Republic of China (China), Iran,
Pakistan, Russia and the United Arab
Emirates (U.A.E.). This rule also revises
five existing entries on the Entity list,

SUMMARY:
Background
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to
part 744 of the Export Administration
Regulations (EAR)) identifies entities for
which there is reasonable cause to
believe, based on specific and
articulable facts, that the entities have
been involved, are involved, or pose a
significant risk of being or becoming
involved in activities contrary to the
national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States. The EAR
(15 CFR parts 730–774) impose
additional license requirements on, and
limit the availability of most license
exceptions for, exports, reexports, and
transfers (in-country) to listed entities.
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
relevant Federal Register notice adding
entities to the Entity List. BIS places

Jkt 250001
entities on the Entity List pursuant to
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), 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
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.
ERC Entity List Decisions
Additions to the Entity List
Under § 744.11(b) (Criteria for
revising the Entity List) of the EAR,
entities for which there is reasonable
cause to believe, based on specific and
articulable facts, that the entities 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 entities, may be
added to the Entity List. Paragraphs
(b)(1) through (b)(5) of § 744.11 provide
an illustrative list of activities that could
be considered contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the
United States.
This rule implements the decision of
the ERC to add twenty-four entities to
the Entity List. The twenty-four entities
being added are located in China, Iran,
Pakistan, Russia and the U.A.E. The
ERC made the decision to add each of
the twenty-four entities described below
under the standard set forth in
§ 744.11(b) of the EAR.
The ERC determined to add Wuhan
IRCEN Technology and Jalal
Rohollahnejad, under the destination of
China, for acting contrary to U.S.
national security or foreign policy
interests by procuring goods on behalf
of Rayan Roshd Afzar Company, which
has been designated by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury as a
Specially-Designated Nationals (SDN).
The ERC determined to add Iran Air
under the destination of Iran, because
the ERC determined that Iran Air has
transported military-related equipment
on behalf of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary
Guard Corps (IRGC) and Ministry of
Defense and Armed Forces Logistics
(MODAFL). Additionally, Iran Air’s
facilitation of the Iranian regime’s
malign activities throughout the Middle
East, particularly its history of support
for IRGC operations in Syria on behalf
PO 00000
Frm 00062
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
of the Syrian regime, poses a threat to
U.S. security and foreign policy
interests. Iran Air also has a history of
diverting spare aircraft parts intended
for civil aviation to military-linked
entities and for military purposes.
The ERC also determined to add Aref
Bali Lashak, Kamran Daneshjou, Mehdi
Teranchi, Ali Mehdipour Omrani, and
Sayyed Mohammad Mehdi Hadavi
under the destination of Iran, as the ERC
determined that these individuals have
been involved in nuclear-related
activities that are contrary to the
national security and/or foreign policy
interests of the United States.
The ERC determined to add National
Engineering Service Trading and
Consultancy Company, Triton
Educational Equipment & Consultancy
Co., and Advance Multicom under the
destination of Pakistan. The ERC
determined that National Engineering
Service Trading and Consultancy
Company and Triton Educational
Equipment & Consultancy Co. have
contributed to unsafeguarded nuclear
activities, and that Advance Multicom
has been involved in the proliferation of
unsafeguarded nuclear activities.
The ERC determined to add Kepler
Corporation and Samina Pvt. Ltd. under
the destination of Pakistan. The ERC
determined to add Kepler Corporation
and Samina Pvt. Ltd. to the Entity List
due to their involvement in the
proliferation of unsafeguarded nuclear
activities contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the
United States.
The ERC also determined to add
United Engineering and Skytech Global
Pvt. Ltd., under the destination of
Pakistan, based upon their contributions
to Pakistan’s missile program.
The ERC determined to add SNTS
Tech, under the destination of Pakistan,
as this entity attempted to procure U.S.origin items for entities in Pakistan that
are on the Entity List.
The ERC determined to add to
SANCO Pakistan, under the destination
of Pakistan, and SANCO Middle East,
FZC and SANCO Middle East, LLC,
under the destination of the U.A.E., as
these three entities have procured and
attempted to procure U.S.-origin items
for a listed entity in Pakistan.
The ERC determined to add
Technomar and Avilon Ltd., under the
destination of Russia, as these two
entities are acting on behalf of a listed
entity in circumvention of licensing
requirements by procuring U.S.-origin
items for Technopole Company, which
was added to the Entity List on
September 7, 2016 (81 FR 61601).
The ERC determined to add Focus
Middle East and Wellmar Technology
E:\FR\FM\16MRR1.SGM
16MRR1
lotter on DSKBCFDHB2PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 51 / Monday, March 16, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
FZE, under the destination of the
U.A.E., as there is reasonable cause to
believe that these entities have
conspired to transship U.S.-origin
commodities to Iran without the
required U.S. Government
authorization.
The ERC determined to add Pegasus
General Trading FZC, under the
destination of the U.A.E., as this entity
has made multiple attempts to acquire
U.S.-origin commodities ultimately
destined for Pakistan’s unsafeguarded
nuclear program, has provided false and
misleading information to BIS during an
end-use check, and has falsified official
documents to obfuscate the true endusers of items subject to the EAR.
Pursuant to § 744.11(b), the ERC
determined that the conduct of the
above-described twenty-four entities
raises sufficient concerns that prior
review of exports, reexports, or transfers
(in-country) of all items subject to the
EAR involving these entities, and the
possible imposition of license
conditions or license denials on
shipments to these entities, will
enhance BIS’s ability to prevent
violations of the EAR. For the twentyfour entities added to the Entity List in
this final rule, BIS imposes a license
requirement for all items subject to the
EAR. For twenty of the twenty-four
entities added to the Entity List in this
final rule—Jalal Rohallahnejad, Wuhan
IRCEN Technology, Aref Bali Lashak,
Ali Mehdipour Omrani, Kamran
Daneshjou, Mehdi Teranchi, Sayyed
Mohammad Mehdi Hadavi, Kepler
Corporation, Samina Pvt. Ltd., SANCO
Pakistan, Skytech Global Pvt. Ltd.,
SNTS Tech, United Engineering, Avilon
Ltd., Technomar, Focus Middle East,
Pegasus General Trading FZC, SANCO
Middle East FZC, SANCO Middle East
LCC, and Wellmar Technology FZE—
BIS imposes a license review policy of
a presumption of denial. For Iran Air,
the license review policy imposed by
BIS is case-by-case review for licenses
for the safety of civil aviation and the
safe operation of aircraft; presumption
of denial for all others. For National
Engineering Service Trading and
Consultancy Company, Triton
Educational Equipment & Consultancy
Co, and Advance Multicom, BIS
imposes the license review policy set
forth in § 744.2(d) of the EAR, a nuclear
end-user and end-use based provision.
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. The acronym ‘‘a.k.a.’’ (also known
as) is used in entries on the Entity List
to identify aliases, thereby assisting
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:35 Mar 13, 2020
Jkt 250001
exporters, reexporters, and transferors in
identifying entities on the Entity List.
For the reasons described above, this
final rule adds the following twentyfour entities to the Entity List:
China
• Jalal Rohollahnejad; and
• Wuhan IRCEN Technology.
Iran
•
•
•
•
•
•
Aref Bali Lashak;

and Pegasus);
• SANCO Middle East, FZC,
including one alias (SANCO ME FZC);
• SANCO Middle East, LLC,
including one alias (SANCO ME, LLC);
and
• Wellmar Technology FZE.
Revisions to the Entity List
This final rule revises five existing
entries, one under each of the
destinations of France, Iran, Senegal,
Singapore and the United Kingdom
(U.K.), as follows:
This rule implements a revision to
three existing entries for Dart Aviation,
first added to the Entity List under the
destinations of France, Iran, Senegal,
and the U.K. on November 13, 2019 (84
FR 61541). BIS is revising the existing
entries under France, Iran, and the U.K.,
by correcting the spelling of the first
word of the alias, ‘‘Sari IAEA’’ to ‘‘SARL
IEAS.’’
This rule implements a revision to
one existing entry for EDO–ELEMED,
PO 00000
Frm 00063
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
14795
which was first added to the Entity List
under the destinations of Lebanon and
Syria, on November 13, 2019 (84 FR
61541). BIS is revising the existing entry
under Lebanon by correcting the
spelling of the aliases and removing
redundant text.
This rule revises the existing entry for
Hia Soo Gan Benson, which was first
added to the Entity List, under the
destination of Singapore, on October 31,
2011 (76 FR 67062). BIS is revising the
first alias of the existing entry to include
the full name of ‘‘Benson Hia’’ instead
of only referencing ‘‘Benson.’’
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
March 16, 2020, 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 Control Reform Act of 2018
On August 13, 2018, the President
signed into law the John S. McCain
National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2019, which included the
Export Control Reform Act of 2018
(ECRA) (50 U.S.C. 4801–4852). ECRA
provides the legal basis for BIS’s
principal authorities and serves as the
authority under which BIS issues this
rule. As set forth in Section 1768 of
ECRA, all delegations, rules,
regulations, orders, determinations,
licenses, or other forms of
administrative action that were made,
issued, conducted, or allowed to
become effective under the Export
Administration Act of 1979 (50 U.S.C.
4601 et seq.) (as in effect on August 12,
2018, and as continued in effect
pursuant to the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et
seq.)) or under the Export
Administration Regulations, and were
in effect as of August 13, 2018, shall
continue in effect according to their
terms until modified, superseded, set
aside, or revoked under the authority of
ECRA.
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,
E:\FR\FM\16MRR1.SGM
16MRR1
14796
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 51 / Monday, March 16, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
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. This rule is not an
Executive Order 13771 regulatory action
because this rule is not significant under
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 42.5 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.

Addition of Entities to the Entity List, and Revision of Entry on
the Entity List
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In this rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends
the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding twenty-four
entities to the Entity List. These twenty-four entities have been
determined by the U.S. Government to be acting contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the United States. These
entities will be listed on the Entity List under the destinations of
the People's Republic of China (China), Iran, Pakistan, Russia and the
United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.). This rule also revises five existing
entries on the Entity list, one each under the destinations of France,
Iran, Lebanon, Singapore and the United Kingdom.
DATES: This rule is effective March 16, 2020.
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,
Fax: (202) 482-3911, Email: [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to part 744 of the Export
Administration Regulations (EAR)) identifies entities for which there
is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable
facts, that the entities have been involved, are involved, or pose a
significant risk of being or becoming involved in activities contrary
to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United
States. The EAR (15 CFR parts 730-774) impose additional license
requirements on, and limit the availability of most license exceptions
for, exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to listed entities.
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 relevant
Federal Register notice adding entities to the Entity List. BIS places
entities on the Entity List pursuant to 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), 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 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.
ERC Entity List Decisions
Additions to the Entity List
Under Sec. 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) of
the EAR, entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe, based
on specific and articulable facts, that the entities 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 entities, may be added to the Entity List. Paragraphs
(b)(1) through (b)(5) of Sec. 744.11 provide an illustrative list of
activities that could be considered contrary to the national security
or foreign policy interests of the United States.
This rule implements the decision of the ERC to add twenty-four
entities to the Entity List. The twenty-four entities being added are
located in China, Iran, Pakistan, Russia and the U.A.E. The ERC made
the decision to add each of the twenty-four entities described below
under the standard set forth in Sec. 744.11(b) of the EAR.
The ERC determined to add Wuhan IRCEN Technology and Jalal
Rohollahnejad, under the destination of China, for acting contrary to
U.S. national security or foreign policy interests by procuring goods
on behalf of Rayan Roshd Afzar Company, which has been designated by
the U.S. Department of the Treasury as a Specially-Designated Nationals
(SDN).
The ERC determined to add Iran Air under the destination of Iran,
because the ERC determined that Iran Air has transported military-
related equipment on behalf of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps
(IRGC) and Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics (MODAFL).
Additionally, Iran Air's facilitation of the Iranian regime's malign
activities throughout the Middle East, particularly its history of
support for IRGC operations in Syria on behalf of the Syrian regime,
poses a threat to U.S. security and foreign policy interests. Iran Air
also has a history of diverting spare aircraft parts intended for civil
aviation to military-linked entities and for military purposes.
The ERC also determined to add Aref Bali Lashak, Kamran Daneshjou,
Mehdi Teranchi, Ali Mehdipour Omrani, and Sayyed Mohammad Mehdi Hadavi
under the destination of Iran, as the ERC determined that these
individuals have been involved in nuclear-related activities that are
contrary to the national security and/or foreign policy interests of
the United States.
The ERC determined to add National Engineering Service Trading and
Consultancy Company, Triton Educational Equipment & Consultancy Co.,
and Advance Multicom under the destination of Pakistan. The ERC
determined that National Engineering Service Trading and Consultancy
Company and Triton Educational Equipment & Consultancy Co. have
contributed to unsafeguarded nuclear activities, and that Advance
Multicom has been involved in the proliferation of unsafeguarded
nuclear activities.
The ERC determined to add Kepler Corporation and Samina Pvt. Ltd.
under the destination of Pakistan. The ERC determined to add Kepler
Corporation and Samina Pvt. Ltd. to the Entity List due to their
involvement in the proliferation of unsafeguarded nuclear activities
contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the
United States.
The ERC also determined to add United Engineering and Skytech
Global Pvt. Ltd., under the destination of Pakistan, based upon their
contributions to Pakistan's missile program.
The ERC determined to add SNTS Tech, under the destination of
Pakistan, as this entity attempted to procure U.S.-origin items for
entities in Pakistan that are on the Entity List.
The ERC determined to add to SANCO Pakistan, under the destination
of Pakistan, and SANCO Middle East, FZC and SANCO Middle East, LLC,
under the destination of the U.A.E., as these three entities have
procured and attempted to procure U.S.-origin items for a listed entity
in Pakistan.
The ERC determined to add Technomar and Avilon Ltd., under the
destination of Russia, as these two entities are acting on behalf of a
listed entity in circumvention of licensing requirements by procuring
U.S.-origin items for Technopole Company, which was added to the Entity
List on September 7, 2016 (81 FR 61601).
The ERC determined to add Focus Middle East and Wellmar Technology
[[Page 14795]]
FZE, under the destination of the U.A.E., as there is reasonable cause
to believe that these entities have conspired to transship U.S.-origin
commodities to Iran without the required U.S. Government authorization.
The ERC determined to add Pegasus General Trading FZC, under the
destination of the U.A.E., as this entity has made multiple attempts to
acquire U.S.-origin commodities ultimately destined for Pakistan's
unsafeguarded nuclear program, has provided false and misleading
information to BIS during an end-use check, and has falsified official
documents to obfuscate the true end-users of items subject to the EAR.
Pursuant to Sec. 744.11(b), the ERC determined that the conduct of
the above-described twenty-four entities raises sufficient concerns
that prior review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of
all items subject to the EAR involving these entities, and the possible
imposition of license conditions or license denials on shipments to
these entities, will enhance BIS's ability to prevent violations of the
EAR. For the twenty-four entities added to the Entity List in this
final rule, BIS imposes a license requirement for all items subject to
the EAR. For twenty of the twenty-four entities added to the Entity
List in this final rule--Jalal Rohallahnejad, Wuhan IRCEN Technology,
Aref Bali Lashak, Ali Mehdipour Omrani, Kamran Daneshjou, Mehdi
Teranchi, Sayyed Mohammad Mehdi Hadavi, Kepler Corporation, Samina Pvt.
Ltd., SANCO Pakistan, Skytech Global Pvt. Ltd., SNTS Tech, United
Engineering, Avilon Ltd., Technomar, Focus Middle East, Pegasus General
Trading FZC, SANCO Middle East FZC, SANCO Middle East LCC, and Wellmar
Technology FZE--BIS imposes a license review policy of a presumption of
denial. For Iran Air, the license review policy imposed by BIS is case-
by-case review for licenses for the safety of civil aviation and the
safe operation of aircraft; presumption of denial for all others. For
National Engineering Service Trading and Consultancy Company, Triton
Educational Equipment & Consultancy Co, and Advance Multicom, BIS
imposes the license review policy set forth in Sec. 744.2(d) of the
EAR, a nuclear end-user and end-use based provision. 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. The acronym ``a.k.a.'' (also known as) is used in entries on the
Entity List to identify aliases, thereby assisting exporters,
reexporters, and transferors in identifying entities on the Entity
List.
For the reasons described above, this final rule adds the following
twenty-four entities to the Entity List:
China
Jalal Rohollahnejad; and
Wuhan IRCEN Technology.

Aref Bali Lashak;
Ali Mehdipour Omrani;

LLC); and
Wellmar Technology FZE.
Revisions to the Entity List
This final rule revises five existing entries, one under each of
the destinations of France, Iran, Senegal, Singapore and the United
Kingdom (U.K.), as follows:
This rule implements a revision to three existing entries for Dart
Aviation, first added to the Entity List under the destinations of
France, Iran, Senegal, and the U.K. on November 13, 2019 (84 FR 61541).
BIS is revising the existing entries under France, Iran, and the U.K.,
by correcting the spelling of the first word of the alias, ``Sari
IAEA'' to ``SARL IEAS.''
This rule implements a revision to one existing entry for EDO-
ELEMED, which was first added to the Entity List under the destinations
of Lebanon and Syria, on November 13, 2019 (84 FR 61541). BIS is
revising the existing entry under Lebanon by correcting the spelling of
the aliases and removing redundant text.
This rule revises the existing entry for Hia Soo Gan Benson, which
was first added to the Entity List, under the destination of Singapore,
on October 31, 2011 (76 FR 67062). BIS is revising the first alias of
the existing entry to include the full name of ``Benson Hia'' instead
of only referencing ``Benson.''
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 March 16, 2020, 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 Control Reform Act of 2018
On August 13, 2018, the President signed into law the John S.
McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, which
included the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 (ECRA) (50 U.S.C. 4801-
4852). ECRA provides the legal basis for BIS's principal authorities
and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this rule. As set
forth in Section 1768 of ECRA, all delegations, rules, regulations,
orders, determinations, licenses, or other forms of administrative
action that were made, issued, conducted, or allowed to become
effective under the Export Administration Act of 1979 (50 U.S.C. 4601
et seq.) (as in effect on August 12, 2018, and as continued in effect
pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C.
1701 et seq.)) or under the Export Administration Regulations, and were
in effect as of August 13, 2018, shall continue in effect according to
their terms until modified, superseded, set aside, or revoked under the
authority of ECRA.
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,
[[Page 14796]]
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. This rule is
not an Executive Order 13771 regulatory action because this rule is not
significant under 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
42.5 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
[email protected], 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. Pursuant to Sec. 1762 of the Export Control Reform Act of 2018
(50 U.S.C. 4801-4852), which was included in the John S. McCain
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, this action is
exempt from the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553)
requirements for notice of proposed rulemaking, opportunity for public
participation, and delay in effective date.
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.
