The following is from INS web Page.
It nver says that the visa will be limited for 30 days.
But it says :

"When B visa holders apply for entry to the
United States, they will be required to explain to an INS Immigration Inspector the nature and purpose of their visit so the Inspector can determine the appropriate length of stay.? While INS Inspectors will make every effort to determine a fair and reasonable time period, the burden of proof rests with the alien.? When the time needed to accomplish the purpose of the visit cannot be determined, INS will grant a 30-day period of admission."

So it is important to note that the burder of proof lies wth the visitor *to convice with documentations) that their proposed duration of stay is REALLY needed.

Here is the whole uncut paragraph:

Minimum Admission Period Eliminated

The proposed rule will eliminate the current minimum six months admission period for B-2 visitors for pleasure, replacing it with ?a period of time that is fair and reasonable for the completion of the purpose of the visit.?? When B visa holders apply for entry to the
United States, they will be required to explain to an INS Immigration Inspector the nature and purpose of their visit so the Inspector can determine the appropriate length of stay.? While INS Inspectors will make every effort to determine a fair and reasonable time period, the burden of proof rests with the alien.? When the time needed to accomplish the purpose of the visit cannot be determined, INS will grant a 30-day period of admission.
