In addition, this rule updates the Paperwork Collections List to delete information collections that are no longer in effect and to add new information collections that have been approved. Although the Export Administration Act expired on August 20, 2001, Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001 (66 FR 44025, August 22, 2001), extended by the Notice of August 6, 2004, 69 FR 48763 (August 10, 2004), continues the EAR in effect under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Rulemaking Requirements SUMMARY: This final rule amends the Export Administration Regulations to update a fax number and to update the list of information collections. The Paperwork Collection List identifies the control numbers assigned to information collection requirements under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by the Office of Management and Budget pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act. This action makes editorial corrections and updates and is not intended to have a substantive effect on the rights or obligations of the public. DATES: Bureau of Industry and Security, Telephone: (202) 482–2440. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 1. This final rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of E.O. 12866. 2. Paperwork Reduction Act: 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. 3501 et seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of information displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number. This rule does not affect or include any collections of information. 3. This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications as that term is defined under E.O. 13132. 4. The Department finds that there is good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) to waive the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking and the opportunity for public participation. This rule makes changes to part 730 of the EAR that are purely administrative and do not affect the rights or obligations of the public. The information in part 730 is general and not regulatory. The controlling regulatory language is the language of succeeding parts of the EAR and of any other law or regulation referred to or PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 applicable. This rule makes editorial corrections to update the contact information of the offices in the Bureau of Industry and Security, and updates the Paperwork Collections List. Because these revisions are not substantive changes to the EAR, it is unnecessary to provide notice and opportunity for public comment. In addition, because this is not a substantive rule, the delay in effective date pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) is not applicable. Further, no other law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment be given for this final rule. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are not required to be given for this rule under the Administrative Procedure Act or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable. Therefore, this regulation is issued in final form. Although there is no formal comment period, public comments on this regulation are welcome on a continuing basis.

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: SUMMARY: In this rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to implement further changes to export and reexport controls with respect to Libya. The majority of changes are based on comments submitted to BIS as requested in an earlier interim rule. This rule also corrects an inadvertent error in that interim rule. DATES: This rule is effective March 22, 2005. ADDRESSES: Although comments are not formally requested, comments on this rule may be sent to Sheila Quarterman, Office of Exporter Services, Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, P.O.

Box 273, Washington, DC 20044; Telephone: (202) 482–4252, or E-mail: jroberts@bis.doc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On April 29, 2004, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) published VerDate jul<14>2003 15:09 Mar 21, 2005 Jkt 205001 an interim rule with request for comments in the Federal Register (69 FR 23626). That rule amended the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to implement the President’s April 23, 2004 decision to modify the United States’ sanctions against Libya, in response to Libya’s continuing efforts to dismantle its weapons of mass destruction and missile programs, and its renunciation of terrorism. On April 23, 2004, the President announced the termination of the application of the Iran and Libya Sanctions Act (ILSA) with respect to Libya. On April 29, 2004, the Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), modified its sanctions imposed on U.S. firms and individuals under the authority of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to allow the resumption of most commercial activities, financial transactions, and investments between the United States and Libya. Consequently, OFAC issued a General License (31 CFR 550.575) which transferred licensing jurisdiction for the export and reexport of items subject to the EAR back to the Department of Commerce. The BIS April 29, 2004 interim rule set forth the new license requirements and licensing policy for exports and reexports to Libya under BIS’s licensing responsibility. That rule also implemented the transfer to BIS from OFAC of the licensing jurisdiction for exports to Libya of most items subject to the EAR. Changes From April 29 Interim Rule Based on public comments received in response to the April 29, 2004 interim rule, BIS is establishing a review policy and licensing procedure for activities involving items subject to the EAR that may have been illegally exported or reexported to Libya before the comprehensive embargo on Libya ended (‘‘installed base’’ items). BIS is also modifying the licensing policy for some commercial charges classified under Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 1C992. In addition to changes made in response to public comments, BIS is making a number of changes, including revision of License Exception Aircraft and Vessels (AVS) to permit vessels to make temporary sojourns to Libya PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 without a license. BIS is also modifying the language in License Exception Temporary Imports, Exports and Reexports (TMP) to ensure clarity regarding certain software. Additionally, BIS is modifying the licensing policy for the export or reexport of U.S.-origin civil aircraft and helicopters subject to the EAR to Libya to case-by-case review. In this rule, BIS also is clarifying that portable electric power generators, controlled under ECCN 2A994, and related software and technology, controlled under ECCNs 2D994 and 2E994, require a license for export or reexport to Libya for anti-terrorism reasons. Further, BIS is modifying ECCN 8A992 to clarify that it addresses vessels in addition to submersible items. Finally, BIS is correcting an inadvertent error in the April 29 interim rule, which omitted an ‘‘X’’ in the NP:2 column for Libya on the Commerce Country Chart, Supplement 1 to Part 738 of the EAR. Comments BIS received four comments on the April 29 interim rule, as summarized below. 1. Anti-Terrorism Controls. Two respondents requested that BIS remove unilateral anti-terrorism (AT) controls imposed on Libya. Respondents offered the following points in support of their request: a. The United States has repeatedly stated that the Libyan Government has taken, and continues to take, extraordinary and concrete steps to renounce terrorism and all its means. The retention of AT controls is inconsistent with the United States’ new Libya policy. b. AT-controlled items do not contribute to the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. c. Unilateral controls are ineffective because similar items are commonly available from other countries which permit their export to Libya. d. Delays caused by licensing requirements disadvantage U.S. industry. 2. Installed base. Two respondents also requested that BIS provide relief from General Prohibition Ten of Part 736 of the EAR enabling exporters to make use of, repair, maintain, service or upgrade U.S.-origin controlled items that may have been exported or E:\FR\FM\22MRR1.SGM 22MRR1

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This final rule amends the Export Administration Regulations 
to update a fax number and to update the list of information 
collections. The Paperwork Collection List identifies the control 
numbers assigned to information collection requirements under the 
Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by the Office of Management and 
Budget pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act. This action makes 
editorial corrections and updates and is not intended to have a 
substantive effect on the rights or obligations of the public.

DATES: This rule is effective March 22, 2005.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by RIN 0694-AD40, by any 
of the following methods:
     E-mail: scook@bis.doc.gov. Include ``RIN 0694-AD40'' in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    This rule amends section 730.8 of the EAR by correcting the fax 
number of the Outreach & Exporter Services Division of the Bureau of 
Industry and Security to (202) 482-2927.
    In addition, this rule updates the Paperwork Collections List to 
delete information collections that are no longer in effect and to add 
new information collections that have been approved.
    Although the Export Administration Act expired on August 20, 2001, 
Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001 (66 FR 44025, August 22, 
2001), extended by the Notice of August 6, 2004, 69 FR 48763 (August 
10, 2004), continues the EAR in effect under the International 
Emergency Economic Powers Act.

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. This final rule has been determined to be not significant for 
purposes of E.O. 12866.
    2. Paperwork Reduction Act: 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. 3501 et seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of 
information displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) Control Number. This rule does not affect or include any 
collections of information.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications 
as that term is defined under E.O. 13132.
    4. The Department finds that there is good cause under 5 U.S.C. 
553(b)(B) to waive the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act 
(5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking and the 
opportunity for public participation. This rule makes changes to part 
730 of the EAR that are purely administrative and do not affect the 
rights or obligations of the public. The information in part 730 is 
general and not regulatory. The controlling regulatory language is the 
language of succeeding parts of the EAR and of any other law or 
regulation referred to or applicable. This rule makes editorial 
corrections to update the contact information of the offices in the 
Bureau of Industry and Security, and updates the Paperwork Collections 
List.
    Because these revisions are not substantive changes to the EAR, it 
is unnecessary to provide notice and opportunity for public comment. In 
addition, because this is not a substantive rule, the delay in 
effective date pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) is not applicable. 
Further, no other law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and 
an opportunity for public comment be given for this final rule. Because 
a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment 
are not required to be given for this rule under the Administrative 
Procedure Act or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable.
    Therefore, this regulation is issued in final form. Although there 
is no formal comment period, public comments on this regulation are 
welcome on a continuing basis. Please refer to the ADDRESSES section 
cited above for comment submission.
