44 CFR 63.13 : Emergency Management And Assistance (Part 0 To Parts 403-499) — (Part 0 To Parts 403-499) — Federal Emergency Management Agency, Department Of Homeland Security (Part 0 To Parts 363-399) — Insurance And Hazard Mitigation (Parts 50-54 To Parts 81-149) — Implementation Of Section 1306(C) Of The National Flood Insurance Act Of 1968 (§ 63.1 To § 63.18) — State Certification Of Structures Subject To Imminent Collapse (§ 63.13 To § 63.18) — Purpose of subpart.

The purpose of this subpart is to establish criteria under the provisions of section 1306(c) of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, by which States can obtain approval from the Federal Insurance Administrator to certify that structures are subject to imminent collapse or subsidence as a result of erosion or undermining caused by waves or currents of water exceeding anticipated cyclical levels. The subpart also sets forth the procedures and data requirements to be utilized by those States in certifying structures as subject to imminent collapse. The State certification procedure represents an option to the use of the procedure whereby a structure is condemned by a State or local authority as a prerequisite to consideration for imminent collapse insurance benefits.
