Russian Sanctions: Addition of Certain Entities to the Entity List, 28405-28410 [2017-13167]
Download as PDF
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 119 / Thursday, June 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
Hilo, HI: ‘‘This Class E airspace is
effective during the specific dates and
times established in advance by a Notice
to Airmen. The effective date and time
will thereafter be continuously
published in the Airport/Facility
Directory, Pacific Chart Supplement.’’
This action brings the airspace
description in Order 7400.11A in line
with the airspace hours listed in the
applicable Pacific Chart Supplement.
This is an administrative change and
does not affect the boundaries, altitudes,
or operating requirements of the
airspace, therefore, notice and public
procedure under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) is
unnecessary.
Regulatory Notices and Analyses
The FAA has determined that this
regulation only involves an established
body of technical regulations for which
frequent and routine amendments are
necessary to keep them operationally
current, is non-controversial and
unlikely to result in adverse or negative
comments. It, therefore: (1) Is not a
‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under
Executive Order 12866; (2) is not a
‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT
Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44
FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3)
does not warrant preparation of a
regulatory evaluation as the anticipated
impact is so minimal. Since this is a
routine matter that only affects air traffic
procedures and air navigation, it is
certified that this rule, when
promulgated, does not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities under the
criteria of the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
The FAA has determined that this
action qualifies for categorical exclusion
under the National Environmental
Policy Act in accordance with FAA
Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental
Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’
paragraph 5–6.5a. This airspace action
is not expected to cause any potentially
significant environmental impacts, and
no extraordinary circumstances exist
that warrant preparation of an
environmental assessment.

Federation (Russia) for violating

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to
Part 744 of the EAR) identifies entities
and other persons reasonably believed
to be involved in, or that pose a
significant risk of being or becoming
involved in, activities that are contrary
to the national security or foreign policy
of the United States. The EAR imposes
additional licensing requirements on,
and limits the availability of most
license exceptions for, exports,
reexports, and transfers (in-country) to
those persons or entities listed on the
Entity List. The license review policy
for each listed entity is identified in the
License Review Policy column on the
Entity List and the impact on the
availability of license exceptions is
described in the Federal Register notice
adding entities or other 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) and part 746
(Embargoes and Other Special Controls)
of the EAR.
The End-user Review Committee
(ERC) is composed of representatives of
the Departments of Commerce (Chair),
State, Defense, Energy, and where
appropriate, the Treasury. The ERC
makes decisions to add an entry to the
Entity List by majority vote and to
remove or modify an entry by
unanimous vote. The Departments
represented on the ERC have approved
these changes to the Entity List.
Entity List Additions
Additions to the Entity List
This rule adds ten entities to the
Entity List. These ten entities are being
added 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 ten entries being
added to the Entity List consist of two
entries in the Crimea region of Ukraine
and eight entries in Russia.

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 119 / Thursday, June 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
Under § 744.11(b) (Criteria for
revising the Entity List) of the EAR,
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 entities
being added to the Entity List have been
determined to be involved in activities
that are contrary to the national security
or foreign policy interests of the United
States. Specifically, in this rule, BIS
adds entities to the Entity List for
violating international law and fueling
the conflict in eastern Ukraine. These
additions ensure the efficacy of existing
sanctions on Russia. The particular
additions to the Entity List and related
authorities are described below.
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD with RULES
A. Entity Additions Consistent With
Executive Order 13660
Three entities are added based on
activities that are described in Executive
Order 13660 (79 FR 13493), Blocking
Property of Certain Persons Contributing
to the Situation in Ukraine, issued by
President Barack Obama on March 6,
2014. As described in the Executive
Order, President Obama found that the
actions and policies of persons who
have asserted governmental authority in
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. President Obama also declared a
national emergency to deal with that
threat.
Executive Order 13660 blocks all
property and interests in property that
are in the United States, that come
within the United States, or that are or
come within the possession or control of
any United States person (including any
foreign branch) of any person
determined by the Secretary of the
Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of State, to be responsible for
or complicit in, or to have engaged in,
directly or indirectly, misappropriation
of state assets of Ukraine or of an
economically significant entity in
Ukraine, among other activities. Under
Section 8 of the Order, all agencies of
the United States Government are
directed to take all appropriate
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:41 Jun 21, 2017
Jkt 241001
measures within their authority to carry
out the provisions of the Order.
The Department of the Treasury’s
Office of Foreign Assets Control
(OFAC), pursuant to Executive Order
13660, has designated the following
three entities as being within the scope
of the Order: Bike Center, Private
Military Company ‘Wagner’ and ‘Wolf’
Holding of Security Services. In
conjunction with that designation, the
Department of Commerce adds all three
entities to the Entity List under this rule
and imposes a license requirement for
exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of all items subject to the EAR
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 13660.
B. Entity Additions Consistent With
Executive Order 13661
Three entities are added based on
activities that are described in Executive
Order 13661 (79 FR 15533), Blocking
Property of Additional Persons
Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine,
issued by President Barack Obama on
March 16, 2014. This Order expanded
the scope of the national emergency
declared in Executive Order 13660 of
March 6, 2014 (79 FR 13493). As
described in Executive Order 13661,
President Obama found that the actions
and policies of the Government of the
Russian Federation with respect to
Ukraine—including the deployment of
Russian military forces in the Crimea
region 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.
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 thereafter 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 determined by the
Secretary of the Treasury, in
consultation with the Secretary of State
to have either 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 or operate in the
PO 00000

defense or related materiel sector in
Russia. 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’s
Office of Foreign Assets Control,
pursuant to Executive Order 13661, on
behalf of the Secretary of Treasury, and
in consultation with the Secretary of
State, has designated the following three
entities as being within the scope of the
Order: Concord Catering, Limited
Liability Company Concord
Management Consulting and MolotOruzhie, OOO. BIS is also adding these
entities to the Entity List pursuant to
Executive Order 13661.
The three entities added to the Entity
List under Executive Order 13661 meet
the criteria of Section 1, subparagraph B
of the Executive Order 13661 because
they operate in Russia’s arms or related
materiel sector. With respect to these
three entities, BIS imposes a license
requirement for exports, reexports, or
transfers (in-country) of all items subject
to the EAR to these entities. This license
requirement implements an appropriate
measure within the authority of the EAR
to carry out the provisions of Executive
Order 13661.
C. Entity Additions Consistent With
Executive Order 13685
Four entities are added based on
activities that are described in Executive
Order 13685 (79 FR 77357), Blocking
Property of Certain Persons and
Prohibiting Certain Transactions with
Respect to the Crimea Region of
Ukraine, issued on December 19, 2014.
In order to take additional steps to
address the Russian occupation of the
Crimea region of Ukraine with respect to
the national emergency declared in
Executive Order 13660 of March 6,
2014, and expanded in Executive Order
13661 of March 16, 2014, and Executive
Order 13662 of March 20, 2014,
President Obama ordered certain
additional prohibitions with respect to
the Crimea region of Ukraine. In
particular, Executive Order 13685
prohibits the export, reexport, sale or
supply, directly or indirectly, from the
United States or by a U.S. person,
wherever located, of any goods,
services, or technology to the Crimea
region of Ukraine. Under Section 10 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.

Office of Foreign Assets Control,
E:\FR\FM\22JNR1.SGM
22JNR1
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 119 / Thursday, June 22, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
pursuant to Executive Order 13685, on
behalf of the Secretary of the Treasury
and in consultation with the Secretary
of State, has designated the following
four entities as operating in the Crimea
region of Ukraine: IFDK, ZAO; KPSK,
OOO; Oboronlogistika; and Riviera
Sunrise Resort & Spa.
In conjunction with these
designations, BIS adds all four of these
entities to the Entity List under this rule
and imposes a license requirement for
exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of all items subject to the EAR
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 13685.
For the ten entities added to the
Entity List based on activities that are
described in Executive Order 13660,
13661 or 13685, BIS imposes 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 subject to the EAR are to
be exported, reexported, or transferred
(in-country) to any of the entities or in
which such entities act as purchaser,
intermediate consignee, ultimate
consignee, or end-user. In addition, no
license exceptions are available for
exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) to the entities being added to
the Entity List in this rule.
The acronyms ‘‘a.k.a.’’ (also known
as) and ‘‘f.k.a.’’ (formerly known as) are
used in entries on the Entity List to help
exporters, reexporters and transferors to
better identify listed persons on the
Entity List.
This final rule adds the following ten
entities to the Entity List:

Export Administration Act of 1979
Although the Export Administration
Act of 1979 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 4,
2016, 81 FR 52587 (August 8, 2016), 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 of 1979, 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

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 implementation of
this rule is necessary to protect U.S.
national security or foreign policy
interests by preventing items from being
exported, reexported, or transferred (in
country) to the entities being added to
the Entity List. If this rule were delayed
to allow for notice and comment and a
delay in effective date, the ten 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

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.
5. 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.

Russian Sanctions: Addition of Certain Entities to the Entity
List
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export
Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding ten entities to the Entity
List. The ten entities that are added to the Entity List have been
determined by the U.S. Government to be acting contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the United States. BIS is
taking this action to ensure the efficacy of existing sanctions on the
Russian Federation (Russia) for violating international law and fueling
the conflict in eastern Ukraine. These entities will be listed on the
Entity List under the destinations of the Crimea region of Ukraine and
Russia.
DATES: This rule is effective June 22, 2017.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chair, End-User Review Committee,
Office of the Assistant Secretary, Export Administration, Bureau of
Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, Phone: (202) 482-5991,
Email: ERC@bis.doc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744 of the EAR)
identifies entities and other persons reasonably believed to be
involved in, or that pose a significant risk of being or becoming
involved in, activities that are contrary to the national security or
foreign policy of the United States. The EAR imposes additional
licensing requirements on, and limits the availability of most license
exceptions for, exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to those
persons or entities listed on the Entity List. The license review
policy for each listed entity is identified in the License Review
Policy column on the Entity List and the impact on the availability of
license exceptions is described in the Federal Register notice adding
entities or other 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) and part 746 (Embargoes and Other Special
Controls) of the EAR.
The End-user Review Committee (ERC) is composed of representatives
of the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy, and
where appropriate, the Treasury. The ERC makes decisions to add an
entry to the Entity List by majority vote and to remove or modify an
entry by unanimous vote. The Departments represented on the ERC have
approved these changes to the Entity List.
Entity List Additions
Additions to the Entity List
This rule adds ten entities to the Entity List. These ten entities
are being added 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 ten entries
being added to the Entity List consist of two entries in the Crimea
region of Ukraine and eight entries in Russia.
[[Page 28406]]
Under Sec. 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) of
the EAR, 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 entities being added to the Entity List
have been determined to be involved in activities that are contrary to
the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States.
Specifically, in this rule, BIS adds entities to the Entity List for
violating international law and fueling the conflict in eastern
Ukraine. These additions ensure the efficacy of existing sanctions on
Russia. The particular additions to the Entity List and related
authorities are described below.
A. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13660
Three entities are added based on activities that are described in
Executive Order 13660 (79 FR 13493), Blocking Property of Certain
Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, issued by President
Barack Obama on March 6, 2014. As described in the Executive Order,
President Obama found that the actions and policies of persons who have
asserted governmental authority in 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. President Obama also declared a national emergency to
deal with that threat.
Executive Order 13660 blocks all property and interests in property
that are in the United States, that come within the United States, or
that are or come within the possession or control of any United States
person (including any foreign branch) of any person determined by the
Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State,
to be responsible for or complicit in, or to have engaged in, directly
or indirectly, misappropriation of state assets of Ukraine or of an
economically significant entity in Ukraine, among other activities.
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's Office of Foreign Assets Control
(OFAC), pursuant to Executive Order 13660, has designated the following
three entities as being within the scope of the Order: Bike Center,
Private Military Company `Wagner' and `Wolf' Holding of Security
Services. In conjunction with that designation, the Department of
Commerce adds all three entities to the Entity List under this rule and
imposes a license requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-
country) of all items subject to the EAR 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
13660.
B. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13661
Three entities are added based on activities that are described in
Executive Order 13661 (79 FR 15533), Blocking Property of Additional
Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, issued by President
Barack Obama on March 16, 2014. This Order expanded the scope of the
national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660 of March 6, 2014
(79 FR 13493). As described in Executive Order 13661, President Obama
found that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian
Federation with respect to Ukraine--including the deployment of Russian
military forces in the Crimea region 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.
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 thereafter 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
determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the
Secretary of State to have either 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 or operate in the defense or related materiel sector
in Russia. 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's Office of Foreign Assets Control,
pursuant to Executive Order 13661, on behalf of the Secretary of
Treasury, and in consultation with the Secretary of State, has
designated the following three entities as being within the scope of
the Order: Concord Catering, Limited Liability Company Concord
Management Consulting and Molot-Oruzhie, OOO. BIS is also adding these
entities to the Entity List pursuant to Executive Order 13661.
The three entities added to the Entity List under Executive Order
13661 meet the criteria of Section 1, subparagraph B of the Executive
Order 13661 because they operate in Russia's arms or related materiel
sector. With respect to these three entities, BIS imposes a license
requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of all
items subject to the EAR to these entities. This license requirement
implements an appropriate measure within the authority of the EAR to
carry out the provisions of Executive Order 13661.
C. Entity Additions Consistent With Executive Order 13685
Four entities are added based on activities that are described in
Executive Order 13685 (79 FR 77357), Blocking Property of Certain
Persons and Prohibiting Certain Transactions with Respect to the Crimea
Region of Ukraine, issued on December 19, 2014. In order to take
additional steps to address the Russian occupation of the Crimea region
of Ukraine with respect to the national emergency declared in Executive
Order 13660 of March 6, 2014, and expanded in Executive Order 13661 of
March 16, 2014, and Executive Order 13662 of March 20, 2014, President
Obama ordered certain additional prohibitions with respect to the
Crimea region of Ukraine. In particular, Executive Order 13685
prohibits the export, reexport, sale or supply, directly or indirectly,
from the United States or by a U.S. person, wherever located, of any
goods, services, or technology to the Crimea region of Ukraine. Under
Section 10 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's Office of Foreign Assets Control,
[[Page 28407]]
pursuant to Executive Order 13685, on behalf of the Secretary of the
Treasury and in consultation with the Secretary of State, has
designated the following four entities as operating in the Crimea
region of Ukraine: IFDK, ZAO; KPSK, OOO; Oboronlogistika; and Riviera
Sunrise Resort & Spa.
In conjunction with these designations, BIS adds all four of these
entities to the Entity List under this rule and imposes a license
requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of all
items subject to the EAR 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 13685.
For the ten entities added to the Entity List based on activities
that are described in Executive Order 13660, 13661 or 13685, BIS
imposes 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 subject to the EAR
are to be exported, reexported, or transferred (in-country) to any of
the entities or in which such entities 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 entities being added to the Entity List in this rule.
The acronyms ``a.k.a.'' (also known as) and ``f.k.a.'' (formerly
known as) are used in entries on the Entity List to help exporters,
reexporters and transferors to better identify listed persons on the
Entity List.
This final rule adds the following ten entities to the Entity List:

Export Administration Act of 1979
Although the Export Administration Act of 1979 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 4, 2016, 81 FR 52587 (August 8, 2016), 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 of 1979, 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
[[Page 28408]]
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 implementation of this
rule is necessary to protect U.S. national security or foreign policy
interests by preventing items from being exported, reexported, or
transferred (in country) to the entities being added to the Entity
List. If this rule were delayed to allow for notice and comment and a
delay in effective date, the ten 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.
5. 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.
