ACTION: Final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), to revise Supplement No. 4 to Part 778, Nuclear Nonproliferation Special Country List. In addition, this rule will make certain editorial clarifications and corrections, insert material inadvertently omitted from earlier regulatory amendments, and in some cases remove material subsumed by earlier regulatory amendments. EFFECTIVE DATE: This rule is effective December 29, 1994. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sharron Cook, Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Export Administration, Telephone: (202) 482-0074. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Specifically, this rule makes the following corrections and clarifications: (1) Revises Sec. 768.2 Footnote No. 1 to paragraph (a)(9), to correct an omitted deletion, by removing Vietnam and Cambodia; (2) Revises Sec. 771.17, to correct an omitted deletion, by removing the phrase ``the People's Democratic Republic of Yemen,'' from paragraph (e)(2)(vi); (3) Revises Sec. 774.2, because the provisions within paragraph (j) are contained in paragraph (i), by removing and reserving paragraph (j); (4) Revises Sec. 778, Supplement No. 4, to remove countries that have signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and add others that the U.S. would encourage to sign the NPT. Cuba, North Korea, and the Federated States of Micronesia are added. Afghanistan, Albania, Burma, Guyana, Mauritania, Mozambique, Niger, St. Kitts, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe are removed. Of the countries listed on Supplement No. 4 to Part 778, Cuba, Iran, Libya and North Korea are not eligible for GFW, Iraq is subject to a total embargo by the U.S. Treasury Department, and Moldova, although not eligible for GFW, is eligible for General License GLX; (5) Revises Sec. 787.1, to correct an omitted organizational name change, by revising the phrase ``International Trade Administration'' in paragraph (b)(2) to read ``Bureau of Export Administration''; (6) Revises Sec. 799.1, ECCN 1C10A, to conform with the intent of controls on items for nuclear proliferation concerns, by revising the requirements section, specifically, the GLV section and nuclear proliferation (NP) notes; (7) Revises Sec. 799.1, ECCN 2D02A, to conform with a revision that COCOM made effective November 7, 1992, by adding new paragraph (c) that controls software for printed circuit boards controlled under ECCN 2B09A and a new NOTE to paragraph (c); (8) Revises Sec. 799.1, ECCN 3A92F, to prevent the release of commodities not intended to be decontrolled at this time, by removing the phrase ``but not exceeding 40 Mhz'' from paragraph (b); (9) Revises Sec. 799.1, Category 5, to correct an omission by deleting references to the 30 day COCOM notification requirement in Advisory Notes 2 and 3; (10) Revises Sec. 799.1, Category 6, ECCN 6A02A to alert the public that image intensifiers specially designed, modified or configured for military use and not part of civil equipment are controlled by the Office of Defense Trade Controls, U.S. Department of State; (11) Revises Sec. 799.1, Category 6, ECCN 6A03A to add clarifying language to a couple of image camera entries; and (12) Revises Sec. 799.1, ECCN 6D93F, to correct a typographical error, by correcting the ECCN citing in the heading to read ``6A93'' instead of ``6A94''. Although the Export Administration Act (EAA) expired on August 20, 1994, the President invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and continued in effect, to the extent permitted by law, the provisions of the EAA and the EAR in Executive Order 12924 of August 19, 1994. Rulemaking Requirements 1. This final rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of Executive Order 12866. 2. This rule involves collections of information subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). These collections have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control numbers 0694-0005, 0694-0009, 0694-0010, 0694-0017, 0694- 0021 and 0694-0078. 3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications sufficient to warrant preparation of a Federalism assessment under Executive Order 12612. 4. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are not required to be given for this rule by section 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) or by any other law, under section 3(a) of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 603(a) and 603(b)) no initial or final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis has to be or will be prepared. 5. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for public participation, and a delay in effective date, are inapplicable because this regulation involves a military and foreign affairs function of the United States. Section 13(b) of the EAA does not require that this rule be published in proposed form because this rule does not impose a new control. Further, no other law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment be given for this rule. Therefore, this regulation is issued in final form. Although there is no formal comment period, public comments on this regulation are welcome on a continuing basis. Comments should be submitted to Sharron Cook, Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Export Administration, Department of Commerce, P.O. Box 273, Washington, DC 20044.
