Sec. 51.2  Application.

    Materials covering procedures for applying for substantial 
disruption waivers (including the comprehensive plan) may be obtained 
from the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates, 3624 
Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104.

    Explanatory Note: The Department of State entered into an agreement 
with the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates in 1971 
whereby the latter was designated the authority to administer the 
issuance of the Form IAP-66 in all cases involving the admission, 
certification, transfer or extension of stay for foreign physicians in 
exchange visitor status who are receiving graduate medical education or 
training. The Commission was further designated the authority (Federal 
Register, Volume 44, No. 59, March 26, 1979), to process waiver requests 
under the ``substantial disruption'' provision of Pub. L. 94-484, as 
amended, within criteria to be provided by the United States Information 
Agency on advice from the Department of Health and Human Services 
(formerly Department of Health, Education, and Welfare).
