The Bureau of Industry and Security has issued a final rule, effective April 24, making various revisions and technical corrections to the Export Administration Regulations. Specifically, the rule amends the EAR by making corrections inadvertently omitted from three rules previously published in the Federal Register: (a) the Aug. 31, 2006, final rule implementing the rescission of Libya’s designation as a state sponsor of terrorism; (b) the Nov. 20, 2006, final rule imposing foreign policy export controls on surreptitious communications intercepting devices; and (c) the Jan. 26, 2007, final rule imposing restrictions on exports and re-exports of luxury goods to North Korea. The rule also makes a technical correction to the contact information for the Drug Enforcement Administration.
