BIS Makes Technical Correction to Special Comprehensive License Removal Rule

The Bureau of Industry and Security revised an error made in its recent final rule on the removal of Special Comprehensive Licenses which incorrectly cut requirements for Office of Management and Budget Control number 0694-0152. BIS finalized the SCL rule in September, eliminating the exporter ability to consolidate exports and other activities, such as project, distribution, service supply, service facilities, aircraft and vessel repair station procedures, and special chemical handling, under one license (see 1508250016). The agency replaced number 0694-0152 with the intended number 0607-0152, it said in its final rule (here). That number relates to the Automated Export System (here). The new rule is final on Nov. 16.
