Just to clarify that 49.51 kcal/(mol*Rad^2) is based on the Seminario method.
While based on the Z-matrix method the value is 55.84 kcal/(mol*Rad^2).

All of these values are based on the Hessian matrix obtained from an
optimized single water molecule structure based on the B3LYP/6-31G* level
of theory with Integral=(Grid=UltraFine) in G09.
