22 CFR Part 42 

[Public Notice: 8755] 

RIN 1400–AD52

Under the Immigration and Nationality 

Act, as Amended 

AGENCY: Department of State. 

ACTION: Final rule.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Taylor W. Beaumont, Department of 

State, Bureau of Consular Affairs, Office 

of Visa Services, Legal Affairs, Division 

of Legislation and Regulations, 600 19th 

Street NW., Washington, DC 20431, 

email (BeaumontTW@state.gov). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

816 of the Violence Against Women and 

Department of Justice Reauthorization 

Act of 2005, Title VIII of Public Law 

109–162, codified at 8 U.S.C. 

1154(a)(1)(A)(vii), created an immigrant 

visa classification for the parents of U.S. 

citizens, and the parents of former U.S. 

citizens who, within the past two years, 

have lost or renounced U.S. citizenship 

status related to an incident of domestic 

violence or died. 

The Department currently identifies 

applicants for this status using the 

‘‘IB5’’ symbol, an existing symbol used 

for parents of U.S. citizens who are at 

least 21 years old. The unique IB5 

classification symbol will facilitate the 

Department’s ability to identify 

applicants for such status in various 

immigrant visa information databases. 

Regulatory Findings 

A. Administrative Procedure Act 

Since this rule concerns the 

administration of visas, which is a 

foreign affairs function of the United 

States, the Department publishes this 

rule as a final rule pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 

553(a)(1). In addition, since this rule 

implements the provisions of the 

Violence Against Women and 

Department of Justice Reauthorization 

Act of 2005, the Department finds that 

notice and public comment on this rule 

are unnecessary, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 

553(b)(B). Accordingly, this rule is 

effective immediately. 

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act/Executive 

Order 13272: Small Business 

Because this rule is exempt from 

notice and comment rulemaking under 

5 U.S.C. 553, it is exempt from the 

regulatory flexibility analysis 

requirements set forth at sections 603 

and 604 of the Regulatory Flexibility 

Act (5 U.S.C. 603 and 604). Nonetheless, 

consistent with section 605(b) of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 

605(b)), the Department has reviewed 

this regulation and certifies that this 

rule will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. 

C. The Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 

Section 202 of the Unfunded 

Mandates Reform Act of 1995, Public 

Law 104–4, 109 Stat. 48, 2 U.S.C. 1532, 

generally requires agencies to prepare a 

statement before proposing any rule that 

may result in an annual expenditure of 

$100 million or more by State, local, or 

tribal governments, or by the private 

sector. This rule will not result in any 

such expenditure, nor will it 

significantly or uniquely affect small 

governments. 

D. The Small Business Regulatory 

Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 

This rule is not a major rule as 

defined by 5 U.S.C. 804, for purposes of 

congressional review of agency 

rulemaking under the Small Business 

Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 

1996, Public Law 104–121. This rule 

would not result in an annual effect on 

the economy of $100 million or more; a 

major increase in costs or prices; or 

significant adverse effects on 

competition, employment, investment, 

productivity, innovation, or on the 

ability of United States-based 

companies to compete with foreignbased companies in domestic and 

export markets. 

E. Executive Order 12866 

The Department does not consider 

this rule to be a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ within the scope of section 3(f) 

of Executive Order 12866. Nonetheless, 

the Department has reviewed the rule to 

ensure its consistency with the 

regulatory philosophy and principles set 

forth in the Executive Order. 

F. Executive Order 13563 

The Department of State has 

considered this rule in light of 

Executive Order 13563 and affirms that 

this regulation is consistent with the 

guidance therein. 

G. Executive Orders 12372 and 13132: 

Federalism 

This regulation will not have 

substantial direct effects on the states, 

on the relationship between the national 

government and the states, or the 

distribution of power and 

responsibilities among the various 

levels of government. Nor will the rule 

have federalism implications warranting 

the application of Executive Orders 

12372 and 13132. 

H. Executive Order 12988: Civil Justice 

Reform 

The Department has reviewed the 

regulations in light of sections 3(a) and 

3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988 to 

eliminate ambiguity, minimize 

litigation, establish clear legal 

standards, and reduce burden. 

I. Executive Order 13175 

The Department of State has 

determined that this rulemaking will 

not have tribal implications, will not 

impose substantial direct compliance 

costs on Indian tribal governments, and 

will not pre-empt tribal law. 

Accordingly, the requirements of 

Executive Order 13175 do not apply to 

this rulemaking.

[Docket Number USCG–2014–0231] 

RIN 1625–AA00 

Safety Zone; Monongahela River;

establishing a temporary safety zone on

mile 68.8. This safety zone is needed to 

protect vessels transiting the area and 

event spectators from the hazards 

associated with the Rices Landing 

Riverfest Fireworks Display. Entry into 

this zone is prohibited unless 

specifically authorized by the Captain of 

the Port Pittsburgh or a designated 

representative.

NPRM Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 

A. Regulatory History and Information 

The Coast Guard is issuing this 

temporary final rule without prior 

notice and opportunity to comment 

pursuant to authority under section 4(a) 

of the Administrative Procedure Act 

(APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision 

authorizes an agency to issue a rule 

without prior notice and opportunity to 

comment when the agency for good 

cause finds that those procedures are 

‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary 

to the public interest.’’ 

Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Coast 

Guard finds that good cause exists for 

not using the NPRM process. The Coast 

Guard received notice on March 27, 

2014 that this display would take place. 

After full review of the event 

information and location, the Coast 

Guard determined that a safety zone is 

necessary. Delaying this rule by 

completing the full NPRM process 

would unnecessarily delay the safety 

zone and be contrary to public interest 

because the safety zone is needed to 

protect transiting vessels, spectators, 

and the personnel involved in the 

display from the hazards associated 

with fireworks displays taking place 

near and over the waterway. The 

fireworks display has been advertised 

and the local community has prepared 

for the event. Completing the full NPRM 

process could also unnecessarily delay 

the planned event and possibly interfere 

with contractual obligations. 

For the same reasons, under 5 U.S.C. 

553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that 

good cause exists for making this rule 

effective less than 30 days after 

publication in the Federal Register. 

Delaying this rule by providing a full 30 

days notice would be contrary to public 

interest because immediate action is 

needed to protect persons and property 

in the area during the land-based 

fireworks display. 

B. Basis and Purpose 

On June 13, 2014, as a part of the 

Rices Landing Riverfest Fireworks 

Display, the Rices Landing Volunteer 

Fire Department will sponsor a landbased fireworks display. The display 

will take place in the vicinity of Old
