I am interested if anyone could shed some light on citizenship/resident requirements in relation to National/USMS relay records. Is it possible for a record setting relay with one or more members of that relay, not being a US citizen(s) or even a resident(s), to be recognized as such?

Seems like a simple fix? Especially with Worlds bringing about 10,000 people into town!
This is a FINA sanctioned meet, so it's not like foreign swimmers will be able to break USMS records (unless they are USMS members, that is).
My opinion is still that USMS records should be citizenship independent as they currently are. I just don't see the need for USMS Open records, or whatever you want to call them.
