Adjustments to Limitations on Designated School Official Assignment and Study by F-2 and M-2 Nonimmigrants
Document Number: 2015-09959
Type: Rule
Date: 2015-04-29
Agency: Department of Homeland Security
The Department of Homeland Security is amending its regulations under the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) to improve management of international student programs and increase opportunities for study by spouses and children of nonimmigrant students. This rule grants school officials more flexibility in determining the number of designated school officials to nominate for the oversight of campuses. The rule also provides greater incentive for international students to study in the United States by permitting accompanying spouses and children of academic and vocational nonimmigrant students with F-1 or M-1 nonimmigrant status to enroll in study at an SEVP-certified school so long as any study remains less than a full course of study. F-2 and M-2 spouses and children remain prohibited, however, from engaging in a full course of study unless they apply for, and DHS approves, a change of nonimmigrant status to a nonimmigrant status authorizing such study.
Single Family Housing Direct Loan Program
Document Number: 2015-09958
Type: Rule
Date: 2015-04-29
Agency: Department of Agriculture, Rural Housing Service
The Rural Housing Service (RHS or Agency) published a proposed rule on August 23, 2013, to amend its regulations for the section 502 direct single family housing loan program to create a certified loan application packaging process. Through this action, revisions are being made to the rule based on an evaluation of the public comments received as well as the results of the pilot program RHS began in 2010 to test changes to the loan application packaging process. This final rule will impose reasonable experience, training, structure, and performance requirements on eligible service providers; and it will regulate the packaging fee permitted under the process. By establishing a vast network of competent, experienced, and committed Agency-certified packagers, this action is intended to benefit low- and very low-income people who wish to achieve homeownership in rural areas by increasing their awareness of the Agency's housing program, increasing specialized support available to them to complete the application for assistance, and improving the quality of loan application packages submitted on their behalf.

Date: 2015-04-29
Agency: Environmental Protection Agency
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is approving revisions to the Washington State Implementation Plan (SIP) that were submitted by the Department of Ecology (Ecology) on January 27, 2014.

Retrospective Review of Premarket Approval Application Devices; Striking the Balance Between Premarket and Postmarket Data Collection
Document Number: 2015-09884
Type: Notice
Date: 2015-04-29
Agency: Food and Drug Administration, Department of Health and Human Services
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the progress of the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) on its 2014-2015 Strategic Priority ``Strike the Right Balance Between Premarket and Postmarket Data Collection.'' To achieve this priority, CDRH established a goal to assure the appropriate balance between premarket and postmarket data collection to facilitate and expedite the development and review of medical devices, in particular high-risk devices of public health importance, and established a target date of December 31, 2014, by which to review 50 percent of product codes subject to a premarket approval application (PMA) that are legally marketed to determine whether or not, based on our current understanding of the technology, to rely on postmarket controls to reduce premarket data collection, to shift some premarket data collection to the postmarket setting, or to pursue down-classification. CDRH has taken such actions periodically in the past consistent with the medical device statutory framework but typically has done so on an ad hoc basis. CDRH also will require more data or up-classify a device, if warranted, based on the current state of the science; however, up- classification is not warranted for the devices subject to this retrospective review because they are already in the highest risk classification. In this document, CDRH is providing its current thinking on reviewed product types to solicit comments on the product codes that have been identified as candidates for reclassification, for reliance on postmarket controls to reduce premarket data collection, or a shift in premarket data collection to the postmarket setting.
