22 CFR Part 41 

[Public Notice 8517] 

RIN 1400–AD42 

Visas: Documentation of 

Nonimmigrants—Visa Classification; T 

Visa Class 

AGENCY: State Department. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule is being 

promulgated to add a new visa 

classification symbol to the 

nonimmigrant classification table in our 

regulations. This amendment is 

necessary to implement legislation that 

created an additional nonimmigrant 

classification as described herein. 

DATES: This rule is effective November 

18, 2013. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Lauren A. Prosnik, Legislation and 

Regulations Division, Visa Services, 

Department of State, 2401 E Street NW., 

Room L–603D, Washington, DC 20520– 

0106, (202) 663–1260. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Why is the Department promulgating 

this rule? 

Section 1221 of the Violence Against 

Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 

(Pub. L. 113–4) amended Section 

101(a)(15)(T)(ii)(III) of the Immigration 

and Nationality Act by adding a 

derivative ‘‘T’’ visa class. The T–6 visa 

would be available to eligible adult and 

minor children of a derivative 

beneficiary of a T–1 principal alien 

whom the Secretary of Homeland 

Security, in consultation with the law 

enforcement officer investigating a 

severe form of trafficking, determines 

faces a present danger of retaliation as 

a result of the alien’s escape from 

trafficking or cooperation with law 

enforcement to accompany or follow to 

join the principal alien. This rule 

amends 22 CFR 41.12 to include the T– 

6 visa classification in the chart of 

nonimmigrant visa classification 

symbols. 

Regulatory Findings 

Administrative Procedure Act 

This regulation involves a foreign 

affairs function of the United States and, 

therefore, in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 

553(a)(1), is not subject to the 

rulemaking procedures set forth at 5 

U.S.C. 553. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act/Executive 

Order 13272: Small Business 

Because this final 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 by the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 603 and 604). 

Nonetheless, consistent with the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 

605(b)), the Department certifies that 

this rule will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities, since it 

involves creating a nonimmigrant visa 

category for certain victims of 

trafficking. 

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 

Section 202 of the Unfunded 

Mandates Reform Act of 1995, 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. 

Small Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act of 1996 

This rule is not a major rule as 

defined by 5 U.S.C. 804. The 

Department is aware of no monetary 

effect on the economy that would result 

from this rulemaking, nor will there be 

any increase in costs or prices; or any 

effect on competition, employment, 

investment, productivity, innovation, or 

the ability of United States-based 

companies to compete with foreignbased companies in domestic and 

import markets. 

Executive Order 12866 

The Department of State has reviewed 

this rule to ensure its consistency with 

the regulatory philosophy and 

principles set forth in Executive Order 

12866, and has determined that the 

benefits of this regulation, i.e., 

complying with a Congressional 

mandate and providing a nonimmigrant 

visa category for certain victims of 

trafficking, outweigh any cost. The 

Department does not consider this rule 

to be a significant rulemaking action. 

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. The rule will not 

have federalism implications warranting 

the application of Executive Orders 

12372 and 13132. 

Executive Order 12988: Civil Justice 

Reform 

The Department has reviewed the 

regulation 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. 

Executive Order 13563: Improving 

Regulation and Regulatory Review 

The Department has considered this 

rule in light of Executive Order 13563, 

dated January 18, 2011, and affirms that 

this regulation is consistent with the 

guidance therein. 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

This rule does not impose information 

collection requirements under the 

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 

Act, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35 beyond what 

is already required of other 

nonimmigrant visa applicants. 

List of Subjects in 22 CFR Part 41 

Aliens, Foreign Officials, 

Immigration, Documentation of 

nonimmigrants, Passports and visas. 

For the reasons stated in the 

preamble, the Department of State 

amends 22 CFR Part 41 to read as 

follows: 

PART 41—VISAS: DOCUMENTATION 

OF NONIMMIGRANTS UNDER THE 

IMMIGRATION AND NATIONALITY 

ACT, AS AMENDED 

■ 1. The authority citation for Part 41 

continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 8 U.S.C. 1104; Pub. L. 105–277, 

112 Stat. 2681–795 through 2681–801; 8 

U.S.C. 1185 note (section 7209 of Pub. L. 

108–458, as amended by section 546 of Pub. 

L. 109–295). 

■ 2. Section 41.12 is revised to read as 

follows: 

§ 41.12 Classification symbols. 

A visa issued to a nonimmigrant alien 

within one of the classes described in 

this section shall bear an appropriate 

visa symbol to show the classification of 

the alien. The symbol shall be inserted 

in the space provided on the visa. The 

following visa symbols shall be used:

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(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. The Coast Guard received the 

information about the vessel removal 

project on 17 October, 2013, and the 

vessel removal project would occur 

before the rulemaking process would be 

completed. Because of the dangers 

posed by the cranes operating under 

heavy loads in close proximity to both
