This technical amendment delays the implementation date of the Guam-CNMI Visa Waiver Program from June 1, 2009 to November 28, 2009. The interim final rule implementing the Guam-CNMI Visa Waiver Program provided analysis addressing DHS's statutory and regulatory requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Flexibility Act, Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995, Executive Order 13132, Executive Order 12988, Paperwork Reduction Act, and the Privacy Act. That analysis is adopted and incorporated herein by reference. As indicated in the interim final rule, pursuant to § 702(b) of the CNRA, the implementation of the Guam-CNMI Visa Waiver Program is considered a foreign affairs function for purposes of section 553(a) of the APA. Accordingly, this technical amendment to the interim final rule is statutorily exempt from the requirements of the APA.
