Overview of This Information
Collection
Title: Small Vessel Reporting System.
OMB Number: 1651–0137.
Abstract: The Small Vessel Reporting
System (SVRS) is a pilot program that
allows certain participants using small
pleasure boats to report their arrival
telephonically instead of having to
appear in person for inspection by a
CBP officer each time they enter the
United States. In some cases, a
participant may also be asked to report
to CBP for an in person inspection upon
arrival. Participants may be U.S.
citizens, U.S. lawful permanent
residents, Canadian citizens, and
permanent residents of Canada who are
nationals of Visa Waiver Program
countries listed in 8 CFR 217.2(a). In
addition, participants of one or more
Trusted Traveler programs and current
Canadian Border Boater Landing Permit
(CBP Form I–68) holders may
participate in SVRS.
In order to register for the SVRS pilot
program, participants enter data via the
SVRS website, which collects
information such as biographical
information and vessel information.
Participants will go through the in
person CBP inspection process during
SVRS registration, and in some cases,
upon arrival in the United States.

Notice.

On March 27, 2018, President
Trump issued a memorandum to the
Secretary of Homeland Security
(Secretary), Kirstjen M. Nielsen,
directing her to implement for eligible
Liberians a 12-month deferred enforced
departure (DED) wind-down period and
to provide for work authorization
through March 31, 2019, upon which
date DED will end. This 12-month
transitional period of DED will allow
impacted individuals to arrange for their
departure from the United States. This
Notice automatically extends DEDrelated employment authorization
documents (EADs) that have a printed
expiration date of March 31, 2018, for
an additional 6 months through
September 30, 2018, for eligible
Liberians. This Notice also provides
instructions for eligible Liberians on
how to apply for the full 12-month
period of employment authorization,
through March 31, 2019. USCIS will
issue new employment authorization
documents (EADs) with a March 31,
2019 expiration date to eligible
Liberians who are covered by DED
under the Presidential Memorandum of
March 27, 2018, and who apply for a
new EAD. Given the timeframes
involved with processing EAD
applications, DHS recognizes that not
all DED-eligible Liberians will receive
new EADs before their current EADs
expire on March 31, 2018. Accordingly,
through this Notice, DHS also
automatically extends the validity of
DED-related EADs for 6 months, through
September 30, 2018, and explains how
Liberians covered under DED and their
employers may determine which EADs
are automatically extended and how
this impacts the Employment Eligibility
Verification (Form I–9) and E-Verify
processes.

SUMMARY:

The 12-month transitional DED
period ends on March 31, 2019. The 6month automatic extension of DEDrelated EADs, as specified in this
Notice, expires on September 30, 2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
• For further information on DED,
including additional information on
eligibility, please visit the USCIS DED
