105448 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 248 / Friday, December 27, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 

135.340 had inadvertently not been 

made. The final rule intended to revise 

the section heading for § 135.339 by 

removing the obsolete terminology 

‘‘check airmen (aircraft), check airmen 

(simulator)’’ and replacing them with 

‘‘check pilots.’’ This would rename the 

heading to that section from ‘‘§ 135.339 

Initial and transition training and 

checking: Check airmen (aircraft), check 

airmen (simulator),’’ to ‘‘§ 135.339 

Initial and transition training and 

checking: Check pilots.’’ Similarly, the 

section heading for § 135.340 was also 

intended to be revised by removing the 

obsolete terminology ‘‘flight instructors 

(aircraft)’’ and ‘‘flight instructors 

(simulator)’’ and replacing those terms 

with ‘‘flight instructor. This would 

rename the heading to that section from 

‘‘§ 135.340 Initial and transition training 

and checking: Flight instructors 

(aircraft), flight instructors (simulator)’’ 

to ‘‘§ 135.340 Initial and transition 

training and checking: Flight 

instructors.’’ However, the FAA failed to 

include the instruction to revise the 

section heading in the amendatory 

instructions for both sections. This 

document makes those corrections.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 6, 2024, BIS published 

in the Federal Register the interim final 

rule ‘‘Commerce Control List Additions 

and Revisions; Implementation of 

Controls on Advanced Technologies 

Consistent with Controls Implemented 

by International Partners’’ (RIN 0694– 

AJ60) (89 FR 72926). That rule 

contained inadvertent errors in §§ 742.4, 

742.6, and 743.7 of the Export 

Administration Regulations (15 CFR 

parts 730 through 774) (EAR) and in 

Export Control Classification Numbers 

(ECCNs) 2B910 and 3C908 of the 

Commerce Control List (CCL) in 

supplement no. 1 to part 774 of the 

EAR. 

Corrections 

In column 1 of 89 FR 72938, under 

the section heading ‘‘§ 742.4 National 

security,’’ there is an incorrect citation. 

This rule amends the regulatory text in 

§ 742.4(a)(5)(ii)(A) by replacing the 

reference to ‘‘general order no. 4’’ with 

‘‘general order no. 6.’’ 

In columns 1 and 2 of 89 FR 72938, 

also under the section heading ‘‘§ 742.4 

National security,’’ the paragraph 

designations in § 742.4 are incorrect. 

This rule revises paragraph 

(a)(5)(ii)(B)(1) to clarify the reference to 

quantum items eligible for the deemed 

export and deemed reexport exclusion 

by breaking the ‘‘technology’’ 

parenthetical referencing ECCNs 4D906 

and 4E906 into separate list entries for 

ECCN 4D906 and ECCN 4E906. 

In column 3 of 89 FR 72938, under 

the section heading ‘‘§ 742.6 Regional 

stability,’’ there is an incorrect citation 

in § 742.6(a)(10)(ii)(A). This rule 

amends § 742.6(a)(10)(ii)(A) by 

replacing the reference to ‘‘general order 

no. 4’’ with ‘‘general order no. 6.’’ 

In column 2 of 89 FR 72939, under 

the part heading ‘‘Part 743—Special 

Reporting and Notification’’, the 

paragraph designations in § 743.7 are 

incorrect. This rule amends § 743.7 by 

redesignating paragraphs (c)(1)(A) 

through (C) as paragraphs (c)(1)(i) 

through (iii), and redesignating 

paragraphs (c)(2)(A) through (D) as 

paragraphs (c)(2)(i) through (iv). 

In column 2 of 89 FR 72940, in the 

CCL of the EAR, ECCN 2B910.d contains 

an error. This rule corrects ECCN 

2B910.d by replacing the citation to 

2B010.c with 2B910.c. 

In column 1 of 89 FR 72951, in the 

CCL of the EAR, the license requirement 

table in ECCN 3C908 contains 

inadvertent errors (i.e., the duplication 

of the Regional Stability (RS) license 

requirement paragraph and omission of 

an Anti-terrorism (AT) license 

requirement paragraph). This rule 

corrects ECCN 3C908 by removing the 

duplicate RS license requirement 

paragraph and adding the missing AT 

license requirement paragraph. 

Export Control Reform Act of 2018 

On August 13, 2018, the President 

signed into law the John S. McCain 

National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2019, which included the 

Export Control Reform Act of 2018 

(ECRA) (codified, as amended, at 50 

U.S.C. 4801–4852). ECRA provides the 

legal basis for BIS’s principal authorities 

and serves as the authority under which 

BIS issues this rule. In particular, 

Section 1753 of ECRA (50 U.S.C. 4812) 

authorizes the regulation of exports, 

reexports, and transfers (in-country) of 

items subject to U.S. jurisdiction. 

Further, Section 1754(a)(1)–(16) of 

ECRA (50 U.S.C. 4813(a)(1)–(16)) 


khammond on DSK9W7S144PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 248 / Friday, December 27, 2024 / Rules and Regulations 105449 

authorizes, inter alia, the establishment 

of a list of controlled items; the 

prohibition of unauthorized exports, 

reexports, and transfers (in-country); the 

requirement of licenses or other 

authorizations for exports, reexports, 

and transfers (in-country) of controlled 

items; apprising the public of changes in 

policy, regulations, and procedures; and 

any other action necessary to carry out 

ECRA that is not otherwise prohibited 

by law. Pursuant to section 1762(a) of 

ECRA (50 U.S.C. 4821(a)), these changes 

can be imposed in a final rule without 

prior notice and comment. The 

revisions, including the addition of the 

missing AT license requirement 

paragraph to ECCN 3C908, made 

through this rulemaking fall within the 

authorizations conferred by ECRA as 

described above. 

Rulemaking Requirements 

1. This correction has not been 

designated a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ under section 3(f) of Executive 

Order 12866, as amended by Executive 

Order 14094. 

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 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 

3501–3521), unless that collection of 

information displays a currently valid 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) Control Number. This rule 

involves collections currently approved 

by OMB under the following control 

numbers: 

• 0694–0088, ‘‘Simplified Network 

Application Processing System,’’ which 

carries a burden-hour estimate of 29.6 

minutes for a manual or electronic 

submission; 

• 0694–0137 ‘‘License Exceptions and 

Exclusions,’’ which carries a burdenhour estimate average of 1.5 hours per 

submission (Note: submissions for 

License Exceptions are rarely required); 

• 0694–0096 ‘‘Five Year Records 

Retention Period,’’ which carries a 

burden-hour estimate of less than 1 

minute; and 

• 0607–0152 ‘‘Automated Export 

System (AES) Program,’’ which carries a 

burden-hour estimate of 3 minutes per 

electronic submission. 

Additional information regarding 

these collections of information— 

including all background materials—can 

be found at: https://www.reginfo.gov/ 

public/do/PRAMain and using the 

search function to enter either the title 

of the collection or the OMB Control 

Number. 

3. This rule does not contain policies 

with federalism implications as that 

term is defined in Executive Order 

13132. 

4. Pursuant to section 1762 of ECRA 

(50 U.S.C. 4821), this action is exempt 

from the Administrative Procedure Act 

(APA) (5 U.S.C. 553) requirements for 

notice of proposed rulemaking, 

opportunity for public participation and 

delay in effective date. While Section 

1762 of ECRA provides sufficient 

authority for such an exemption, this 

action is also independently exempt 

from these APA requirements because it 

involves a military or foreign affairs 

function of the United States (5 U.S.C. 

553(a)(1)). 

5. Because a notice of proposed 

rulemaking and an opportunity for 

public comment are not required to be 

given for this rule by 5 U.S.C. 553, or 

by any other law, the analytical 

requirements of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.) are 

not applicable. Accordingly, no 

regulatory flexibility analysis is 

required, and none has been prepared.

optical path shared by the ‘‘laser’’ 

consolidation source. 

3. ‘Paraxial configuration’ pertains to one 

or more sensors that are physically mounted 

onto or integrated into the ‘‘laser’’, electron 

beam, or electric arc consolidation source 

component. 

4. For both ‘co-axial configuration’ and 

‘paraxial configuration’, the field of view of 

the sensor(s) is fixed to the moving reference 

frame of the consolidation source and moves 

in the same scan trajectories of the 

consolidation source throughout the build 

process.
