controlled for national security reasons in Categories 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

to conform with changes in the List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies 
maintained and agreed to by governments participating in the Wassenaar

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Bureau of Industry and Security 
published in the Federal Register of April 29, 2004 [69 FR 23598], a 
final rule that revised certain entries controlled for national 
security reasons in Categories 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Part I 
(telecommunications), 5 Part II (information security), 6, and 7 to 
conform with changes in the List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies 
maintained and agreed to by governments participating in the Wassenaar 
Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods 
and Technologies (Wassenaar Arrangement). Part of the Related Controls 
paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section of ECCN 3A001 was 
inadvertently deleted. This document corrects this error.

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. The final rule has been determined to be not significant for 
purposes of E.O. 12866.
    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 rule 
involves a collection of information subject to the PRA. This 
collection has been approved by OMB under control number 0694-0088, 
``Multi-Purpose Application,'' which carries a burden hour estimate of 
58 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. Send comments 
regarding these burden estimates or any other aspect of these 
collections of information, including suggestions for reducing the 
burden, to OMB Desk Officer, New Executive Office Building, Washington, 
DC 20503; and to the Office of Administration, Bureau of Industry and 
Security, Department of Commerce, 14th and Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., 
Room 6883, Washington, DC 20230.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications 
as that term is defined under E.O. 13132.
    4. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 
553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for 
public participation, and a delay in effective date, are inapplicable 
because this regulation involves a military and foreign affairs 
function of the United States (5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). Further, no other 
law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity 
for public comment be given for this final rule. Because a notice of 
proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are not 
required to be given for this rule under the Administrative Procedure 
Act or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable. Therefore, 
this regulation is issued in final form. Although there is no formal 
comment period, public comments on this regulation are welcome on a 
continuing basis. Comments should be submitted to Sharron Cook, Office 
of Exporter Services, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of 
Commerce, P.O. Box 273, Washington, DC 20044.
