Sec. 4.10  How does the Director make efforts to accommodate 

intergovernmental concerns?



    (a) If a state process provides a state process recommendation to 

FEMA through its single point of contact, the Director either:

    (1) Accepts the recommendation;

    (2) Reaches a mutually agreeable solution with the state process; or

    (3) Provides the single point of contact with such written 

explanation of the decision, as the Director in his or her discretion 

deems appropriate. The Director may also supplement the written 

explanation by providing the explanation to the single point of contact 

by telephone, other telecommunication, or other means.

    (b) In any explanation under paragraph (a)(3) of this section, the 

Director informs the single point of contact that:

    (1) FEMA will not implement its decision for at least ten days after 

the single point of contact receives the explanation; or

    (2) The Director has reviewed the decision and determined that, 

because of unusual circumstances, the waiting period of at least ten 

days is not feasible.

    (c) For purposes of computing the waiting period under paragraph 

(b)(1) of this section, a single point of contact is presumed to have 

received written notification 5 days after the date of mailing of such 

notification.
