Revisions to the Export Administration Regulations: Computer Revisions

On March 25, 1996, the Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) published an interim rule (61 FR 12714) that restructured and reorganized the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). The interim rule clarified the language of the EAR and simplified the application and made the export control regulatory regime more user friendly. This rule amends the EAR by making certain revisions and clarifications and in some cases, inserts material inadvertently omitted from the March 25 interim rule for the export and reexport of computers as described in the Commerce Control List and described by License Exception CTP. Among other revisions, this rule provides that ``No License Required'' (NLR) is available for the export and reexport of digital computers (other than those controlled for MT reasons) with a CTP of 2,000 Mtops or less, except to embargoed or terrorist-supporting destinations. Although the Export Administration Act (EAA) expired on August 20, 1994, the President invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers Act and continued in effect, to the extent permitted by law, the provisions of the EAA and the EAR in Executive Order 12924 of August 19, 1994, as extended by the President
