Title: Administrative Action Providing for Order to Stop Specific Exports or Reexports Otherwise Eligible Under Designation NLR  
Abstract: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding a new revocation and suspension order to part 750. This revocation and suspension order clarifies the authority of BIS to issue an order informing any person that a license is required for the export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of a specific item or items subject to the EAR to a specific destination and/or consignee (ultimate or intermediate), that would otherwise be eligible for export, reexport or transfer (in-country) under designation NLR, when BIS has reasonable grounds to believe a violation of the EAR has occurred, is about to occur, or is intended to occur in connection with the export, reexport or transfer (in-country) in question. This rule also consolidates in that same section in part 750 the related administrative measure for the revision, suspension or revocation of license exceptions that was formerly in section 740.2(b). In that same section of part 750, this rule clarifies that BIS may suspend, revise, or revoke a license for certain non-enforcement related reasons (e.g. administrative or procedural error). This rule also clarifies several provisions of the EAR to indicate that "No License Required" is not an authorization to export, but a designation that an export or reexport does not require a license from BIS.
