Department of Homeland Security December 15, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Coast Guard proposes establishing a temporary safety zone within the Thompson Bay region of the navigable waters of the Colorado River in Lake Havasu, Lake Havasu City, Arizona in support of the Desert Storm Exhibition Run. This temporary safety zone is would provide for the safety of the participants, crew, spectators, participating vessels and other vessels and users of the waterway. Persons and vessels will be prohibited from entering into, transiting through, or anchoring within this safety zone unless authorized by the Captain of the Port, or his designated representative.

On October 1, 2008, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published a Notice in the Federal Register extending the designation of El Salvador for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) through September 9, 2010. Beneficiaries of TPS for El Salvador are required to re-register and obtain new Employment Authorization Documents (EADs). Since USCIS will not be able to process and re-issue new EADs for all such beneficiaries by the March 9, 2009, expiration date, USCIS has decided to automatically extend the validity of EADs issued to Salvadoran nationals (or aliens having no nationality who last habitually resided in El Salvador) until September 9, 2009. This Notice announces that extension and also explains how TPS beneficiaries and their employers may determine which EADs are automatically extended.
