RIN 0694-AD13

 
India: Removal of Indian Entity and Revision in License Review 
Policy for Certain Indian Entities; and a Clarification; Correction

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: On September 22, 2004, the Bureau of Industry and Security 
published a Federal Register document that, inter alia, removed an 
Indian entity from the Entity List and revised licensing policies for 
other Indian entities in the Export Administration Regulations. That 
notice was misprinted, containing typographical errors in the statement 
of licensing policy with respect to two Indian Department of Atomic 
Energy entities that are subject to International Atomic Energy Agency 
safeguards and in statements of Federal Register citations amending the 
Entity List. Additionally, the preamble in that notice should have 
stated that the licensing policy for the ``balance of plant'' portion 
of Indian nuclear facilities subject to International Atomic Energy 
Agency safeguards (Rajasthan 1 & 2 and Tarapur 1 & 2) is a presumption 
of approval for items not multilaterally controlled for nuclear 
proliferation reasons. This document corrects those errors.

DATES: This rule is effective September 23, 2004.

Services, Bureau of Industry and Security, telephone: (202) 482-0436.
