 4002(a)(6), Congress finds it is in the
public interest for persons already living in flood prone areas to have
an opportunity to purchase flood insurance and access to more adequate
limits of coverage to be indemnified for their losses in the event of
future flood disasters. To this end, FEMA established and carries out a
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), which enables interested
persons to purchase insurance against loss resulting from physical
damage to or loss of real or personal property arising from any flood
occurring in the United States. 42 U.S.C. 4011. In carrying out the
NFIP, FEMA operates a call center in conjunction with the FloodSmart
Web site (www.FloodSmart.gov). Together these methods of marketing and
outreach provide the mechanism for current and potential policyholders
to learn more about floods and flood insurance, contact an agent, or
assess their risk. The information collected from callers/visitors is
used to fulfill requests for published materials, email alerts, policy
rates, and agent contact information.
Additionally, FEMA and the NFIP offer Agents.FloodSmart.gov as a
resource for agents. Upon Web site registration, agents can enroll in
the Agent Referral Program to receive free leads through the consumer
site or the call center as outlined above. This information collection
seeks approval to continue collecting name, address and telephone
number information from: (1) Business and residential property owners
and renters who voluntarily call to request flood insurance information
and possibly an insurance agent referral and, (2) insurance agents
interested in enrolling in the agent referral service.
