01-31699 Airworthiness Directives; Rolls-Royce, plc RB211 Trent 800 Series Turbofan Engines Rule This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Rolls-Royce, plc RB211 Trent 800 series turbofan engines. That AD currently requires initial and repetitive ultrasonic inspections of low pressure compressor (LPC) fan blade roots for cracks, and replacement, if necessary, with serviceable parts. This amendment requires initial inspections at modified thresholds and repetitive inspections at reduced intervals from the current AD using new LPC fan blade inspection criteria, and requires renewal of dry film lubricant on removed blades. This amendment is prompted by reports that an in-service engine experienced LPC fan blade root cracking at a lower life than previously forecast, and, the manufacturer's further investigation that has led to a better understanding of the causes of fan blade root cracking. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent LPC fan blade failure due to cracking, which could result in multiple fan blade release, uncontained engine failure, and possible damage to the airplane. 2001-12-31 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/31/01-31699/airworthiness-directives-rolls-royce-plc-rb211-trent-800-series-turbofan-engines https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-31/pdf/01-31699.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 This amendment supersedes an existing airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to Rolls-Royce, plc RB211 Trent 800 series turbofan engines.

01-32051 Trust Management Reform: Probate of Indian Trust Estates Rule The Department of the Interior, Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA), is revising its regulations regarding hearings and appeals involving the probate of property and funds held in trust or restricted status for individual Indians and Alaska Natives. The revisions make OHA's probate regulations consistent with those published on January 22, 2001, by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) to accommodate BIA's re-assumption of responsibility for some probate cases. OHA's revisions will ensure that BIA and OHA apply the same standards and criteria for determining heirs and paying claims, and that they coordinate their procedures to expedite the probate process for Indian decedents' estates. This final rule reflects comments OHA received on the interim rule it published on June 18, 2001. 2001-12-31 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/31/01-32051/trust-management-reform-probate-of-indian-trust-estates https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-31/pdf/01-32051.pdf Interior Department; Hearings and Appeals Office, Interior Department 253,223 The Department of the Interior, Office of Hearings and Appeals (OHA), is revising its regulations regarding hearings and appeals involving the probate of property and funds held in trust or restricted status for individual Indians and Alaska Natives....
01-32068 Amendment to Rules Governing Off-the-Record Communications; Final Rule Rule The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) is revising its regulations governing off-the-record communications.

01-32086 Sunscreen Drug Products for Over-the-Counter Human Use; Final Monograph; Partial Stay; Final Rule Rule The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is staying the final monograph for over-the-counter (OTC) sunscreen drug products that published in the Federal Register of May 21, 1999 (64 FR 27666). The final monograph established conditions under which OTC sunscreen drug products are generally recognized as safe and effective and not misbranded. This stay of effective date applies to all OTC sunscreen drug products that would be regulated under part 352 (21 CFR part 352). This action does not stay the effective date for products that would be regulated under parts 310 and 700 (21 CFR parts 310 and 700). This action is being taken because the agency will be amending part 352 to address formulation, labeling, and testing requirements for both ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation protection and ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation protection. This action is part of FDA's ongoing review of OTC drug products. 2001-12-31 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/31/01-32086/sunscreen-drug-products-for-over-the-counter-human-use-final-monograph-partial-stay-final-rule https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-31/pdf/01-32086.pdf Health and Human Services Department; Food and Drug Administration 221,199 The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is staying the final monograph for over-the-counter (OTC) sunscreen drug products that published in the Federal Register of May 21, 1999 (64 FR 27666).

These rates were announced in a November 30, 2001 final rule (66 FR 59856).

01-32105 Clethodim; Pesticide Tolerances for Emergency Exemptions Rule This regulation establishes time-limited tolerances for combined residues of clethodim and its metabolites and their sulphoxides and sulphones in or on tall fescue forage and tall fescue hay. This action is in response to EPA's granting of an emergency exemption under section 18 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act authorizing use of the pesticide on tall fescue. This regulation establishes a maximum permissible level for residues of clethodim in these food commodities. The tolerances will expire and are revoked on June 30, 2004. 2001-12-31 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/31/01-32105/clethodim-pesticide-tolerances-for-emergency-exemptions https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-31/pdf/01-32105.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 This regulation establishes time-limited tolerances for combined residues of clethodim and its metabolites and their sulphoxides and sulphones in or on tall fescue forage and tall fescue hay.

01-32119 Security Zone: Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant, Seabrook, New Hampshire Rule The Coast Guard is establishing a temporary security zone around the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant in Seabrook, New Hampshire.

01-32173 Parts and Accessories Necessary for Safe Operation; Manufactured Home Tires Rule The FMCSA is amending its tire regulation to reflect the expiration of a provision allowing the overloading of tires used for the transportation of manufactured homes. The agency is also denying petitions from the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI) for rulemaking and for an extension of the expiration date of the overloading provision, and from Multinational Legal Services, PLLC (Multinational Legal Services), for rescission of an earlier extension of the expiration date. Currently, tires used in the transportation of manufactured homes may be loaded up to 18 percent over the load rating marked on the sidewall of the tires, or in the absence of such a marking, 18 percent above the load rating specified in publications of certain organizations specializing in tires. The rule was scheduled to expire--thus prohibiting tire overloading--on November 21, 2000, unless extended by joint agreement of FMCSA and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The expiration date was delayed until December 31, 2001, to give the agency enough time to complete its review of the MHI's petition to allow 18-percent overloading on a permanent basis. Denial of all petitions means motor carriers are prohibited from transporting manufactured homes built on or after January 1, 2002, in interstate commerce on overloaded tires. 2001-12-31 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/31/01-32173/parts-and-accessories-necessary-for-safe-operation-manufactured-home-tires https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-31/pdf/01-32173.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration 492,181 The FMCSA is amending its tire regulation to reflect the expiration of a provision allowing the overloading of tires used for the transportation of manufactured homes.

01-32254 Imposition and Collection of Passenger Civil Aviation Security Service Fees Rule The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announces the imposition of a security service fee in the amount of $2.50 per enplanement on passengers of domestic and foreign air carriers in air transportation, foreign air transportation, and intrastate air transportation originating at airports in the United States. Passengers will not be charged for more than two enplanements per one-way trip or four enplanements per round trip. The security service fee will apply to passengers using frequent flyer awards for air transportation, but may not be imposed on other nonrevenue passengers. Direct air carriers and foreign air carriers must collect the security service fees on air transportation sold on or after February 1, 2002. The direct air carriers and foreign air carriers must remit the fees imposed during each month to TSA by the last calendar day of the following month. 2001-12-31 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/31/01-32254/imposition-and-collection-of-passenger-civil-aviation-security-service-fees https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-31/pdf/01-32254.pdf Transportation Department; Transportation Security Administration 492,494 The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announces the imposition of a security service fee in the amount of $2.50 per enplanement on passengers of domestic and foreign air carriers in air transportation, foreign air transportation, and...
01-31328 Airworthiness Directives; Hamilton Sundstrand Model 247F Propellers Rule This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Hamilton Sundstrand model 247F propellers. This action requires a one-time rework of certain model 247F propellers by removing all four propeller blades from service, replacing those blades with serviceable propeller blades, and marking the propeller with a new part number. This amendment is prompted by nine reports of the blades partially slipping at the bond joint between the blade tulip and the composite blade airfoil interface. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent the loss of a propeller blade, which may result in loss of airplane control. 2001-12-28 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/28/01-31328/airworthiness-directives-hamilton-sundstrand-model-247f-propellers https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-28/pdf/01-31328.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to certain Hamilton Sundstrand model 247F propellers.

01-31798 Criteria for Classification of Solid Waste Disposal Facilities and Practices and Criteria for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills: Disposal of Residential Lead-Based Paint Waste Rule Because EPA received an adverse comment, we are withdrawing the direct final rule for Criteria for Classification of Solid Waste Disposal Facilities and Practices and Criteria for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills: Disposal of Residential Lead-Based Paint Waste. We published the direct final rule on October 23, 2001 (66 FR 53535) to expressly allow residential lead-based paint waste to be disposed of in construction and demolition landfills in addition to municipal solid waste landfill units. We stated in the direct final rule that if we received any adverse comments by November 23, 2001, we would publish a timely notice of withdrawal in the Federal Register. We subsequently received an adverse comment on the direct final rule.

01-31897 Supplemental Security Income; Disclosure of Information to Consumer Reporting Agencies and Overpayment Recovery Through Administrative Offset Against Federal Payments Rule We are modifying our regulations dealing with the recovery of supplemental security income (SSI) overpayments made under title XVI of the Social Security Act (the Act). The modifications reflect statutory authority for the Social Security Administration (SSA) to selectively refer information about SSI overpayments to consumer reporting agencies and to recover SSI overpayments through administrative offset by the Department of the Treasury against other Federal payments to which the overpaid individual may be entitled. These collection practices would be limited to overpayments made to a person after he or she attained age 18 that are determined to be otherwise unrecoverable under section 1631(b) of the Act after the individual ceases to be a beneficiary under title XVI of the Act. 2001-12-28 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/28/01-31897/supplemental-security-income-disclosure-of-information-to-consumer-reporting-agencies-and https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-28/pdf/01-31897.pdf Social Security Administration 470 We are modifying our regulations dealing with the recovery of supplemental security income (SSI) overpayments made under title XVI of the Social Security Act (the Act).

01-31935 Regulation of Fuels and Fuel Additives: Modifications to Standards and Requirements for Reformulated and Conventional Gasoline Rule With today's action EPA is finalizing certain proposed modifications to the reformulated gasoline (RFG) and conventional gasoline regulations. Through the 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act (CAA), Congress directed EPA to publish rules requiring that gasoline sold in certain areas be reformulated to reduce vehicle emissions of toxic and ozone-forming compounds. Congress also directed EPA to establish rules setting anti-dumping standards for non-reformulated, or "conventional" gasoline. EPA published rules for the certification and enforcement of RFG and provisions for conventional gasoline on February 16, 1994 at 59 FR 7716. Based on experience gained since the promulgation of these regulations, on July 11, 1997, we proposed a variety of revisions to the regulations relating to emissions standards, emissions models, compliance-related requirements and enforcement provisions. In a final rule published on December 31, 1997, we took final action on several of the proposed revisions. Today's action finalizes certain other of the proposed revisions. The revisions in this final rule involve both RFG and conventional gasoline. This rule finalizes procedures for combining finished gasoline with other products to produce new blends of gasoline. These procedures allow refiners to use conventional gasoline to produce RFG, and to reclassify RFG with regard to VOC classification, activities which were previously prohibited under the regulations. This rule also identifies procedures and requirements regarding the change of service of gasoline storage tanks. The emissions benefits achieved from the RFG and conventional gasoline programs will not be reduced as a result of this final rule. On May 17, 2001 the National Energy Policy Development Group (NEPD) recommended that EPA "study opportunities to maintain or improve the environmental benefits of state and local `boutique' clean fuel programs while exploring ways to increase the flexibility of the fuels distribution infrastructure, improve fungibility, and provide added mark… 2001-12-28 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/28/01-31935/regulation-of-fuels-and-fuel-additives-modifications-to-standards-and-requirements-for-reformulated https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-28/pdf/01-31935.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 With today's action EPA is finalizing certain proposed modifications to the reformulated gasoline (RFG) and conventional gasoline regulations.

01-31305 Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Listing the Tumbling Creek Cavesnail as Endangered Rule We, the Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), exercise our authority to emergency list the Tumbling Creek cavesnail (Antrobia culveri) as endangered under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). This species is known to occur in one cave in Missouri. The distribution of this species has decreased in Tumbling Creek by 90 percent since 1974. Although cavesnail numbers fluctuated seasonally and annually between 1996 and 2000, the species was not found in the monitored section of the cave stream during five surveys in 2001. Because the sudden population decline demonstrates a significant and imminent risk to the well-being of the Tumbling Creek cavesnail, we find that emergency listing is necessary to provide Federal protection pursuant to the Act for 240 days. A proposed rule to list the Tumbling Creek cavesnail as endangered is published concurrently with this emergency rule, and can be found in this issue of the Federal Register in the proposed rules section. 2001-12-27 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/27/01-31305/endangered-and-threatened-wildlife-and-plants-listing-the-tumbling-creek-cavesnail-as-endangered https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-27/pdf/01-31305.pdf Interior Department; Fish and Wildlife Service 253,197 We, the Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), exercise our authority to emergency list the Tumbling Creek cavesnail (Antrobia culveri) as endangered under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act).

01-31570 Unsecured Credit Limits for Federal Home Loan Banks Rule The Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) is amending the unsecured credit provision of its rules, which was adopted as part of its capital rule on December 20, 2000 and governs the amount of unsecured credit that a Federal Home Loan Bank (Bank) can extend to a particular counterparty. The unsecured credit limits adopted in December were generally stricter than the limits under which the Banks operated with the Finance Board's Financial Management Policy (FMP). The amendments adopted herein will require the Banks to base the credit limit on the long-term credit rating of the counterparty. They also will set the amount of unsecured credit that a Bank can extend to a government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) at the level allowed under the FMP, and adjust the limits for sales of overnight federal funds and the limits for unsecured credit that can be extended to groups of affiliated counterparties. The amendments also address how the unsecured credit limits should be applied to certain housing finance agency bonds, and clarify how a Bank should calculate its credit exposures from on- and off-balance sheet items and derivative contracts. The Finance Board also is adding to Sec. 932.9 a requirement that a Bank report promptly non-compliance with the unsecured credit limits set forth in the rule as well as making other technical or clarifying changes to the rule. 2001-12-27 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/27/01-31570/unsecured-credit-limits-for-federal-home-loan-banks https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-27/pdf/01-31570.pdf Federal Housing Finance Board 175 The Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) is amending the unsecured credit provision of its rules, which was adopted as part of its capital rule on December 20, 2000 and governs the amount of unsecured credit that a Federal Home Loan Bank...

01-31483 Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans and Designation of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; State of Louisiana; Redesignation of Lafourche Parish Ozone Nonattainment Area to Attainment for Ozone Rule EPA is taking direct final action on redesignation of Lafourche Parish from nonattainment to attainment for the 1-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). This determination is based on three years of complete, quality-assured, ambient air monitoring data for the 1997 to 1999 ozone seasons that demonstrate that the ozone NAAQS has been attained in the area. On August 9, 2000 the State of Louisiana submitted a request to redesignate the ozone nonattainment area of Lafourche Parish to attainment. Under the Clean Air Act (CAA), nonattainment areas may be redesignated to attainment if sufficient data are available to warrant the redesignation and the area meets the other CAA redesignation requirements. In this action, EPA will, unless adverse or critical comment is received, approve Louisiana's request for designation of Lafourche Parish because the request meets the requirements of the CAA. 2001-12-26 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/26/01-31483/approval-and-promulgation-of-implementation-plans-and-designation-of-areas-for-air-quality-planning https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-26/pdf/01-31483.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 EPA is taking direct final action on redesignation of Lafourche Parish from nonattainment to attainment for the 1-hour ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS).

01-31485 Approval of Section 112(l) Authority for Hazardous Air Pollutants; District of Columbia; Department of Health Rule EPA is taking direct final action to approve the District of Columbia (the District) Department of Health's (DoH's) request for delegation of authority to implement and enforce its hazardous air pollutant general provisions and hazardous air pollutant emission standards for perchloroethylene dry cleaning facilities, hard and decorative chromium electroplating and chromium anodizing tanks, halogenated solvent cleaning, and publicly owned treatment works, as well as the test methods, which have been adopted by reference from the Federal requirements set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This approval will automatically delegate future amendments to these regulations once the District incorporates those amendments into its regulations. In addition, EPA is taking direct final action to approve the District's mechanism for receiving delegation of future hazardous air pollutant regulations. This mechanism entails DoH's incorporation by reference of the Federal standard (unchanged), into its hazardous air pollutant regulation, DoH's notification to EPA of such incorporation, and DoH's submission of a delegation request letter to EPA following EPA notification of a new Federal requirement. EPA is not waiving its notification and reporting requirements, therefore, sources will need to send notifications and reports to both DoH and EPA. This action pertains to affected sources, as defined by the Clean Air Act's (CAA or the Act) hazardous air pollutant program. EPA is taking this action in accordance with the Act. 2001-12-26 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/26/01-31485/approval-of-section-112l-authority-for-hazardous-air-pollutants-district-of-columbia-department-of https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-26/pdf/01-31485.pdf Environmental Protection Agency 145 EPA is taking direct final action to approve the District of Columbia (the District) Department of Health's (DoH's) request for delegation of authority to implement and enforce its hazardous air pollutant general provisions and hazardous air pollutant...

01-31102 Airworthiness Directives; Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. Models PC-12 and PC-12/45 Airplanes Rule This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that supersedes Airworthiness Directive (AD) 99-19-32, which applies to certain Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. (Pilatus) Models PC-12 and PC-12/45 airplanes. AD 99-19-32 currently requires you to inspect the flap actuator internal gear system for correct end-play and backlash measurements and accomplish any corrective adjustments, as necessary. Pilatus has identified modifications for the flap system and designed and manufactured a new flap control and warning unit (FCWU) that permits the flap power drive-unit circuit breaker to close during flight. This AD requires you to modify the flap control wiring and install a flap power drive-unit field control panel. The actions specified by this AD are intended to allow the flap power drive-unit circuit breaker to close during flight and prevent current surges in the flap control system. If the pilot cannot close the circuit breaker during flight, the flight control and warning unit (FCWU) would not sense a worn actuator. Current surges in the flap control system could decrease the electrical life of the flap power drive-unit motor contactor. Both conditions have the potential for flap system failure with consequent reduced or loss of control of the airplane. 2001-12-21 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/21/01-31102/airworthiness-directives-pilatus-aircraft-ltd-models-pc-12-and-pc-1245-airplanes https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-21/pdf/01-31102.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that supersedes Airworthiness Directive (AD) 99-19-32, which applies to certain Pilatus Aircraft Ltd.

01-31326 Airworthiness Directives; CFE Company Model CFE738-1-1B Turbofan Engines Rule This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to CFE Company model CFE738-1-1B turbofan engines. This action requires the removal of certain fan rotor disks from service. This amendment is prompted by a report from a forging manufacturer, of a metallurgical inclusion (contaminant) found in a forging made from a certain ingot of titanium. Fan rotor disks for model CFE738-1-1B engines have been manufactured from this same ingot and are suspect for metallurgical inclusions. The actions specified in this AD are intended to remove from service affected fan rotor disks, which if not removed, could result in uncontained engine failure and damage to the airplane. 2001-12-21 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/21/01-31326/airworthiness-directives-cfe-company-model-cfe738-1-1b-turbofan-engines https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-21/pdf/01-31326.pdf Transportation Department; Federal Aviation Administration 492,159 This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that is applicable to CFE Company model CFE738-1-1B turbofan engines.

01-31400 Child-Resistant Packaging for Certain Over-the-Counter Drug Products; Correction Rule The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) corrects the rule published in the Federal Register of August 2, 2001 that requires child-resistant (CR) packaging of certain previously prescription-only oral drug products approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for over-the-counter (OTC) sale. Drug products that are the subject of the August 2 rule are members of the category known as "OTC switched drug products." The Commission intended that the August 2 rule apply to an oral drug product that is granted OTC status as the result of an application to switch the product from prescription to OTC status (an OTC switch application) submitted to the FDA on or after the January 29, 2002 effective date of the CPSC rule, except in the following circumstances. The rule was not intended to cover a drug product that contains only active ingredients covered by prior OTC switch applications submitted by the same or any other applicant before the effective date of the CPSC rule. Since publication of the August 2 rule, the Commission has become aware that a correction is necessary to avoid confusion over this point and is thus issuing a clarifying amendment. 2001-12-21 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/21/01-31400/child-resistant-packaging-for-certain-over-the-counter-drug-products-correction https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-21/pdf/01-31400.pdf Consumer Product Safety Commission 84 The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) corrects the rule published in the Federal Register of August 2, 2001 that requires child-resistant (CR) packaging of certain previously prescription-only oral drug products approved by the...

01-31452 Adjustment of Certain Fees of the Immigration Examinations Fee Account Rule This rule adjusts the fee schedule of the Immigration Examinations Fee Account (IEFA) for certain immigration and naturalization applications and petitions, as well as the fee for the fingerprinting of applicants who apply for certain immigration and naturalization benefits. Fees collected from persons filing these applications and petitions are deposited into the IEFA and used to fund the full cost of processing immigration and naturalization applications and petitions and associated support benefits; the full cost of providing similar benefits to asylum and refugee applicants; and the full cost of similar benefits provided to other immigrants, as specified in the regulation, at no charge. This rule ensures that the fees will allow the Immigration and Naturalization Service (Service) to process applications and petitions that it expects to receive in fiscal year (FY) 2002 and FY 2003 and to provide funding to other programs that receive IEFA funds. 2001-12-21 2001 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/12/21/01-31452/adjustment-of-certain-fees-of-the-immigration-examinations-fee-account https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-12-21/pdf/01-31452.pdf Justice Department; Immigration and Naturalization Service 268,232 This rule adjusts the fee schedule of the Immigration Examinations Fee Account (IEFA) for certain immigration and naturalization applications and petitions, as well as the fee for the fingerprinting of applicants who apply for certain immigration and...
