:: Export Clearance-Conformance of Export Administration Regulations With Foreign Trade Statistics Regulations
A Rule by the Industry and Security Bureau on 08/21/2003
50470-50474
03-21471
https://www.federalregister.gov/d/03-21471
This rule amends paragraph 740.1(d) to remove a reference to paragraph 758.2 because paragraph 758.1 describes the requirements of AES. This rule amends Start Printed Page 50471footnote number 1 to paragraph 740.13(d)(1) to add a reference to AES immediately following the reference to SEDs. Paragraphs 740.15(c)(1)(iv), 740.15(c)(2)(iv), 744.7(b)(1)(iv), and 744.7(b)(2)(iv) are amended to add references to AES immediately following the references to the SED and to amend the statement that the SED must be filed with the carrier to a statement that the SED or AES must be filed in accordance with the FTSR. Paragraph 740.13(d)(1) deals with certain “mass market” software that is eligible for License Exception TSU. Paragraph 740.15(c) is a provision of License Exception AVS dealing with shipments to U.S. or Canadian vessels, planes, and airline installations or agents. Paragraph 744.7(b) provides an exception for U.S. and Canadians carriers to restrictions on certain exports to and for the use of certain foreign vessels or aircraft.
2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), unless that collection of information displays a current, valid OMB control number. In accordance with the PRA, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35, OMB approved on April 26, 2002, with control number 0607-0512, the collection of all information associated with the AES and SED. The Census Bureau has estimated that each electronic SED will take approximately 3 minutes to complete and that each paper SED will take approximately 11 minutes to complete. This rule does not change the number of transactions for which such filing is necessary nor does it change the amount of information that will have to be filed for any transaction. This rule also involves a collection of information by BIS that bears OMB control number 0694-0027. The burden hour estimated associated with the collection that this rule involves (submitting a copy of the Shipper's Export Declaration or Automated Export System record to BIS when exporting certain crude oil), is nine annual burden hours. BIS believes that this rule will not change the number of burden hours. 3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications as this term is defined in Executive Order 13132.
4. We find good cause to waive the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act requiring prior notice and the opportunity for public comment (5 USC 553(b)(B)) because they are unnecessary as the changes made by this rule simply make certain provisions of the Export Administration Regulations conform to other rules that have been lawfully promulgated. No other law requires that a notice of final rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment be given for this rule. Because a notice of final rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are Start Printed Page 50472not required to be given for this rule under the Administrative Procedure Act or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 USC 601 et seq.) are not applicable.
