32124 Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 113 / Friday, June 12, 1998 /Rules and Regulations

under the Department of Commerce’s

Export Administration Regulations

(EAR) (15 CFR parts 730–774). Aircraft

on temporary sojourn to Cuba that are

carrying humanitarian cargo and that

satisfy all the requirements of License

Exception AVS (§ 740.15 of the EAR) do

not need a specific license from the

Department of Commerce. Aircraft

carrying humanitarian cargo to Cuba

that do not satisfy all requirements of

License Exception AVS will require a

specific license from the Department of

Commerce. License applications for

aircraft on temporary sojourn carrying

humanitarian cargo will be reviewed on

a case-by-case basis and favorably

considered. License applications

involving aircraft flying for any other

reason will be reviewed on a case-bycase basis. Cargo that is carried on such

flights is subject to separate regulatory

requirements. Certain donations may be

eligible for a License Exception under

§ 740.12 of the EAR. However, other

donations, such as donations of

medicines and medical items, and all

sales of humanitarian items require a

specific license from Commerce.

In addition, procedures for exporting

medicines and medical equipment to

Cuba, either for sale or donation are

being streamlined and license

processing time reduced. Agencies will

strive to reduce license review time by

50 percent. The CDA provides for

exports of medicines and medical

equipment and supplies to Cuba either

on a donative or commercial basis. The

Administration is taking steps to

facilitate compliance with the on-site

verification and monitoring requirement

that applies to medical sales and certain

donations to Cuba. A variety of possible

entities may conduct on-site verification

and monitoring as required by the CDA.

These entities include, but are not

limited to, representatives of the license

applicant, religious or charitable groups,

western diplomats and international

nongovernmental organizations.

Related regulatory requirements: The

Department of the Treasury’s Office of

Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) licenses

companies that provide direct charter

flight service between Miami, Florida

and Havana, Cuba. OFAC also is

responsible for licensing family

remittances and the financial

transactions of persons travelling to

Cuba, including persons that

accompany cargo on humanitarian cargo

flights licensed by the Department of

Commerce.

SUSQUEHANNA RIVER BASIN

COMMISSION

18 CFR Part 803

Review and Approval of Projects

AGENCY: Susquehanna River Basin

Commission (SRBC).

ACTION: Correcting amendment.

SUMMARY This document contains a

correction to the final regulations,

which were published in the Federal

Register on Thursday, June 15, 1995 (60

FR 31391). The regulations provided the

procedural and substantive rules for

SRBC review and approval of water

resources projects. This correction

conforms a definition to the language in

the Susquehanna River Basin compact.

DATES: Effective May 11, 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

The SRBC adopted a final rule on May

11, 1995 establishing: (1) the scope and

procedures for review and approval of

projects under Section 3.10 of the

Susquehanna River Basin Compact, Pub.

L. 91–575; 83 Stat. 1509 et seq. (the

Compact); and (2) special standards

under Section 3.4 (2) of the Compact

governing water withdrawals and

consumptive use of water. The

definitions included in that final

rulemaking action were intended to

match the definitions provided in the

Compact. Because of a typographical

transposition, the definition of ‘‘project’’

in the final rule does not match the

definition of ‘‘project’’ in Article 1,

Section 1.1 (7) of the Compact. Because

this definition was intended to go into

effect on May 11, 1995, this correcting

amendment is made retroactive to that

date.

Need for Correction

As published, the final regulations

contain an error that may prove to be

misleading to project applicants and

needs to be corrected.

List of Subjects in 18 CFR Part 803

Administrative practice and

procedure, Water resources.

Accordingly, 18 CFR part 803 is

corrected by making the following

correcting amendment:

2. In § 803.3, revise the definition of

to an existing facility and can be

considered as a separate entity for

purposes of evaluation.
