Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 84 / Thursday, May 1, 2014 / Rules and Regulations
(c) Applicability
This AD applies to SOCATA TBM 700
airplanes, manufacturer serial numbers
(MSN) 1 through 98, 100 through 156, and
158 through 161, certificated in any category.
(d) Subject
Air Transport Association of America
(ATA) Code 55: Stabilizers.
(e) Reason
This AD was prompted by mandatory
continuing airworthiness information (MCAI)
originated by an aviation authority of another
country to identify and correct an unsafe
condition on an aviation product. The MCAI
describes the unsafe condition as cracks on
the outboard hinge fittings. We are issuing
this AD to require the use of new service
information issued by DAHER–SOCATA to
eliminate the stress on the outboard hinge
fittings, which is causing the cracks. If this
condition is not prevented, the outboard
hinge fittings could fail causing reduced
structural integrity of the horizontal
stabilizer, which could result in reduced
control.
(f) Actions and Compliance
Unless already done, within the next 100
hours time-in-service after June 5, 2014 (the
effective date of this AD) or within the next
12 months after June 5, 2014 (the effective
date of this AD), whichever occurs first,
install shims on the outboard hinge fittings
of the horizontal stabilizer. Do the
modification following the Accomplishment
Instructions in DAHER–SOCATA TBM
Aircraft Mandatory Service Bulletin SB 70–
080, Amendment 3, dated September 2013.
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with RULES
(g) Credit for Actions Done Following
Previous Service Information

required in paragraph (f) of this AD if done
before June 5, 2014 (the effective date of this
AD), following DAHER–SOCATA TBM
Aircraft Mandatory Service Bulletin SB 70–
080, Amendment 2, dated August 2012.
(h) Other FAA AD Provisions
The following provisions also apply to this
AD:
(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance
(AMOCs): The Manager, Standards Office,
FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs
for this AD, if requested using the procedures

to which the AMOC applies, notify your
appropriate principal inspector (PI) in the
FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO),
or lacking a PI, your local FSDO.
(2) Airworthy Product: For any requirement
in this AD to obtain corrective actions from
a manufacturer or other source, use these
actions if they are FAA-approved. Corrective
actions are considered FAA-approved if they

been determined by the U.S.
Government to be acting contrary to the
national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States. These
persons will be listed on the Entity List

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to
Part 744) notifies the public about
entities that have engaged in activities
that could result in an increased risk of
the diversion of exported, reexported or
transferred (in-country) items to
weapons of mass destruction (WMD)
programs. Since its initial publication,
grounds for inclusion on the Entity List
have expanded to include activities
sanctioned by the State Department and
activities contrary to U.S. national
security or foreign policy interests,
including terrorism and export control
violations involving abuse of human
rights. Certain exports, reexports, and
transfers (in-country) to entities
identified on the Entity List require
licenses from BIS and are usually
subject to a policy of denial. The
availability of license exceptions in
such transactions is very limited. The
license review policy for each entity is
identified in the license review policy
column on the Entity List and the
availability of license exceptions is
noted in the Federal Register notices
adding 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) of
the EAR.
The End-User Review Committee
(ERC), composed of representatives of
the Departments of Commerce (Chair),
State, Defense, Energy and, where
appropriate, the Treasury, makes all
decisions regarding additions to,
removals from, or other modifications to
E:\FR\FM\01MYR1.SGM
01MYR1
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 84 / Thursday, May 1, 2014 / Rules and Regulations
the Entity List. The ERC makes all
decisions to add an entry to the Entity
List by majority vote and all decisions
to remove or modify an entry by
unanimous vote. The Departments
represented on the ERC approved these
changes to the Entity List.

ERC Entity List Decisions
Additions to the Entity List
This rule implements the decision of
the ERC to add thirteen persons under
fourteen entries to the Entity List 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 thirteen persons added to the
Entity List consist of one person in
Cyprus, one person in Luxembourg and
twelve persons in Russia.
The ERC reviewed § 744.11(b)
(Criteria for revising the Entity List) in
making the determination to add these
thirteen persons to the Entity List.
Under that paragraph, 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 thirteen persons being added to
the Entity List have been determined by
the ERC to be involved in activities that
are contrary to the national security or
foreign policy interests of the United
States. The U.S. Government has
determined that the Russian
Federation’s actions—including the
deployment of Russian Federation
military and intelligence forces in the
Crimea area of Ukraine (Occupied
Crimea) and Eastern Ukraine—are in
clear violation of Ukrainian sovereignty
and territorial integrity and a breach of
international law, including Russia’s
obligations under the United Nations
Charter and under its 1997 military
basing agreement with Ukraine. They
are also inconsistent with the 1994
Budapest Memorandum, under which,
in response to certain commitments by
Ukraine, Russia, the United States and
the United Kingdom, the signatories
consecrated the sovereignty and
territorial integrity of Ukraine as an
independent state by applying the
principles of territorial integrity and
nonintervention found in the Helsinki
Final Act, the accords signed by the
Conference on Security and Cooperation
in Europe of 1975. The Russian
Federation’s actions also conflict with
the Vienna Document of 1979, as
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:24 Apr 30, 2014
Jkt 232001
adopted by the members of the
Organization for Security and
Cooperation in Europe (of which the
Russian Federation is a member), which
includes a provision for exchange and
verification of military information
among membership, including but not
limited to prior notification of military
activities such as major troop exercises.
On March 6, 2014, the President of
the United States issued Executive
Order 13660 (79 FR 13491), Blocking
Property of Certain Persons Contributing
to the Situation in Ukraine, finding that
the actions and policies of persons who
have asserted governmental authority in
Occupied 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. The Executive Order
also declares a national emergency to
deal with that threat.
On March 16, 2014, the President of
the United States issued Executive
Order 13661 (79 FR 15533), Blocking
Property of Additional Persons
Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine.
That order expanded the scope of the
national emergency declared in
Executive Order 13660, finding that the
actions and policies of the Government
of the Russian Federation with respect
to Ukraine—including the recent
deployment of Russian Federation
military forces in Occupied Crimea—
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.
Specifically, 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
hereafter 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 who have 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. Under Section 8 of
the order, all agencies of the United
PO 00000
Frm 00033
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
24559
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,
pursuant to Executive Order 13661, has
designated the thirteen persons
identified below. In conjunction with
that designation, the Department of
Commerce imposes a license
requirement for exports, reexports, or
transfers (in-country) 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
13661. The entities being added to the
Entity List under this rule, Stroytransgaz
Holding, Volga Group, Aquanika, Avia
Group LLC, Avia Group Nord LLC, CJSC
Zest, Sakhatrans LLC, Stroytransgaz
Group, Stroytransgaz LLC, Stroytransgaz
OJSC, Stroytransgaz-M LLC,
Stroygazmontazh, and Transoil are
owned or controlled by, directly or
indirectly, persons whose property and
interests in property were blocked by
the Department of the Treasury’s Office
of Foreign Assets Control on March 20,
2014 pursuant to Executive Order
13661. One of the persons being added
to the Entity List under this rule, Volga
Group, has addresses in both
Luxembourg and Russia. The additional
address accounts for the fourteenth
entry for the thirteen persons being
added to the Entity List in this rule.
Pursuant to § 744.11 of the EAR, the
conduct of these thirteen persons raises
sufficient concern that prior review of
exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of items subject to the EAR
involving these persons, and the
possible imposition of license
conditions or license denials on
shipments to these persons, will
enhance BIS’s ability to protect the
foreign policy and national security
interests of the United States.
For the thirteen persons added to the
Entity List, there is 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 are to be exported,
reexported, or transferred (in-country) to
any of the persons or in which such
persons act as purchaser, intermediate
consignee, ultimate consignee, or enduser. In addition, no license exceptions
are available for exports, reexports, or
transfers (in-country) to the persons
being added to the Entity List in this
rule.
This final rule adds the following
thirteen persons under fourteen entries
to the Entity List:

(NLR) as a result of this regulatory
action that were en route aboard a
carrier to a port of export or reexport, on

for export or reexport to a foreign

Executive Order 13637 of March 8,

as extended by the Notice of August 8,
2013, 78, 2013, 78 FR 49107 (August 12,
2013), 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, 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
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 implements this
E:\FR\FM\01MYR1.SGM
01MYR1
24561
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 84 / Thursday, May 1, 2014 / Rules and Regulations
rule to protect U.S. national security or
foreign policy interests by preventing
items from being exported, reexported,
or transferred (in country) to the persons
being added to the Entity List. If this
rule were delayed to allow for notice
and comment and a delay in effective
date, then 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.
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.

Background
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to
Part 744) notifies the public about
entities that have engaged in activities
that could result in an increased risk of
the diversion of exported, reexported or
transferred (in-country) items to
weapons of mass destruction (WMD)
programs. Since its initial publication,
grounds for inclusion on the Entity List
have expanded to include activities
sanctioned by the State Department and
activities contrary to U.S. national
security or foreign policy interests,
including terrorism and export control
violations involving abuse of human
rights. Certain exports, reexports, and
transfers (in-country) to entities
identified on the Entity List require
licenses from BIS and are usually
subject to a policy of denial. The
availability of license exceptions in
such transactions is very limited. The
license review policy for each entity is
identified in the license review policy
column on the Entity List and the
availability of license exceptions is
noted in the Federal Register notices
adding persons to the Entity List. BIS

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744) notifies the public
about entities that have engaged in activities that could result in an
increased risk of the diversion of exported, reexported or transferred
(in-country) items to weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs. Since
its initial publication, grounds for inclusion on the Entity List have
expanded to include activities sanctioned by the State Department and
activities contrary to U.S. national security or foreign policy
interests, including terrorism and export control violations involving
abuse of human rights. Certain exports, reexports, and transfers (in-
country) to entities identified on the Entity List require licenses
from BIS and are usually subject to a policy of denial. The
availability of license exceptions in such transactions is very
limited. The license review policy for each entity is identified in the
license review policy column on the Entity List and the availability of
license exceptions is noted in the Federal Register notices adding
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) of the EAR.
The End-User Review Committee (ERC), composed of representatives of
the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy and, where
appropriate, the Treasury, makes all decisions regarding additions to,
removals from, or other modifications to
[[Page 24559]]
the Entity List. The ERC makes all decisions to add an entry to the
Entity List by majority vote and all decisions to remove or modify an
entry by unanimous vote. The Departments represented on the ERC
approved these changes to the Entity List.
ERC Entity List Decisions
Additions to the Entity List
This rule implements the decision of the ERC to add thirteen
persons under fourteen entries to the Entity List 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 thirteen persons added to the Entity List consist of
one person in Cyprus, one person in Luxembourg and twelve persons in
Russia.
The ERC reviewed Sec. 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity
List) in making the determination to add these thirteen persons to the
Entity List. Under that paragraph, 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 thirteen persons being added to the Entity List have been
determined by the ERC to be involved in activities that are contrary to
the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States.
The U.S. Government has determined that the Russian Federation's
actions--including the deployment of Russian Federation military and
intelligence forces in the Crimea area of Ukraine (Occupied Crimea) and
Eastern Ukraine--are in clear violation of Ukrainian sovereignty and
territorial integrity and a breach of international law, including
Russia's obligations under the United Nations Charter and under its
1997 military basing agreement with Ukraine. They are also inconsistent
with the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, under which, in response to certain
commitments by Ukraine, Russia, the United States and the United
Kingdom, the signatories consecrated the sovereignty and territorial
integrity of Ukraine as an independent state by applying the principles
of territorial integrity and nonintervention found in the Helsinki
Final Act, the accords signed by the Conference on Security and
Cooperation in Europe of 1975. The Russian Federation's actions also
conflict with the Vienna Document of 1979, as adopted by the members of
the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (of which the
Russian Federation is a member), which includes a provision for
exchange and verification of military information among membership,
including but not limited to prior notification of military activities
such as major troop exercises.
On March 6, 2014, the President of the United States issued
Executive Order 13660 (79 FR 13491), Blocking Property of Certain
Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, finding that the
actions and policies of persons who have asserted governmental
authority in Occupied 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. The
Executive Order also declares a national emergency to deal with that
threat.
On March 16, 2014, the President of the United States issued
Executive Order 13661 (79 FR 15533), Blocking Property of Additional
Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine. That order expanded
the scope of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660,
finding that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian
Federation with respect to Ukraine--including the recent deployment of
Russian Federation military forces in Occupied Crimea--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.
Specifically, 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 hereafter 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
who have 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. 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, pursuant to Executive Order 13661,
has designated the thirteen persons identified below. In conjunction
with that designation, the Department of Commerce imposes a license
requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) 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 13661. The entities being added to the Entity List
under this rule, Stroytransgaz Holding, Volga Group, Aquanika, Avia
Group LLC, Avia Group Nord LLC, CJSC Zest, Sakhatrans LLC,
Stroytransgaz Group, Stroytransgaz LLC, Stroytransgaz OJSC,
Stroytransgaz-M LLC, Stroygazmontazh, and Transoil are owned or
controlled by, directly or indirectly, persons whose property and
interests in property were blocked by the Department of the Treasury's
Office of Foreign Assets Control on March 20, 2014 pursuant to
Executive Order 13661. One of the persons being added to the Entity
List under this rule, Volga Group, has addresses in both Luxembourg and
Russia. The additional address accounts for the fourteenth entry for
the thirteen persons being added to the Entity List in this rule.
Pursuant to Sec. 744.11 of the EAR, the conduct of these thirteen
persons raises sufficient concern that prior review of exports,
reexports, or transfers (in-country) of items subject to the EAR
involving these persons, and the possible imposition of license
conditions or license denials on shipments to these persons, will
enhance BIS's ability to protect the foreign policy and national
security interests of the United States.
For the thirteen persons added to the Entity List, there is 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 are to be exported, reexported, or
transferred (in-country) to any of the persons or in which such persons
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 persons being added to the
Entity List in this rule.
This final rule adds the following thirteen persons under fourteen
entries to the Entity List:

Savings Clause
Shipments of items removed from eligibility for a License Exception
or export or reexport without a license (NLR) as a result of this
regulatory action that were en route aboard a carrier to a port of
export or reexport, on May 1, 2014, pursuant to actual orders for
export or reexport to a foreign destination, may proceed to that
destination under the previous eligibility for a License Exception or
export or reexport without a license (NLR).
Export Administration Act
Although the Export Administration Act 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 8, 2013, 78, 2013, 78 FR 49107 (August 12, 2013), 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, 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 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 implements this
[[Page 24561]]
rule to protect U.S. national security or foreign policy interests by
preventing items from being exported, reexported, or transferred (in
country) to the persons being added to the Entity List. If this rule
were delayed to allow for notice and comment and a delay in effective
date, then 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. 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.
