[CIS No. 2656–20; DHS Docket No. USCIS–
2019–0022]
U.S. Citizenship and
Immigration Services (USCIS) in the
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) is announcing that nationals of
Iran and their dependents are no longer
eligible to change to or extend their stay
in E–1 or E–2 nonimmigrant status on
the basis of the 1955 Treaty of Amity,
Economic Relations, and Consular
Rights between the United States and
Iran (the Treaty of Amity) due to the
treaty’s termination.
DATES: This announcement is made on
January 23, 2020, and describes policy
that governs adjudications on or after
that date.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Foreign Workers Division, Office of
Policy and Strategy, U.S. Citizenship
and Immigration Services, Department

hearing or speech impairments may
access the telephone numbers above via
TTY by calling the toll-free Federal
Information Relay Service at 1–877–
889–5627 (TTY/TDD).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Immigration and Nationality Act (INA),
as amended, establishes the E
nonimmigrant visa classification. Under
section 101(a)(15)(E) of the INA, an
otherwise admissible alien is eligible for
E visa classification if ‘‘entitled to enter
the United States under and in
pursuance of the provisions of a treaty
of commerce and navigation between
the United States and the foreign state
of which he is a national[.]’’ The
existence of a qualifying treaty or
authorizing legislation is therefore a
threshold requirement for the issuance
of an E visa or for obtaining such status.
On October 3, 2018, the U.S.
Department of State notified Iran of the
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00048
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
termination of the Treaty of Amity.
Subsequently, on October 23, 2019, the
U.S. Department of State provided DHS
with formal notice of the termination of
the treaty. There are no other qualifying
treaties with Iran currently in force or
other Iran-specific bases for granting or
extending E–1 or E–2 status to Iranian
nationals. Accordingly, a national of
Iran is no longer eligible for an
extension of stay in E–1 or E–2 status or
a change of status to E–1 or E–2 on the
basis of the Treaty of Amity. Aliens who
are currently in valid E–1 or E–2 status
on the basis of the Treaty of Amity,
including their family members who are
also in valid E status, will be required
to depart from the United States upon
expiration of their authorized period of
stay in the United States, unless
otherwise authorized to remain in the
United States (e.g., pursuant to a change
of status to another nonimmigrant status
or adjustment of status to lawful
permanent residence).
USCIS will issue Notices of Intent to
Deny (NOIDs) to the affected applicants
who have pending applications for
extensions of stay in, or changes of
status to, E–1 or E–2 status on the basis
of the Treaty of Amity. Through the
issuance of NOIDs, affected applicants
will be notified of the effect of the treaty
termination and given an opportunity to
respond. If the grounds for issuance of
the NOID are not overcome, USCIS will
proceed to deny the application.
The changes described in this notice
do not prevent Iranian nationals and
their dependents from seeking
admission in, or applying for a grant of,
another nonimmigrant visa
classification for which they believe
they can establish eligibility under U.S.
immigration law.

SUMMARY:
Background
The Fish and Wildlife Programs
Improvement and National Wildlife
Refuge System Centennial Act of 2000
(Improvement Act, Pub. L. 106–408)
amended the Pittman-Robertson
Wildlife Restoration Act (16 U.S.C. 669
et seq.) and the Dingell-Johnson Sport
Fish Restoration Act (16 U.S.C. 777 et
seq.) and established the Multistate
Conservation Grant Program. The
Improvement Act authorizes us to
award grants of up to $3 million
annually from funds available under
each of the restoration acts, for a total
of up to $6 million annually. Projects
can be funded from both funds,
depending on the project activities. We
may award grants to projects from a list
of priority projects recommended to us
by the Association of Fish and Wildlife
Agencies. The Service Director,
exercising the authority of the Secretary
of the Interior, need not fund all projects
on the list, but all projects funded must
be on the list. The Improvement Act
provides that funding for Multistate
grants is available in the year it is
appropriated and for the following year.
Funding Amounts
Total funding available for FY 2018
was $6,039,090; the total requested was
approximately $6,024,583.08. The
available funding was due to funding
carried over from FY 2017, as well as
the availability of funding that had
previously been sequestered. After
subtracting committed funds
($3,261,027) among the three
components of the 2016 National
Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and
Wildlife-Associated Recreation (parts A
& B), there was $2,778,063 available for
new awards. The 2018 new award
Priority List requested $2,763,556.08.
To be eligible for funding, a project
must benefit fish and/or wildlife
conservation for at least 26 States, for a
majority of the States in any one Service
Region, or for one of the regional
associations of State fish and wildlife
agencies. We may award grants to a
State, a group of States, or one or more
nongovernmental organizations. For the
purpose of carrying out the National
Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and
Wildlife-Associated Recreation, we may
award grants to the Service, if requested
by the Association, or to a State or a
group of States. Also, the Association
requires all project proposals to address
the Association’s National Conservation
Needs, which are announced annually
at the same time requests for proposals
are sent out. Further, applicants must
provide certification that no activities
conducted under a Multistate
Conservation Grant will promote or
encourage opposition to regulated
hunting or trapping of wildlife, or to
regulated angling or taking of fish.
The Association’s committees and
interested nongovernmental
organizations that represent
conservation organizations, sportsmen’s
and -women’s organizations, and
industries that support or promote
fishing, hunting, trapping, recreational
shooting, bowhunting, or archery review
and rank eligible project proposals. The
Association’s National Grants
Committee recommends a final list of
priority projects to the directors of the
State fish and wildlife agencies for their
approval by majority vote. By statute,
the Association then transmits the final
approved list to the Service for funding
under the Multistate Conservation Grant
program by October 1 of the fiscal year.
Funding Eligibility
Fiscal Year 2018 Priority List of
Awarded Wildlife and Sport Fish
Conservation Projects
Grantees under this program may use
funds for sport fisheries and wildlife
management and research projects,
boating access development, hunter
safety and education, aquatic education,
fish and wildlife habitat improvements,
and other purposes consistent with the
enabling legislation.
For FY 2018, the Association sent us
a list of 18 new projects, plus the 3
previously approved components of the
2016 National Survey of Fishing,
Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated
Recreation that they recommended for
