zero during the time when respondents 

will not be completing and submitting 

the forms during the seven-year 

suspension. Should any changes 

become necessary, they would be 

submitted to OMB for approval. 

This final rule does not impose any 

additional reporting or recordkeeping 

requirements on either small or large 

California dried prune handlers. As 

with all Federal marketing order 

programs, reports and forms are 

periodically reviewed to reduce 

information requirements and 

duplication by industry and public 

sector agencies. 

AMS is committed to complying with 

the E-Government Act, to promote the 

use of the internet and other 

information technologies to provide 

increased opportunities for citizen 

access to Government information and 

services, and for other purposes. 

AMS has not identified any relevant 

Federal rules that duplicate, overlap, or 

conflict with this action. 

A proposed rule concerning this 

action was published in the Federal 

Register on October 12, 2023 (88 FR 

70608). Copies of the proposed rule 

were also mailed or sent via email to 

California prune handlers. A copy of the 

proposed rule was made available 

through the internet by AMS via https:// 

www.regulations.gov. A 30-day 

comment period ending November 13, 

2023, was provided for interested 

persons to respond to the proposal. 

AMS received two comments. The first 

comment was in support of the 

proposal. The second commenter 

presented an alternative to the proposed 

suspension to transfer all remaining 

marketing order provisions over to the 

State of California Department of Food 

and Agriculture. In response to the 

second comment, the Committee 

determined, and AMS agrees, that there 

is no value in funding the 

administrative duties prescribed under 

the Order when the handling 

regulations and reserve control 

provisions are not in effect. 

Additionally, AMS determined that the 

suspension period, as established 

herein, will provide ample time for the 

consideration of other marketing 

programs should the prune industry 

choose to seek out such alternatives and 

request that AMS terminate the Order 

prior to the end of the suspension 

period. However, if no such request to 

terminate early is submitted or, 

conversely, a petition for reinstatement 

is not received during the suspension 

period, AMS will proceed with 

terminating the Order at end of the 

2029–2030 crop year. 

A small business guide on complying 

with fruit, vegetable, and specialty crop 

marketing agreements and orders may 

be viewed at: https://

www.ams.usda.gov/rules-regulations/ 

moa/small-businesses. Any questions 

about the compliance guide should be 

sent to Richard Lower at the previously 

mentioned address in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section. 

After consideration of all relevant 

material presented, including the 

information and recommendations 

submitted by the Committee and other 

available information, AMS has 

determined that this rule tends to 

effectuate the declared policy of the Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The European Union Aviation Safety 

Agency (EASA) submitted an 

application to the FAA, on behalf of 

Blackshape S.p.A., on February 10, 

2020, for a type certificate for the Model 

BK160–200 VLA. Under 14 CFR 

21.17(b), VLA are a special class of 

aircraft that utilize airworthiness criteria 

the FAA finds to be appropriate to the 

specific type design. 

The BK160–200 is a single 

reciprocating engine airplane (Lycoming 

IO–320–D1B with constant speed 

Hartzell propeller), full carbon 

composite low wing design, with a 

retractable tri-cycle landing gear. It has 

conventional control systems (elevator, 

aileron, rudder, flaps, and longitudinal 

trim) and provides seats for two persons 

in a tandem seat configuration with a 

maximum takeoff gross weight (MTGW) 

of 850 kilograms (kg) (1,874 pounds). It 

also has advanced avionic displays, a 

stall speed of 50 knots, a rechargeable 

lithium-ion battery, and will perform 

night visual flight rules (VFR) 

operations. 

Discussion of Comments 

The FAA issued a notice of proposed 

airworthiness criteria for the Blackshape 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
13590 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 37 / Friday, February 23, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 

S.p.A., Model BK160–200 VLA, which 

published in the Federal Register on 

January 2, 2024 (89 FR 37). No 

comments were received, and the 

airworthiness criteria are adopted as 

proposed. 

Applicability 

These airworthiness criteria, 

established under the provisions of 

§ 21.17(b), are applicable to the 

Blackshape S.p.A. Model BK160–200 

VLA. Should Blackshape S.p.A. apply at 

a later date for a change to the type 

certificate to include another model, 

these airworthiness criteria would apply 

to that model as well, provided the FAA 

finds them appropriate in accordance 

with the requirements of subpart D to 

part 21. 

Conclusion 

This action affects only the 

airworthiness criteria for the Blackshape 

S.p.A. Model BK160–200 VLA. It is not 

a rule of general applicability. 

Authority Citation 

The authority citation for these 

airworthiness criteria is as follows: 

Authority: 49 U.S.C. 106(g), 40113, 44701, 

44702, 44704. 

Airworthiness Criteria 

Pursuant to the authority delegated to 

me by the Administrator, the following 

airworthiness criteria are issued as part 

of the type certification basis for the 

Blackshape S.p.A. Model BK160–200 

VLA. The FAA finds these criteria to be 

appropriate for the aircraft and 

applicable to the specific type design 

and provide an equivalent level of safety 

to existing airworthiness standards.

RIN 0694–AI45 

Revision of License Requirements of 

Certain Cameras, Systems, or Related 

Components 

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: With this final rule, the 

Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) 

amends the Export Administration 

Regulations (EAR), which it maintains, 

by revising license requirements for 

certain cameras, systems, and related 

components. These revisions will better 

align controls with technological and 

commercial developments, such as the 

items’ global commercial availability, 

while recognizing the cooperative 

strategic relationship the United States 

has with our closest allies. In addition 

to these changes, BIS is adding controls 

on certain cameras that are not already 

controlled by either export control 

classification number (ECCN) 6A003 or 

6A203. These new controls are detailed 

under new ECCN 6A293, which is a 

classification for temporary controls for 

which BIS is seeking multilateral 

agreement. 

DATES: This rule is effective March 8, 

2024.

questions on the part 744 changes,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

BIS is amending the EAR (15 CFR 

parts 730–774) by revising the license 

requirements for cameras in part 744 

and by adding an ECCN that controls 

additional cameras to part 774. 

Background regarding these changes is 

detailed below. 

Part 744 

Modification to Existing Camera License 

Requirements 

This rule revises paragraph (a)(1) to 

§ 744.9 of the EAR. Prior to the effective 

date of this rule, paragraph (a)(1) was 

divided into (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii). To 

help ensure the restrictions in this 

paragraph are easily understood, this 

rule restructures the paragraph by 

adding (a)(1)(iii). The introductory text 

of (a)(1) will retain the same background 

information regarding applicable 

reasons for control, but the specific 

items discussed will be divided among 

(a)(1)(i) through (iii). 

Paragraph (a)(1)(i) will pertain to 

commodities controlled by ECCN 

6A003.a.3, 6A003.a.4, or 6A003.a.6 that 

will be or are intended to be used by a 

‘military end-user,’ as defined in 

paragraph (d) of § 744.9, in all 

destinations except Canada. This is a 

structural change to the paragraph only; 

the policy regarding these items remains 

the same. Similarly, this rule does not 

remove the license requirement forth in 

new paragraph § 744.9(a)(1)(iii) for 

cameras, systems and related 

components being exported for 

incorporation into foreign ‘‘military 

commodities’’ specified in ECCN 

0A919. 

Paragraph (a)(1)(ii) will revise the 

policy pertaining to the original items 

(other than those controlled in 

6A003.a.3, 6A003.a.4, and 6A003.a.6) by 

adding the phrase ‘‘in all destinations 

except countries specified in Country 

Group A:1.’’ This change will thereby 

more specifically focus the license 

requirement for the export, reexport, 

and transfer (in-country) on certain 

cameras, systems, and related 

components when destined for some of 

our closest allies. With this revision, BIS 

no longer requires a license for the 

cameras, systems, and related 

components described in ECCNs 0A504 

(incorporating commodities controlled 

by ECCNs 6A002 or 6A003, or 

commodities controlled by 6A993.a that 

meet the criterion of Note 3.a to 

6A003.b.4), 6A002, 6A003 (other than 

6A003.a.3, 6A003.a.4, and 6A003.a.6), 

or 6A993.a (having a maximum frame 

rate equal to or less than 9 Hz and thus 

meeting the criteria of Note 3.a to 

6A003.b.4), or 8A002.d when the items 

are intended to be used by a military 

end user in Country Group A:1 

countries. Prior to publication of this 

rule, a license was required for such 

transactions to all destinations except 

Canada. 

With the effective date of this rule, 

focal plane arrays will continue to 

require a license to countries specified 

in Country Groups A:1 under other 

provisions of the EAR; these items are 

controlled for Regional Stability (RS) 

reasons to countries specified in RS 

Column 1 on the Commerce Country 

Chart in supplement no. 1 to part 738 

of the EAR, as well as other parts of the 

EAR (e.g., other sections in part 744 or 

sanctions provisions in part 746). BIS 

does not allow the use of License
