The
Department is correcting the rule,
‘‘Amendment to the International
Traffic in Arms Regulations: United
States Munitions List Category XI
(Military Electronics), and Other
Changes’’ published in the Federal
Register of July 1, 2014 (79 FR 37536),
and effective on December 30, 2014. The
changes in this rule are meant to clarify
the regulation by revising certain text
and providing conforming updates to
Supplement No. 1 to part 126, taking
into account revisions made to the
USML categories in the rule published
on July 1, 2014.
Additionally, minor corrections are
made to section 126.6, as follows: 1)
subparagraph (c)(4) is deleted to account
for a previous revision to section 126.1
that excepts section 126.6; 2)
subparagraph (c)(6)(ii) is revised to
replace the obsolete term, ‘‘Shippers
Export Declaration’’ with the correct
term, ‘‘Electronic Export Information;’’
and, subparagraph (c)(7)(iv) is deleted to
remove reference to the obsolete ‘‘Direct
Shipment Verification Program.’’
Pursuant to ECR, the Department of
Commerce has been publishing
revisions to the Export Administration
Regulations, including various revisions
to the Commerce Control List (CCL).

Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
Under the Toxic Substances
Control Act (TSCA), EPA is
promulgating a significant new use rule
(SNUR) to add nine benzidine-based
chemical substances to the existing
SNUR on benzidine-based chemical
substances. With respect to both the
newly-added benzidine-based chemical
substances and the previously-listed
benzidine-based chemical substances,
this rule makes inapplicable the
exemption relating to persons that
import or process substances as part of
an article. EPA is also promulgating a
SNUR for di-n-pentyl phthalate (DnPP)
and a SNUR for alkanes, C12-13, chloro.
These actions require persons who
intend to manufacture (defined by
statute to include import) or process
these chemical substances for an
activity that is designated as a
significant new use to notify EPA at
least 90 days before commencing such
manufacture or processing. The required
notifications will provide EPA with the
opportunity to evaluate activities
associated with a significant new use
and, if necessary based on the
information available at that time, an
opportunity to protect against potential
unreasonable risks, if any, from that
activity before it occurs. EPA is also
making a technical amendment to the
codified list of control numbers for
approved information collection

AGENCY: Department of State.
ACTION: Final rule; correction and correcting amendments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of State is correcting a final rule that
appeared in the Federal Register of July 1, 2014 (79 FR 37536) and
making other, minor changes.
DATES: This rule is effective on December 30, 2014.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. C. Edward Peartree, Director,
Office of Defense Trade Controls Policy, Department of State, telephone

Change, USML Category XI Final Rule, Correction. The Department of
State's full retrospective plan can be accessed at https://www.state.gov/documents/organization/181028.pdf.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department is correcting the rule,
``Amendment to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations: United
States Munitions List Category XI (Military Electronics), and Other
Changes'' published in the Federal Register of July 1, 2014 (79 FR
37536), and effective on December 30, 2014. The changes in this rule
are meant to clarify the regulation by revising certain text and
providing conforming updates to Supplement No. 1 to part 126, taking
into account revisions made to the USML categories in the rule
published on July 1, 2014.
Additionally, minor corrections are made to section 126.6, as
follows: 1) subparagraph (c)(4) is deleted to account for a previous
revision to section 126.1 that excepts section 126.6; 2) subparagraph
(c)(6)(ii) is revised to replace the obsolete term, ``Shippers Export
Declaration'' with the correct term, ``Electronic Export Information;''
and, subparagraph (c)(7)(iv) is deleted to remove reference to the
obsolete ``Direct Shipment Verification Program.''
Pursuant to ECR, the Department of Commerce has been publishing
revisions to the Export Administration Regulations, including various
revisions to the Commerce Control List (CCL). Revision of the USML and
CCL are coordinated so there is uninterrupted regulatory coverage for
items moving from the jurisdiction of the Department of State to that
of the Department of Commerce.
The following corrections are made to the rule, ``Amendment to the
International Traffic in Arms Regulations: United States Munitions List
Category XI (Military Electronics), and Other Changes'' published in
