The publisher's summary

The Energy Security and Lightering Independence Act of 2022 amended the nonimmigrant classifications for aliens in transit (C) and for aliens serving as crewmen (D) to include individuals who perform ship-to-ship liquid cargo transfer operations to or from another vessel engaged in foreign trade (lightering). The statute authorizes qualifying aliens to seek admission to the United States or request temporary landing permits for a period not to exceed 180 days. This rule amends Department of Homeland Security (DHS) regulations to conform to these statutory changes and make related technical amendments.
