Export Control Modernization: Strategic Trade Authorization
License Exception

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: This proposed rule would add a new license exception to the
Export Administration Regulations (EAR). The exception would allow
exports, reexports and transfers (in-country) of specified items to
destinations that pose little risk of unauthorized use of those items.
To provide assurance against diversion to unauthorized destinations,
transactions under this license exception would be subject to
notification, destination control statement and consignee statement
requirements. This proposed rule is part of the Administration's Export
Control Reform Initiative undertaken as a result of the fundamental
review of the U.S. export control system announced by the President in
August 2009.

DATES: Comments must be received by BIS no later than February 7, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    In August 2009, the President directed a broad-based interagency
review of the U.S. export control system with the goal of strengthening
national security and the competitiveness of key U.S. manufacturing and
technology sectors by focusing on current threats and adapting to the
changing economic and technological landscape. The review determined
that the current export control system is overly complicated, contains
too many redundancies, and, in trying to protect too much, diminishes
our ability to focus our efforts on the most critical national security
priorities. See, e.g., October 30, 2010 press release by the White
House, Office of the Press Secretary at http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2010/08/30/president-obama-lays-foundation-a-new-export-control-system-strengthen-n.
    As a result, the Administration has begun the Export Control Reform
Initiative, which will fundamentally reform the U.S. export control
system. The Export Control Reform Initiative is designed to enhance
U.S. national security and strengthen the United States' ability to
counter threats such as the proliferation of weapons of mass
destruction. The Administration determined that fundamental reform is
needed in each of the export control system's four component areas with
transformation to a single control list, a single licensing agency, a
single information technology system, and a single primary enforcement
coordination agency. The Administration is implementing the reform in
three phases. The first two phases build toward the third phase of the
single control list, licensing agency, information technology system,
and enforcement coordination agency. Under this approach, new criteria
for determining what items need to be controlled and a common set of
policies for determining when an export license is required will be
implemented. The control list criteria will be based on transparent
rules, which will reduce the uncertainty faced by our allies, U.S.
industry, and its foreign partners, and will allow the government to
erect higher walls around the most sensitive items in order to enhance
national security.

A New License Exception To Begin a More Precise Focus

    This proposed rule would implement one part of the reform
initiative. It would revise licensing policies by creating a new
license exception for transactions involving certain items subject to
the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to certain destinations.
The new License Exception Strategic Trade Authorization (STA) would be
in Sec.  740.20 of the EAR.
    The new license exception would authorize exports, reexports and
transfers (in-country) to destinations that pose little risk of
unauthorized uses, and for which U.S. national security and foreign
policy justify authorizing transactions without the delay and expense
of obtaining an export license. To provide safeguards against possible
reexports to destinations that are not authorized under License
Exception STA, where there is a greater risk of diversion to
unauthorized end-uses, the license exception would also impose certain
notification, destination control statement and consignee statement
requirements. Use of this license exception would be optional. Parties
would be free to use other license exceptions that would authorize a
planned transaction or to apply for a license if they prefer to do so.
    This license exception would be a step in the President's Export
Control Reform Initiative. With its associated specific safeguards,
this license exception would further focus export controls on the most
critical national security priorities. The Administration will continue
to work on other parts of the initiative, including implementing the
control list criteria and transitioning the Commerce Control List (CCL)
into a tiered structure to further target dual-use controls on the most
sensitive items.
    As described in the Notice of Inquiry the Department of Commerce
entitled ``Request for Public Comments on How the Descriptions of Items
on the Commerce Control List Could be (1) More Clear and `Positive' and
(2) `Tiered' based on Their (a) Significance and (b) Availability
Outside of Certain Countries'' issued simultaneously with this proposed
rule, the Administration is continuing its review of items on the CCL
to determine which paragraphs or subparagraphs within each Export
Control Classification Number (ECCN) should be identified as within the
scope of Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3. Any items the Administration
ultimately determines to be within the scope of Tier 1--i.e., items
that are critical to maintaining a military or intelligence advantage
for the United States and almost exclusively available from the United
States--will not be within the scope of License Exception STA. In
particular, the Administration is focusing on whether items within the
scope of the following ECCNs would, in whole or in part, not be
eligible for License Exception STA: 0A919, 1A002, 3A001, 3A002, 3A003,
3A201, 3A228, 3A229, 3A232, 4A001, 4A003, 5A001, 6A001, 6A002, 6A003,
6A004, 6A005, 6A006, 7A001, 7A002, 7A003, 7A004, 7A006, 8A001, 8A018,
9A001, 9A004, 9A012 and 9A018. The Administration's focus on these
ECCNs includes a focus on whether the technology controls related to
such items and other items, such as in ECCNs 9E003, 6E001 and 6E002,
meet, in whole or in part, the Tier 1 criteria.

Specific License Exception Provisions

Scope

    The license exception would apply only to Commerce Control List-
based license requirements. Transactions in which a license is required
because of an end-use--such as a proliferation end-use described in
part 744 of the EAR or a proscribed end-user (such as a party on the
Entity List in part 744 of the EAR)--or because the destination is
subject to an embargo or special restrictions in part 746 of the EAR,
would not be eligible for License Exception STA.
    Items on the Commerce Control List that are subject to the short
supply (SS), surreptitious listening (SL), missile technology (MT) or
chemical weapons (CW) reasons for control would not be eligible for
License Exception STA because of various requirements imposed by
statutes, treaties or U.S. implementation of international commitments.
Items in ECCNs 0A981 and 0A983 also would not be eligible. Those two
ECCNs apply to equipment designed for the execution of human beings and
specially designed implements of torture. The human rights concerns
associated with those items are sufficiently great to justify
precluding use of License Exception STA. License Exception STA would
also not affect the requirements for License Exception ENC in Sec.
740.17 of the EAR.

License Exception STA

    This license exception would encompass three different
authorizations, based on the reason(s) for control underlying the
license requirements that would apply to the item in the particular
transaction at issue, the destination, the sensitivity of the item and
the end-use. One authorization would allow items subject to any (or
all) of seven reasons for control to go to 37 destinations. Another
authorization would allow less sensitive items subject to only national
security reasons for control to go to two additional destinations. The
third authorization would allow less sensitive items subject to only
national security reasons for control to go to 125 additional
destinations for civil end-uses. National security-controlled items
that are ineligible for the last two authorizations would be identified
by the new ``STA exclusion paragraphs'' in the ``License Exceptions''
sections of 50 ECCN entries on the Commerce Control List. Thus, the STA
exclusion serves the opposite function of a typical list-based license
exception paragraph, such as those setting forth license exceptions LVS
(Sec.  740.3) and GBS (Sec.  740.4), which identifies items that are
eligible for a license exception.

Authorization for Items Controlled for Multiple Reasons to 37 Countries

    If the only reason(s) for control that impose(s) a license
requirement on the transaction is (are) national security (NS);
chemical or biological weapons (CB); nuclear nonproliferation (NP);
regional stability (RS); encryption items (EI); crime control (CC) (but
not ECCNs 0A981, 0A982, 0A983, 0A985 or 0E982); or significant items
(SI), exports, reexports and transfers (in-country) to 37 destinations
would be authorized. Two of the crime control ECCNs excluded from this
authorization (0A981 and 0A983) involve human rights concerns of
sufficient magnitude to justify exclusion. The other three excluded
crime control ECCNs would continue to require a license to all
destinations other than Canada.

Authorization for Less Sensitive National Security Items to 2
Additional Countries

    If the only reason for control that imposes a license requirement
on the transaction is national security (NS) and the item is not
designated in the STA sensitive items exclusion paragraph in its ECCN,
two destinations in addition to the 37 noted above would be authorized.
The STA exclusion paragraphs closely track the Sensitive List of the
Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls Conventional Arms and Dual-Use
Goods and Technologies (Wassenaar Arrangement). This rule would add
such paragraphs to 50 ECCNs.

Authorization for Less Sensitive National Security Items for Civil End-
uses in 125 Additional Countries

    If the only reason for control that imposes a license requirement
on the transaction is national security (NS), the item that is the
subject of the transaction is not designated by the STA exclusion
paragraph in its ECCN and the item is being exported, reexported or
transferred (in-country) for a civil end-use, 125 additional
destinations would be authorized. Civil end-use is defined as an end-
use that is not a military end-use as defined by Sec.  744.21(f) or a
proliferation activity described and prohibited by part 744 of the EAR.

Limitations on Subsequent Transactions That Apply to License Exception
STA

    Proposed Sec.  740.20 would preclude use of License Exception APR
paragraph (a) (Sec.  740.16(a)) for items that have been shipped
pursuant to this License Exception STA.

Conditions That Apply to License Exception STA

    Proposed Sec.  740.20 would impose three conditions that would
apply to transactions made pursuant to License Exception STA.
    (1) Exporters would be required to furnish the consignee with the
ECCN that applies to each item transferred under License Exception STA.
    (2) Reexporters and transferors would be required to provide
subsequent consignees with the ECCN provided by the exporter or prior
reexporters or transferors.
    (3) Exporters, reexporters and transferors would be required to
obtain from their consignees, prior to the shipment, a written
statement identifying the items to be shipped and restating the ECCN(s)
provided to the consignees by the exporters, reexporters or
transferors. The statement must also acknowledge that the consignee:
     Is aware that items will be shipped pursuant to License
Exception STA;
     Has been informed of the description of the items and
their ECCN(s) by the exporter, reexporter or transferor;
     Understands that shipment pursuant to License Exception
STA precludes subsequent use of paragraph (a) of License Exception APR
for the items;
     Agrees not to export, reexport or transfer these items to
any destination, enduse or end-user prohibited by the EAR;
     Agrees that, for items subject to a civil end-use
restriction, the only end-use of the items will be civil; and
     Agrees to provide copies of this document and all other
export, reexport or transfer record (i.e., the documents described in
part 762 of the EAR) relevant to the items referenced in this statement
to the U.S. Government as set forth in Sec.  762.7.
    (4) Exporters, reexporters and transferors using License Exception
STA would be required to use a special destination control statement
that applies to shipments made pursuant to License Exception STA. Like
the destination control statement requirement that currently applies to
most exports of items listed in specific entries on the Commerce
Control List, the destination control statement that applies to License
Exception STA would have to be placed on documents that accompany the
shipment. Unlike the current destination control statement, this new
destination control statement would apply to reexports and transfers
(in-country) abroad. In addition to noting that the shipment is subject
to the EAR and that any further disposition must be in accordance with
those regulations, this new destination control statement would include
the ECCN applicable to each item, explicitly state that the shipment is
being made pursuant to License Exception STA and explicitly state that
subsequent exports or reexports under paragraph (a) of License
Exception APR are prohibited.

Addition of License Exception STA Exclusion Paragraphs to 50 ECCNs

    As noted above, this rule adds such paragraphs to 50 ECCNs. The STA
exclusion paragraphs, which closely track the Wassenaar Arrangement
Sensitive List, designate certain items that would not be eligible for
License Exception STA other than for the 37 destinations set forth in
proposed Sec.  740.20(c)(1).

Incidental Changes Necessary to Implement License Exception STA

Cross Reference to Wassenaar Arrangement Reporting Requirements

    New Sec.  740.20 would cross reference the Wassenaar Arrangement
reporting requirements in Sec.  743.1 of the EAR because Wassenaar
Arrangement Sensitive List items exported pursuant to License Exception
STA would be subject to the reporting requirements of Sec.  743.1.

Revisions to Sec.  732.4

    Section 732.4 of the EAR explains how to identify and use license
exceptions. This proposed rule would revise that section to note the
License Exception STA exclusion paragraphs in ECCNs and to add License
Exception STA to the list of license exceptions that are subject to the
Wassenaar Arrangement reporting requirements of Sec.  743.1 of the EAR.

Revision to Sec.  738.2(d)(2)(i) Explaining the Use of the License
Exception STA Exclusion Paragraphs in ECCNs

    Section 738.2 of the EAR explains the workings of the Commerce
Control List, and paragraph (d)(2)(i) of that section explains the
``License Exception'' paragraph of an ECCN. This proposed rule would
revise that paragraph to explain the role of the STA exclusion
paragraphs, which is different from that of the other license exception
paragraphs that appear in ECCNs. The other license exception paragraphs
signal eligibility to use a license exception and the limits of that
eligibility. The STA exclusion paragraphs signal that two authorizing
paragraphs of License Exception STA may not be used.

Revision to Sec.  743.1 Wassenaar Arrangement Reporting

    Wassenaar Arrangement member states, including the United States,
are required to report to the Wassenaar Arrangement exports of
Sensitive List items to non-member states for which a license was not
issued. Section 743.1 of the EAR requires exporters using certain
license exceptions for such exports to report the export to BIS. The
information reported by the exporters is used to compile the report
that the United States submits to the Wassenaar Arrangement. To enable
the United States to meet its reporting obligations to the Wassenaar
Arrangement, this proposed rule would add License Exception STA to
Sec.  743.1.

Revision to Sec.  758.6

    Section 758.6 of the EAR imposes a destination control statement
that applies to exports of all items subject to the EAR that are not
classified as EAR99, i.e., to all items that are not controlled under a
specific entry on the Commerce Control List. This rule would add
language to Sec.  758.6 to alert readers that transactions authorized
by License Exception STA are subject to the destination control
statement found in Sec.  740.20(d)(3).

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. This rule has been determined to be significant for purposes of
Executive Order 12866.
    2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is
required to respond to, nor is 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.
    The proposed rule would affect a collection of information approved
by OMB under control number 0607-0152 (the Automated Export System or
AES). That collection is administered by the Census Bureau. For most
exports of items subject to the EAR, the export license number, a
license exception symbol or the designator NLR (no license required)
must be entered into AES. BIS believes that this rule, if implemented
in final form, would have no material impact on the burden imposed by
that collection because this rule would, in effect, merely replace an
existing requirement to enter the license number with a requirement to
enter a license exception symbol instead.
    This rule also amends a collection of information approved by OMB
under control number 0694-0137 (License Exemptions and Exclusions).
This control number is being amended to add the proposed requirement
for exporters, reexporters and transferors to furnish ECCNs, to prepare
and furnish a revised destination control statement and to obtain a
statement of assurance from the consignee before shipping pursuant to
the license exception that would be created by this rule. BIS expects
the requirements are likely to increase the burden associated with
control number 0694-0137 by about 3,200 hours (3,200 transactions @ 1
hour each). BIS believes that, in most instances, this new burden will
be wholly or partially offset by a reduction in burden under control
number 0694-0088 (Simplified Network Application Processing System)
which authorizes, among other things, export license applications.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications
as that term is defined under E.O. 13132.
    4. The Chief Counsel for Regulations of the Department of Commerce
has certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business
Administration that this proposed rule, if adopted in final form, would
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities.

Number of Small Entities

    Currently, BIS does not collect data on the size of entities that
currently apply for and are issued export licenses. Although BIS is
unable to estimate the exact number of small entities that would be
impacted by this rule, it does acknowledge that this rule will impact
some unknown number.

Economic Impact

    BIS believes that this rule would reduce the costs to small
entities because it would provide an alternative to existing license
requirements. Small entities (and all other entities) would be able to
choose to: (1) Comply with the safeguard provisions of the license
exception that would be created by this rule; (2) continue to apply for
licenses before engaging in the transactions that would be affected by
this rule; or (3) use any other license exception in the EAR that
authorizes a particular transaction.
    BIS believes that in many instances, small entities will elect to
comply with the safeguard provisions and use the license exception that
would be created by this rule because they are likely to find doing so
less costly than the requirements of applying for and obtaining an
export license as is currently required for most transactions that
would be affected by this rule.
    Obtaining an export license requires submitting a detailed product
description and the names, addresses and contact information about most
parties to the transaction. Moreover, the applicant is unable to engage
in the transaction until it receives approval from the government to do
so and thus incurs the costs associated with uncertainty and delay
before it can make a sale. In many instances, approval is granted only
with conditions that may impose notification requirements or end-use
restrictions. In some instances, the applicant must also obtain an
import or end-user certificate from its proposed consignee, a document
that the consignee must obtain from its government. In other instances,
the applicant must obtain a written statement from the proposed
consignee describing the transactions and providing assurance that it
will not reship the items in violation of the EAR.
    Under the license exception proposed in this rule, the party
wishing to ship the item need not contact BIS prior to the shipment for
export control purposes. Instead, that party would inform its proposed
consignee of the description of the items being exported, the ECCN
under which they are classified and a standard set of restrictions on
further shipments of the

items. The party may proceed with the transaction once it has obtained
from its consignee a statement that includes: (1) A written
acknowledgement of the receipt of that information; (2) a commitment to
comply with the EAR; and (3) a commitment to furnish information about
the transaction to the United States Government upon request.
    Exporters of certain items that are subject to national security
export controls would be required to report the transaction to BIS
after the export takes place if the item is exported to a destination
that is not a member of the Wassenaar Arrangement. However, currently
such exports must be made pursuant to either an existing license
exception or as authorized by a license. If the export is made pursuant
to an existing license exception, it is already subject to this post-
shipment reporting requirement so exporters who switch from an existing
license exception to this new license exception would incur no new or
increased burden as a result of this post-shipment reporting
requirement. If an export currently is made as authorized, the exporter
who elects to use this new license exception would be exchanging the
burden of applying for a license and waiting to learn the results for
the burden of submitting a post-shipment report.

Conclusion

    BIS is unable to determine whether there are a substantial number
of small entities affected by this rule. However, the effect of this
rule on all entities is not likely to be a significant economic impact.
In some instances, parties shipping under the license exception that
this rule would create would be required to obtain documents from their
consignees that they are not currently required to obtain. In some
instances, parties shipping under the license exception that this rule
would create would be required to provide a post-shipment report that
they are not currently required to provide. However, any increase in
costs arising from those two requirements is likely to be offset by the
fact that parties who elect to use License Exception STA would no
longer be required to submit detailed information to the government in
advance and wait for authorization before proceeding. Moreover the fact
that parties may elect to: (1) Use the new License Exception STA that
would be created by this rule, (2) use any existing license exception
that authorizes the transaction, or (3) comply with existing license
requirements provides substantial assurance that the safeguards
requirements of the new license exception would not be applied except
in instances in which the party that wishes to transfer the items
believes that those safeguard procedures impose a lesser cost than does
any available existing license exception or the existing license
procedure.
    For the reasons above, the Chief Counsel for Regulation certified
that this rule would not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.

    6. Add Sec.  740.20 to read as follows:

Sec.  740.20  License Exception Strategic Trade Authorization (STA).

    (a) Introduction. This section authorizes exports, reexports and
transfers (in-country) in lieu of a license that would otherwise be
required pursuant to part 742 of the EAR. In this section, the term
``transaction'' means exports, reexports and transfers (in-country).
    (b) Requirements and limitations--(1) Requirements for using
License Exception STA. (i) All of the reasons for control that impose a
part 742 license requirement on the transaction must be addressed in at
least one authorizing paragraph of this section.
    (ii) The party using License Exception STA must comply with all of
the requirements in paragraph (d) of this section.
    (2) Limitations on use of License Exception STA. (i) License
Exception STA may not be used in lieu of any

license requirement imposed by: ``Part 744--Control Policy: End User
and End Use Based'' or by ``Part 746--Embargoes and other Special
Controls'' of the EAR.
    (ii) License Exception STA may not be used for any transaction
involving an item controlled under ECCNs 0A981 or 0A983.
    (iii) License Exception STA may not be used for any transaction
involving an item that is controlled for reason of short supply (SS),
surreptitious listening (SL), missile technology (MT) or chemical
weapons (CW).
    (iv) License Exception STA may not be used for any transaction

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY

Federal Emergency Management Agency

44 CFR Part 64

[Docket ID FEMA-2018-0002; Internal Agency Docket No. FEMA-8537]

Suspension of Community Eligibility

AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule identifies communities where the sale of flood
insurance has been authorized under the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) that are scheduled for suspension on the effective dates
listed within this rule because of noncompliance with the floodplain
management requirements of the program. If the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) receives documentation that the community has
adopted the required floodplain management measures prior to the
effective suspension date given in this rule, the suspension will not
occur and a notice of this will be provided by publication in the
Federal Register on a subsequent date. Also, information identifying
the current participation status of a community can be obtained from
FEMA's Community Status Book (CSB). The CSB is available at https://www.fema.gov/national-flood-insurance-program-community-status-book.

DATES: The effective date of each community's scheduled suspension is
the third date (``Susp.'') listed in the third column of the following
tables.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you want to determine whether a
particular community was suspended on the suspension date or for
further information, contact Adrienne L. Sheldon, PE, CFM, Federal
Insurance and Mitigation Administration, Federal Emergency Management
Agency, 400 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20472,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NFIP enables property owners to purchase
Federal flood insurance that is not otherwise generally available from
private insurers. In return, communities agree to adopt and administer
local floodplain management measures aimed at protecting lives and new
construction from future flooding. Section 1315 of the National Flood
Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits the sale
of NFIP flood insurance unless an appropriate public body adopts
adequate floodplain management measures with effective enforcement
measures. The communities listed in this document no longer meet that
statutory requirement for compliance with program regulations, 44 CFR
part 59. Accordingly, the communities will be suspended on the
effective date in the third column. As of that date, flood insurance
will no longer be available in the community. We recognize that some of
these communities may adopt and submit the required documentation of
legally enforceable floodplain management measures after this rule is
published but prior to the actual suspension date. These communities
will not be suspended and will continue to be eligible for the sale of
NFIP flood insurance. A notice withdrawing the suspension of such
communities will be published in the Federal Register.
    In addition, FEMA publishes a Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) that
identifies the Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) in these communities.
The date of the FIRM, if one has been published, is indicated in the
fourth column of the table. No direct Federal financial assistance
(except assistance pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief
and Emergency Assistance Act not in connection with a flood) may be
provided for construction or acquisition of buildings in identified
SFHAs for communities not participating in the NFIP and identified for
more than a year on FEMA's initial FIRM for the community as having
flood-prone areas (section 202(a) of the Flood Disaster Protection Act
of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4106(a), as amended). This prohibition against
certain types of Federal assistance becomes effective for the
communities listed on the date shown in the last column. The
Administrator finds that notice and public comment procedures under 5
U.S.C. 553(b), are impracticable and unnecessary because communities
listed in this final rule have been adequately notified.
    Each community receives 6-month, 90-day, and 30-day notification
letters addressed to the Chief Executive Officer stating that the
community will be suspended unless the required floodplain management
measures are met prior to the effective suspension date. Since these
notifications were made, this final rule may take effect within less
than 30 days.
    National Environmental Policy Act. FEMA has determined that the
community suspension(s) included in this rule is a non-discretionary
action and therefore the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) does not apply.
    Regulatory Flexibility Act. The Administrator has determined that
this rule is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act because the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended,
Section 1315, 42 U.S.C. 4022, prohibits flood insurance coverage unless
an appropriate public body adopts adequate floodplain management
measures with effective enforcement measures. The communities listed no
longer comply with the statutory requirements, and after the effective
date, flood insurance will no longer be available in the communities
unless remedial action takes place.
    Regulatory Classification. This final rule is not a significant
regulatory action under the criteria of section 3(f) of Executive Order
12866 of September 30, 1993, Regulatory Planning and Review, 58 FR
51735.
    Executive Order 13132, Federalism. This rule involves no policies
that have federalism implications under Executive Order 13132.
    Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This rule meets the
applicable standards of Executive Order 12988.
    Paperwork Reduction Act. This rule does not involve any collection
of information for purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.
