Office of the Director, National
Institutes of Health; Notice of Meeting
Pursuant to section 10(a) of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, as
amended (5 U.S.C. App.), notice is
hereby given of a meeting of the NIH
Scientific Management Review Board
(SMRB). Presentations and discussions
will address programs and activities to
engage pre-college students in
biomedical science.
The NIH Reform Act of 2006 (Pub. L.
109–482) provides organizational
authorities to HHS and NIH officials to:
(1) Establish or abolish national research
institutes; (2) reorganize the offices
within the Office of the Director, NIH
including adding, removing, or
transferring the functions of such offices
or establishing or terminating such
offices; and (3) reorganize, divisions,
centers, or other administrative units
within an NIH national research
institute or national center including
adding, removing, or transferring the
functions of such units, or establishing
or terminating such units. The purpose
of the SMRB is to advise appropriate
HHS and NIH officials on the use of
these organizational authorities and
identify the reasons underlying the
recommendations.
The meeting will be open to the
public, with attendance limited to space
available. Individuals who plan to
attend and need special assistance, such
as sign language interpretation or other
reasonable accommodations, should
notify the Contact Person listed below
in advance of the meeting.
Name of Committee: Scientific
Management Review Board (SMRB).
Date: March 25, 2014.
Time: 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Agenda: As noted in the NIH mission
statement, one of the goals of NIH is to
‘‘develop, maintain, and renew scientific
human. . .resources that will ensure the
Nation’s capability to prevent disease,’’ as
well as ‘‘to expand the knowledge base in
medical and associated sciences in order to
enhance the Nation’s economic well-being
and ensure a continued high return on the
public investment in research.’’ Toward this
end, the SMRB was recently charged with
recommending ways NIH could cultivate
sustained interest in biomedical science
among students from pre-kindergarten
through high school in order to contribute to
a healthy biomedical workforce pipeline.
Presentations and discussions at the March
25 SMRB meeting will focus on this charge.
Time will be allotted on the agenda for
public comment. Sign up for public
comments will begin approximately at 8:00

U.S. Immigration and Customs

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: This notice informs the public
of the extension of an earlier notice,
which suspended certain requirements
for F–1 nonimmigrant students whose
country of citizenship is Haiti and who
are experiencing severe economic
hardship as a direct result of the January
12, 2010 earthquake in Haiti. This
notice extends the effective date of that
notice.
DATES: This notice is effective March 3,
2014 and will remain in effect until
January 22, 2016.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Louis Farrell, Director, Student and
Exchange Visitor Program; MS 5600,

Program information can be found at
https://www.ice.gov/sevis/.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
What action is DHS taking under this
notice?
The Secretary of Homeland Security
is exercising authority under 8 CFR
214.2(f)(9) to extend the suspension of
the applicability of certain requirements
governing on-campus and off-campus
employment for F–1 nonimmigrant
students whose country of citizenship is
Haiti and who are experiencing severe
economic hardship as a direct result of
the January 12, 2010 earthquake in
Haiti. See 75 FR 56120 (Sept. 15, 2010).
The original notice was effective from
September 15, 2010 until July 22, 2011.

Subsequent notices provided for an 18month extension from July 22, 2011
until January 22, 2013, and again from
January 22, 2013 until July 22, 2014. See
76 FR 28997 (May 19, 2011); 77 FR
59942 (Oct. 1, 2012). Effective with this
publication, suspension of the
requirements is extended from July 22,
2014 until January 22, 2016.
F–1 nonimmigrant students granted
employment authorization through the
notice will continue to be deemed to be
engaged in a ‘‘full course of study’’ for
the duration of their employment
authorization, provided they satisfy the
minimum course load requirement
described in 75 FR 56120. See 8 CFR
214.2(f)(6)(i)(F).
Who is covered under this action?
This notice applies exclusively to F–
1 nonimmigrant students whose country
of citizenship is Haiti and who were
lawfully present in the United States in
F–1 nonimmigrant status on January 12,
2010 under section 101(a)(15)(F)(i) of
the Immigration and Nationality Act
(INA), 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(15)(F)(i), and (1)
are enrolled in an institution that is
Student and Exchange Visitor Program
(SEVP)-certified for enrollment of F–1
students, (2) are currently maintaining
F–1 status, and (3) are experiencing
severe economic hardship as a direct
result of the January 12, 2010
earthquake in Haiti.
This notice applies both to
undergraduate and graduate students, as
well as elementary school, middle
school, and high school students. The
notice, however, applies differently to
elementary school, middle school, and
high school students (see the discussion
published in 75 FR 56120, available at
https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-201009-15/pdf/2010-22929.pdf, in the
question, ‘‘Does this notice apply to
elementary school, middle school, and
high school students in F–1 status?’’).
F–1 students covered by this notice
who transfer to other academic
institutions that are SEVP-certified for
enrollment of F–1 students remain
eligible for the relief provided by means
of this notice.
Why is DHS taking this action?
The Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) took action to provide
temporary relief to F–1 nonimmigrant
students whose country of citizenship is
Haiti and experienced severe economic
hardship as a result of the January 12,
2010 earthquake. See 75 FR 56120. It
enabled these F–1 students to obtain
employment authorization, work an
increased number of hours while school
was in session, and reduce their course
