       (1) In general.--An order of suspension issued under

     2021), shall be lifted not earlier than 60 days after the 
     date on which the Surgeon General provides written

     committees of Congress that such public health emergency 
     declaration (including the continuation described in 
     Proclamation 9994 on February 24, 2021) have been terminated.
       (2) Procedures during 60-day termination window.--

     government, or nongovernmental organization that has a role 
     in managing outcomes associated with the suspension, as 
     determined by the Surgeon General (or the designee of the 
     Surgeon General), shall develop and submit to the appropriate 
     committees of Congress, a plan to address any possible influx 
     of entries or imports, as defined in such order of 
     suspension, related to the termination of such order.
