FILED AGAINST RECIPIENTS OF FEDERAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE; RESCISSION OF 
LIMITATION ON PARTICIPATION OF THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

Legal Authority:  42 USC 2000d to 2000d-4; EO 12250

CFR Citation:  28 CFR 42; 29 CFR 1691

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rule-related notice will rescind a limitation placed on 
the participation of the Department of Education (ED) in the procedures 
prescribed by a joint rule of the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the 
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for processing 
complaints of employment discrimination filed against recipients of 
Federal financial assistance (the coordination regulation). 28 CFR part 
42, 29 CFR part 1691. The court's decision in Women's Equity Action 
League v. Cavazos, 906 F.2d 742 (D.C. Cir. 1990), had the effect of 
allowing ED to consider whether it is appropriate to refer joint 
complaints alleging a pattern or practice of employment discrimination 
or joint complaints of discrimination in employment and in other 
practices of the recipient to the EEOC in compliance with the joint DOJ 
and EEOC rule. This document will provide further public notice that ED 
may participate fully in the procedures established by the coordination 
regulation.

2223. UNFAIR IMMIGRATION-RELATED EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES

Legal Authority:  8 USC 1324b

CFR Citation:  28 CFR 44.100 to 44.305

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This section prohibits discrimination on the basis of 
national origin and citizenship status. The existing regulations 
implementing the antidiscrimination provisions of section 274B of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. 1324b, need to be modified to 
incorporate the Immigration Act of 1990 amendments. As currently 
written, portions of the existing regulations conflict with the amended 
statute. This conflict creates a significant problem in the enforcement 
and the comprehension of the antidiscrimination provisions. In 
addition, as the case law develops under this new statute, two issues 
have arisen. First, many issues have not been addressed or defined by 
the statute or regulations. Second, while it is possible for these 
issues to be decided on a case by case basis, the case law is not 
reported by any service. This has created a significant problem in the 
comprehension of the antidiscrimination provisions. The main objectives 
of this rulemaking will be to eliminate contradictions, to incorporate 
additions, to promote a better understanding of the antidiscrimination 
provisions, and to determine whether additional clarification of the

2225.  PROCEDURES FOR HANDLING COMPLAINTS OF EMPLOYMENT 
DISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF DISABILITY FILED UNDER THE AMERICANS WITH 
DISABILITIES ACT AND THE REHABILITATION ACT OF 1973

Legal Authority:  5 USC 301; 28 USC 509 and 510; 42 USC 12117(b); 29 
USC 794(d)

CFR Citation:  28 CFR 38 (New)

Legal Deadline:  Final, Statutory, January 26, 1992.

Abstract: This rule, which was jointly issued by the Department of 
Justice and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), 
established procedures for coordinating the processing of complaints or 
charges of employment discrimination that fall within the overlapping 
jurisdiction of section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act (Section 504) and 
title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). As 
directed by section 107(b) of the ADA, the rule is modeled on the 
existing rule used to process complaints of employment discrimination 
against recipients of Federal financial assistance that may also be 
subject to title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended. In 
order to reduce the number of sources agencies must consult to 
determine the disposition of the employment complaints they receive, 
the rule also restates the existing procedures established by the 
Department's title II ADA rule at 28 CFR 35.171(b)(2) and (b)(3) for 
coordinating the processing of certain complaints against public 
entities.

Legal Authority:  21 USC 802; 21 USC 830; 21 USC 871(b); 21 USC 971

CFR Citation:  21 CFR 1310; 21 CFR 1313

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rule would amend 21 CFR, parts 1310 and 1313, to require 
that persons importing or exporting regulated chemicals: report to DEA 
the actual date of importation or exportation and the actual amount of 
regulated chemicals imported or exported; establish a 60-day time limit 
on the validity of chemical import/export declarations; and clarify 
that the threshold levels for hydrochloric acid, anhydrous hydrochloric 
acid, and sulfuric acid apply to both exports and transshipments to 
designated countries. 21 U.S.C. 971 requires that persons provide DEA 
with notification of imports and exports of regulated chemicals at 
least 15 days in advance of the proposed transactions. Experience has 
shown that the actual date of import/export and amount of chemicals 
involved often vary significantly from the proposed date and amounts 
reported to DEA. The proposed changes will allow DEA to collect and 
maintain accurate information regarding regulated chemical imports/
exports.

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: In years past, most pharmaceutical manufacturers and 
wholesalers, as a service to their customers, accepted returns of 
outdated/damaged merchandise. Also, agencies such as DEA and state 
Boards of Pharmacy accepted surrendered drugs or witnessed their 
disposal by controlled substance registrants. Over the past several 
years, environmental concerns and regulations have eliminated many of 
the disposal options which had been available. As a result, drug 
producers and government agencies alike are increasingly reluctant to 
be involved in the disposal process. Due to these factors and the time 
and resources expended by DEA and manufacturers, a disposer 
registration has become an essential link in the legitimate 
distribution chain. Therefore, DEA will propose the establishment of a 
new category of controlled substance registrant as a disposer.

CFR Citation:  21 CFR 1309; 21 CFR 1310; 21 CFR 1313

Legal Deadline:  NPRM, Statutory, April 6, 1994.
Statutory deadline is 120 days from date of Presidential signature.

Abstract: This rule would implement the provisions of the Domestic 
Chemical Diversion Act of 1993, which was passed by Congress and signed 
by the President on December 17, 1993. The provisions amend the 
Chemical Diversion and Trafficking Act of 1988. The DCDCA grants DEA 
the authority to exercise more effective control over the manufacture, 
distribution, import, and export of List I chemicals. The DCDCA also 
removes the exemption granted to drug products which contain ephedrine, 
thus eliminating a previously unrestricted source of the chemical for 
clandestine laboratories which illicitly manufacture methamphetamine 
and methcathinone.

impact on small businesses. SBA is satisfied with DEA's proposal and 
has no objections to the new requirements.

2230. RECORDS AND REPORTS OF LISTED CHEMICALS AND CERTAIN MACHINES 
(ELIMINATION OF EPHEDRINE THRESHOLD)

Legal Authority:  21 USC 802; 21 USC 830; 21 USC 871(b)

CFR Citation:  21 CFR 1310

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rule would eliminate the threshold level for ephedrine 
for domestic distributions and import/export transactions. Under the 
Chemical Diversion and Trafficking Act (CDTA), DEA established 
threshold amounts for transactions involving the chemicals regulated by 
the CDTA. Domestic distributions and import/export transactions meeting 
or exceeding the established threshold levels are subject to specific 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements. The existing threshold would 
be eliminated for ephedrine since DEA has found that clandestine 
methamphetamine and methcathinone laboratories are utilizing processes 
which routinely use quantities of the chemicals well below the existing 
threshold. The change would deter the undocumented transfer of 
ephedrine to individuals who are illicitly producing methamphetamine 
and methcathinone.

CFR Citation:  21 CFR 1313

Abstract: This rule would require regulated persons to submit 
information on customers for specific chemicals shipped to certain 
countries along with the present reporting form required by DEA (DEA 
Form 486; OMB No. 1117-0023). The information is being required due to 
the extremely high risk of diversion of such chemicals within those 
countries where large quantities of illicit drugs are processed or 
manufactured.

2232. EXEMPTION OF AGENTS AND EMPLOYEES; AFFILIATED PRACTITIONERS

Legal Authority:  21 USC 822(d)

CFR Citation:  21 CFR 1301

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rule would revise the language under title 21, Code of 
Federal Regulations, section 1301.24 to clarify DEA's policy regarding 
the exemption of certain agents and employees of DEA registrants. The 
Administrator of DEA is granted the authority to waive the requirement 
of registration for certain manufacturers, distributors and dispensers 
for controlled substances pursuant to Section 302 of the Controlled 
Substances Act (21 U.S.C. Section 822(d)). There has been confusion on 
the part of dispensers regarding the exemptions allowed under section 
1301.24 with respect to practitioners who act as agents or employees of 
DEA registrants. The amended language would clarify the circumstances 
under which practitioners may administer, dispense and prescribe 
controlled substances as agents or employees of DEA registrants in lieu 
of being registered themselves.

registration of certain manufacturers of controlled substances. The 
current regulations require that DEA hold a hearing whenever such is 
requested by another applicant or registrant. The proposed change would 
provide for a hearing only when the Administrator determines that a 
hearing is necessary to receive factual evidence and/or expert 
testimony with respect to issues raised by the application or 
objections thereto.

Abstract: This rule provides procedures to the States to transmit to

The rule defines the term ``record of conviction,'' and will provide a 
means of certifying records that are electronically transmitted to the 
Service by the States.
The rule also provides the States flexibility by permitting the use of 
abstracts of criminal conviction records, if that option makes 
providing the needed records easier.
The rule will help the States meet the requirements of Section 507 of 
the Immigration Act of 1990, and will help the Service in expelling 
from the United States, aliens who have been convicted of violating 
criminal laws of this country.

CFR Citation:  8 CFR 237; 8 CFR 243

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rule streamlines the regulatory process for executing a 
final order of exclusion by sliding forward the 72-hour waiting period, 
which currently falls after the Service assumes custody of the alien 
pursuant to a notice to surrender or arrest, to the period immediately 
after service of the decision upon the alien, in conformity to the 
current deportation procedure. The rule also eliminates the subsequent 
step of obtaining the alien's specific consent or request to waive the 
72-hour period when the alien has already waived appeal of the 
Immigration Judge's exclusion or deportation order on the record of 
proceeding before the Immigration Judge. These revisions are necessary 
in order to eliminate unnecessary detention costs to the taxpayer and 
potential delays resulting from the current 72-hour provision.

2296.  ESTABLISHMENT OF FORM I-551 AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORMAT OF 
ALIEN REGISTRATION RECEIPT CARD AND CLARIFICATION OF FILING VENUE AND 
FEES FOR CERTAIN APPLICATIONS TO REPLACE RECEIPT CARDS

Legal Authority:  8 USC 1103; 8 USC 1201; 8 USC 1201a; 8 USC 1301; 8 
USC 1302; 8 USC 1303; 8 USC 1304; 8 USC 1305

CFR Citation:  8 CFR 264; 8 CFR 299

Legal Deadline:  NPRM, Judicial, December 1994.
8 CFR 264.1(b) and 299.1 are impacted by Espindola v. INS which is 
pending in the US District Court for the East. Dist. of Col.

Abstract: The Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) proposes 
to amend its regulations concerning applications for evidence of lawful 
permanent residence. The rule would remove Form I-151 Alien 
Registration Receipt Card, from the list of recognized registration 
documents. The rule would also clarify the filing venue for Form I-90, 
Application by a Lawful Permanent Resident for an Alien Registration 
Receipt Card, and also the circumstances in which that application 
would be exempted from the filing fee. The rule is necessary to 
complete a recent final rule which established the current Alien 
Registration Receipt Card, Form I-551, as the exclusive alien 
registration card for the use of permanent resident aliens, and to 
minimize confusion over certain aspects of filing for replacement alien 
registration cards.--INS 1671-94
The Service will also propose regulations which will delay the 
effective date of previously issued changes to Title 8 of the Code of 
Federal Regulations. The Alien Registration Receipt Card (Form I-151) 
was to become invalid as of 9-20-94, this rule would provide for an 
extension of that date through 3-20-95.--INS 1381X

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA) imposed 
sanctions against employers who hire aliens not authorized to work. 
Since many of the nation's agricultural employers have become dependent 
upon such workers to meet production and harvesting needs, Congress 
created the Special Agricultural Workers (SAW) Program and the 
Replenishment Agricultural Workers (RAW) Program to grant permanent 
resident status to certain agricultural workers. To clarify the process 
through which employers can employ nonimmigrant seasonal and temporary 
agricultural workers, Congress moved agricultural employment from H-2 
classification into a separate H-2A class, and incorporated a labor 
certification process into the statute. This rule established special 
H-2A regulatory criteria, and supplemented the Department of Labor's 
rules covering the temporary agricultural labor certification process. 
This rule has amended Service regulations which pertain to temporary 
alien workers seeking classification under section 101(a)(15)(H) of the 
Immigration and Nationality Act.

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rule codifies existing policy guidelines on the 
classification of nonimmigrant treaty aliens. The regulation is 
necessary to fulfill U.S. treaty obligations, avoid confusion and 
ensure uniform adjudication of applications, and to facilitate change 
of status and stay of business traders and investors.
The rule responds to the need for uniformity between the Immigration 
and Naturalization Service and the Department of State, which have dual 
jurisdiction over E treaty aliens. The rule will promote uniformity in 
adjudication between Service field officers and State consular 
officers, encourage trade and investment in the United States by 
citizens of countries with whom the United States has treaties, and 
stimulate continuing and prospective businesses and job opportunities 
beneficial to the United States economy. It will also ensure fair and 
consistent adjudication and enforcement by Service field offices 
throughout the United States and in the reviewing courts.

CFR Citation:  8 CFR 214; 8 CFR 214.2

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: These regulations implement provisions of the Immigration Act 
of 1990 (IMMACT), Pub. L. 101-649, as they relate to temporary alien 
workers seeking nonimmigrant classification and admission to the US 
under sections 101(a)(15)(H),(L),(O), and (P) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act (Act).
INS Regulation No. 1653 proposes to bring the H, O, and P 
Classification regulations into conformity with the employer sanctions 
provisions of Section 274a of the Act. It precludes foreign employers 
from filing petitions for O and P nonimmigrant aliens. Prospective 
foreign employers seeking to utilize these classifications will be 
required to employ the services of an established US agent in order to 
file a petition for an O or P nonimmigrant. The rule also would amend 
the H nonimmigrant regulations by requiring foreign employers seeking 
to petition for H-2B nonimmigrants to also utilize the services of an 
established US agent.
INS Regulation No. 1454 contains new filing procedures, eligibility 
standards, and clarifies the requirements for classification and 
admission for H-1B, O, and P nonimmigrants,

Abstract: This rule proposes to amend the regulations to allow the 
Immigration and Naturalization Service to require a fee for the 
issuance of specified documents at land border Ports-of-Entry (POEs). 
The imbalance between workload and resources available to land border 
operations has necessitated the implementation of appropriate solutions 
to supplement the available resources. The revenue generated by the 
collection of land border user fees will enable the Service to allocate 
additional resources to improve service to the public at land border 
POEs.

Abstract: This rule conveys changes in filing procedures for certain 
petitions or applications for immigration benefits under the direct

expeditious processing of applications and/or petitions. (INS 1660-94)
A pilot direct mail program was established in the Baltimore District 
Office for certain designated petitions and applications. (INS 1660N-

1186a; 8 USC 1187; 8 USC 1221; 8 USC 1282

CFR Citation:  8 CFR 214

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rule amends existing regulations concerning admission of 
certain nurses seeking nonimmigrant classification under the H-1A 
category. This rule is necessary due to a change in the method that the 
National Council of State Boards of Nursing uses to administer the 
permanent state licensure examination (NCLEX). With the change in 
testing procedures the rule will provide that nurses entering the US, 
on the basis of a temporary license issued by the state of intended 
employment, pass the NCLEX within 6 months after the date of their 
initial admission to the US.

Abstract: This proposed rule establishes an alternative procedure for 
filing proof of fee payment for appeals of Immigration Judge decisions 
to the Board of Immigration Appeals. It provides added flexibility in 
the appeal filing procedure by permitting a respondent/applicant to 
certify that a fee was forwarded to the Service. It further allows 
thirty (30) days from the date of filing the appeal for the respondent/
applicant to submit a fee receipt. It also provides that failure to 
present proof of payment of fee will cause the appeal to be deemed 
improperly filed.

CFR Citation:  8 CFR 3

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The Immigration Act of 1990 provides that an alien 
entrepreneur and his or her family may obtain lawful permanent 
residence on a conditional basis, subject to the requirements of a 
timely petition and interview for removal of the condition two years 
after obtaining such status. Termination of such status is made 
reviewable in deportation proceedings before an Immigration Judge. This 
proposed rule sets forth the procedures that an Immigration Judge will 
follow in reviewing the termination by the Immigration and 
Naturalization Service of conditional permanent resident status of 
alien entrepreneurs and their families.

CFR Citation:  8 CFR 3

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This proposed rule would require an Immigration Judge to 
enter an order of deportation or exclusion, without a hearing, if 
satisfied that the alien voluntarily entered into a plea-negotiated or 
otherwise stipulated request for an order of deportation or exclusion. 
It further codifies the well established practice of an Immigration 
Judge in conducting telephonic hearings in deportation, exclusion, or 
rescission cases, as well as codifying the authority of the Immigration 
Judge to hold video teleconferenced hearings.

2381. GAMBLING SHIP ACT ENFORCEMENT REVIEW PROCEDURE

Legal Authority:  5 USC 301

CFR Citation:  Not yet determined

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The planned rule would establish a procedure whereby 
operators of cruise ship lines could submit to the Department written 
proposals of cruise operations involving gambling, and obtain from the 
Department's Criminal Division a statement as to the Department's 
enforcement intentions with respect to the proposed conduct, based on 
the assumption that the submission contained a full and accurate 
statement of the company's planned activities. This procedure would 
address the concerns of cruise ship companies that are reluctant to 
undertake operations in an area that they perceive to be complex and 
with respect to which it may be considered difficult to predict the 
legality of the proposed conduct.
