SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Bureau of Industry and Security
(BIS) publishes this final rule to make
corrections to certain provisions of the
Export Administration Regulations that
were amended by two final rules
appearing in the Federal Register on
June 5, 2014 (79 FR 32612) and on May
13, 2014 (79 FR 27417). These two rules
were drafted and finalized
simultaneously, however they
separately revised some of the same
provisions of the Export Administration
Regulations and certain language was
either removed or changed
inadvertently. This final rule corrects
those provisions to accurately reflect the
revisions made by both rules. These
corrections include reinserting two
sentences inadvertently removed
because of an incorrect instruction in
the June 5 rule, and reinserting a phrase
inadvertently removed by the May 13
rule, which did not reflect a correction
made in a final rule published on
October 3, 2013 (78 FR 61745).

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, distribute 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 final rule, which is a
consolidation of corrections and
clarifications of final rules published in
2013 and 2014, has been determined to
be not significant for purposes of
Executive Order 12866.

2. The Department of Commerce finds
that there is good cause under 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(B) to waive the provisions of the
Administrative Procedure Act otherwise
requiring prior notice and the
opportunity for public comment
because they are unnecessary. The
revisions made by this rule are technical
corrections to provisions that have
already been subject to public notice
and the opportunity to comment. These
revisions in this rule are important to
get in place as soon as possible to avoid
confusion by the public regarding the
intent and meaning of recent changes to
the EAR. In addition, BIS finds good
cause to waive the 30-day delay in
effectiveness under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3).
As mentioned previously, the revisions
made by this rule are technical
corrections that need to be in place as
soon as possible to avoid confusion by
the public regarding the intent and
meaning of recent changes to the EAR.
3. Because a notice of proposed
rulemaking and an opportunity for
public comment are not required to be
given for these amendments 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) publishes this final rule
to make corrections to certain provisions of the Export Administration
Regulations that were amended by two final rules appearing in the
Federal Register on June 5, 2014 (79 FR 32612) and on May 13, 2014 (79
FR 27417). These two rules were drafted and finalized simultaneously,
however they separately revised some of the same provisions of the
Export Administration Regulations and certain language was either
removed or changed inadvertently. This final rule corrects those
provisions to accurately reflect the revisions made by both rules.
These corrections include reinserting two sentences inadvertently
removed because of an incorrect instruction in the June 5 rule, and
reinserting a phrase inadvertently removed by the May 13 rule, which
did not reflect a correction made in a final rule published on October
3, 2013 (78 FR 61745).
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, distribute 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 final rule, which is a consolidation of corrections
and clarifications of final rules published in 2013 and 2014, has been
determined to be not significant for purposes of Executive Order 12866.
[[Page 48661]]
2. The Department of Commerce finds that there is good cause under
5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) to waive the provisions of the Administrative
Procedure Act otherwise requiring prior notice and the opportunity for
public comment because they are unnecessary. The revisions made by this
rule are technical corrections to provisions that have already been
subject to public notice and the opportunity to comment. These
revisions in this rule are important to get in place as soon as
possible to avoid confusion by the public regarding the intent and
meaning of recent changes to the EAR. In addition, BIS finds good cause
to waive the 30-day delay in effectiveness under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3). As
mentioned previously, the revisions made by this rule are technical
corrections that need to be in place as soon as possible to avoid
confusion by the public regarding the intent and meaning of recent
changes to the EAR.
3. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for
public comment are not required to be given for these amendments 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.
