Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 244 / Thursday, December 20, 2007 / Rules and Regulations
(c) Failure to file annual reports. A
sponsor fails to file annual reports for
two (2) consecutive years. Such sponsor
is eligible to apply for a new program
designation.
(d) Failure to file an annual
management audit. A sponsor fails to
file an annual management audit, if
such audits are required in the relevant
program category. Such sponsor is
eligible to apply for a new program
designation upon the filing of the past
due management audit.
(e) Change in ownership or control.
An exchange visitor program
designation is not assignable or
transferable. A major change in
ownership or control automatically
terminates the designation. However,
the successor sponsor may apply for
designation of the new entity, and it
may continue to administer the
exchange visitor activities of the
previously-designated program while
the application for designation is
pending before the Department of State:
(1) With respect to a for-profit
corporation, a major change in
ownership or control is deemed to have
occurred when one third (33.33%) or
more of its stock is sold or otherwise
transferred within a 12-month period;
(2) With respect to a not-for-profit
corporation, a major change of control is
deemed to have occurred when 51
percent (51%) or more of the board of
trustees or other like body, vested with
its management, is replaced within a 12month period.
(f) Non-compliance with other
requirements. A sponsor fails to remain
in compliance with Federal, State, local,
or professional requirements necessary
to carry out the activity for which it is
designated, including loss of
accreditation, or licensure.
(g) Failure to apply for redesignation.
A sponsor fails to apply for
redesignation, pursuant to the terms and
conditions of § 62.7, prior to the
conclusion of its current designation
period. If so terminated, the former
sponsor may apply for a new program
designation, but the program activity
will be suspended during the pendency
of the application.
yshivers on PROD1PC62 with RULES
§ 62.61
The Department may terminate a
sponsor’s program designation by
revocation for cause as specified in
§ 62.50. Such sponsor may not apply for
a new designation for five (5) years
following the effective date of the
revocation.
15:40 Dec 19, 2007
The Department may, in its sole
discretion, determine that a class of
designated programs compromises the
national security of the United States or
no longer furthers the public diplomacy
mission of the Department of State.
Upon such a determination, the Office
shall:
(a) Give all sponsors of such class of
designated programs not less than thirty
(30) days’ written notice of the
revocation of Exchange Visitor Program
designations for such programs,
specifying therein the grounds and
effective date for such revocations; or
(b) Give any sponsor of such class of
designated programs not less than thirty
(30) days’ written notice of its denial of
the sponsor’s application for
redesignation, specifying therein the
grounds for such denial and effective
date of such denial. Revocation of
designation or denial of redesignation
on the above-specified grounds for a
class of designated programs is the final
decision of the Department.
§ 62.63 Responsibilities of the sponsor
upon termination or revocation.
Upon termination or revocation of its
program designation, a sponsor must:
(a) Fulfill its responsibilities to all
exchange visitors who are in the United
States at the time of the termination or
revocation; and
(b) Notify exchange visitors who have
not entered the United States that the
program has been terminated or
revoked, unless a transfer to another
designated program can be obtained.

ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone on
the Cowlitz River, in the vicinity of
Cottonwood Island at the entrance of the
Cowlitz River extending up the Cowlitz
River 1.5 river miles. The Captain of the
Port, Portland, Oregon is taking this
action to safeguard individuals and
vessels from safety hazards associated
with dredging operations. Entry into
this safety zone is prohibited unless
authorized by Captain of the Port,
Portland or the Master of the on-scene
dredge vessel.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:
Regulatory Information
We did not publish a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this
regulation. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) and
5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds
that good cause exists for not publishing
an NPRM and for making this rule
effective less than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register. The
Coast Guard did not receive notice of
this operation until 12 days prior to the
beginning of the operation. The
dredging operation will involve
multiple dredges, floating and
submerged pipelines and other potential
navigation hazards from the west bank
of the Old Cowlitz River to the
northwest tip of Cottonwood Island and
1.5 river miles up the Cowlitz River
including the mouth of Carrols Channel
and the Old Mouth Cowlitz. The
pipeline and associated dredge gear will
pose a hazard to navigation due to its
location blocking the channel.
If normal notice and comment
procedures were followed, this rule
would not become effective until after
the dates of the event. For this reason,
following normal rulemaking
procedures in this case would be
impracticable and contrary to the public
interest.
Background and Purpose
The Coast Guard is establishing a
temporary safety zone regulation to
allow for safe dredging operations. This
operation is necessary for flood control
on the Cowlitz River. Silt has built up
at the lower end of the Cowlitz River
causing an increased risk of flooding in
the vicinity of Kelso, Longview, and
Castle Rock, WA. This safety zone will
be in effect during the time of Monday,
November 12, 2007 to Friday, February
29, 2008 while there is dredge gear in
the water. This safety zone will be
enforced by the Captain the Port,
