Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 119 / Thursday, June 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations Hilo, HI: ‘‘This Class E airspace is effective during the specific dates and times established in advance by a Notice to Airmen. The effective date and time will thereafter be continuously published in the Airport/Facility Directory, Pacific Chart Supplement.’’ This action brings the airspace description in Order 7400.11A in line with the airspace hours listed in the applicable Pacific Chart Supplement. This is an administrative change and does not affect the boundaries, altitudes, or operating requirements of the airspace, therefore, notice and public procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is unnecessary. Regulatory Notices and Analyses The FAA has determined that this regulation only involves an established body of technical regulations for which frequent and routine amendments are necessary to keep them operationally current, is non-controversial and unlikely to result in adverse or negative comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant preparation of a regulatory evaluation as the anticipated impact is so minimal. Since this is a routine matter that only affects air traffic procedures and air navigation, it is certified that this rule, when promulgated, does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities under the criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. The FAA has determined that this action qualifies for categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act in accordance with FAA Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ paragraph 5–6.5a. This airspace action is not expected to cause any potentially significant environmental impacts, and no extraordinary circumstances exist that warrant preparation of an environmental assessment. sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with RULES Lists of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 71 Airspace, Incorporation by reference, Navigation (air).

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding ten entities to the Entity List. The ten entities that are added to the Entity List have been determined by the U.S. Government to be acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. BIS is taking this action to ensure the efficacy of existing sanctions on the Russian SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 28405 Federation (Russia) for violating international law and fueling the conflict in eastern Ukraine. These entities will be listed on the Entity List under the destinations of the Crimea region of Ukraine and Russia. DATES: This rule is effective June 22, 2017. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chair, End-User Review Committee, Office of the Assistant Secretary, Export Administration, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, Phone: (202) 482–5991, Email: ERC@ bis.doc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744 of the EAR) identifies entities and other persons reasonably believed to be involved in, or that pose a significant risk of being or becoming involved in, activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy of the United States. The EAR imposes additional licensing requirements on, and limits the availability of most license exceptions for, exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to those persons or entities listed on the Entity List. The license review policy for each listed entity is identified in the License Review Policy column on the Entity List and the impact on the availability of license exceptions is described in the Federal Register notice adding entities or other persons to the Entity List. BIS places entities on the Entity List based on certain sections of part 744 (Control Policy: End-User and End-Use Based) and part 746 (Embargoes and Other Special Controls) of the EAR. The End-user Review Committee (ERC) is composed of representatives of the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy, and where appropriate, the Treasury. The ERC makes decisions to add an entry to the Entity List by majority vote and to remove or modify an entry by unanimous vote. The Departments represented on the ERC have approved these changes to the Entity List. Entity List Additions Additions to the Entity List This rule adds ten entities to the Entity List. These ten entities are being added on the basis of § 744.11 (License requirements that apply to entities acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States) of the EAR. The ten entries being added to the Entity List consist of two entries in the Crimea region of Ukraine and eight entries in Russia. E:\FR\FM\22JNR1.SGM 22JNR1 28406 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 119 / Thursday, June 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations Under § 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) of the EAR, persons for whom there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, have been involved, are involved, or pose a significant risk of being or becoming involved in, activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States and those acting on behalf of such persons may be added to the Entity List. The entities being added to the Entity List have been determined to be involved in activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. Specifically, in this rule, BIS adds entities to the Entity List for violating international law and fueling the conflict in eastern Ukraine. These additions ensure the efficacy of existing sanctions on Russia. The particular additions to the Entity List and related authorities are described below. sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with RULES A. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13660 Three entities are added based on activities that are described in Executive Order 13660 (79 FR 13493), Blocking Property of Certain Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, issued by President Barack Obama on March 6, 2014. As described in the Executive Order, President Obama found that the actions and policies of persons who have asserted governmental authority in Crimea without the authorization of the Government of Ukraine undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets, and thereby constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. President Obama also declared a national emergency to deal with that threat. Executive Order 13660 blocks all property and interests in property that are in the United States, that come within the United States, or that are or come within the possession or control of any United States person (including any foreign branch) of any person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, to be responsible for or complicit in, or to have engaged in, directly or indirectly, misappropriation of state assets of Ukraine or of an economically significant entity in Ukraine, among other activities. Under Section 8 of the Order, all agencies of the United States Government are directed to take all appropriate VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:41 Jun 21, 2017 Jkt 241001 measures within their authority to carry out the provisions of the Order. The Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), pursuant to Executive Order 13660, has designated the following three entities as being within the scope of the Order: Bike Center, Private Military Company ‘Wagner’ and ‘Wolf’ Holding of Security Services. In conjunction with that designation, the Department of Commerce adds all three entities to the Entity List under this rule and imposes a license requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of all items subject to the EAR to these blocked persons. This license requirement implements an appropriate measure within the authority of the EAR to carry out the provisions of Executive Order 13660. B. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13661 Three entities are added based on activities that are described in Executive Order 13661 (79 FR 15533), Blocking Property of Additional Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, issued by President Barack Obama on March 16, 2014. This Order expanded the scope of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660 of March 6, 2014 (79 FR 13493). As described in Executive Order 13661, President Obama found that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian Federation with respect to Ukraine—including the deployment of Russian military forces in the Crimea region of Ukraine—undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets, and thereby constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. Executive Order 13661 includes a directive that all property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or thereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person (including any foreign branch) of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in: Persons determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State to have either materially assisted, sponsored or provided financial, material or technological support for, or goods and services to or in support of a senior official of the government of the Russian Federation or operate in the PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 defense or related materiel sector in Russia. Under Section 8 of the Order, all agencies of the United States Government are directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the provisions of the Order. The Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, pursuant to Executive Order 13661, on behalf of the Secretary of Treasury, and in consultation with the Secretary of State, has designated the following three entities as being within the scope of the Order: Concord Catering, Limited Liability Company Concord Management Consulting and MolotOruzhie, OOO. BIS is also adding these entities to the Entity List pursuant to Executive Order 13661. The three entities added to the Entity List under Executive Order 13661 meet the criteria of Section 1, subparagraph B of the Executive Order 13661 because they operate in Russia’s arms or related materiel sector. With respect to these three entities, BIS imposes a license requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of all items subject to the EAR to these entities. This license requirement implements an appropriate measure within the authority of the EAR to carry out the provisions of Executive Order 13661. C. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13685 Four entities are added based on activities that are described in Executive Order 13685 (79 FR 77357), Blocking Property of Certain Persons and Prohibiting Certain Transactions with Respect to the Crimea Region of Ukraine, issued on December 19, 2014. In order to take additional steps to address the Russian occupation of the Crimea region of Ukraine with respect to the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660 of March 6, 2014, and expanded in Executive Order 13661 of March 16, 2014, and Executive Order 13662 of March 20, 2014, President Obama ordered certain additional prohibitions with respect to the Crimea region of Ukraine. In particular, Executive Order 13685 prohibits the export, reexport, sale or supply, directly or indirectly, from the United States or by a U.S. person, wherever located, of any goods, services, or technology to the Crimea region of Ukraine. Under Section 10 of the Order, all agencies of the United States Government are directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the provisions of the Order. The Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, E:\FR\FM\22JNR1.SGM 22JNR1 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 119 / Thursday, June 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations pursuant to Executive Order 13685, on behalf of the Secretary of the Treasury and in consultation with the Secretary of State, has designated the following four entities as operating in the Crimea region of Ukraine: IFDK, ZAO; KPSK, OOO; Oboronlogistika; and Riviera Sunrise Resort & Spa. In conjunction with these designations, BIS adds all four of these entities to the Entity List under this rule and imposes a license requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of all items subject to the EAR to these blocked persons. This license requirement implements an appropriate measure within the authority of the EAR to carry out the provisions of Executive Order 13685. For the ten entities added to the Entity List based on activities that are described in Executive Order 13660, 13661 or 13685, BIS imposes a license requirement for all items subject to the EAR and a license review policy of presumption of denial. The license requirements apply to any transaction in which items subject to the EAR are to be exported, reexported, or transferred (in-country) to any of the entities or in which such entities act as purchaser, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or end-user. In addition, no license exceptions are available for exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) to the entities being added to the Entity List in this rule. The acronyms ‘‘a.k.a.’’ (also known as) and ‘‘f.k.a.’’ (formerly known as) are used in entries on the Entity List to help exporters, reexporters and transferors to better identify listed persons on the Entity List. This final rule adds the following ten entities to the Entity List: sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with RULES Crimea Region of Ukraine (1) Riviera Sunrise Resort & Spa, a.k.a., the following one alias: —Riviera Sunrise Resort and Spa.

Export Administration Act of 1979 Although the Export Administration Act of 1979 expired on August 20, 2001, the President, through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002), as amended by Executive Order 13637 of March 8, 2013, 78 FR 16129 (March 13, 2013) and as extended by the Notice of August 4, 2016, 81 FR 52587 (August 8, 2016), has continued the Export Administration Regulations in effect under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. BIS continues to carry out the provisions of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as appropriate and to the extent permitted by law, pursuant to Executive Order 13222, as amended by Executive Order 13637. Rulemaking Requirements 1. Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of Executive Order 12866. 2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to nor 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. 3501 et seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of information displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number. This regulation involves collections previously approved by OMB under control number 0694–0088, Simplified Network Application Processing System, which includes, among other things, license applications and carries a burden E:\FR\FM\22JNR1.SGM 22JNR1 28408 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 119 / Thursday, June 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations estimate of 43.8 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. Total burden hours associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694–0088 are not expected to increase as a result of this rule. You may send comments regarding the collection of information associated with this rule, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to Jasmeet K. Seehra, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), by email to Jasmeet_K._Seehra@ omb.eop.gov, or by fax to (202) 395– 7285. 3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications as that term is defined in Executive Order 13132. 4. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for public comment and a delay in effective date are inapplicable because this regulation involves a military or foreign affairs function of the United States. (See 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). BIS implementation of this rule is necessary to protect U.S. national security or foreign policy interests by preventing items from being exported, reexported, or transferred (in country) to the entities being added to the Entity List. If this rule were delayed to allow for notice and comment and a delay in effective date, the ten entities being added to the Entity List by this action would continue to be able to receive items without a license and to Country List of Subjects in 15 CFR Part 744 Exports, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Terrorism.

In addition, publishing a proposed rule would give these parties notice of the U.S. Government’s intention to place them on the Entity List and would create an incentive for these persons to either accelerate receiving items subject to the EAR to conduct activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States, and/or to take steps to set up additional aliases, change addresses, and other measures to try to limit the impact of the listing on the Entity List once a final rule was published.

Russian Sanctions: Addition of Certain Entities to the Entity 
List

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export 
Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding ten entities to the Entity 
List. The ten entities that are added to the Entity List have been 
determined by the U.S. Government to be acting contrary to the national 
security or foreign policy interests of the United States. BIS is 
taking this action to ensure the efficacy of existing sanctions on the 
Russian Federation (Russia) for violating international law and fueling 
the conflict in eastern Ukraine. These entities will be listed on the 
Entity List under the destinations of the Crimea region of Ukraine and 
Russia.

DATES: This rule is effective June 22, 2017.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chair, End-User Review Committee, 
Office of the Assistant Secretary, Export Administration, Bureau of 
Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, Phone: (202) 482-5991, 
Email: ERC@bis.doc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744 of the EAR) 
identifies entities and other persons reasonably believed to be 
involved in, or that pose a significant risk of being or becoming 
involved in, activities that are contrary to the national security or 
foreign policy of the United States. The EAR imposes additional 
licensing requirements on, and limits the availability of most license 
exceptions for, exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to those 
persons or entities listed on the Entity List. The license review 
policy for each listed entity is identified in the License Review 
Policy column on the Entity List and the impact on the availability of 
license exceptions is described in the Federal Register notice adding 
entities or other persons to the Entity List. BIS places entities on 
the Entity List based on certain sections of part 744 (Control Policy: 
End-User and End-Use Based) and part 746 (Embargoes and Other Special 
Controls) of the EAR.
    The End-user Review Committee (ERC) is composed of representatives 
of the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy, and 
where appropriate, the Treasury. The ERC makes decisions to add an 
entry to the Entity List by majority vote and to remove or modify an 
entry by unanimous vote. The Departments represented on the ERC have 
approved these changes to the Entity List.

Entity List Additions

Additions to the Entity List

    This rule adds ten entities to the Entity List. These ten entities 
are being added on the basis of Sec.  744.11 (License requirements that 
apply to entities acting contrary to the national security or foreign 
policy interests of the United States) of the EAR. The ten entries 
being added to the Entity List consist of two entries in the Crimea 
region of Ukraine and eight entries in Russia.

[[Page 28406]]

    Under Sec.  744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) of 
the EAR, persons for whom there is reasonable cause to believe, based 
on specific and articulable facts, have been involved, are involved, or 
pose a significant risk of being or becoming involved in, activities 
that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests 
of the United States and those acting on behalf of such persons may be 
added to the Entity List. The entities being added to the Entity List 
have been determined to be involved in activities that are contrary to 
the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. 
Specifically, in this rule, BIS adds entities to the Entity List for 
violating international law and fueling the conflict in eastern 
Ukraine. These additions ensure the efficacy of existing sanctions on 
Russia. The particular additions to the Entity List and related 
authorities are described below.

A. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13660

    Three entities are added based on activities that are described in 
Executive Order 13660 (79 FR 13493), Blocking Property of Certain 
Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, issued by President 
Barack Obama on March 6, 2014. As described in the Executive Order, 
President Obama found that the actions and policies of persons who have 
asserted governmental authority in Crimea without the authorization of 
the Government of Ukraine undermine democratic processes and 
institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, 
sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the 
misappropriation of its assets, and thereby constitute an unusual and 
extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the 
United States. President Obama also declared a national emergency to 
deal with that threat.
    Executive Order 13660 blocks all property and interests in property 
that are in the United States, that come within the United States, or 
that are or come within the possession or control of any United States 
person (including any foreign branch) of any person determined by the 
Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, 
to be responsible for or complicit in, or to have engaged in, directly 
or indirectly, misappropriation of state assets of Ukraine or of an 
economically significant entity in Ukraine, among other activities. 
Under Section 8 of the Order, all agencies of the United States 
Government are directed to take all appropriate measures within their 
authority to carry out the provisions of the Order.
    The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control 
(OFAC), pursuant to Executive Order 13660, has designated the following 
three entities as being within the scope of the Order: Bike Center, 
Private Military Company `Wagner' and `Wolf' Holding of Security 
Services. In conjunction with that designation, the Department of 
Commerce adds all three entities to the Entity List under this rule and 
imposes a license requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-
country) of all items subject to the EAR to these blocked persons. This 
license requirement implements an appropriate measure within the 
authority of the EAR to carry out the provisions of Executive Order 
13660.

B. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13661

    Three entities are added based on activities that are described in 
Executive Order 13661 (79 FR 15533), Blocking Property of Additional 
Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, issued by President 
Barack Obama on March 16, 2014. This Order expanded the scope of the 
national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660 of March 6, 2014 
(79 FR 13493). As described in Executive Order 13661, President Obama 
found that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian 
Federation with respect to Ukraine--including the deployment of Russian 
military forces in the Crimea region of Ukraine--undermine democratic 
processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, 
stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to 
the misappropriation of its assets, and thereby constitute an unusual 
and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of 
the United States.
    Executive Order 13661 includes a directive that all property and 
interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter 
come within the United States, or that are or thereafter come within 
the possession or control of any United States person (including any 
foreign branch) of the following persons are blocked and may not be 
transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in: Persons 
determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the 
Secretary of State to have either materially assisted, sponsored or 
provided financial, material or technological support for, or goods and 
services to or in support of a senior official of the government of the 
Russian Federation or operate in the defense or related materiel sector 
in Russia. Under Section 8 of the Order, all agencies of the United 
States Government are directed to take all appropriate measures within 
their authority to carry out the provisions of the Order.
    The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, 
pursuant to Executive Order 13661, on behalf of the Secretary of 
Treasury, and in consultation with the Secretary of State, has 
designated the following three entities as being within the scope of 
the Order: Concord Catering, Limited Liability Company Concord 
Management Consulting and Molot-Oruzhie, OOO. BIS is also adding these 
entities to the Entity List pursuant to Executive Order 13661.
    The three entities added to the Entity List under Executive Order 
13661 meet the criteria of Section 1, subparagraph B of the Executive 
Order 13661 because they operate in Russia's arms or related materiel 
sector. With respect to these three entities, BIS imposes a license 
requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of all 
items subject to the EAR to these entities. This license requirement 
implements an appropriate measure within the authority of the EAR to 
carry out the provisions of Executive Order 13661.

C. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13685

    Four entities are added based on activities that are described in 
Executive Order 13685 (79 FR 77357), Blocking Property of Certain 
Persons and Prohibiting Certain Transactions with Respect to the Crimea 
Region of Ukraine, issued on December 19, 2014. In order to take 
additional steps to address the Russian occupation of the Crimea region 
of Ukraine with respect to the national emergency declared in Executive 
Order 13660 of March 6, 2014, and expanded in Executive Order 13661 of 
March 16, 2014, and Executive Order 13662 of March 20, 2014, President 
Obama ordered certain additional prohibitions with respect to the 
Crimea region of Ukraine. In particular, Executive Order 13685 
prohibits the export, reexport, sale or supply, directly or indirectly, 
from the United States or by a U.S. person, wherever located, of any 
goods, services, or technology to the Crimea region of Ukraine. Under 
Section 10 of the Order, all agencies of the United States Government 
are directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to 
carry out the provisions of the Order.
    The Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control,

[[Page 28407]]

pursuant to Executive Order 13685, on behalf of the Secretary of the 
Treasury and in consultation with the Secretary of State, has 
designated the following four entities as operating in the Crimea 
region of Ukraine: IFDK, ZAO; KPSK, OOO; Oboronlogistika; and Riviera 
Sunrise Resort & Spa.
    In conjunction with these designations, BIS adds all four of these 
entities to the Entity List under this rule and imposes a license 
requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of all 
items subject to the EAR to these blocked persons. This license 
requirement implements an appropriate measure within the authority of 
the EAR to carry out the provisions of Executive Order 13685.
    For the ten entities added to the Entity List based on activities 
that are described in Executive Order 13660, 13661 or 13685, BIS 
imposes a license requirement for all items subject to the EAR and a 
license review policy of presumption of denial. The license 
requirements apply to any transaction in which items subject to the EAR 
are to be exported, reexported, or transferred (in-country) to any of 
the entities or in which such entities act as purchaser, intermediate 
consignee, ultimate consignee, or end-user. In addition, no license 
exceptions are available for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-
country) to the entities being added to the Entity List in this rule.
    The acronyms ``a.k.a.'' (also known as) and ``f.k.a.'' (formerly 
known as) are used in entries on the Entity List to help exporters, 
reexporters and transferors to better identify listed persons on the 
Entity List.
    This final rule adds the following ten entities to the Entity List:

Export Administration Act of 1979

    Although the Export Administration Act of 1979 expired on August 
20, 2001, the President, through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 
2001, 3 CFR, 2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002), as amended by Executive Order 
13637 of March 8, 2013, 78 FR 16129 (March 13, 2013) and as extended by 
the Notice of August 4, 2016, 81 FR 52587 (August 8, 2016), has 
continued the Export Administration Regulations in effect under the 
International Emergency Economic Powers Act. BIS continues to carry out 
the provisions of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as appropriate 
and to the extent permitted by law, pursuant to Executive Order 13222, 
as amended by Executive Order 13637.

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all 
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if 
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize 
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public 
health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive 
Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and 
benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting 
flexibility. This rule has been determined to be not significant for 
purposes of Executive Order 12866.
    2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is 
required to respond to nor 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. 3501 et seq.) (PRA), 
unless that collection of information displays a currently valid Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number. This regulation involves 
collections previously approved by OMB under control number 0694-0088, 
Simplified Network Application Processing System, which includes, among 
other things, license applications and carries a burden

[[Page 28408]]

estimate of 43.8 minutes for a manual or electronic submission.
    Total burden hours associated with the PRA and OMB control number 
0694-0088 are not expected to increase as a result of this rule. You 
may send comments regarding the collection of information associated 
with this rule, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to 
Jasmeet K. Seehra, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), by email to 
Jasmeet_K._Seehra@omb.eop.gov, or by fax to (202) 395-7285.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications 
as that term is defined in Executive Order 13132.
    4. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 
553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for 
public comment and a delay in effective date are inapplicable because 
this regulation involves a military or foreign affairs function of the 
United States. (See 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). BIS implementation of this 
rule is necessary to protect U.S. national security or foreign policy 
interests by preventing items from being exported, reexported, or 
transferred (in country) to the entities being added to the Entity 
List. If this rule were delayed to allow for notice and comment and a 
delay in effective date, the ten entities being added to the Entity 
List by this action would continue to be able to receive items without 
a license and to conduct activities contrary to the national security 
or foreign policy interests of the United States. In addition, 
publishing a proposed rule would give these parties notice of the U.S. 
Government's intention to place them on the Entity List and would 
create an incentive for these persons to either accelerate receiving 
items subject to the EAR to conduct activities that are contrary to the 
national security or foreign policy interests of the United States, 
and/or to take steps to set up additional aliases, change addresses, 
and other measures to try to limit the impact of the listing on the 
Entity List once a final rule was published. Further, no other law 
requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for 
public comment be given for this rule.
    5. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for 
public comment are not required to be given for this rule by 5 U.S.C. 
553, or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., are not applicable. Accordingly, 
no regulatory flexibility analysis is required and none has been 
prepared.
