Any such items not actually exported or reexported before midnight, on April 8, 2010, require a license in accordance with this regulation. ‘‘Deemed’’ exports of ‘‘technology’’ and ‘‘source code’’ removed from eligibility for export under a license exception or without a license (under the designator ‘‘NLR’’) as a result of this regulatory action may continue to be made under the previously available license exception or without a license (NLR) before April 8, 2010. Beginning at midnight on April 8, 2010, such ‘‘technology’’ and ‘‘source code’’ may no longer be released, without a license, to a foreign national subject to the ‘‘deemed’’ export controls in the EAR when a license would be required to the home country of the foreign national in accordance with this regulation. Rulemaking Requirements 1. This rule has been determined to be significant for purposes of Executive Order 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. 3501 et seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of information displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number. This rule contains a collection of information subject to the requirements of the PRA. This collection has been approved by OMB under Control Number 0694–0088 (Multi-Purpose Application), which carries a burden hour estimate of 58 minutes to prepare and submit form BIS–748. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to Jasmeet Seehra, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and to the Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, as indicated in the ADDRESSES section of this rule. 3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications as that VerDate Nov<24>2008 13:00 Feb 19, 2010 Jkt 220001 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 and foreign affairs function of the United States (Sec. 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 final rule. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are not required to be given for this rule under 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. 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. SUMMARY: We are revising our regulations to allow a representative payee who will no longer be serving in that capacity to transfer accumulated benefit payments and interest directly to a beneficiary if we determine that it VerDate Nov<24>2008 13:00 Feb 19, 2010 Jkt 220001 would be in the best interest of the beneficiary. This change will give us more flexibility in deciding how conserved funds should be handled in these circumstances. The change will also reduce or eliminate delays in the delivery of conserved funds to some beneficiaries. DATES: This final rule will be effective March 24, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Electronic Version The electronic file of this document is available on the date of publication in the Federal Register at https:// www.gpoaccess.gov/fr/. Background Our representative payment regulations are in Subpart U of part 404 and subpart F of part 416. In certain cases, we will appoint a representative payee to receive benefit payments on behalf of a beneficiary. Generally, we appoint a representative payee if we have determined that the beneficiary is not able to manage his or her own benefits or direct the management of benefit payments in his or her interest. The payee must use the payments only for the beneficiary’s use and benefit. The payee must conserve or invest for the beneficiary any funds remaining after paying for the beneficiary’s current needs. If a payee is no longer going to serve in that capacity, our regulations require the payee to return conserved funds to us or transfer them to a successor payee, as we will specify. The payee is not permitted to transfer these conserved funds to a beneficiary directly. 20 CFR 404.2060 and 416.660. The payee’s inability to transfer funds directly to a beneficiary can cause difficulty for both the beneficiary and the representative payee. When we determine that a payee is no longer needed because the beneficiary has become capable of managing his or her own benefits, this two-step process delays our payment of the conserved funds to the beneficiary. Our current regulatory process is particularly problematic for those beneficiaries who make the transition out of foster care and for their payees. PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 7551 These beneficiaries might need immediate access to the conserved funds to pay for rent or other necessities. Additionally, at least one State requires State agency representative payees for beneficiaries in foster care to turn over all conserved funds directly to the beneficiary when he or she transitions out of foster care. Explanation of Changes We are revising §§ 404.2060 and 416.660 of our regulations to permit a payee to transfer conserved funds to a beneficiary if we so specify. The change will give us the discretion to authorize a payee-to-beneficiary transfer of conserved funds and make the representative payment process more efficient. Allowing direct transfer will conserve administrative resources and provide faster access to beneficiaries who have become capable of managing their own benefits. Public Comments On October 14, 2009, we published a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) in the Federal Register and provided a 60-day comment period. 74 FR 52706. We received one letter with comments. We carefully considered the comments in publishing this final rule. Comment: The commenter is an employee of another federal agency who deals with our beneficiaries and payment centers. The commenter supports the changes and believes the changes will benefit us and our beneficiaries. The commenter further notes that ‘‘it is essential that funds still be available to the beneficiary especially in economic recession periods.’’ The commenter asks how the changes will affect current rules on reissuing benefits if the payee misused funds, how the replaced funds will be handled during the transfer, and whether there is an order of importance in selecting the new payee. Response: We appreciate the commenter’s support. The changes will allow a representative payee who will no longer be serving in that capacity to transfer accumulated benefit payments and interest directly to a beneficiary if we direct the representative payee to do so. The changes will not otherwise affect our current rules on reissuing benefits if a payee misused funds, how the replaced benefits will be handled, or how we choose a payee.
