following nonexertional limitations generally do 

significantly erode an occupational base: Loss of 

bilateral manual dexterity (sedentary jobs); 

constriction of visual field (light and medium jobs); 

no stooping, and poor balance when standing or 

walking on uneven terrain. See SSR 96–9p: Policy 

Interpretation Ruling Titles II and XVI: Determining 

Capability To Do Other Work—Implications of a 

Residual Functional Capacity for Less Than a Full 

Range of Sedentary Work, at *5–6. SSR 83–14: 

Titles II and XVI: Capability To Do Other Work— 

The Medical-Vocational Rules as a Framework for 

Evaluating a Combination of Exertional and 

Nonexertional Impairments. SSR 83–10: Titles II 

and XVI: Determining Capability to do Other 

Work—The Medical-Vocational Rules of Appendix 

2 and SSR 83–12: Titles II and XVI: Capability to 

do Other Work—The Medical-Vocational Rules as 

a Framework For Evaluating Exertional Limitations 

Within a Range of Work or Between Ranges of Work 

also provide helpful adjudicative guidance on using 

the rules and the impact of nonexertional 

impairments on the exertional occupational base. 

occupational base is not significantly 

eroded by non-exertional limitations, 

the adjudicator may use the Grid rules 

as a framework, and VE testimony is not 

required. 

In Brock, the ALJ found that Brock 

retained the ability to perform unskilled 

work. Pursuant to SSR 85–15, the ALJ 

found Brock’s non-exertional limitations 

had little or no effect on the 

occupational base of medium exertional 

level unskilled work before applying the 

framework of Grid rule 203.25 to find 

Brock was not disabled. 

The Brock Court’s decision differs 

from our policy because it held that, 

because the ALJ found Brock had severe 

mental impairments, ‘‘the ALJ should 

have consulted a [VE] in determining 

whether Brock had the RFC to perform 

other jobs that exist in significant 

number in the national economy.’’ The 

holding requires the ALJ to consult a VE 

before denying a claim at step five of 

our sequential evaluation process when 

the claim involves an individual with a 

severe mental impairment(s), regardless 

of whether adjudicative guidance 

available in an SSR holds that the 

resulting nonexertional limitation(s) 

does not significantly erode the 

occupational base and application of the 

applicable Grid rule is appropriate. 

Explanation of How We Will Apply the 

Brock Decision Within the Circuit 

This Ruling applies only to claims in 

which the claimant resides in Arkansas, 

Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, 

North Dakota, and South Dakota at the 

time of the determinations or decision at 

the initial, reconsideration, and ALJ 

hearing levels. 

In making a disability determination 

or decision at step five of the sequential 

evaluation process (or the last step in 

the sequential evaluation process in 

continuing disability review claims), we 

will not rely exclusively on the Grid 

rules as a framework for decision 

making when an individual has a severe 

mental impairment(s). Before we deny a 

claim for disability benefits at step five 

(or the last step in the sequential 

evaluation process in continuing 

disability review claims) when a 

claimant has a severe mental 

impairment(s), we will produce VE 

evidence in claims at the hearing level. 

For claims decided at the initial and 

reconsideration levels, we will use 

evidence from a VS, the Dictionary of 

Occupational Titles (DOT), or another 

reliable source of job information, such 

as the ones listed in 20 CFR 404.1566(d) 

and 416.966(d). 

At the Appeals Council level, the 

Appeals Council will use this AR to 

determine whether it was correctly 

applied at the hearing level. However, 

when the Appeals Council exercises its 

authority to issue a corrective 

unfavorable decision, the Appeals 

Council may rely on vocational 

evidence adduced at the hearing.

proposals for the 2014 competition. 

Thus, we are extending the date for 

submitting early expressions of interest 

until September 2, 2014. Students are 

strongly encouraged to submit outlines

science and engineering. In its third 

year, the Secretary has decided to create 

two divisions within the award: a high 

school division and a university 

division (both undergraduate and 

graduate). The Secretary of 

Transportation intends to use the 

awards to incentivize students at high 

schools and universities to think 

creatively in developing innovative 

solutions to aviation and aerospace
