Amendments to the Select Agents Controls in Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 1C360 on the Commerce Control List (CCL); Correction to ECCN 1E998
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is publishing this final rule to amend the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by revising the controls on certain select agents identified in Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 1C360 on the Commerce Control List (CCL) to reflect changes that the Animal Plant and Health Inspection Service (APHIS), U.S. Department of Agriculture, recently made to the Plant Protection and Quarantine Programs (PPQ) list of select agents and toxins. The changes made by APHIS were part of a biennial review and republication of the select agents and toxins lists separately maintained by APHIS and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Both agencies maintain controls on the ``possession, use, and transfer within the United States'' of certain select agents and toxins, including human and zoonotic pathogens, animal pathogens, and plant pathogens. BIS maintains controls on ``exports'' of the select agents and toxins regulated by CDC and APHIS. CDC and APHIS simultaneously published the revisions to their lists of select agents and toxins on October 16, 2008. These changes became effective on November 17, 2008. BIS determined that the only changes that required amendments to the EAR were the changes to the PPQ list of select agents and toxins maintained by APHIS.
Foreign Trade Regulations (FTR): Eliminate the Social Security Number (SSN) as an Identification Number in the Automated Export System (AES)
The U.S. Census Bureau (Census Bureau) issues this final rule amending the Foreign Trade Regulations (FTR) to eliminate the requirement to report a Social Security Number (SSN) as an identification number when registering to file and filing electronic export information in the Automated Export System (AES) or AESDirect. If the U.S. Principal Party in Interest (USPPI) or the U.S. authorized agent residing in or having an office in the United States does not have an Employer Identification Number (EIN), the USPPI or the U.S. authorized agent must obtain an EIN through the Web site of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Former SSN filers who want to use a Dun & Bradstreet Number (DUNS) rather than an EIN for identification purposes, must first obtain an EIN from the IRS, and apply to Dun & Bradstreet for a DUNS. This final rule is being implemented to ensure that a USPPI's or authorized agent's SSN is protected in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974 (Privacy Act), title 5, United States Code (U.S.C.), section 552a. On August 5, 2009, this final rule was published as an interim final rule; the Census Bureau is finalizing this rule without change.
