Correction to Revision of Licensee’s 

Responsibility To Communicate 

License Conditions

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Interim rule; Correction.

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Industry and 

Security is correcting an interim rule 

that appeared in the Federal Register of 

November 23, 2004 (67 FR 68076). The 

rule amended the regulations to require 

licensees to communicate in writing 

specific licensing conditions. This rule 

amends the Export Administration 

Regulations (EAR) by correcting an error 

by inserting regulatory text 

inadvertently omitted.

DATES: This correction is effective: 

November 23, 2004.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Jeffery Lynch, Regulatory Policy 

Division, Office of Exporter Services, 

Bureau of Industry and Security; e-mail: 

jlynch@bis.doc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This rule 

amends the document appearing on 

page 68077 of the Federal Register of 

Thursday, November 23, 2004. BIS 

amends the rule to correct an error in 

the interim rule requiring licensees to 

communicate in writing specific license 

conditions to the parties to whom the 

license conditions apply.

§ 750.7 [Corrected] 

1. On page 68077 of the Federal 

Register, in the second column, 

amendment number 3 to section 750.7 

is corrected to read as follows: ‘‘It is the 

licensee’s responsibility to 

communicate in writing the specific 

license conditions to the parties to 

whom those conditions apply.’’

Rulemaking Requirements 

1. This rule has been determined to be 

not significant for purposes of E.O. 

12866. 

2. Notwithstanding any other 

provision of law, no person is required 

to respond to, nor shall any person 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. 3501et 

seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of 

information displays a currently valid 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) Control Number. This rule 

involves a collection of information 

subject to the PRA. This collection has 

been approved by OMB under control 

number 0694–0122, ‘‘Multi-Purpose 

Application,’’ which carries a burden 

hour estimate of 10 minutes for a 

manual or electronic submission. Send 

comments regarding these burden 

estimates or any other aspect of this 

collection of information, including 

suggestions for reducing the burden, to 

David Rostker, Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB), by e-mail to 

David_Rostker@omb.eop.gov, or by fax 

to (202) 395–7285; and to the Office of 

Administration, Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Department of Commerce, 

14th and Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., 

Room 6883, Washington, DC 20230. 

3. This rule does not contain policies 

with federalism implications as that 

term is defined under E.O. 13132. 

4. The Department finds under 5 

U.S.C. 553(b)(B) that good cause exists 

to waive prior notice and opportunity 

for public comment. This rule revises 

the EAR to require licensees to 

communicate in writing specific license 

conditions to the parties to whom they 

apply. This rule merely clarifies the 

identify of the person to whom the 

notice must be provided. The previously 

existing EAR requirement to provide 

such notice is unchanged by this rule. 

Because the rule containing the error 

has not become effective, this correction 

is not a substantive change to the EAR. 

Accordingly, it is unnecessary to 

provide prior notice and opportunity for 

public comment. Therefore, this rule is 

being 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 

Jeffrey Lynch, Regulatory Policy 

Division, Office of Exporter Services, 

Bureau of Industry and Security, P.O. 

Box 273, Washington, DC 20044, emailed to: jlynch@bis.doc.gov, or faxed 

to (202) 482–3355. The public record 

concerning this regulation will be 

maintained in the Bureau of Industry 

and Security Freedom of Information 

Records Inspection Facility, Room 6881, 

Department of Commerce, 14th Street

National Standards for Traffic Control

Pharmacies

AGENCY: Federal Highway 

Administration (FHWA), DOT.

Manual on Uniform Traffic Control 

Devices (MUTCD) to permit the use of 

Specific Service and General Service

licensed 24-hour pharmacy services 

open to the public. Those changes were 

designated as Revision No. 1 to the 2003 

Edition of the MUTCD, and they became 

effective on July 21, 2004. In the interim 

final rule, the FHWA provided a 50-day 

comment period for the public to review 

and make comment on the technical 

details. The FHWA adopts as final the 

interim rule for Revision No. 1, with 

certain changes to the technical details 

to address pertinent comments to the 

docket. The MUTCD is incorporated by 

reference in 23 CFR part 655, subpart F, 

and recognized as the national standard 

for traffic control devices used on all 

public roads.

Background 

On January 23, 2004, the President 

signed, thereby enacting into law, the 

Consolidated Appropriations Act, Fiscal 

Year 2004 (the Act), Public Law 108–

199, 118 Stat. 3. Division F of the Act 

(the Transportation, Treasury, and 

Independent Agencies Appropriations 

Act, 2004, at 118 Stat. 279), Title I, 

section 124, directs the Secretary of 

Transportation to amend the MUTCD to 

include a provision permitting 

information to be provided to motorists 

to assist motorists in locating licensed 

24-hour pharmacy services open to the 

public. The Act also allows placement 

of logo panels that display information 

disclosing the names or logos of 

pharmacies that are located within three 

miles of an interchange on the Federalaid system.1

The FHWA published an interim final 

rule on May 10, 2004, at 69 FR 25828, 

that amended the 2003 Edition of the 

Manual on Uniform Traffic Control 

Devices (MUTCD) to implement the 

requirements of the Act and provide for 

the uniformity of signing for pharmacy 

services when jurisdictions choose to 

install such signs. Those changes were 

designated as Revision No. 1 to the 2003 

Edition of the MUTCD, and they became 

effective on July 21, 2004. In the interim 

final rule, the FHWA provided a 50-day 

comment period for the public to review 

and make comment on the technical 

details. Based on the comments received 

and its own experience, the FHWA is 

adopting as final the interim rule for 

Revision No. 1, with certain changes to 

the technical details to address 

pertinent comments to the docket. 

The text of this Revision No. 1 and the 

text of the 2003 Edition of the MUTCD 

with Revision No. 1 final text 

incorporated are available for inspection 

and copying as prescribed in 49 CFR 

part 7 at the FHWA Office of 

Transportation Operations. 

Furthermore, final Revision No. 1 

changes are available on the MUTCD 

Internet site (http://

mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov). The entire 

MUTCD text with final Revision No. 1 

text incorporated is also available on 

this Internet site. 

Summary of Comments 

The FHWA received 36 letters 

submitted to the docket, of which four 

were duplicates of letters previously 

submitted to the docket. Comments 

were received from the National 

Committee on Uniform Traffic Control 

Devices (NCUTCD), four State 

Departments of Transportation, four 

members of Congress and a Senator all 

representing the State of Illinois, two 

national organizations representing 

pharmacy businesses, six other national 

organizations representing a variety of 

interests, nine organizations 

representing retail merchants or drug 

stores in individual States, one major 

national chain drug store company, and 

four individual private citizens. The 

FHWA has reviewed and analyzed all 

the comments received. General 

comments are discussed first, followed 

by discussion of significant comments 

and adopted changes in each of the 

individual sections of the MUTCD 

affected by this final rule. 

Discussion of General Comments—Part 

2 Signs 

Nearly all the letters to the docket 

expressed either support for or 

opposition to the general concept of 

adding signing for 24-hour pharmacies 

to the MUTCD. The comments from the 

four members of Congress and the 

Senator representing the State of Illinois 

were in support of the changes. The 

FHWA was required by the law 

described above to add pharmacy 

signing to the MUTCD and, as a result, 

the interim final rule solicited 

comments only on the technical details 

of the signing and not the general 

concept. The comments we received in 

opposition to the general concept 

provided insufficient information to 

suggest that the FHWA should seek 

legislative relief at this time.
