Rulemaking Requirements

1. This action has not been determined to be significant under Executive Order 12866, as it is a technical redesignation that does not materially affect the substance of the underlying rule.

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 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of information displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number. This action does not impact any information collection or recordkeeping requirements under the PRA.

3. This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications as that term is defined in Executive Order 13132.

4. BIS finds good cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) to waive prior notice and an opportunity for public comment on this action because this action merely re-designates existing regulatory text in the Code of Federal Regulations and therefore notice and comment are unnecessary. Furthermore, because this action makes no substantive changes, it does not constitute a substantive rule, and it is not subject to the requirement for a 30-day delay in effective date under 5 U.S.C. 553(d).

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.
