AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department of Homeland 
Security (DHS).

ACTION: Correcting amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On July 20, 2020, FEMA published in the Federal Register a 
final rule revising the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) 
regulations to codify certain provisions of the Biggert-Waters Flood 
Insurance Reform Act of 2012 and the Homeowner Flood Insurance 
Affordability Act of 2014, and to clarify certain existing NFIP rules 
relating to NFIP operations and the Standard Flood Insurance Policy. 
This document provides corrections to information provided in a table.

DATES: This correction is effective November 9, 2021.

ADDRESSES: The docket for this rulemaking is available for inspection 
using the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https://www.regulations.gov and 
can be viewed by following that website's instructions.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kelly Bronowicz, Director, 
Policyholder Services Division, Federal Insurance and Mitigation 
Administration, Federal Emergency Management Agency, 400 C Street SW, 
Washington, DC 20472, (202) 557-9488.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 20, 2020, FEMA published in the 
Federal Register a final rule revising the National Flood Insurance 
Program (NFIP) regulations to codify certain provisions of the Biggert-
Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 and the Homeowner Flood 
Insurance Affordability Act of 2014, and to clarify certain existing 
NFIP rules relating to NFIP operations and the Standard Flood Insurance 
Policy. In 44 CFR 61.6(a), Table 1, ``Maximum Amounts of Coverage 
Available,'' contained two inadvertently placed asterisks next to 
``Non-Residential Building'' in the ``Building Coverage'' heading. The 
``**'' denotes that the maximum amount of coverage for Non-Residential 
Buildings in Alaska, Guam, and Hawaii is $150,000.00. However, the 
presence of ``**'' was an error, as 42 U.S.C. 4013 contains no such 
maximum. Accordingly, this correction removes the incorrectly-placed 
``**''.

List of Subjects in 44 CFR Part 61

    Flood insurance, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.

    For the reasons set forth above, 44 CFR part 61 is corrected by 
making the following correcting amendment:
