Revisions to the Export Administration Regulations; Conforming 
Revisions to the Wassenaar Arrangement List of Dual-Use Items and 
Revisions to Antiterrorism Controls

AGENCY: Bureau of Export Administration, Commerce.

ACTION: Interim rule with request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On January 15, 1998, the Bureau of Export Administration 
published an interim rule implementing the Wassenaar Arrangement List 
of Dual-Use Items. Implementation of the Wassenaar List resulted in a 
number of changes to the Commerce Control List (CCL). The major changes 
involved the removal of national security controls on certain items, 
while maintaining controls on these items for antiterrorism reasons. 
Consistent with this revision, various antiterrorism Export Control 
Classification Numbers (ECCNs) were enlarged to accommodate the items 
removed from national security controls. An easy-to-follow pattern was 
developed to track the movement of these items. Items formerly 
classified as a XX001 entry, now default into a xx991 entry. In 
addition, the January 15 rule moved items from one ECCN into another, 
or merged two or more ECCNs together. This was done to simplify the CCL 
and place together items that fall within the same general category. 
For example, ECCN 9A992 (off-highway tractors) was merged with ECCN 
9A993 (on-highway tractors) to form part of a new ECCN 9A990 that also 
includes diesel engines.
    This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by 
making the necessary conforming revisions throughout the text of the 
EAR, consistent with the January 15 revisions to the CCL.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On January 15, 1998, the Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) 
published an interim rule (63 FR 2452) that made changes to the 
Commerce Control List (CCL) necessary to implement the Wassenaar 
Arrangement. All items removed from national security controls as a 
result of the Wassenaar List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies 
continue to be controlled for antiterrorism reasons. Consistent with 
this revision, various antiterrorism Export Control Classification 
Numbers (ECCNs) were enlarged to accommodate the items removed from 
national security controls. In addition, in an effort to simplify and 
harmonize the antiterrorism controls on the CCL, the January 15 rule 
made the following renumbering revisions:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Although the Export Administration Act (EAA) expired on August 20, 
1994, the President invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers 
Act and continued in effect the EAR, and, to the extent permitted by 
law, the provisions of the EAA in Executive Order 12924 of August 19, 
1994, as extended by the President's notices of August 15, 1995 (60 FR 
42767), August 14, 1996 (61 FR 42527) and August 13, 1997 (62 FR 
43629).

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. This interim 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 (PRA), unless that 
collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control 
Number. This rule involves a collection of information subject to the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) This 
collection has been approved by the Office of Management and Budget 
under control number 0694-0088. Send comments regarding these burden 
estimates or any other aspect of these collections of information, 
including suggestions for reducing the burden, to OMB Desk Officer, New 
Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications 
sufficient to warrant preparation of a Federalism assessment under 
Executive Order 12612.
    4. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 
553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for 
public participation, and a delay in effective date, are inapplicable 
because this regulation involves a military and foreign affairs 
function of the United States (Sec. 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). Further, no 
other law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an 
opportunity for public comment be given for this interim rule. Because 
a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment 
are not required to be given for this rule under 5 U.S.C. or by any 
other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility 
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq. ) are not applicable.
    However, because of the importance of the issues raised by these 
regulations, this rule is issued in interim form and comments will be 
considered in the development of final regulations. Accordingly, the 
Department encourages interested persons who wish to comment to do so 
at the earliest possible time to permit the fullest consideration of 
their views.
    The period for submission of comments will close September 8, 1998. 
The Department will consider all comments received before the close of 
the comment period in developing final regulations. Comments received 
after the end of the comment period will be considered if possible, but 
their consideration cannot be assured. The Department will not accept 
public comments accompanied by a request that a part or all of the 
material be treated confidentially because of its business proprietary 
nature or for any other reason. The Department will return such 
comments and materials to the person submitting the comments and will 
not consider them in the development of final regulations. All public 
comments on these regulations will be a matter of public record and 
will be available for public inspection and copying. In the interest of 
accuracy and completeness, the Department requires comments in written 
form.
    Oral comments must be followed by written memoranda, which will 
also be a matter of public record and will be available for public 
review and copying. Communications from agencies of the United States 
Government or foreign governments will not be made available for public 
inspection.
    The public record concerning these regulations will be maintained 
in the Bureau of Export Administration Freedom of Information Records 
Inspection Facility, Room 4525, Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230. Records in this 
facility, including written public comments and memoranda summarizing 
the substance of oral communications, may be inspected and copied in 
accordance with regulations published in Part 4 of Title 15 of the Code 
of Federal Regulations. Information about the inspection and copying of 
records at the facility may be obtained from Margaret Cornejo, Bureau 
of Export Administration Freedom of Information Officer, at the above 
address or by calling (202) 482-5653.
