SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
38(g)(4) of the AECA (22 U.S.C. 2778)
prohibits the issuance of export licenses
to a person, if that person or any party
to the export has been convicted of
violating section 38 of the AECA and
certain other U.S. criminal statutes
enumerated at section 38(g)(1)(A) of the
AECA. A person convicted of violating
the AECA is also subject to statutory
debarment under section 127.7 of the
ITAR.
In July 2004, Rotair was convicted of
violating the AECA and the ITAR (U.S.
District Court, District of Connecticut,
3:04CR 149–JBA). Based on this
conviction, Rotair was statutorily
debarred pursuant to section 127.7 of
the ITAR and, thus, prohibited from
participating directly or indirectly in
exports of defense articles and defense
services. Notice of debarment was
published in the Federal Register (70
FR 57349, September 30, 2005).
In accordance with section 38(g)(4) of
the AECA, statutory debarment may be
terminated after consultation with the
other appropriate U.S. agencies and
after a thorough review of the
circumstances surrounding the
conviction and a finding that
appropriate steps have been taken to
mitigate any law enforcement concerns.
The Department of State, after
consultation with other agencies, has
determined that Rotair has taken
appropriate steps to address the causes
of the violations and to mitigate any law
enforcement concerns. Therefore, the
debarment against Rotair is rescinded,
effective December 7, 2007. The effect of
this action is that Rotair may participate
without prejudice in the export of
defense articles and defense services
subject to Section 38 of the AECA and
the ITAR.
