Effects of This Rule
On July 18, 2005, President
George W. Bush and Indian Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh announced
the completion of the Next Steps in
Strategic Partnership (NSSP) with India.
The proposed cooperation outlined in
the NSSP has progressed through a
series of reciprocal steps that built on
one another, including steps related to
creating the appropriate environment
for successful high-technology
commerce. This rule implements two
steps the United States has agreed to
take as part of the final phase of NSSP,
namely, the removal of license
requirements for exports and reexports
of items controlled unilaterally by the
United States for nuclear
nonproliferation reasons to India and
the removal of six Indian entities from
the Entity List.
DATES: This rule is effective August 30,
2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Background
In November 2001, the Indian Prime
Minister and the President of the United
States committed India and the United
States to a strategic partnership. Since
then, the two countries have
significantly strengthened bilateral
cooperation and commerce in space,
civil nuclear energy, and dual-use
technology. On January 12, 2004, the
two leaders announced the NSSP with
VerDate Aug<18>2005
15:13 Aug 29, 2005
Jkt 205001
the aim of implementing a shared vision
to expand cooperation, deepening the
ties of commerce and friendship
between the two nations, and increasing
stability in Asia and beyond.
The proposed cooperation has
progressed through a series of reciprocal
steps that built on one another. It
included expanded engagement on
nuclear regulatory and safety issues and
missile defense, ways to enhance
cooperation regarding peaceful uses of
space technology, and steps to create the
appropriate environment for successful
high-technology commerce. In bringing
the NSSP to completion, the United
States and India resolve to transform
their relationship by establishing a
global partnership, with the mutual
commitment to promoting stability,
democracy, prosperity, and peace
throughout the world. This rule
implements revisions to the Export
Administration Regulations (EAR) as
part of the completion of the NSSP.
This rule removes export and reexport
license requirements for items
controlled unilaterally by the United
States for nuclear nonproliferation
reasons (i.e., items that are not subject
to the Nuclear Suppliers Group regime).
The rule accomplishes this change by
revising § 742.3(a)(2) to except India
from this license requirement and by
removing the ‘‘X’’ from the box at the
intersection of the row for India and the
column labeled NP 2 of the Commerce
Country Chart (Supplement No. 1 to
Part 738 of the EAR). Removal of export
license requirements for these items is
expected to reduce the number of
license applications for exports and
reexports to India.
This rule also removes six Indian
entities from the Entity List
(Supplement No. 4 to Part 744 of the
EAR). Three of these entities are
Department of Atomic Energy entities,
‘‘Tarapur (TAPS 1 & 2),’’ ‘‘Rajasthan
(RAPS 1& 2),’’ and ‘‘Kudankulam (1 &
2).’’ TAPS 1 & 2 and RAPS 1 & 2 are
under International Atomic Energy
Agency (IAEA) safeguards. Kudankulam
1 & 2 is under construction. The
Government of India and the IAEA have
agreed that this facility will be subject
to IAEA safeguards upon completion.
The other three entities are Indian Space
Research Organization (ISRO)
subordinate entities, specifically, ‘‘ISRO
Telemetry, Tracking and Command
Network (ISTRAC),’’ ‘‘ISRO Inertial
Systems Unit (IISU),
Thiruvananthapuram,’’ and ‘‘Space
Applications Center (SAC),
Ahmadabad.’’

Sfmt 4700

Neither the removal of the unilateral
nuclear nonproliferation license
requirement nor the removal of the
entities from the Entity List by this rule
removes any other license requirements
imposed by the EAR. Among others, the
end use license requirements of part
744, including the license requirements
for the nuclear end uses specified in
§§ 744.2, 744.5 and 744.6, and missile
end use license requirements specified
in §§ 744.3 and 744.6, continue to
apply. This rule also does not affect
license requirements related to entities
that remain on the Entity List. For
certain of those entities, a license is
required for all items subject to the EAR;
for others, a license is required for items
with a classification other than (1)
EAR99 or (2) where the third through
fifth digits of the ECCN are ‘‘999.’’ BIS
strongly urges parties to consult
Supplement No. 3 to part 732 of the
EAR, ‘‘BIS’s ‘‘Know Your Customer’’
Guidance and Red Flags,’’ when
exporting or reexporting items to India.
Although the Export Administration
Act of 1979 (EAA), as amended, expired
on August 20, 2001, Executive Order
13222 of August 17, 2001 (3 CFR, 2001
Comp., p. 783 (2002)) as extended by
the Notice of August 2, 2005, 70 FR
45273 (August 5, 2005), continues the
EAR in effect under the International
Emergency Economic Powers Act
(IEEPA).
Rulemaking Requirements
1. 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 the OMB under control
numbers 0694–0088, ‘‘Multi-Purpose
Application,’’ which carries a burden
hour estimate of 58 minutes to prepare
and submit form BIS–748.
Miscellaneous and recordkeeping
activities account for 12 minutes per
submission. Total burden hours
associated with the Paperwork
Reduction Act and Office and
Management and Budget control
number 0694–0088 are expected to
decrease because of this regulation. BIS
anticipates that this rule will reduce the
number of license applications for
E:\FR\FM\30AUR1.SGM
30AUR1
51252
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 167 / Tuesday, August 30, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
exports and reexports to India by about
150 to 200 annually.
Send comments regarding these
burden estimates or any other aspect of
this collection of information, including
suggestions for reducing the burden, to
David Rostker, OMB Desk Officer, by email at david_rostker@omb.eop.gov or
by fax to (202) 395–7285; and to the
Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of
Industry and Security, Department of
Commerce, P.O. Box 273, Washington,
DC 20044.
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
participation, 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)). Further, no other
law requires that a notice of proposed
rulemaking and an opportunity for
public comment be given for this rule.
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.

Removal of License Requirements for Exports and Reexports to
India of Items Controlled Unilaterally for Nuclear Nonproliferation
Reasons and Removal of Certain Indian Entities From the Entity List
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On July 18, 2005, President George W. Bush and Indian Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh announced the completion of the Next Steps in
Strategic Partnership (NSSP) with India. The proposed cooperation
outlined in the NSSP has progressed through a series of reciprocal
steps that built on one another, including steps related to creating
the appropriate environment for successful high-technology commerce.
This rule implements two steps the United States has agreed to take as
part of the final phase of NSSP, namely, the removal of license
requirements for exports and reexports of items controlled unilaterally
by the United States for nuclear nonproliferation reasons to India and
the removal of six Indian entities from the Entity List.
DATES: This rule is effective August 30, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Eileen M. Albanese, Office of Exporter
Services, Bureau of Industry and Security, Telephone: (202) 482-0436.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In November 2001, the Indian Prime Minister and the President of
the United States committed India and the United States to a strategic
partnership. Since then, the two countries have significantly
strengthened bilateral cooperation and commerce in space, civil nuclear
energy, and dual-use technology. On January 12, 2004, the two leaders
announced the NSSP with the aim of implementing a shared vision to
expand cooperation, deepening the ties of commerce and friendship
between the two nations, and increasing stability in Asia and beyond.
The proposed cooperation has progressed through a series of
reciprocal steps that built on one another. It included expanded
engagement on nuclear regulatory and safety issues and missile defense,
ways to enhance cooperation regarding peaceful uses of space
technology, and steps to create the appropriate environment for
successful high-technology commerce. In bringing the NSSP to
completion, the United States and India resolve to transform their
relationship by establishing a global partnership, with the mutual
commitment to promoting stability, democracy, prosperity, and peace
throughout the world. This rule implements revisions to the Export
Administration Regulations (EAR) as part of the completion of the NSSP.
Effects of This Rule
This rule removes export and reexport license requirements for
items controlled unilaterally by the United States for nuclear
nonproliferation reasons (i.e., items that are not subject to the
Nuclear Suppliers Group regime). The rule accomplishes this change by
revising Sec. 742.3(a)(2) to except India from this license
requirement and by removing the ``X'' from the box at the intersection
of the row for India and the column labeled NP 2 of the Commerce
Country Chart (Supplement No. 1 to Part 738 of the EAR). Removal of
export license requirements for these items is expected to reduce the
number of license applications for exports and reexports to India.
This rule also removes six Indian entities from the Entity List
(Supplement No. 4 to Part 744 of the EAR). Three of these entities are
Department of Atomic Energy entities, ``Tarapur (TAPS 1 & 2),''
``Rajasthan (RAPS 1& 2),'' and ``Kudankulam (1 & 2).'' TAPS 1 & 2 and
RAPS 1 & 2 are under International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
safeguards. Kudankulam 1 & 2 is under construction. The Government of
India and the IAEA have agreed that this facility will be subject to
IAEA safeguards upon completion. The other three entities are Indian
Space Research Organization (ISRO) subordinate entities, specifically,
``ISRO Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC),'' ``ISRO
Inertial Systems Unit (IISU), Thiruvananthapuram,'' and ``Space
Applications Center (SAC), Ahmadabad.''
Neither the removal of the unilateral nuclear nonproliferation
license requirement nor the removal of the entities from the Entity
List by this rule removes any other license requirements imposed by the
EAR. Among others, the end use license requirements of part 744,
including the license requirements for the nuclear end uses specified
in Sec. Sec. 744.2, 744.5 and 744.6, and missile end use license
requirements specified in Sec. Sec. 744.3 and 744.6, continue to
apply. This rule also does not affect license requirements related to
entities that remain on the Entity List. For certain of those entities,
a license is required for all items subject to the EAR; for others, a
license is required for items with a classification other than (1)
EAR99 or (2) where the third through fifth digits of the ECCN are
``999.'' BIS strongly urges parties to consult Supplement No. 3 to part
732 of the EAR, ``BIS's ``Know Your Customer'' Guidance and Red
Flags,'' when exporting or reexporting items to India.
Although the Export Administration Act of 1979 (EAA), as amended,
expired on August 20, 2001, Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001 (3
CFR, 2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002)) as extended by the Notice of August 2,
2005, 70 FR 45273 (August 5, 2005), continues the EAR in effect under
the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).
Rulemaking Requirements
1. 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 the OMB under control numbers 0694-
0088, ``Multi-Purpose Application,'' which carries a burden hour
estimate of 58 minutes to prepare and submit form BIS-748.
Miscellaneous and recordkeeping activities account for 12 minutes per
submission. Total burden hours associated with the Paperwork Reduction
Act and Office and Management and Budget control number 0694-0088 are
expected to decrease because of this regulation. BIS anticipates that
this rule will reduce the number of license applications for
[[Page 51252]]
exports and reexports to India by about 150 to 200 annually.
Send comments regarding these burden estimates or any other aspect
of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing
the burden, to David Rostker, OMB Desk Officer, by e-mail at david_
rostker@omb.eop.gov or by fax to (202) 395-7285; and to the Regulatory
Policy Division, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of
Commerce, P.O. Box 273, Washington, DC 20044.
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 participation, 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)). Further, no other law
requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for
public comment be given for this rule. 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.
