Special eligibility questions.
(a)(1) This part is not applicable to
recipients providing services in the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands, the Republic of Palau, the
Federated States of Micronesia, or the
Republic of the Marshall Islands.
(2) All citizens of the Republic of
Palau, the Federated States of
Micronesia, and the Republic of the
Marshall Islands residing in the United
States are eligible to receive legal
assistance provided that they are
otherwise eligible under the Act.
(b) All Canadian-born American
Indians at least 50% Indian by blood are
eligible to receive legal assistance
provided they are otherwise eligible
under the Act.
(c) Members of the Texas Band of
Kickapoo are eligible to receive legal
assistance provided they are otherwise
eligible under the Act.
(d) An alien who qualified as a special
agricultural worker and whose status is
adjusted to that of temporary resident
alien under the provisions of the
Immigration Reform and Control Act
(‘‘IRCA’’) is considered a permanent
resident alien for all purposes except
immigration under the provisions of
section 302 of 100 Stat. 3422, 8 U.S.C.
1160(g). Since the status of these aliens
is that of permanent resident alien
under section 101(a)(20) of the INA (8
U.S.C. 1101(a)(20)), these workers may
be provided legal assistance. These
workers are ineligible for legal

adjustment of status of temporary
resident under IRCA, but are eligible for
legal assistance after the application for
adjustment of status to that of temporary
resident has been filed, and the
application has not been rejected.
(e) A recipient may provide legal
assistance to indigent foreign nationals
who seek assistance pursuant to the
Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects
of International Child Abduction and
the Federal implementing statute, the
International Child Abduction Remedies

pertain to migratory game bird hunting,
upland game hunting, big game hunting,
and sport fishing for the 2013–2014
season. Inadvertently, we made two
technical errors in our regulatory text
for Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge in
Colorado. This action makes the
necessary corrections to the regulations
for that refuge.
DATES: This correction is effective April
18, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a final
rule that published March 17, 2014 (79
FR 14809), we amended the refugespecific regulations for certain refuges
that pertain to migratory game bird
hunting, upland game hunting, big game
hunting, and sport fishing for the 2013–
2014 season. The Arapaho National
Wildlife Refuge (NWR) in Colorado is
one of the refuges for which we
published amended regulations. In the
final rule, we inadvertently required
that hunters may only use shotguns as
the legal method of take for migratory
game birds and upland game on
Arapaho NWR. This requirement is
inconsistent with Colorado State
regulations, which allow take by both
shotgun and falconry. Therefore, we are
correcting the regulations for Arapaho
NWR to provide that take of migratory
game birds and upland game must
comply with State regulations.

ACTION: Temporary rule; reopening.
AGENCY:
NMFS reopens commercial
penaeid shrimp trawling, i.e., for brown,
pink, and white shrimp, in the exclusive
economic zone (EEZ) off South Carolina
in the South Atlantic. NMFS previously
closed commercial penaeid shrimp
trawling in the EEZ off South Carolina
on February 13, 2014. The reopening is
intended to maximize harvest benefits
while protecting the penaeid shrimp
resource.
SUMMARY:
The reopening is effective at
12:01 a.m., local time, May 1, 2014,
until the effective date of a notification
of a closure which will be published in
the Federal Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Penaeid
shrimp in the South Atlantic are
managed under the Fishery
Management Plan for the Shrimp
Fishery of the South Atlantic Region
(FMP). The FMP was prepared by the
South Atlantic Fishery Management
Council (Council) and is implemented
pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with RULES

under the authority of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens
Act) by regulations at 50 CFR part 622.
Under 50 CFR 622.206(a), NMFS may
close the EEZ adjacent to South Atlantic
states that have closed their waters to
the harvest of brown, pink, and white
shrimp to protect the white shrimp
spawning stock that has been severely
depleted by cold weather or when
applicable state water temperatures are
9 °C (48 °F), or less, for at least 7
consecutive days. Consistent with those
procedures and criteria, after
determining that unusually cold
temperatures resulted in water
temperatures of 9 °C (48 °F), or less, for
at least 7 consecutive days in its state
waters, the state of South Carolina
closed its waters on January 13, 2014, to
the harvest of brown, pink, and white
shrimp. South Carolina subsequently
requested that NMFS implement a
concurrent closure of the EEZ off South
Carolina.
NMFS determined that South
Carolina’s request for an EEZ closure
conformed with the procedures and
criteria specified in the FMP and the
Magnuson-Stevens Act, and, therefore,
implemented the concurrent EEZ
closure effective as of February 13,
2014, and that in no case would the EEZ
closure remain in effect after May 31,
2014 (79 FR 8635, February 13, 2014).
During the closure, as specified in 50
CFR 622.206(a)(2), no person could: (1)
Trawl for brown, pink, or white shrimp
in the EEZ off South Carolina; (2)
possess on board a fishing vessel brown,
pink, or white shrimp in or from the
EEZ off South Carolina unless the vessel
is in transit through the area and all nets
with a mesh size of less than 4 inches
(10.2 cm) are stowed below deck; or (3)
for a vessel trawling within 25 nautical
miles of the baseline from which the
territorial sea is measured, use or have
on board a trawl net with a mesh size
less than 4 inches (10.2 cm), as
measured between the centers of
opposite knots when pulled taut.
The FMP and implementing
regulations at 50 CFR 622.206(a) state
that: (1) The closure will be effective
until the ending date of the closure in
the state waters, but may be ended
earlier based on the state’s request; and
(2) if the state closure is ended earlier,
NMFS will terminate the closure of the
EEZ by filing a notification to that effect
with the Office of the Federal Register.

On April 7, 2014, the state of South
Carolina requested the EEZ to be
reopened no later than May 1, 2014,
based on their biological sampling. The
state of South Carolina is continuing its
monitoring of both water conditions and
the penaeid shrimp population in state
waters but has not yet determined when
the state waters reopening will occur.
Therefore, NMFS publishes this
notification to reopen the EEZ off South
Carolina to the harvest of brown, pink,
and white shrimp effective 12:01 a.m.,
local time, May 1, 2014.
Classification
This action responds to the best
available information recently obtained
from the fishery. The Assistant
Administrator for Fisheries, NOAA,
(AA), finds good cause to waive the
requirement to provide prior notice and
opportunity for public comment
pursuant to the authority set forth at 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(B). Allowing prior notice
and opportunity for public comment on
the reopening is unnecessary because
the rule establishing the reopening
procedures has already been subject to
notice and comment, and all that
remains is to notify the public of the
reopening date. Additionally, allowing
for prior notice and opportunity for
public comment for this reopening is
contrary to the public interest because it
requires time, thus delaying the removal
of a restriction and thereby reducing
socio-economic benefits to the
commercial sector. Also, the FMP
procedures and implementing
regulations require the commercial
penaeid shrimp trawling component to
reopen no later than May 31, 2014, or
earlier based on the state’s request,
which South Carolina requested to be
May 1, 2014.
For the aforementioned reasons, the
AA also finds good cause to waive the
30-day delay in effectiveness of this
action under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3).
This action is authorized by 50 CFR
622.206(a) and is exempt from review
under Executive Order 12866.
Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Correcting amendments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, published a final rule
in the Federal Register on March 17, 2014, to amend the refuge-specific
regulations for certain refuges that pertain to migratory game bird
hunting, upland game hunting, big game hunting, and sport fishing for
the 2013-2014 season. Inadvertently, we made two technical errors in
our regulatory text for Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge in Colorado.
This action makes the necessary corrections to the regulations for that
refuge.
DATES: This correction is effective April 18, 2014.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Brian Salem, (703) 358-2397.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In a final rule that published March 17,
2014 (79 FR 14809), we amended the refuge-specific regulations for
certain refuges that pertain to migratory game bird hunting, upland
game hunting, big game hunting, and sport fishing for the 2013-2014
season. The Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) in Colorado is one
of the refuges for which we published amended regulations. In the final
rule, we inadvertently required that hunters may only use shotguns as
the legal method of take for migratory game birds and upland game on
Arapaho NWR. This requirement is inconsistent with Colorado State
regulations, which allow take by both shotgun and falconry. Therefore,
we are correcting the regulations for Arapaho NWR to provide that take
of migratory game birds and upland game must comply with State
regulations.
