Correction to Revision of Licensee's Responsibility To
Communicate License Conditions
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Interim rule; Correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Industry and Security is correcting an interim
rule that appeared in the Federal Register of November 23, 2004 (67 FR
68076). The rule amended the regulations to require licensees to
communicate in writing specific licensing conditions. This rule amends
the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by correcting an error by
inserting regulatory text inadvertently omitted.
DATES: This correction is effective: November 23, 2004.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jeffery Lynch, Regulatory Policy
Division, Office of Exporter Services, Bureau of Industry and Security;
e-mail: jlynch@bis.doc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule amends the document appearing on
page 68077 of the Federal Register of Thursday, November 23, 2004. BIS
amends the rule to correct an error in the interim rule requiring
licensees to communicate in writing specific license conditions to the
parties to whom the license conditions apply.
Sec. 750.7 [Corrected]
1. On page 68077 of the Federal Register, in the second column,
amendment number 3 to section 750.7 is corrected to read as follows:
``It is the licensee's responsibility to communicate in writing the
specific license conditions to the parties to whom those conditions
apply.''
Rulemaking Requirements
1. This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes
of E.O. 12866.
2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is
required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty
for failure to comply with a collection of information, subject to the
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501et
seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of information displays a currently
valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number. This rule
involves a collection of information subject to the PRA. This
collection has been approved by OMB under control number 0694-0122,
``Multi-Purpose Application,'' which carries a burden hour estimate of
10 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. Send comments
regarding these burden estimates or any other aspect of this collection
of information, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to David
Rostker, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), by e-mail to
David_Rostker@omb.eop.gov, or by fax to (202) 395-7285; and to the Office of
Administration, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of
Commerce, 14th and Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Room 6883, Washington, DC
20230.
3. This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications
as that term is defined under E.O. 13132.
4. The Department finds under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) that good cause
exists to waive prior notice and opportunity for public comment. This
rule revises the EAR to require licensees to communicate in writing
specific license conditions to the parties to whom they apply. This
rule merely clarifies the identify of the person to whom the notice
must be provided. The previously existing EAR requirement to provide
such notice is unchanged by this rule. Because the rule containing the
error has not become effective, this correction is not a substantive
change to the EAR. Accordingly, it is unnecessary to provide prior
notice and opportunity for public comment. Therefore, this rule is
being issued in final form.
Although there is no formal comment period, public comments on this
regulation are welcome on a continuing basis. Comments should be
submitted to Jeffrey Lynch, Regulatory Policy Division, Office of
Exporter Services, Bureau of Industry and Security, P.O. Box 273,
Washington, DC 20044, e-mailed to: jlynch@bis.doc.gov, or faxed to
(202) 482-3355. The public record concerning this regulation will be
maintained in the Bureau of Industry and Security Freedom of
Information Records Inspection Facility, Room 6881, Department of
Commerce, 14th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC
20230. Records in this facility may be inspected and copied in
accordance with regulations published in part 4 of Title 15 of the Code
of Federal Regulations. Information about the inspection and copying of
records at the facility may be obtained from the Bureau of Industry and
Security Freedom of Information Officer, at the above address or by
calling (202) 482-0500. List of Subjects for 15 CFR Part
