BIS Publishes Notice of Minor Change to November 18, 2008 Final Rule

The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) published in Monday's Federal Register a "fix-it" rule correcting the November 18, 2008 final rule that amended the end-use and end-user controls in the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and revising the definition of the term "transfer."

Today's notice notes that the November 18, 2008 final rule:

contained one inadvertent error in the amendatory instruction used for revising one of those two sections. This error in the amendatory instruction led to one sentence of the revised regulatory text [in Section 760.1] to not be revised as was intended in the regulatory text of that final rule. This document corrects that amendatory instruction error by revising that one sentence from that section.
