Title: Visa Waiver Program Carrier
Agreement.
OMB Number: 1651–0110.
Form Number: CBP Form I–775.
Abstract: Section 223 of the
Immigration and Nationality Act (INA)
(8 U.S.C. 1223(a)) provides for the
necessity of a transportation contract.
The statute provides that the Attorney
General may enter into contracts with
transportation lines for the inspection
and administration of aliens coming
into the United States from a foreign
territory or from adjacent islands. No
such transportation line shall be
allowed to land any such alien in the
United States until and unless it has
entered into any such contracts which
may be required by the Attorney
General. Pursuant to the Homeland
Security Act of 2002, this authority was
transferred to the Secretary of Homeland
Security.
The Visa Waiver Program Carrier
Agreement (CBP Form I–775) is used by
carriers to request acceptance by CBP
into the Visa Waiver Program (VWP).
This form is an agreement whereby
carriers agree to the terms of the VWP
as delineated in section 217(e) of the
INA (8 U.S.C. 1187(e)). Once
participation is granted, CBP Form I–
775 serves to hold carriers liable for the
transportation costs, to ensure the
completion of required forms, and to
share passenger data. Regulations are
promulgated at 8 CFR part 217.6, Carrier
Agreements. A copy of CBP Form I–775
is accessible at: http://forms.cbp.gov/
pdf/CBP_Form_I775.pdf.
Current Actions: This submission is
being made to extend the expiration
date with no change to information
collected or to CBP Form I–775.
Type of Review: Extension (without
change).
Affected Public: Businesses.

John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier
Resources System; Availability of Final
Revised Maps for Maine, Maryland,
New Jersey, New York, North Carolina,
and Virginia
AGENCY:

Fish and Wildlife Service,

Interior.
Notice of availability.

ACTION:

The Coastal Barrier Resources
Act (CBRA) requires the Secretary of the
Interior (Secretary) to review the maps
of the John H. Chafee Coastal Barrier
Resources System (CBRS) at least once
every 5 years and make any minor and
technical modifications to the
boundaries of the CBRS as are necessary
to reflect changes that have occurred in
the size or location of any CBRS unit as
a result of natural forces. The U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service (Service) has
conducted this review and has prepared
final revised maps for all of the CBRS
units in Maine, all units in Maryland,
all units in New Jersey, all units in
Virginia, 1 unit in New York, and 13
units in North Carolina. The maps were
produced by the Service in partnership
with the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) and in
consultation with the appropriate
Federal, State, and local officials. This
notice announces the findings of the
Service’s review and the availability of
final revised maps for 182 CBRS units.
The final revised maps for these CBRS
units, dated August 1, 2014, are the
official controlling CBRS maps for these
areas.
DATES: Changes to the CBRS depicted on
the final revised maps, dated August 1,
2014, become effective on May 4, 2015.

to get copies of the maps or where to go

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Background information on the CBRA
(CBRA; 16 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and the
CBRS, as well as information on the
digital conversion effort and the
methodology used to produce the
revised maps, can be found in a notice
the Service published in the Federal
Register on August 29, 2013 (78 FR
53467).
For information on how to access the
final revised maps, see the Availability
of Final Maps and Related Information
section below.
Announced Map Modifications
This notice announces modifications
to the maps for all of the CBRS units in
Maine, all units in Maryland, all units
in New Jersey, all units in Virginia, 1
unit in New York, and 13 units in North
Carolina. Most of the modifications
were made to reflect changes to the
CBRS units as a result of natural forces
(e.g., erosion and accretion). The CBRA
requires the Secretary to review the
CBRS maps at least once every 5 years
and make, in consultation with the
appropriate Federal, State, and local
officials, any minor and technical
modifications to the boundaries of the
CBRS as are necessary to reflect changes
that have occurred in the size or
location of any CBRS unit as a result of
natural forces (16 U.S.C. 3503(c)).
The Service’s review resulted in a set
of 118 final revised maps, dated August
1, 2014, depicting a total of 182 CBRS
units. The set of maps includes 19 maps
for 34 CBRS units located in Maine; 23
maps for 49 CBRS units located in
Maryland; 16 maps for 21 CBRS units
located in New Jersey; 32 maps for 64
CBRS units located in Virginia; 2 maps
for 1 CBRS unit located in New York;
and 26 maps for 13 CBRS units located
in North Carolina. Comprehensively
revised maps for North Carolina Units
L07, L08, and L09, were made effective
on December 18, 2014, via Pub. L. 113–
253; therefore, the revised maps
prepared for these units through the
digital conversion effort will not be
adopted administratively by the Service
and are not described in this notice. The
Service found that a total of 138 of the
