ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: On December 9, 2010, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking entitled Commerce Control List: Revising Descriptions of Items and Foreign Availability as part of the President’s Export Control Reform (ECR) Initiative. The December 9, 2010 notice sought, among other things, public comments on how descriptions of items controlled on the Commerce Control List (CCL) could be made clearer. This proposed rule would implement changes identified by BIS and the public that would make the CCL clearer. This rule would only implement changes that can be made to the CCL without requiring changes to multilateral export control regime guidelines or lists. However, BIS has identified changes that would require a decision of a multilateral regime to implement. For those changes, the U.S. Government is developing regime change proposals for consideration by members of those multilateral export control regimes. BIS will implement those changes in separate rulemakings, if approved by the respective multilateral export control regimes. DATES: Comments must be received by BIS no later than January 28, 2013. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by any of the following methods: • Federal eRulemaking Portal: https:// www.regulations.gov. The identification number for this rulemaking is BIS– 2012–0044. • By email directly to publiccomments@bis.doc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Background On December 9, 2010 (75 FR 76664), the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking entitled Commerce Control List: Revising Descriptions of Items and Foreign Availability as part of the President’s Export Control Reform (ECR) Initiative. The December 9 notice sought, among other things, public comments on how descriptions of items controlled on the Commerce Control List (CCL) could be made clearer. Although these revisions originated with the ECR initiative, this proposed rule is entirely consistent in spirit and substance with Executive Order 13563, under which agencies are to conduct retrospective analyses of their regulations to identify and remedy any unnecessary compliance burden caused by rules that are unduly complex, outmoded, inconsistent, or overlapping. In Executive Order 13563, the President directed each agency to review its ‘‘existing significant regulations, and consider how best to promote retrospective analysis of rules that may be outmoded, ineffective, insufficient, or excessively burdensome, and to modify, streamline, expand, or repeal them in accordance with what has been learned.’’ In response to this directive, Commerce released on August 23, 2011 a plan for the review of its regulations. This proposed rule was identified by the Department as part of its plan for the retrospective analysis of regulations. The Department’s plan may be found at: https://open.commerce.gov/ news/2011/08/23/commerce-planretrospective-analysis-existing-rules. This proposed rule would implement changes identified by BIS and the public that would make the CCL clearer. This rule would only implement changes that can be made to the CCL without requiring a multilateral regime change. However, BIS has identified changes that would make the CCL clearer, but would require a multilateral export control regime change to implement. The U.S. Government is developing some of those changes into regime change proposals for consideration by members of those multilateral export control regimes. BIS will implement PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 those changes in separate rulemakings, if approved by the respective multilateral export control regimes. This proposed rule will identify new phrases or headings within double quotations. The EAR identifies terms defined in part 772 with double quotations as well. Please note that not all of the terms set forth within quotations in this proposed rule are defined in part 772. The additional double quotations around new phrases, headings, or commonly used words, are used in the Background section of this proposed rule to assist in the readability of the text. This proposed rule includes changes described under four headings: (1) Clarifications to existing CCL controls, including the use of the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ on the CCL; (2) Changes to conform the CCL to the multilateral export control regime control lists and previous amendments to the EAR; (3) Structural changes to improve the clarity of the CCL; and (4) Removal of fourteen ECCNs subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. (1) Clarifications to Existing CCL Controls, Including the Use of the Terms ‘‘Parts’’ and ‘‘Components’’ on the CCL The majority of changes proposed in this rule would amend the CCL without changing the scope of the controls. However, this rule does propose changes that would affect the scope of one ECCN. Specifically, this rule proposes to remove ECCN 8A918 and add certain marine boilers to ECCN 8A992, where they would be controlled for AT and UN reasons. This change is described in more detail below under the heading ‘‘ECCN 8A918.’’ The bulk of the changes this rule would make to the CCL are nonsubstantive and would provide additional regulatory guidance to people classifying items subject to the EAR. One proposed change would be to clarify the scope of ECCNs by providing clearer definitions of the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components,’’ which is discussed below. The changes BIS proposes in this rule in this section are limited to aligning with the definitions of ‘‘part’’ and ‘‘component’’ included in a proposed rule published on July 15, 2011 (76 FR 41958) entitled ‘‘Proposed Revisions to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR): Control of Items the President Determines No Longer Warrant Control Under the United States Munitions List (USML).’’ (hereinafter ‘‘the July 15, 2011 rule’’) These proposed changes include adding E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules additional references to ‘‘part’’ and ‘‘component’’ where needed in certain ECCNs to clarify that the scope of those ECCNs also extends to ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ even if previously those ECCNs may have only referenced part or component, but not referenced both part and component together. The proposed definitions of ‘‘part’’ and ‘‘component’’ are provided below, along with a discussion of the context for the need to make certain conforming changes proposed in this rule. The proposed conforming changes included in this rule would not be published in final form until the revised definitions of ‘‘part’’ and ‘‘component’’ are published in final form in a separate rule. BIS is not attempting, with the proposed changes adding additional references to ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components,’’ to change the scope of what the affected ECCNs control. If, however, the public believes any such changes would change the present scope of the affected ECCNs, then the public should submit comments that identify such changes and explain how the changes would cause the ECCNs to deviate from their present scope. In addition, the public is encouraged to review the entire CCL to identify and comment on any other ECCN that uses the terms ‘‘parts’’ or ‘‘components’’ where additional changes may be warranted to conform to the intended scope of those ECCNs. The proposed clarifying changes are as follows: (A) Revisions to ECCN headings to clarify meaning. Revision to the headings of twentyfour ECCNs. In Supplement No. 1 to part 774—The Commerce Control List, this rule would revise, to enhance clarity, the headings of the following twenty-four ECCNs: 1A995, 1B115, 2A291, 2B005, 2B109, 2B352, 2B991, 2B992, 3B991, 4A994, 5A991, 5D992, 5E992, 6A006, 6A996, 6A997, 6A998, 6B995, 6D993, 7A103, 7A107, 8A992, 9A106 and 9B991. This rule would also clarify the relationship between the headings and the ‘‘items’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section of these twenty-four ECCNs. For example, in certain ECCNs, the entries include an ‘‘items’’ paragraph, but the ECCN heading does not direct people to review the ‘‘items’’ paragraph. This rule would add the phrase ‘‘(see List of Items Controlled)’’ to these ECCN headings. For other ECCNs listed above, the heading includes the phrase ‘‘(see List of Items Controlled),’’ but the placement of the phrase is not correct in terms of what BIS intended to control in the ECCN. If the phrase appears at the end of the heading, then that means the VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 ‘‘items’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section is the exclusive, complete list of the items the ECCN controls. If, however, the phrase appears in the middle of the heading, then that means only that portion of the heading prior to the phrase ‘‘(see List of Items Controlled)’’ is specifically identified in the ‘‘items’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section, and that the remaining part of the heading (i.e., the rest of the heading after the phrase ‘‘(see List of Items Controlled)’’) is an exclusive, complete description. The placement of the phrase ‘‘(see List of Items Controlled)’’ is important for ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ referred to in ECCN headings. If ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ references appear before the phrase, then that means the entry only controls ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ specifically identified in the ‘‘items’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section. If, however, the phrase is in the middle of the heading and the reference to ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ appears after the phrase—such as ‘‘and specially designed ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ therefor’’—that means the ECCN would control specially designed ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ for any item identified in the ‘‘items’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section. This rule does not address the definition of ‘‘specially designed,’’ which was proposed in a separate Federal Register notice on June 19, 2012 (77 FR 36409), but rather the relationship between these headings and the ‘‘items’’ paragraph in each of these respective ECCNs. BIS is not attempting, with the proposed changes to the headings, to change the scope of what the affected ECCNs control. If, however, the public believes any such changes would alter the present scope of these ECCNs, then the public should submit comments that identify such changes and explain how the changes would cause the ECCNs to deviate from their present scope. In addition, the public is encouraged to review the entire CCL to identify and comment on any other ECCN headings that could be made clearer. Revisions to thirteen ECCNs. In addition, this rule would add the phrase ‘‘as follows’’ to the headings of the following thirteen ECCNs: 0A981, 5D991, 5D992, 5E992, 6A992, 6A994, 6A995, 6A997, 6A998, 6B995, 6C994, 6D993 and 9B991, for consistency with the structure of other ECCNs on the CCL. The phrase ‘‘as follows’’ is used on some of the multilateral export control regime control lists, which is why the phrase is used on the CCL, including in some unilateral ECCNs to conform to the structure of the regime-based PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 71215 ECCNs. The multilateral export control regimes do not use the phrase ‘‘(see List of Items Controlled),’’ but this phrase is used in many of the multilateral-based ECCNs on the CCL. BIS seeks greater consistency in how CCL headings are constructed, in particular how these two phrases are used in the ECCN headings. BIS welcomes additional suggestions for how these two phrases can be used more consistently on the CCL and whether one term or another should be used instead of using these two phrases together in many ECCN entries. ECCN 1D993. This rule would revise the heading of 1D993 to remove the term ‘‘equipment’’ for consistency with the definition of ‘‘equipment’’ proposed in the July 15, 2011 rule. This ECCN currently refers to equipment or materials, but the only ECCNs cross referenced in the heading are for controls on materials, so the term equipment is not needed in 1D993. ECCNs 0D001, 3D980, 3E980, 4D980 and 4E980. This rule would revise the headings of ECCNs 0D001, 3D980, 3E980, 4D980 and 4E980, by removing the term ‘‘items’’ and adding the term ‘‘commodities’’ in its place. This rule would make this change because in the context of these five ECCN headings, the term ‘‘commodities’’ is more accurate and specific regarding the scope of these entries. ECCN 2B998. The heading of 2B998 uses the undefined term ‘‘units.’’ To add greater specificity regarding what the term ‘‘unit’’ is intended to cover in this ECCN, this rule proposes to modify the heading by removing the term ‘‘units’’ and adding the term ‘‘circuit boards.’’ This change would clarify that ‘‘circuit boards’’ are the items covered under the heading of 2B998. ECCNs 3A980 and 3A981. This rule would add the term ‘‘therefor’’ immediately before the term ‘‘n.e.s.’’ to the headings of ECCNs 3A980 and 3A981. This rule would make this change to emphasize that these ECCNs refer only to components of the subject voice print equipment and polygraph equipment. ECCNs 5A001 and 5A991. This rule would correct the spelling of the word ‘‘antennae’’ in the ‘‘unit’’ paragraph of 5A001 and the ‘‘items’’ paragraph (f) of 5A991. This word should be spelled as ‘‘antennas’’ to reflect the intended meaning in these two ECCNs. ECCN 6C992. This rule would correct a grammatical error in 6C992 by removing the word ‘‘which’’ and adding in its place the word ‘‘that.’’ ECCN 9B002. This rule would correct a capitalization error in the heading of 9B002 by making the uppercase ‘‘S’’ in the phrase (See List of Items Controlled) E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 71216 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules lower case. This rule would make this change for consistency with other references to this phrase on the CCL. (B) Clarifying the use of the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ on the CCL. The July 15, 2011 rule included proposed definitions for the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components.’’ The July 15, 2011 rule proposed defining ‘‘parts’’ as ‘‘any single unassembled element of a component, accessory, or attachment which is not normally subject to disassembly without the destruction or the impairment of design use. Examples include threaded fasteners (e.g., screws, bolts, nuts, nut plates, studs, inserts), other fasteners (e.g., clips, rivets, pins), common hardware (e.g., washers, spacers, insulators, grommets, bushings), springs and wire.’’ The July 15, 2011 rule proposed defining ‘‘components’’ as an item that is useful only when used in conjunction with an ‘‘end item.’’ Components are also commonly referred to as assemblies. For purposes of this definition, an assembly and a component are the same. There are two types of ‘‘components’’: ‘‘Major components’’ and ‘‘minor components.’’ A ‘‘major component’’ includes any assembled element which forms a portion of an ‘‘end item’’ without which the end item is inoperable. For example, for an automobile, components include the engine, transmission, and battery. If you do not have all those items, the automobile will not function, or function as effectively. A ‘‘minor component’’ includes any assembled element of a ‘‘major component.’’ ‘‘Components’’ consist of ‘‘parts.’’’ References in the CCL to ‘‘components’’ include both ‘‘major components’’ and ‘‘minor components.’’ Another example for applying the definition of ‘‘components’’ in the automobile context would be a fuel pump and the engine. Under this additional example, the fuel pump is a minor component of an automobile, as it is an assembled element of a ‘‘major component,’’ the engine. While the car will not function without the fuel pump, it is not a ‘‘major component’’ because it is integrated into a ‘‘major component,’’ the engine. The July 15, 2011 rule indicated BIS would review the use of these two terms on the CCL and would likely make clarifications to CCL entries to conform to the proposed definitions included in the July 15, 2011 rule under a separate rulemaking. This proposed rule addresses the use of the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ on the CCL to ensure these terms would be used in a manner consistent with the proposed definitions included in the July 15, 2011 rule. VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 The terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ have sometimes been used interchangeably in various ECCNs. The proposed definitions included in the July 15, 2011 rule were developed to provide clear, distinct definitions for each of these terms and other terms such as ‘‘end item,’’ ‘‘system,’’ and ‘‘accessories and attachments,’’ to align with the definitions of these terms in the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). See 22 CFR § 121.8. Such distinctions are significant for purposes of determining whether an ECCN applies to an item to be exported. Under the July 15, 2011, construct for the definitions of ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components,’’ if an ECCN does not include a control on ‘‘parts’’ or ‘‘components,’’ then that ECCN would not, by definition, apply to the export of any particular ‘‘parts’’ or ‘‘components’’ meeting the respective definitions. However, as referenced above, the terms ‘‘parts’’ and components’’ have sometimes been used interchangeably, so to ensure that once these definitions of ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ are added to the EAR that the scope of existing controls are not narrowed, this rule proposes to add in additional references to ‘‘part’’ or ‘‘component,’’ in particular for ECCNs that are based on the multilateral export control regime control lists. Under the current EAR many of these ECCNs based on the multilateral control lists only list ‘‘components,’’ but not ‘‘parts.’’ However, the U.S. Government and other multilateral regime members have interpreted these ECCNs as also including ‘‘parts.’’ BIS proposes in this rule to add additional references to ‘‘parts’’ in these ECCNs, so the U.S. Government can ensure that it is meeting its multilateral export control regime commitments. Over the mid- to long-term, BIS will reach out to the respective multilateral regimes and discuss whether certain ECCNs should be limited to ‘‘components’’ or ‘‘parts’’ or some other subset of ‘‘components,’’ such as major components or minor components. Many of the unilateral-based ECCNs on the CCL reference ‘‘parts,’’ but not ‘‘components.’’ For unilateral-based ECCNs, BIS has more discretion in whether these ECCNs should control ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components.’’ However, for consistency with the approach proposed for the multilateral based ECCNs in this rule and to ensure the scope of the unilateral ECCNs is not changed, this rule proposes adding additional references to ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ as needed in the unilateral ECCNs to conform to how BIS PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 has interpreted the scope of these ECCNs in the past. To conform to the proposed definitions of ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components,’’ BIS is proposing a number of changes to the CCL to incorporate the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ in specific ECCNs. The primary purpose of these ECCN changes is to conform to those proposed definitions and to ensure that no changes are made to the current U.S. Government interpretation of these ECCN entries. The public should keep in mind the overall purpose is not to change the current scope of controls, but rather to clarify the scope of these ECCNs consistent with the July 15, 2011 rule definitions and how items are currently classified under these ECCNs. These proposed changes would revise the following one hundred fifty eight ECCNs on the CCL where the term ‘‘parts’’ or ‘‘components’’ is used, as identified and described below in more detail: ‘‘Parts’’ is used, but ‘‘specially designed’’‘‘components’’ or ‘‘ ‘‘components’’ as follows’’ is intended or ‘‘specially designed’’ ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ is intended. In three ECCNs, the term ‘‘parts’’ is used, but the term ‘‘specially designed’’ ‘‘components’’ is intended. This rule would remove the term ‘‘parts’’ and replace it with the terms ‘‘specially designed’’ ‘‘components’’ in the following three ECCNs: 0A979, 3A980 and 3A981. This rule would remove the term ‘‘part’’ and replace it with the terms ‘‘specially designed’’ ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ to the following four ECCNs: 0A982, 0A983, 0A985, 0A986. In ECCNs 0A984 and 0A987, the term ‘‘parts’’ is used, but the term ‘‘components’’ or ‘‘ ‘‘components’’ as follows’’ is intended. This rule would remove the term ‘‘parts’’ and replace it with the term ‘‘components’’ or ‘‘ ‘‘components’’ as follows’’ in these ECCNs. ‘‘The hybrid ‘‘component parts’’ is used, but ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ is intended. In certain ECCNs the hybrid undefined term ‘‘component parts’’ is used, but the intent is ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components.’’ This rule would change ECCN 3A201 to bring its meaning into alignment with this intent by changing ‘‘component parts’’ to ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components.’’ This same issue appears in some of the ‘‘xY018’’ ECCNs on the CCL, but given those ECCNs will be addressed in the ongoing USML to CCL process as those items in the ‘‘xY018’’ ECCNs are moved to the ‘‘600 series’’ ECCNs, this rule does not propose making changes to those ‘‘xY018’’ entries. E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules The term ‘‘spare parts’’ is used, but ‘‘parts’’ is intended. In ECCN 5A002, the term spare parts is used in the ‘‘LVS’’ (License Exception ‘‘shipments of limited value’’) paragraph, but the intent is ‘‘parts.’’ The inclusion of the nonstandard, undefined term ‘‘spare parts’’ could cause confusion about the scope of the LVS authorization. This rule removes the word ‘‘spare’’ to clarify the applicability of this license exception to this ECCN. ‘‘Parts’’ or ‘‘accessories’’ is included, but is not within scope of the ECCN. In ECCNs 2B201, 2B206, 2B209, 2B290, 6A225, 6A226, 6A992, 6A994, 6A995, 6C992, 6C994, and 9A120, the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘accessories’’ are used in the ‘‘unit’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section, but the ECCN does not include ‘‘parts’’ or ‘‘accessories’’ in the list of what that ECCN controls. The inclusion of references to ‘‘parts’’ or ‘‘accessories’’ in these ‘‘unit’’ paragraphs may cause confusion regarding the scope of those ECCNs. This rule would remove such references to ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘accessories’’ in these ECCNs. ‘‘Accessories’’ is included, but is not within scope of the ECCN. In ECCNs 2A292, 6A203, 6A992 and 9A106, the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘accessories’’ are used in the ‘‘unit’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section, but the ECCN does not include ‘‘accessories’’ in the list of items that the ECCN controls. The inclusion of a reference to accessories in these ‘‘unit’’ paragraphs may cause confusion regarding the scope of those ECCNs. In these same ECCNs, the term ‘‘components’’ is included in the ‘‘unit’’ paragraph, but with a different unit of measurement than ‘‘parts.’’ The references to ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ with different units of measurement is inconsistent with the interchangeable use of these terms. This rule would remove such ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘accessories’’ references and insert ‘‘parts’’ before the ‘‘components’’ reference in these ECCNs. ‘‘Parts’’ or ‘‘components’’ is used, and BIS intends the ECCN to mean ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components.’’ As the terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ are currently used interchangeably in many entries, maintaining current controls while adopting definitions for these words requires the use of both words in each of the one hundred forty-eight (148) ECCNs where one of those terms is currently used and intended. This will ensure that existing ECCNs maintain the same controls as exist under the prior undefined interchangeable use of the terms parts and components that encompass all subsidiary elements of a complete system. BIS, in consultation VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 with the other agencies and multilateral export control regimes, intends to revise these entries in the future to further refine the CCL controls. This rule would insert ‘‘parts’’ and add quotation marks in the following 127 ECCNs and Notes: 1A001, 1A002, 1A004, 1A005, 1A006, 1A008, 1A102, 1A995, 1B001, 1B003, 1B101, 1B102, 1B115, 1B117, 1B118, 1B119, 1C007, 1C117, 1C230, 1C350, 1C355, 2A001, 2A991, 2B001, 2B003, 2B004, 2B005, 2B109, 2B116, 2B229, 2B351, 2B352, 2B992, 2B998, 2D351, 3A001, 3A003, 3A101, 3A201, 3A233, 3A292, 3A982, 3A991, 3A999, 3B001, 3B002, 3B991, 3B992, 3D982, 3D991, 3E001, 3E003, 3E982, 3E991, 4A001, 4A003, 4A004, 4A101, 4A994, 5A001, 5A991, 5B001, 5E001, 5A002, 5A992, 6A001, 6A002, 6A003, 6A004, 6A005, 6A006, 6A008, 6A102, 6A107, 6A205, 6A991, 6A992, 6A995, 6A996, 6A998, 6B008, 6B995, 6D001, 6E001, 6E002, 6E993, 7A001, 7A002, 7A003, 7A005, 7A008, 7A101, 7A102, 7A103, 7A104, 7A105, 7A107, 7D001, 7D101, 7E001, 7E002, 7E101, 8A002, 8A992, 9A002, 9A003, 9A004, 9A005, 9A006, 9A008, 9A010, 9A011, 9A012, 9A106, 9A108, 9A109, 9A111, 9A120, 9B001, 9B002, 9B003, 9B009, 9B010, 9B115, 9B116, 9D004 and 9E003. In addition to the 127 ECCNs identified in the previous paragraph, this rule would also insert ‘‘parts’’ and add quotation marks in the Note to the Table on Deposition Techniques in the introductory portion of Category 2, Product Group E, and the introductory Notes to Category 5, Parts I and II. This rule would insert ‘‘components’’ and add quotation marks in the following 12 ECCNs: 2A292, 2A994, 2B001, 2B201, 5A980, 6A203, 6B995, 8A992, 9A012, 9A106, 9A991 and 9B010. This rule would reposition the term ‘‘parts’’ before ‘‘components’’ and add quotation marks to the existing terms ‘‘parts’’ and ‘‘components’’ in the following 12 ECCNs: 1A004, 1C002, 2A983, 2A984, 3A001, 4A994, 6A992, 7A994, 9A106, 9A991, 9B990 and 9E003. (C) Clarifying the use of the term ‘‘assemblies’’ on the CCL as components. In the July 15, 2011 rule, BIS proposed to define the term ‘‘components’’ to mean ‘‘components are also commonly referred to as assemblies. For purposes of this definition, an assembly and a component are the same.’’ BIS has reviewed the CCL to ensure the term ‘‘assemblies’’ is not being used redundantly on the CCL. This review has identified five ECCNs (5A991, PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 71217 9A002, 9A003, 9B002 and 9D004) where the terms ‘‘assemblies’’ and ‘‘components’’ are being used in the same ECCN, but the term ‘‘assemblies’’ should be removed to avoid the incorrect interpretation that assemblies are different from components. This rule would add the term ‘‘electronic’’ before the term ‘‘assemblies’’ in 5A991 under ‘‘items’’ paragraphs (c.1) and (g) to distinguish the particular type of assembly that is intended to be controlled under this entry. With regard to ECCNs 9A002, 9A003, 9B002 and 9D004, the U.S. Government intends to develop a proposal to submit to the Wassenaar Arrangement that would propose the removal of the term ‘‘assemblies’’ from these ECCNs or propose adding more descriptive terms, such as ‘‘electronic’’ to clarify the scope of those other multilateral-based ECCNs. This rule would remove reference to the term ‘‘assemblies’’ in ECCN 6A998, and add the term ‘‘components’’ in its place. As described above, this rule also proposes adding the term ‘‘parts’’ to 6A998. (D) This rule would also revise the following ECCNs: ECCN 1C996. This rule would amend 1C996 by revising the heading to add the phrase ‘‘not controlled by 1C006,’’ to clarify the scope of 1C996 as it relates to 1C006. ECCN 2B350. This rule would amend 2B350 by revising the ‘‘Related Definitions’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section to indicate for purposes of this entry that the term ‘chemical warfare agents’ includes those agents ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ (see 22 CFR parts 120 through 130). In addition, this rule would add a note at the end of the ‘‘items’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section to provide a reminder and cross reference to the Note for exporters, reexporters and transferors, stating the following: ‘‘See Categories V and XIV of the United States Munitions List for all chemicals that are ‘‘‘subject to the ITAR’ (see 22 CFR parts 120 through 130).’’ ECCN 2B996. This rule would amend 2B996 by revising the heading to clarify that dimensional inspection or measuring systems or equipment not controlled by 2B006 or 2B206 are controlled under this ECCN. Certain dimensional inspection or measuring systems or equipment controlled under 2B206 would also be controlled under 2B996. To clarify the relationship between 2B996 and 2B206, this rule would add 2B206 to the exclusion from 2B996. ECCN 6A002. This rule would revise the STA (License Exception ‘‘Strategic Trade Authorization’’) paragraph in the E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 71218 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules License Exceptions section, which as proposed in this rule would now be in its own section called Special Conditions for License Exception STA. This rule would remove the phrase, ‘‘to any of the eight destinations listed in § 740.20(c)(2) of the EAR’’ from the end of the current STA paragraph and would add it to the introductory text of the STA paragraph. BIS makes this change to clarify the 6A002 ‘‘items’’ paragraphs that are not eligible for License Exception STA to any of the eight destinations listed in § 740.20(c)(2). ECCN 8A918. This rule would remove the marine boilers from 8A918 and would move these items to two new ‘‘items’’ paragraphs that would be added in the List of Items Controlled section of 8A992. This rule would add a new ‘‘items’’ paragraph (l) to 8A992 for marine boilers designed to have any of the characteristics in the new 8A992.l.1 or .l.2. This rule would add ‘‘items’’ paragraph (m) to 8A992 for components, parts, accessories, and attachments for marine boilers that would be described in 8A992.l. This rule’s proposed movement of these commodities from 8A918 to 8A992.l and .m would remove the Regional Stability (RS) Column 2 control on these commodities. The AntiTerrorism (AT) and United Nations (UN) controls would be retained for the commodities moved to 8A992.l and .m. BIS proposes this change because these marine boilers do not warrant an RS control or a separate ECCN entry and can therefore be added under ECCN 8A992 to be controlled with other types of marine commodities warranting an AT control. ECCN 9A980. This rule would revise 9A980 by removing the term ‘‘parts’’ from the heading of the ECCN and adding a new heading note to clarify the scope of the ECCN. The Crime Control (CC) parts that would have been classified under this entry if exported alone are already accounted for on the CCL and controlled for CC reasons. The new heading note that this rule would add clarifies that in order for a vehicle to be classified as a nonmilitary mobile crime scene laboratory under ECCN 9A980, the vehicle must contain one or more analytical or laboratory items controlled for Crime Control (CC) reasons on the CCL, such as items controlled under ECCNs 3A980 and 3A981. This new heading note does not change the scope of the ECCN, but would make the scope of this ECCN and the relationship to other CC ECCNs on the CCL clearer. (E) Addition of ‘‘Related Controls’’ to aid in classification. Most ECCNs on the CCL contain a ‘‘related controls’’ paragraph in the List VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 of Items Controlled section. The ‘‘related controls’’ paragraph provides cross references to related ECCNs to assist the public in classifying items that are subject to the EAR. In some ECCNs, the ‘‘related controls’’ paragraph also includes cross-references to the export controls other U.S. Government agencies administer. This rule proposes adding a number of additional ‘‘related controls’’ paragraphs or revising existing ‘‘related controls’’ paragraph to assist the public in classifying items. In responding to this proposed rule, the public may also provide suggestions for additional ‘‘related controls’’ that would assist the public in classifying items. This rule proposes revising the ‘‘related controls’’ paragraphs in the following twelve ECCNs: 1A985, 1B117, 1B118, 1B119, 1B225, 1C117, 1C233, 2B105, 2B116, 3A230, 7A103 and 9B009. Lastly, this rule would revise the ‘‘related controls’’ paragraphs in ECCN 7A005 and 7A994 and include the substance of the amended related control paragraph as a new ‘‘license requirement note’’ in 7A994. This rule change would clarify the relationship between 7A005 and 7A994 and provide guidance on the appropriate classification for GPS equipment. The added text in 7A005 and 7A994 would alert persons classifying GPS items that ‘‘typically commercially available GPS do not employ encryption or adaptive antenna and are classified as 7A994.’’ (F) Addition of the term ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ to the EAR. This rule would add the term ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ to § 772.1 (Definitions of terms as used in the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)). This defined term would be added to parallel the use of the term ‘‘subject to the EAR’’ that is commonly used in the EAR, along with simplifying many of the references to the export jurisdiction of the Department of State that are included in the EAR. The vast majority of these references to the export control jurisdiction of the Department of State are on the CCL. This rule would also add the following definition of ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ in § 772.1: A term used in the EAR to describe those commodities, software, technology (e.g., technical data) and defense services over which the U.S. Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) exercises regulatory jurisdiction under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) (see 22 CFR 120–130). This rule would make conforming changes to the rest of the EAR, including several ECCNs and §§ 734.4 (De minimis U.S. content), 734.6 (Assistance available from BIS for PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 determining licensing and other requirements), and 740.6 (Technology and software under restriction (TSR)), by adding ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ where the export control jurisdiction of the Department of State is referenced. In addition to making the conforming change in § 734.6, this rule would revise the language that refers to the ITAR to clarify that in order to determine whether an item is ‘‘subject to the ITAR,’’ you should review the ITAR’s United States Munitions List (see 22 CFR §§ 120.6 and 121.1). The revised text would also clarify you may also submit a request to the Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, for a formal jurisdictional determination regarding the commodity, software, technology, or activity at issue (see 22 CFR § 120.4). (2) Changes to Conform the CCL to the Multilateral Export Control Regime Control Lists and Previous Amendments to the EAR This rule also proposes making the following changes to conform the CCL to the multilateral export control regime control lists and to conform the CCL to the intent of past amendments to the EAR. These are cases where a previous amendment to the EAR was intended to effect a change, but the change was not implemented as intended or where a conforming change should have been made to the CCL, but was inadvertently not made in a past rulemaking. This rule proposes to make the following conforming changes: (A) Conforming changes for TSR limitations of Wassenaar Very Sensitive List Items. In implementing its commitment to exercise vigilance for the licensing of items listed on the Wassenaar Very Sensitive List, the United States has limited the use of License Exception TSR to a list of specifically identified countries for certain ECCNs. These limitations are contained in the TSR paragraph in the License Exception section of nine ECCNs (i.e., ECCNs 1E001, 5D001, 5E001, 6D001, 6D003, 6E001, 6E002, 8D001 and 8E001) that contain items on the Wassenaar Very Sensitive List and for which TSR has been authorized for some, or all of the ECCN. The TSR paragraph limitation was introduced in 1998, upon implementation of the Wassenaar Arrangement (63 FR 2452), with a list of sixteen destinations eligible for TSR for Wassenaar Very Sensitive List items. Approximately one-year later Japan was added to the TSR paragraph limitation (64 FR 10852). In 2008, Australia and Norway were added to the TSR E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules paragraph in ECCN 1E001, with the explanation that their original exclusion had been an oversight. Australia and Norway were not added to the other TSR paragraphs with Wassenaar Very Sensitive List limitations, creating an inconsistency. This rule proposes to adopt a standardized list of countries under the EAR for the nine ECCNs. The use of this standardized list of countries would simplify the use of the TSR License Exception for these nine ECCNs and aid the public’s understanding regarding what countries are eligible and not eligible to receive National Security (NS) controlled technology under these nine ECCNs. BIS has recently determined that the thirty six (36) countries listed in License Exception Strategic Trade Authorization, Section 740.20(c)(2) of the EAR, are eligible for License Exception authorization for Wassenaar Very Sensitive List items. These 36 countries are: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, or the United Kingdom. This rule proposes to revise the list of countries in the TSR paragraph for these nine ECCNs to state ‘‘those 36 countries listed in § 740.20(c)(1) (License Exception STA).’’ The 17 countries (19 countries in 1E001) that were previously identified as being eligible for License Exception TSR under these ECCNs were a subset of the 36 STA-eligible countries. Therefore, this proposed rule would add the remaining 19 countries, except for 1E001 where this proposed rule would add the remaining 17 countries, as eligible countries to receive this type of technology through application of License Exception TSR under these ECCNs. (B) ECCN changes to conform to the multilateral export control regimes. ECCNs 1A101. This rule would amend 1A101 by replacing the defined term ‘‘missiles’’ with the phrase ‘‘rockets, missiles, or unmanned aerial vehicles capable of achieving a ‘‘range’’ equal to or greater than 300 km’’ to conform to the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) Annex. ECCNs 1D103. This rule would amend 1D103 by replacing the defined term ‘‘missiles’’ with the phrase ‘‘rockets, missiles, or unmanned aerial vehicles capable of delivering at least a 500 kg payload to a ‘‘range’’ equal to or VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 greater than 300 km’’ to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 5D101. This rule would amend 5D101 by removing the term ‘‘items’’ and adding the term ‘‘equipment’’ in its place. This rule would make this change to be consistent with the MTCR Annex. ECCN 6A203. This rule would amend 6A203 by removing ‘‘accessories in $ value’’ from the ‘‘unit’’ paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section. This change would be made to conform to the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) control list, which does not include controls on ‘‘accessories’’ under NSG 1.A.2, 5.B.3, and 5.B.4. ECCN 6D102. This rule would amend 6D102 by removing the term ‘‘goods’’ from the heading and adding the term ‘‘equipment’’ in its place. This rule would make this change to be consistent with the MTCR Annex. ECCN 6D994. This rule would remove 6D994 to conform to a previous amendment to the EAR that imposed a control for these same items under 6D003.c. BIS’s intention when 6D994 was added to the CCL was to impose a control on this software until such time as a control could be approved at the Wassenaar Arrangement and implemented in the EAR. At the time when the final rule to add this software to 6D003.c was published, the intention was to remove 6D994. However, this entry was inadvertently retained at the time 6D003.c was added to the CCL, which may have caused confusion for exporters trying to classify this type of software because the software meets the description of two software ECCNs. To address this scenario, this rule would remove 6D994 from the CCL, leaving 6D003.c as the control ECCN. ECCN 7D101. This rule would amend 7D101 by revising the heading to include 7A117 in the list of ECCNs for which 7D101 controls the software. 7A117 is a reference to a USML control based on the MTCR Annex. 7D101 controls the software of certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This change is made to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 7E104. This rule would amend 7E104 by replacing the defined term ‘‘missiles’’ with the phrase ‘‘rockets or missiles capable of achieving a ‘‘range’’ equal to or greater than 300km’’ to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9A107. This rule would amend 9A107 by revising the heading to replace the word ‘‘engines’’ with the word ‘‘motors.’’ This change is made to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9A110. This rule would amend 9A110 by revising the heading to include 9A109 in the list of ECCNs for which 9A110 controls the composite PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 71219 structures, laminates and manufactures thereof. 9A109 is a reference to a USML control based on the MTCR Annex. 9A110 controls the software of certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This rule would further amend 9A110 by replacing the defined term ‘‘missiles’’ with the phrase ‘‘rockets, missiles, or unmanned aerial vehicles capable of achieving a ‘‘range’’ equal to or greater than 300 km.’’ These changes are made to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9A118. This rule would amend 9A118 by inserting the phrase ‘‘missiles, and unmanned aerial vehicles capable of achieving a ‘‘range’’ equal with a range capability of 300 Km or greater’’ into the heading to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9B115. This rule would amend 9B115 by revising the heading to include 9A103 in the list of ECCNs for which 9B115 controls the ‘‘production equipment.’’ 9A103 is a reference to a USML control based on the MTCR Annex. 9B115 controls the ‘‘production equipment’’ of certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This change is made to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9B116. This rule would amend 9B116 by revising the heading to include 9A103 in the list of ECCNs for which 9B116 controls the ‘‘production equipment.’’ 9A103 is a reference to a USML control based on the MTCR Annex. 9B116 controls the ‘‘production equipment’’ of certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This change is made to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9D103. This rule would amend 9D103 by revising the heading to include ECCNs 9A009, 9A107 and 9A109, and to expand the reference to 9A105 from 9A105.a to the entire ECCN in the list of ECCNs for which 9D103 controls certain ‘‘software.’’ ECCNs 9A009, 9A105, 9A107 and 9A109 are references to USML controls based on the MTCR Annex. 9D103 is a reference to USML control based on the MTCR Annex. This change is made to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9D104. This rule would amend 9D104 by revising the heading to include all of ECCNs 9A006, 9A007, 9A008, 9A009, 9A010, 9A115 and 9A116 and 9A106.e in the list of ECCNs for which 9D104 controls the ‘‘software.’’ 9A006, 9A007, 9A008, 9A009, 9A010, 9A115 and 9A116 are references to USML controls based on the MTCR Annex. 9A106.e is controlled on the CCL for MT reasons. 9D104 controls the ‘‘software’’ of certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This change is made to conform to the MTCR Annex. ECCN 9D105. This rule would amend 9D105 by replacing the defined term E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 71220 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 ‘‘missiles’’ with the phrase ‘‘rockets, missiles, or unmanned aerial vehicles capable of achieving a ‘‘range’’ equal to or greater than 300 km’’ to conform to the MTCR Annex. (3) Structural Changes To Improve the Clarity of the CCL ECCNs on the CCL follow the same basic paragraph structure, although not all ECCNs contain the same paragraphs. The common paragraph structure is intended to allow the public to quickly review ECCNs and to identify relevant paragraphs in each ECCN. This rule proposes changes to the standard section headings that are used in most ECCNs on the CCL. These proposed changes would affect most of the ECCNs on the CCL, but would be implemented through instructions instead of setting out each proposed revision in the regulatory text. BIS is proposing the changes in the format to save on the cost of implementing these structural changes. BIS’s decision also took into account that the proposed changes are not ECCN specific and are more focused on how the ECCN information is being communicated to the public. Each of the proposed structural changes this rule would implement improves the clarity of the CCL and is further described below. (A) Revision of License Exceptions section heading. This rule would revise the License Exceptions section heading to add greater specificity. This rule would revise the section heading by changing it from ‘‘License Exceptions’’ to the more specific section heading of ‘‘ListBased License Exceptions (See Part 740 for a complete listing of license exceptions and requirements).’’ This rule would also add a parenthetical after the revised section heading to provide a cross reference to the license exceptions part of the EAR. This rule would add this cross reference because a definitive determination regarding whether a license exception may be used for a specific ECCN can only be made after also reviewing the applicable license exceptions provisions in part 740 of the EAR. (B) Removal of the License Exception STA paragraphs. In order to implement the changes described above under (A) Revision of License Exceptions section heading, this rule also proposes removing the License Exception STA paragraph in the License Exceptions section of the following forty-nine ECCNs: 1A002, 1C001, 1C007, 1C010, 1C012, 1D002, 1E001, 1E002, 2D001, 2E001, 2E002, 3A002, 3B001, 3D001, 3E001, 4A001, 4D001, 4E001, 5A001, 5B001, 5D001, 5E001, VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 6A001, 6A002, 6A003, 6A004, 6A006, 6A008, 6B008, 6D001, 6D003, 6E001, 6E002, 7D003, 7E001, 7E002, 8A001, 8A002, 8D001, 8D002, 8E001, 8E002, 9B001, 9D001, 9D002, 9D004, 9E001, 9E002 and 9E003. This rule would move the text of those License Exception STA paragraphs to a new section titled ‘‘Special Conditions for STA.’’ This rule proposes creating this new section immediately following the proposed ‘‘List-Based License Exceptions (See Part 740 for a complete listing of license exceptions and requirements)’’ instruction, because the License Exception STA paragraphs do not perform the same function as the other list-based license exception paragraphs. This rule does not propose any changes to the regulatory text included in the current License Exception STA paragraphs of these ECCNs. The changes proposed in this rule are limited to proposing a new section heading and then moving the existing License Exception STA paragraphs in these forty-nine ECCNs to the new STA section heading. (C) Adding a cross-reference after Country Chart. This rule proposes revising the ‘‘Country Chart’’ paragraph heading in the License Requirements section to add a parenthetical to indicate where the public can find the Country Chart. The revised Country Chart paragraph heading would now read ‘‘Country Chart (See Supp. No. 1 to part 738).’’ Not all ECCNs include a Country Chart paragraph and a small number of ECCNs do not rely on the Commerce Country Chart for determining destination-based license requirements. Most ECCNs, however, are structured to refer to the information contained in the Country Chart paragraph in Supplement No. 1 to part 738 to identify destination-based license requirements. The changes in this rule would clarify that for the ECCNs that use this structure, exporters, reexporters and transferors need to refer to the Country Chart in Supplement No. 1 to part 738 to determine destinationbased license requirements. For experienced exporters, reexporters, and transferors, this structure is well understood. The new cross references would be primarily intended for those exporters, reexporters, and transferors who are new to the EAR and who may not as readily understand the relationship between this standard ECCN paragraph and Supplement No. 1 to part 738. The new parenthetical phrase at the end of the Country Chart paragraph would make the relationship explicit. PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 (D) Adding a new ‘‘Reporting Requirements’’ section to certain ECCNs. Some ECCNs include references to reporting requirements. They are typically found either in License Requirement notes or in notes to the ‘‘items’’ paragraphs in the List of Items Controlled section. BIS has adopted a standardized paragraph structure for ECCNs, as much as possible, to assist the public in classifying items. A standardized paragraph structure helps the public classify items by putting the information contained in an ECCN into a useable and easily recognizable format. The current reporting requirements, which are found in various sections and paragraphs of the ECCN, deviate from this type of standardized structure. This rule proposes to add a new section heading called Reporting Requirements where the existing reporting requirements found in ECCNs would be consolidated to address this issue. This rule does not propose any changes to the scope of current reporting requirements. This proposed standardized structure would aid in compliance with the reporting requirements and assist exporters in more quickly and easily identifying ECCNs subject to reporting requirements. The rule proposes adding the new Reporting Requirements section heading immediately before the License Exceptions section, which, as proposed above, would now be revised to read ‘‘List-Based License Exceptions (See Part 740 for a complete listing of license exceptions and requirements).’’ To implement this change in Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the Commerce Control List), this rule would remove the ‘‘License Requirements Notes’’ paragraphs in the License Requirements section in the following thirty-nine Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs): 1A002, 1C007, 1C010, 1D002, 1E001, 1E002, 2D001, 2E001, 2E002, 3A002, 3D001, 3E001, 4A001, 4E001, 5A001, 5B001, 5D001, 5E001, 6A001, 6A002, 6A004, 6A006, 6A008, 6D001, 6D003, 6E001, 6E002, 8A001, 8A002, 8D001, 8D002, 8E001, 8E002, 9B001, 9D001, 9D002, 9E001, 9E002 and 9E003. In these thirty-nine ECCNs, this rule would add the new section entitled ‘‘REPORTING REQUIREMENTS See § 743.1 of the EAR for reporting requirements for exports under License Exceptions, Special Comprehensive Licenses, and Validated End-User authorizations’’ after the License Requirements section in each of these respective ECCNs. This proposed rule would also make changes to the new Reporting Requirements section to ensure the text conforms to the listing E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 of authorizations in § 743.1 that require reporting to BIS. (4) Removal of Fourteen ECCNs Subject to the Exclusive Jurisdiction of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (A) Removal of fourteen ECCNs. The CCL includes forty-nine ECCNs that refer to items that are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Department of Energy, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or the Department of State. They constitute approximately 10% of the total number of ECCNs on the CCL. Of the forty-nine ECCNs, fourteen ECCNs are subject to the export licensing authority of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission at 10 CFR part 110. This rule proposes removing these fourteen ECCNs from the CCL. The fourteen ECCNs are 0A001, 0B001, 0B002, 0B003, 0B004, 0B005, 0B006, 0C001, 0C002, 0C004, 0C005, 0C006, 0C201 and 1C012. The ECCNs that BIS proposes to remove are Nuclear Trigger List items, so the jurisdiction of these items is already established under U.S. export controls and, as explained below, there is no need to include this additional cross reference from the CCL to the controls maintained by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. BIS’s original purpose for including these ECCNs on the CCL was to supplement § 734.3 (Items subject to the EAR) under paragraph (b)(1), which describes items that are not subject to the EAR because they are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of another agency of the U.S. Government, and to supplement the jurisdiction information for the other U.S. Government agencies found in Supplement No. 3 to part 730 (Other U.S. Government Departments and Agencies with Export Control Responsibilities). BIS also included these ECCNs to better align the CCL with the European Union’s control lists that are primarily based on the multilateral export control regimes. However, by including references to other agencies’ controls in specific ECCNs there is the potential that such ECCN references will become out of date if the other agencies update their respective regulations and the corresponding changes are not made in the EAR cross reference in a timely manner. For example, on September 7, 2011 (76 FR 55278), the National Nuclear Security Administration, Department of Energy (DOE) published a notice of proposed rulemaking that proposed various amendments to regulations concerning unclassified assistance to foreign atomic energy activities. These proposed revisions were intended to reduce uncertainties for industry users VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 concerning which foreign nuclear related activities by U.S. persons are ‘‘generally authorized’’ under the regulation and which activities require a ‘‘specific authorization’’ from the Secretary of Energy. However, if the ECCNs on the CCL that currently refer to DOE and NRC controls are not updated, the uncertainties for exporters, reexporters and transferors would increase because of inconsistencies in the different regulations. Given that the DOE and NRC respective regulations are controlling in this area and these ECCNs are only acting as a cross reference, BIS is proposing the removal of these ECCNs. BIS has determined there still is utility in including general cross references to other agencies’ controls. Thus, this rule proposes to include a general cross reference at the beginning of the CCL in a revised § 774.1 (Introduction) that would contain those ECCNs that have been reserved and are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of another agency of the U.S. Government. In addition, the related control paragraphs of ECCNs would contain cross references to controls of other agencies to the extent that such controls are similar to or related to the controls of certain ECCNs. The remaining thirty-five of the fortynine ECCNs refer to items that are ‘‘subject to the ITAR,’’ which is maintained by the Department of State. Given the ongoing review of the United States Munitions List (USML) that is being conducted under the ECR Initiative, it is premature to propose removing or revising these thirty-five ECCNs. In addition, given the number of cross references, in particular in Categories 7 and 9 of the CCL, to these thirty-five ECCNs, BIS determined that removing the ECCNs that are ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ should be addressed at a later time once the review of the USML is completed. (B) Changes to the CCL to conform to the removal of these fourteen ECCNs. In addition to removing the fourteen ECCNs, this rule would also make conforming changes to eleven ECCNs that would be retained on the CCL. The ECCNs that would be revised by this rule contain references to one or more of the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed. The removal of the fourteen ECCNs should not impact the existing controls for items subject to the EAR. However, given the interrelationship between the fourteen ECCNs removed and the eleven ECCNs where conforming changes would be required, BIS is particularly interested in any comments regarding whether the proposed changes PO 00000 Frm 00009 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 71221 accurately capture the intent of the previous references (i.e., the references to the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed in the eleven ECCNs that are retained on the CCL). The rule would make conforming changes to the following eleven ECCNs: 1A290, 1C107, 1C240, 1C298, 3A225, 3A226, 3A227, 3A233, 3A999, 6A005 and 6A205. This rule’s proposed revisions consist of the following: ECCNs 3A225, 3A226, 3A227, 3A233, 6A005 and 6A205. This rule would revise six ECCN headings (3A225, 3A226, 3A227, 3A233, 6A005 and 6A205). This rule would take this approach to minimize the number of changes that would need to be made, while still ensuring the headings would reflect the intended scope of these six ECCNs. On the CCL, these six ECCN headings include references to some of the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed as a shorthand way of communicating the scope of items controlled. Therefore, the removal of these fourteen ECCNs would require that a broader description be added to the headings of the ECCNs that would be retained. If only one of the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed is referenced, then BIS believes that in most cases it is easy to incorporate the text of the removed ECCN into the heading of the ECCN that would be retained. However, there are certain ECCNs that contain multiple references to the ECCNs that would be removed. In the cases where multiple ECCNs are referenced, an effort to insert all the text into the headings as a conforming change would not be feasible. To address this issue, this rule would add heading notes, which would provide more space to describe the substance of the ECCNs that would be removed from the respective headings. The end of the revised headings would include a reference to the heading notes to alert persons classifying their items to review the heading notes as they determine whether their item in question was classified under the removed ECCN. ECCNs 1A290, 1C107 and 1E001. This rule would revise three ‘‘related controls’’ paragraphs in ECCNs 1A290, 1C107 and 1E001. These changes would revise references to one or more of the fourteen removed ECCNs in each of the three remaining ECCNs and replace them with more descriptive explanations in the related controls. These changes would reduce the need for cross-referencing in the CCL to the fourteen removed ECCNs. Another alternative would be to take the opposite approach and instead simply use very broad descriptors for the types E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 71222 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules of items that are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of another export control agency of the U.S. Government. BIS would welcome comments from the public regarding whether this alternative approach of simply using broad descriptors or some other approach not yet considered by BIS would be better than what is proposed. ECCN 1E001. This rule would also revise 1E001 by removing the reference to 1C012 in the License Exception STA paragraph in the License Exceptions section. This ECCN is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of another agency. Thus, License Exception STA could never be used as the authority to export an item described in 1C012. ECCN 1C298. This rule would revise one CCL note in ECCN 1C298 to remove references to one or more of the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed by this rule. (C) Adding a general cross reference to the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed. In § 774.1 (Introduction), this rule would redesignate the introductory text of the section as paragraph (a) with the heading ‘‘Scope of the control list,’’ and would add a paragraph (b) with the heading ‘‘ECCN cross-references for items subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of another agency.’’ The introductory text of paragraph (b) would indicate that prior to the date of publication in the Federal Register of the final rule that would remove these fourteen ECCNs, the CCL contained fourteen ECCNs that were included as cross references on the CCL to the export control regulations administered by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Paragraph (b) would identify ECCNs formerly listed on the CCL that were subject to the jurisdiction of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission at 10 CFR part 110. This rule would add a note to paragraph (b) to indicate that ECCNs 0D001 and 0E001 (ECCNs that are proposed to be retained on the CCL) were subject to the jurisdiction of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission at 10 CFR part 110 or jurisdiction of the Department of the Energy at 10 CFR part 810, but also have certain portions that, as of the date of publication of this rule, were ‘‘subject to the ITAR.’’ These ECCNs would be retained on the CCL as a cross reference. Although the Export Administration Act expired on August 20, 2001, the President, through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002), as extended by the Notice of August 15, 2012, 77 FR 49699 (August 16, 2012), has continued the Export Administration Regulations in effect under the International VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 Emergency Economic Powers Act. BIS continues to carry out the provisions of the Export Administration Act, as appropriate and to the extent permitted by law, pursuant to Executive Order 13222. Rulemaking Requirements 1. Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distribute impacts, and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This rule has been designated a ‘‘significant regulatory action,’’ although not economically significant, under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the rule has been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). 2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to nor 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 regulation involves collections previously approved by OMB under control numbers 0694–0088, ‘‘Multi-Purpose Application,’’ which carries a burden hour estimate of 43.8 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. Total burden hours associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694–0088 are expected to decrease slightly as a result of this rule because of the proposed removal of ECCN 8A918. You may send comments regarding the collection of information associated with this rule, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to Jasmeet K. Seehra, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), by email to Jasmeet_K._Seehra@omb.eop.gov, or by fax to (202) 395–7285. 3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications as that term is defined under E.O. 13132. 4. The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), as amended by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis for any rule subject to the notice and comment rulemaking PO 00000 Frm 00010 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) or any other statute, unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Under section 605(b) of the RFA, however, if the head of an agency certifies that a rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, the statute does not require the agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility analysis. Pursuant to section 605(b), the Chief Counsel for Regulation, Department of Commerce, submitted a memorandum to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy, Small Business Administration, certifying that this proposed rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Number of Small Entities The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) does not collect data on the size of entities that apply for and are issued export licenses. Although BIS is unable to estimate the exact number of small entities that would be impacted by this rule, it does acknowledge that this rule will impact some unknown number. Economic Impact This proposed rule is part of the Administration’s Export Control Reform (ECR) Initiative. As part of the ECR Initiative, BIS published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking on December 9, 2010 seeking, among other things, public comments on how descriptions of items controlled on the CCL could be made clearer. The December 9, 2010 notice solicited public suggestions on ways to improve the descriptions of items on the CCL to better reflect internationally accepted standards and use industry standard terms and references. Where objective criteria are missing from ECCNs, BIS sought specific suggestions on what technical parameters, characteristics, thresholds, and capabilities should be used to describe the item. BIS requested that all suggestions in this area should include proposed revisions to the text of ECCNs or proposed Technical Notes to ECCNs that explain terms or phrases used in the ECCN. Fifty public comments were received totaling over 1400 pages in suggestions for how the CCL could be improved. The vast majority of suggested changes that can be implemented unilaterally by the U.S. Government involve improvements to the clarity of the CCL. These changes are included in this proposed rule. BIS also solicited in the December 9, 2010 notice comments on how the CCL could be made more E:\FR\FM\29NOP2.SGM 29NOP2 pmangrum on DSK3VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS2 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 230 / Thursday, November 29, 2012 / Proposed Rules ‘‘positive,’’ but given the CCL is already primarily a ‘‘positive’’ control list, most of the comments in this area focused on ways to improve the overall use of the CCL and public understanding of the CCL. This rule focuses on implementing a large number of changes that would make the CCL clearer. The significance of any particular change, when taken by itself, may not appear to make a dramatic improvement to the clarity of the CCL, but the cumulative impact of these various proposed changes would make a significant improvement to the CCL. BIS believes this improved clarity would also make the control list easier to use, in particular for those reviewing the CCL for the first time. Improving the clarity of the CCL as described in this rule would reduce the burden on small entities (and other entities as well) by increasing the public’s confidence in self-classifying items on the CCL thereby reducing the amount of time it takes for the public to classify items using the CCL. The CCL, as noted in the December 9, 2010 notice, should be written in a clear way that allows someone who knows the technical parameters and capabilities of an item to review the CCL, even if it is their first time reviewing the CCL, and consistently and easily come to the right classification determination. Defining and using terms consistently, clarifying control parameters to better reflect the intent of the controls, removing references on the CCL that do not serve a clear purpose, and ensuring that the controls are consistent with U.S. Government commitments to the multilateral export control regimes, would make the CCL clearer and improve the ease of use of the CCL. This would reduce the burden on small entities (and all other entities as well). Ambiguity on the CCL creates a burden for small entities (and all other entities as well), so changes that make the CCL clearer would result in less burden on these entities. One of the comments submitted in response to the December 9, 2010 notice indicated that the overall consistency of how the CCL is structured was an area where the CCL could be improved. The current CCL does have many common structural elements, such as the ECCNs, Product Groups (A–E) and Categories (0–9) following the same basic structure, but in reviewing this comment and other public comments, BIS determined that additional changes could be made to create greater consistency in how the ECCN information was being communicated to the public, such as creating a new ‘‘Reporting Requirements’’ paragraph to make it VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:13 Nov 28, 2012 Jkt 229001 easier for exporters classifying items to quickly determine whether a particular item was subject to reporting requirements. Other structural changes, such as the proposed changes to the License Exceptions section of the ECCNs would assist the public in more easily understanding the relationship between the License Exceptions section in ECCNs and part 740. These structural changes will reduce the burden for small entities (and all other entities as well) by making the CCL easier to use and more clearly communicating the relationship between the CCL and other key provisions of the EAR, such as parts 738 and 740. In practice, the greatest impact of this rule on small entities would likely be reduced administrative costs and reduced delay for exports of items. Without this rule, a company or person may have submitted a classification to BIS because the CCL was not clear from their perspective regarding the scope of items controlled. BIS supports and encourages the public to submit classification requests when a person is unsure of an item’s classification, but the CCL should be written in a clear fashion whereby a person who understands the technical parameters and capabilities of their item does not feel a need to submit a classification request in order to classify an item subject to the EAR. In addition, for small entities (and all other entities), if the CCL is clear and easy to use, a company or person may find it easier and less expensive to train others to use the CCL. If there is perceived ambiguity on the CCL that requires some degree of interpretation to understand what is controlled, such ambiguity makes it more difficult to train an entity’s personnel to use the CCL. This is not the type of control list BIS seeks. Creating control lists that clearly communicate the scope of items controlled on the CCL and the USML are one of the objectives of the ongoing ECR Initiative, as was referenced in the December 9, 2010 notice. This proposed rule is not meant to create any substantive changes. Therefore, this proposed rule would not cause any economic impact and would result in no additional compliance costs. Conclusion BIS is unable to determine the precise number of small entities that would be affected by this rule. Based on the facts and conclusions set forth above, BIS believes that any burdens imposed by this rule would be offset by the improvements made to the clarity of the CCL and the reduction in time and cost required for small entities to classify PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 71223 their items using the CCL, along with understanding how the CCL relates to other provisions of the EAR. For these reasons, the Chief Counsel for Regulation of the Department of Commerce certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the Small Business Administration that this rule, if adopted in final form, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

VerDate Mar<15>2010 7. Section 772.1 is amended by adding a definition for the term ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ to read as follows: § 774.1 Introduction. (a) Scope of the control list. In this part, references to the EAR are references to 15 CFR chapter VII, subchapter C. The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) maintains the Commerce Control List (CCL) that includes ‘‘items’’—i.e., ‘‘commodities,’’ ‘‘software,’’ and ‘‘technology’’—subject to the authority of BIS. The CCL does not include items exclusively controlled for export by another department or agency of the U.S. Government. In instances where other agencies administer controls over related items, entries in the CCL will often contain a reference to these controls. In addition, those items ‘‘subject to the EAR’’ but not identified on the CCL are identified by the designator ‘‘EAR99.’’ See § 734.2(a) of the EAR for items that are ‘‘subject to the EAR.’’ EAR Part 738 contains an explanation of the organization of the CCL and its relationship to the Country Chart. (b) ECCN cross-references for items subject to exclusive jurisdiction of another agency. Prior to November 29, 2012, the CCL contained certain ECCNs that were only included as cross references to items subject to the export control regulations administered by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 ECCNs formerly listed on the CCL that, as of November 29, 2012 were subject to the export licensing authority of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission at 10 CFR part 110 are: 0A001, 0B001, 0B002, 0B003, 0B004, 0B005, 0B006, 0C001, 0C002, 0C004, 0C005, 0C006, 0C201 and 1C012. Note to paragraph (b): As of November 29, 2012 ECCN 0D001 is subject to the export licensing authority of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (see 10 CFR part 110), and ECCN 0E001 is subject to the export licensing authority of the Department of Energy (see 10 CFR part 810), but certain portions of these entries are also ‘‘subject to the ITAR’’ (see 22 CFR parts 120 through 130). These ECCNs are retained on the CCL as a cross reference. (c) Where to find the CCL? The CCL is contained in Supplement No. 1 to this part, and Supplement No. 2 to this part contains the General Technology and Software Notes relevant to entries contained in the CCL. Supplement No. 1 to Part 774— [Amended] 10. Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the Commerce Control List) is amended by removing the following Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs): 0A001, 0B001, 0B002, 0B003, 0B004, 0B005, 0B006, 0C001, 0C002, 0C004, 0C005, 0C006, 0C201and 1C012. 11.

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On December 9, 2010, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) 
published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking entitled Commerce 
Control List: Revising Descriptions of Items and Foreign Availability 
as part of the President's Export Control Reform (ECR) Initiative. The 
December 9, 2010 notice sought, among other things, public comments on 
how descriptions of items controlled on the Commerce Control List (CCL) 
could be made clearer. This proposed rule would implement changes 
identified by BIS and the public that would make the CCL clearer. This 
rule would only implement changes that can be made to the CCL without 
requiring changes to multilateral export control regime guidelines or 
lists. However, BIS has identified changes that would require a 
decision of a multilateral regime to implement. For those changes, the 
U.S. Government is developing regime change proposals for consideration 
by members of those multilateral export control regimes. BIS will 
implement those changes in separate rulemakings, if approved by the 
respective multilateral export control regimes.

DATES: Comments must be received by BIS no later than January 28, 2013.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by any of the following methods:
     Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov. 
The identification number for this rulemaking is BIS-2012-0044.
     By email directly to publiccomments@bis.doc.gov. Include 
RIN 0694-AF37 in the subject line.
     By mail or delivery to Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau 
of Industry and Security, U.S. Department of Commerce, Room 2099B, 14th 
Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20230. Refer to RIN 
0694-AF37.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

Background

    On December 9, 2010 (75 FR 76664), the Bureau of Industry and 
Security (BIS) published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking 
entitled Commerce Control List: Revising Descriptions of Items and 
Foreign Availability as part of the President's Export Control Reform 
(ECR) Initiative. The December 9 notice sought, among other things, 
public comments on how descriptions of items controlled on the Commerce 
Control List (CCL) could be made clearer. Although these revisions 
originated with the ECR initiative, this proposed rule is entirely 
consistent in spirit and substance with Executive Order 13563, under 
which agencies are to conduct retrospective analyses of their 
regulations to identify and remedy any unnecessary compliance burden 
caused by rules that are unduly complex, outmoded, inconsistent, or 
overlapping. In Executive Order 13563, the President directed each 
agency to review its ``existing significant regulations, and consider 
how best to promote retrospective analysis of rules that may be 
outmoded, ineffective, insufficient, or excessively burdensome, and to 
modify, streamline, expand, or repeal them in accordance with what has 
been learned.'' In response to this directive, Commerce released on 
August 23, 2011 a plan for the review of its regulations. This proposed 
rule was identified by the Department as part of its plan for the 
retrospective analysis of regulations. The Department's plan may be 
found at: https://open.commerce.gov/news/2011/08/23/commerce-plan-retrospective-analysis-existing-rules.
    This proposed rule would implement changes identified by BIS and 
the public that would make the CCL clearer. This rule would only 
implement changes that can be made to the CCL without requiring a 
multilateral regime change. However, BIS has identified changes that 
would make the CCL clearer, but would require a multilateral export 
control regime change to implement. The U.S. Government is developing 
some of those changes into regime change proposals for consideration by 
members of those multilateral export control regimes. BIS will 
implement those changes in separate rulemakings, if approved by the 
respective multilateral export control regimes.
    This proposed rule will identify new phrases or headings within 
double quotations. The EAR identifies terms defined in part 772 with 
double quotations as well. Please note that not all of the terms set 
forth within quotations in this proposed rule are defined in part 772. 
The additional double quotations around new phrases, headings, or 
commonly used words, are used in the Background section of this 
proposed rule to assist in the readability of the text.
    This proposed rule includes changes described under four headings:
    (1) Clarifications to existing CCL controls, including the use of 
the terms ``parts'' and ``components'' on the CCL;
    (2) Changes to conform the CCL to the multilateral export control 
regime control lists and previous amendments to the EAR;
    (3) Structural changes to improve the clarity of the CCL; and
    (4) Removal of fourteen ECCNs subject to the exclusive jurisdiction 
of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

(1) Clarifications to Existing CCL Controls, Including the Use of the 
Terms ``Parts'' and ``Components'' on the CCL

    The majority of changes proposed in this rule would amend the CCL 
without changing the scope of the controls. However, this rule does 
propose changes that would affect the scope of one ECCN. Specifically, 
this rule proposes to remove ECCN 8A918 and add certain marine boilers 
to ECCN 8A992, where they would be controlled for AT and UN reasons. 
This change is described in more detail below under the heading ``ECCN 
8A918.''
    The bulk of the changes this rule would make to the CCL are non-
substantive and would provide additional regulatory guidance to people 
classifying items subject to the EAR. One proposed change would be to 
clarify the scope of ECCNs by providing clearer definitions of the 
terms ``parts'' and ``components,'' which is discussed below. The 
changes BIS proposes in this rule in this section are limited to 
aligning with the definitions of ``part'' and ``component'' included in 
a proposed rule published on July 15, 2011 (76 FR 41958) entitled 
``Proposed Revisions to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR): 
Control of Items the President Determines No Longer Warrant Control 
Under the United States Munitions List (USML).'' (hereinafter ``the 
July 15, 2011 rule'') These proposed changes include adding

[[Page 71215]]

additional references to ``part'' and ``component'' where needed in 
certain ECCNs to clarify that the scope of those ECCNs also extends to 
``parts'' and ``components'' even if previously those ECCNs may have 
only referenced part or component, but not referenced both part and 
component together. The proposed definitions of ``part'' and 
``component'' are provided below, along with a discussion of the 
context for the need to make certain conforming changes proposed in 
this rule. The proposed conforming changes included in this rule would 
not be published in final form until the revised definitions of 
``part'' and ``component'' are published in final form in a separate 
rule.
    BIS is not attempting, with the proposed changes adding additional 
references to ``parts'' and ``components,'' to change the scope of what 
the affected ECCNs control. If, however, the public believes any such 
changes would change the present scope of the affected ECCNs, then the 
public should submit comments that identify such changes and explain 
how the changes would cause the ECCNs to deviate from their present 
scope. In addition, the public is encouraged to review the entire CCL 
to identify and comment on any other ECCN that uses the terms ``parts'' 
or ``components'' where additional changes may be warranted to conform 
to the intended scope of those ECCNs.
    The proposed clarifying changes are as follows:
    (A) Revisions to ECCN headings to clarify meaning.
    Revision to the headings of twenty-four ECCNs. In Supplement No. 1 
to part 774--The Commerce Control List, this rule would revise, to 
enhance clarity, the headings of the following twenty-four ECCNs: 
1A995, 1B115, 2A291, 2B005, 2B109, 2B352, 2B991, 2B992, 3B991, 4A994, 
5A991, 5D992, 5E992, 6A006, 6A996, 6A997, 6A998, 6B995, 6D993, 7A103, 
7A107, 8A992, 9A106 and 9B991. This rule would also clarify the 
relationship between the headings and the ``items'' paragraph in the 
List of Items Controlled section of these twenty-four ECCNs. For 
example, in certain ECCNs, the entries include an ``items'' paragraph, 
but the ECCN heading does not direct people to review the ``items'' 
paragraph. This rule would add the phrase ``(see List of Items 
Controlled)'' to these ECCN headings. For other ECCNs listed above, the 
heading includes the phrase ``(see List of Items Controlled),'' but the 
placement of the phrase is not correct in terms of what BIS intended to 
control in the ECCN. If the phrase appears at the end of the heading, 
then that means the ``items'' paragraph in the List of Items Controlled 
section is the exclusive, complete list of the items the ECCN controls. 
If, however, the phrase appears in the middle of the heading, then that 
means only that portion of the heading prior to the phrase ``(see List 
of Items Controlled)'' is specifically identified in the ``items'' 
paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section, and that the 
remaining part of the heading (i.e., the rest of the heading after the 
phrase ``(see List of Items Controlled)'') is an exclusive, complete 
description.
    The placement of the phrase ``(see List of Items Controlled)'' is 
important for ``parts'' and ``components'' referred to in ECCN 
headings. If ``parts'' and ``components'' references appear before the 
phrase, then that means the entry only controls ``parts'' and 
``components'' specifically identified in the ``items'' paragraph in 
the List of Items Controlled section. If, however, the phrase is in the 
middle of the heading and the reference to ``parts'' and ``components'' 
appears after the phrase--such as ``and specially designed ``parts'' 
and ``components'' therefor''--that means the ECCN would control 
specially designed ``parts'' and ``components'' for any item identified 
in the ``items'' paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section. 
This rule does not address the definition of ``specially designed,'' 
which was proposed in a separate Federal Register notice on June 19, 
2012 (77 FR 36409), but rather the relationship between these headings 
and the ``items'' paragraph in each of these respective ECCNs.
    BIS is not attempting, with the proposed changes to the headings, 
to change the scope of what the affected ECCNs control. If, however, 
the public believes any such changes would alter the present scope of 
these ECCNs, then the public should submit comments that identify such 
changes and explain how the changes would cause the ECCNs to deviate 
from their present scope. In addition, the public is encouraged to 
review the entire CCL to identify and comment on any other ECCN 
headings that could be made clearer.
    Revisions to thirteen ECCNs. In addition, this rule would add the 
phrase ``as follows'' to the headings of the following thirteen ECCNs: 
0A981, 5D991, 5D992, 5E992, 6A992, 6A994, 6A995, 6A997, 6A998, 6B995, 
6C994, 6D993 and 9B991, for consistency with the structure of other 
ECCNs on the CCL. The phrase ``as follows'' is used on some of the 
multilateral export control regime control lists, which is why the 
phrase is used on the CCL, including in some unilateral ECCNs to 
conform to the structure of the regime-based ECCNs. The multilateral 
export control regimes do not use the phrase ``(see List of Items 
Controlled),'' but this phrase is used in many of the multilateral-
based ECCNs on the CCL. BIS seeks greater consistency in how CCL 
headings are constructed, in particular how these two phrases are used 
in the ECCN headings. BIS welcomes additional suggestions for how these 
two phrases can be used more consistently on the CCL and whether one 
term or another should be used instead of using these two phrases 
together in many ECCN entries.
    ECCN 1D993. This rule would revise the heading of 1D993 to remove 
the term ``equipment'' for consistency with the definition of 
``equipment'' proposed in the July 15, 2011 rule. This ECCN currently 
refers to equipment or materials, but the only ECCNs cross referenced 
in the heading are for controls on materials, so the term equipment is 
not needed in 1D993.
    ECCNs 0D001, 3D980, 3E980, 4D980 and 4E980. This rule would revise 
the headings of ECCNs 0D001, 3D980, 3E980, 4D980 and 4E980, by removing 
the term ``items'' and adding the term ``commodities'' in its place. 
This rule would make this change because in the context of these five 
ECCN headings, the term ``commodities'' is more accurate and specific 
regarding the scope of these entries.
    ECCN 2B998. The heading of 2B998 uses the undefined term ``units.'' 
To add greater specificity regarding what the term ``unit'' is intended 
to cover in this ECCN, this rule proposes to modify the heading by 
removing the term ``units'' and adding the term ``circuit boards.'' 
This change would clarify that ``circuit boards'' are the items covered 
under the heading of 2B998.
    ECCNs 3A980 and 3A981. This rule would add the term ``therefor'' 
immediately before the term ``n.e.s.'' to the headings of ECCNs 3A980 
and 3A981. This rule would make this change to emphasize that these 
ECCNs refer only to components of the subject voice print equipment and 
polygraph equipment.
    ECCNs 5A001 and 5A991. This rule would correct the spelling of the 
word ``antennae'' in the ``unit'' paragraph of 5A001 and the ``items'' 
paragraph (f) of 5A991. This word should be spelled as ``antennas'' to 
reflect the intended meaning in these two ECCNs.
    ECCN 6C992. This rule would correct a grammatical error in 6C992 by 
removing the word ``which'' and adding in its place the word ``that.''
    ECCN 9B002. This rule would correct a capitalization error in the 
heading of 9B002 by making the uppercase ``S'' in the phrase (See List 
of Items Controlled)

[[Page 71216]]

lower case. This rule would make this change for consistency with other 
references to this phrase on the CCL.
    (B) Clarifying the use of the terms ``parts'' and ``components'' on 
the CCL.
    The July 15, 2011 rule included proposed definitions for the terms 
``parts'' and ``components.'' The July 15, 2011 rule proposed defining 
``parts'' as ``any single unassembled element of a component, 
accessory, or attachment which is not normally subject to disassembly 
without the destruction or the impairment of design use. Examples 
include threaded fasteners (e.g., screws, bolts, nuts, nut plates, 
studs, inserts), other fasteners (e.g., clips, rivets, pins), common 
hardware (e.g., washers, spacers, insulators, grommets, bushings), 
springs and wire.''
    The July 15, 2011 rule proposed defining ``components'' as an item 
that is useful only when used in conjunction with an ``end item.'' 
Components are also commonly referred to as assemblies. For purposes of 
this definition, an assembly and a component are the same. There are 
two types of ``components'': ``Major components'' and ``minor 
components.'' A ``major component'' includes any assembled element 
which forms a portion of an ``end item'' without which the end item is 
inoperable. For example, for an automobile, components include the 
engine, transmission, and battery. If you do not have all those items, 
the automobile will not function, or function as effectively. A ``minor 
component'' includes any assembled element of a ``major component.'' 
``Components'' consist of ``parts.''' References in the CCL to 
``components'' include both ``major components'' and ``minor 
components.''
    Another example for applying the definition of ``components'' in 
the automobile context would be a fuel pump and the engine. Under this 
additional example, the fuel pump is a minor component of an 
automobile, as it is an assembled element of a ``major component,'' the 
engine. While the car will not function without the fuel pump, it is 
not a ``major component'' because it is integrated into a ``major 
component,'' the engine.
    The July 15, 2011 rule indicated BIS would review the use of these 
two terms on the CCL and would likely make clarifications to CCL 
entries to conform to the proposed definitions included in the July 15, 
2011 rule under a separate rulemaking. This proposed rule addresses the 
use of the terms ``parts'' and ``components'' on the CCL to ensure 
these terms would be used in a manner consistent with the proposed 
definitions included in the July 15, 2011 rule.
    The terms ``parts'' and ``components'' have sometimes been used 
interchangeably in various ECCNs. The proposed definitions included in 
the July 15, 2011 rule were developed to provide clear, distinct 
definitions for each of these terms and other terms such as ``end 
item,'' ``system,'' and ``accessories and attachments,'' to align with 
the definitions of these terms in the International Traffic in Arms 
Regulations (ITAR). See 22 CFR Sec.  121.8. Such distinctions are 
significant for purposes of determining whether an ECCN applies to an 
item to be exported.
    Under the July 15, 2011, construct for the definitions of ``parts'' 
and ``components,'' if an ECCN does not include a control on ``parts'' 
or ``components,'' then that ECCN would not, by definition, apply to 
the export of any particular ``parts'' or ``components'' meeting the 
respective definitions. However, as referenced above, the terms 
``parts'' and components'' have sometimes been used interchangeably, so 
to ensure that once these definitions of ``parts'' and ``components'' 
are added to the EAR that the scope of existing controls are not 
narrowed, this rule proposes to add in additional references to 
``part'' or ``component,'' in particular for ECCNs that are based on 
the multilateral export control regime control lists. Under the current 
EAR many of these ECCNs based on the multilateral control lists only 
list ``components,'' but not ``parts.'' However, the U.S. Government 
and other multilateral regime members have interpreted these ECCNs as 
also including ``parts.'' BIS proposes in this rule to add additional 
references to ``parts'' in these ECCNs, so the U.S. Government can 
ensure that it is meeting its multilateral export control regime 
commitments. Over the mid- to long-term, BIS will reach out to the 
respective multilateral regimes and discuss whether certain ECCNs 
should be limited to ``components'' or ``parts'' or some other subset 
of ``components,'' such as major components or minor components.
    Many of the unilateral-based ECCNs on the CCL reference ``parts,'' 
but not ``components.'' For unilateral-based ECCNs, BIS has more 
discretion in whether these ECCNs should control ``parts'' and 
``components.'' However, for consistency with the approach proposed for 
the multilateral based ECCNs in this rule and to ensure the scope of 
the unilateral ECCNs is not changed, this rule proposes adding 
additional references to ``parts'' and ``components'' as needed in the 
unilateral ECCNs to conform to how BIS has interpreted the scope of 
these ECCNs in the past.
    To conform to the proposed definitions of ``parts'' and 
``components,'' BIS is proposing a number of changes to the CCL to 
incorporate the terms ``parts'' and ``components'' in specific ECCNs. 
The primary purpose of these ECCN changes is to conform to those 
proposed definitions and to ensure that no changes are made to the 
current U.S. Government interpretation of these ECCN entries. The 
public should keep in mind the overall purpose is not to change the 
current scope of controls, but rather to clarify the scope of these 
ECCNs consistent with the July 15, 2011 rule definitions and how items 
are currently classified under these ECCNs.
    These proposed changes would revise the following one hundred fifty 
eight ECCNs on the CCL where the term ``parts'' or ``components'' is 
used, as identified and described below in more detail:
    ``Parts'' is used, but ``specially designed''``components'' or `` 
``components'' as follows'' is intended or ``specially designed'' 
``parts'' and ``components'' is intended. In three ECCNs, the term 
``parts'' is used, but the term ``specially designed'' ``components'' 
is intended. This rule would remove the term ``parts'' and replace it 
with the terms ``specially designed'' ``components'' in the following 
three ECCNs: 0A979, 3A980 and 3A981. This rule would remove the term 
``part'' and replace it with the terms ``specially designed'' ``parts'' 
and ``components'' to the following four ECCNs: 0A982, 0A983, 0A985, 
0A986. In ECCNs 0A984 and 0A987, the term ``parts'' is used, but the 
term ``components'' or `` ``components'' as follows'' is intended. This 
rule would remove the term ``parts'' and replace it with the term 
``components'' or `` ``components'' as follows'' in these ECCNs.
    ``The hybrid ``component parts'' is used, but ``parts'' and 
``components'' is intended. In certain ECCNs the hybrid undefined term 
``component parts'' is used, but the intent is ``parts'' and 
``components.'' This rule would change ECCN 3A201 to bring its meaning 
into alignment with this intent by changing ``component parts'' to 
``parts'' and ``components.'' This same issue appears in some of the 
``xY018'' ECCNs on the CCL, but given those ECCNs will be addressed in 
the ongoing USML to CCL process as those items in the ``xY018'' ECCNs 
are moved to the ``600 series'' ECCNs, this rule does not propose 
making changes to those ``xY018'' entries.

[[Page 71217]]

    The term ``spare parts'' is used, but ``parts'' is intended. In 
ECCN 5A002, the term spare parts is used in the ``LVS'' (License 
Exception ``shipments of limited value'') paragraph, but the intent is 
``parts.'' The inclusion of the non-standard, undefined term ``spare 
parts'' could cause confusion about the scope of the LVS authorization. 
This rule removes the word ``spare'' to clarify the applicability of 
this license exception to this ECCN.
    ``Parts'' or ``accessories'' is included, but is not within scope 
of the ECCN. In ECCNs 2B201, 2B206, 2B209, 2B290, 6A225, 6A226, 6A992, 
6A994, 6A995, 6C992, 6C994, and 9A120, the terms ``parts'' and 
``accessories'' are used in the ``unit'' paragraph in the List of Items 
Controlled section, but the ECCN does not include ``parts'' or 
``accessories'' in the list of what that ECCN controls. The inclusion 
of references to ``parts'' or ``accessories'' in these ``unit'' 
paragraphs may cause confusion regarding the scope of those ECCNs. This 
rule would remove such references to ``parts'' and ``accessories'' in 
these ECCNs.
    ``Accessories'' is included, but is not within scope of the ECCN. 
In ECCNs 2A292, 6A203, 6A992 and 9A106, the terms ``parts'' and 
``accessories'' are used in the ``unit'' paragraph in the List of Items 
Controlled section, but the ECCN does not include ``accessories'' in 
the list of items that the ECCN controls. The inclusion of a reference 
to accessories in these ``unit'' paragraphs may cause confusion 
regarding the scope of those ECCNs. In these same ECCNs, the term 
``components'' is included in the ``unit'' paragraph, but with a 
different unit of measurement than ``parts.'' The references to 
``parts'' and ``components'' with different units of measurement is 
inconsistent with the interchangeable use of these terms. This rule 
would remove such ``parts'' and ``accessories'' references and insert 
``parts'' before the ``components'' reference in these ECCNs.
    ``Parts'' or ``components'' is used, and BIS intends the ECCN to 
mean ``parts'' and ``components.'' As the terms ``parts'' and 
``components'' are currently used interchangeably in many entries, 
maintaining current controls while adopting definitions for these words 
requires the use of both words in each of the one hundred forty-eight 
(148) ECCNs where one of those terms is currently used and intended. 
This will ensure that existing ECCNs maintain the same controls as 
exist under the prior undefined interchangeable use of the terms parts 
and components that encompass all subsidiary elements of a complete 
system. BIS, in consultation with the other agencies and multilateral 
export control regimes, intends to revise these entries in the future 
to further refine the CCL controls.
    This rule would insert ``parts'' and add quotation marks in the 
following 127 ECCNs and Notes:
    1A001, 1A002, 1A004, 1A005, 1A006, 1A008, 1A102, 1A995, 1B001, 
1B003, 1B101, 1B102, 1B115, 1B117, 1B118, 1B119, 1C007, 1C117, 1C230, 
1C350, 1C355, 2A001, 2A991, 2B001, 2B003, 2B004, 2B005, 2B109, 2B116, 
2B229, 2B351, 2B352, 2B992, 2B998, 2D351, 3A001, 3A003, 3A101, 3A201, 
3A233, 3A292, 3A982, 3A991, 3A999, 3B001, 3B002, 3B991, 3B992, 3D982, 
3D991, 3E001, 3E003, 3E982, 3E991, 4A001, 4A003, 4A004, 4A101, 4A994, 
5A001, 5A991, 5B001, 5E001, 5A002, 5A992, 6A001, 6A002, 6A003, 6A004, 
6A005, 6A006, 6A008, 6A102, 6A107, 6A205, 6A991, 6A992, 6A995, 6A996, 
6A998, 6B008, 6B995, 6D001, 6E001, 6E002, 6E993, 7A001, 7A002, 7A003, 
7A005, 7A008, 7A101, 7A102, 7A103, 7A104, 7A105, 7A107, 7D001, 7D101, 
7E001, 7E002, 7E101, 8A002, 8A992, 9A002, 9A003, 9A004, 9A005, 9A006, 
9A008, 9A010, 9A011, 9A012, 9A106, 9A108, 9A109, 9A111, 9A120, 9B001, 
9B002, 9B003, 9B009, 9B010, 9B115, 9B116, 9D004 and 9E003.
    In addition to the 127 ECCNs identified in the previous paragraph, 
this rule would also insert ``parts'' and add quotation marks in the 
Note to the Table on Deposition Techniques in the introductory portion 
of Category 2, Product Group E, and the introductory Notes to Category 
5, Parts I and II.
    This rule would insert ``components'' and add quotation marks in 
the following 12 ECCNs:
    2A292, 2A994, 2B001, 2B201, 5A980, 6A203, 6B995, 8A992, 9A012, 
9A106, 9A991 and 9B010.
    This rule would reposition the term ``parts'' before ``components'' 
and add quotation marks to the existing terms ``parts'' and 
``components'' in the following 12 ECCNs:
    1A004, 1C002, 2A983, 2A984, 3A001, 4A994, 6A992, 7A994, 9A106, 
9A991, 9B990 and 9E003.
    (C) Clarifying the use of the term ``assemblies'' on the CCL as 
components.
    In the July 15, 2011 rule, BIS proposed to define the term 
``components'' to mean ``components are also commonly referred to as 
assemblies. For purposes of this definition, an assembly and a 
component are the same.'' BIS has reviewed the CCL to ensure the term 
``assemblies'' is not being used redundantly on the CCL. This review 
has identified five ECCNs (5A991, 9A002, 9A003, 9B002 and 9D004) where 
the terms ``assemblies'' and ``components'' are being used in the same 
ECCN, but the term ``assemblies'' should be removed to avoid the 
incorrect interpretation that assemblies are different from components. 
This rule would add the term ``electronic'' before the term 
``assemblies'' in 5A991 under ``items'' paragraphs (c.1) and (g) to 
distinguish the particular type of assembly that is intended to be 
controlled under this entry. With regard to ECCNs 9A002, 9A003, 9B002 
and 9D004, the U.S. Government intends to develop a proposal to submit 
to the Wassenaar Arrangement that would propose the removal of the term 
``assemblies'' from these ECCNs or propose adding more descriptive 
terms, such as ``electronic'' to clarify the scope of those other 
multilateral-based ECCNs.
    This rule would remove reference to the term ``assemblies'' in ECCN 
6A998, and add the term ``components'' in its place. As described 
above, this rule also proposes adding the term ``parts'' to 6A998.
    (D) This rule would also revise the following ECCNs:
    ECCN 1C996. This rule would amend 1C996 by revising the heading to 
add the phrase ``not controlled by 1C006,'' to clarify the scope of 
1C996 as it relates to 1C006.
    ECCN 2B350. This rule would amend 2B350 by revising the ``Related 
Definitions'' paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section to 
indicate for purposes of this entry that the term `chemical warfare 
agents' includes those agents ``subject to the ITAR'' (see 22 CFR parts 
120 through 130). In addition, this rule would add a note at the end of 
the ``items'' paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section to 
provide a reminder and cross reference to the Note for exporters, 
reexporters and transferors, stating the following: ``See Categories V 
and XIV of the United States Munitions List for all chemicals that are 
```subject to the ITAR' (see 22 CFR parts 120 through 130).''
    ECCN 2B996. This rule would amend 2B996 by revising the heading to 
clarify that dimensional inspection or measuring systems or equipment 
not controlled by 2B006 or 2B206 are controlled under this ECCN. 
Certain dimensional inspection or measuring systems or equipment 
controlled under 2B206 would also be controlled under 2B996. To clarify 
the relationship between 2B996 and 2B206, this rule would add 2B206 to 
the exclusion from 2B996.
    ECCN 6A002. This rule would revise the STA (License Exception 
``Strategic Trade Authorization'') paragraph in the

[[Page 71218]]

License Exceptions section, which as proposed in this rule would now be 
in its own section called Special Conditions for License Exception STA. 
This rule would remove the phrase, ``to any of the eight destinations 
listed in Sec.  740.20(c)(2) of the EAR'' from the end of the current 
STA paragraph and would add it to the introductory text of the STA 
paragraph. BIS makes this change to clarify the 6A002 ``items'' 
paragraphs that are not eligible for License Exception STA to any of 
the eight destinations listed in Sec.  740.20(c)(2).
    ECCN 8A918. This rule would remove the marine boilers from 8A918 
and would move these items to two new ``items'' paragraphs that would 
be added in the List of Items Controlled section of 8A992. This rule 
would add a new ``items'' paragraph (l) to 8A992 for marine boilers 
designed to have any of the characteristics in the new 8A992.l.1 or 
.l.2. This rule would add ``items'' paragraph (m) to 8A992 for 
components, parts, accessories, and attachments for marine boilers that 
would be described in 8A992.l. This rule's proposed movement of these 
commodities from 8A918 to 8A992.l and .m would remove the Regional 
Stability (RS) Column 2 control on these commodities. The Anti-
Terrorism (AT) and United Nations (UN) controls would be retained for 
the commodities moved to 8A992.l and .m. BIS proposes this change 
because these marine boilers do not warrant an RS control or a separate 
ECCN entry and can therefore be added under ECCN 8A992 to be controlled 
with other types of marine commodities warranting an AT control.
    ECCN 9A980. This rule would revise 9A980 by removing the term 
``parts'' from the heading of the ECCN and adding a new heading note to 
clarify the scope of the ECCN. The Crime Control (CC) parts that would 
have been classified under this entry if exported alone are already 
accounted for on the CCL and controlled for CC reasons. The new heading 
note that this rule would add clarifies that in order for a vehicle to 
be classified as a nonmilitary mobile crime scene laboratory under ECCN 
9A980, the vehicle must contain one or more analytical or laboratory 
items controlled for Crime Control (CC) reasons on the CCL, such as 
items controlled under ECCNs 3A980 and 3A981. This new heading note 
does not change the scope of the ECCN, but would make the scope of this 
ECCN and the relationship to other CC ECCNs on the CCL clearer.
    (E) Addition of ``Related Controls'' to aid in classification.
    Most ECCNs on the CCL contain a ``related controls'' paragraph in 
the List of Items Controlled section. The ``related controls'' 
paragraph provides cross references to related ECCNs to assist the 
public in classifying items that are subject to the EAR. In some ECCNs, 
the ``related controls'' paragraph also includes cross-references to 
the export controls other U.S. Government agencies administer.
    This rule proposes adding a number of additional ``related 
controls'' paragraphs or revising existing ``related controls'' 
paragraph to assist the public in classifying items. In responding to 
this proposed rule, the public may also provide suggestions for 
additional ``related controls'' that would assist the public in 
classifying items. This rule proposes revising the ``related controls'' 
paragraphs in the following twelve ECCNs: 1A985, 1B117, 1B118, 1B119, 
1B225, 1C117, 1C233, 2B105, 2B116, 3A230, 7A103 and 9B009.
    Lastly, this rule would revise the ``related controls'' paragraphs 
in ECCN 7A005 and 7A994 and include the substance of the amended 
related control paragraph as a new ``license requirement note'' in 
7A994. This rule change would clarify the relationship between 7A005 
and 7A994 and provide guidance on the appropriate classification for 
GPS equipment. The added text in 7A005 and 7A994 would alert persons 
classifying GPS items that ``typically commercially available GPS do 
not employ encryption or adaptive antenna and are classified as 
7A994.''
    (F) Addition of the term ``subject to the ITAR'' to the EAR.
    This rule would add the term ``subject to the ITAR'' to Sec.  772.1 
(Definitions of terms as used in the Export Administration Regulations 
(EAR)). This defined term would be added to parallel the use of the 
term ``subject to the EAR'' that is commonly used in the EAR, along 
with simplifying many of the references to the export jurisdiction of 
the Department of State that are included in the EAR. The vast majority 
of these references to the export control jurisdiction of the 
Department of State are on the CCL. This rule would also add the 
following definition of ``subject to the ITAR'' in Sec.  772.1:

A term used in the EAR to describe those commodities, software, 
technology (e.g., technical data) and defense services over which 
the U.S. Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls 
(DDTC) exercises regulatory jurisdiction under the International 
Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) (see 22 CFR 120-130).

    This rule would make conforming changes to the rest of the EAR, 
including several ECCNs and Sec. Sec.  734.4 (De minimis U.S. content), 
734.6 (Assistance available from BIS for determining licensing and 
other requirements), and 740.6 (Technology and software under 
restriction (TSR)), by adding ``subject to the ITAR'' where the export 
control jurisdiction of the Department of State is referenced. In 
addition to making the conforming change in Sec.  734.6, this rule 
would revise the language that refers to the ITAR to clarify that in 
order to determine whether an item is ``subject to the ITAR,'' you 
should review the ITAR's United States Munitions List (see 22 CFR 
Sec. Sec.  120.6 and 121.1). The revised text would also clarify you 
may also submit a request to the Department of State, Directorate of 
Defense Trade Controls, for a formal jurisdictional determination 
regarding the commodity, software, technology, or activity at issue 
(see 22 CFR Sec.  120.4).

(2) Changes to Conform the CCL to the Multilateral Export Control 
Regime Control Lists and Previous Amendments to the EAR

    This rule also proposes making the following changes to conform the 
CCL to the multilateral export control regime control lists and to 
conform the CCL to the intent of past amendments to the EAR. These are 
cases where a previous amendment to the EAR was intended to effect a 
change, but the change was not implemented as intended or where a 
conforming change should have been made to the CCL, but was 
inadvertently not made in a past rulemaking. This rule proposes to make 
the following conforming changes:
    (A) Conforming changes for TSR limitations of Wassenaar Very 
Sensitive List Items.
    In implementing its commitment to exercise vigilance for the 
licensing of items listed on the Wassenaar Very Sensitive List, the 
United States has limited the use of License Exception TSR to a list of 
specifically identified countries for certain ECCNs. These limitations 
are contained in the TSR paragraph in the License Exception section of 
nine ECCNs (i.e., ECCNs 1E001, 5D001, 5E001, 6D001, 6D003, 6E001, 
6E002, 8D001 and 8E001) that contain items on the Wassenaar Very 
Sensitive List and for which TSR has been authorized for some, or all 
of the ECCN.
    The TSR paragraph limitation was introduced in 1998, upon 
implementation of the Wassenaar Arrangement (63 FR 2452), with a list 
of sixteen destinations eligible for TSR for Wassenaar Very Sensitive 
List items. Approximately one-year later Japan was added to the TSR 
paragraph limitation (64 FR 10852). In 2008, Australia and Norway were 
added to the TSR

[[Page 71219]]

paragraph in ECCN 1E001, with the explanation that their original 
exclusion had been an oversight. Australia and Norway were not added to 
the other TSR paragraphs with Wassenaar Very Sensitive List 
limitations, creating an inconsistency.
    This rule proposes to adopt a standardized list of countries under 
the EAR for the nine ECCNs. The use of this standardized list of 
countries would simplify the use of the TSR License Exception for these 
nine ECCNs and aid the public's understanding regarding what countries 
are eligible and not eligible to receive National Security (NS) 
controlled technology under these nine ECCNs. BIS has recently 
determined that the thirty six (36) countries listed in License 
Exception Strategic Trade Authorization, Section 740.20(c)(2) of the 
EAR, are eligible for License Exception authorization for Wassenaar 
Very Sensitive List items. These 36 countries are: Argentina, 
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Czech Republic, 
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, 
Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New 
Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, South 
Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, or the United Kingdom. This 
rule proposes to revise the list of countries in the TSR paragraph for 
these nine ECCNs to state ``those 36 countries listed in Sec.  
740.20(c)(1) (License Exception STA).'' The 17 countries (19 countries 
in 1E001) that were previously identified as being eligible for License 
Exception TSR under these ECCNs were a subset of the 36 STA-eligible 
countries. Therefore, this proposed rule would add the remaining 19 
countries, except for 1E001 where this proposed rule would add the 
remaining 17 countries, as eligible countries to receive this type of 
technology through application of License Exception TSR under these 
ECCNs.
    (B) ECCN changes to conform to the multilateral export control 
regimes.
    ECCNs 1A101. This rule would amend 1A101 by replacing the defined 
term ``missiles'' with the phrase ``rockets, missiles, or unmanned 
aerial vehicles capable of achieving a ``range'' equal to or greater 
than 300 km'' to conform to the Missile Technology Control Regime 
(MTCR) Annex.
    ECCNs 1D103. This rule would amend 1D103 by replacing the defined 
term ``missiles'' with the phrase ``rockets, missiles, or unmanned 
aerial vehicles capable of delivering at least a 500 kg payload to a 
``range'' equal to or greater than 300 km'' to conform to the MTCR 
Annex.
    ECCN 5D101. This rule would amend 5D101 by removing the term 
``items'' and adding the term ``equipment'' in its place. This rule 
would make this change to be consistent with the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 6A203. This rule would amend 6A203 by removing ``accessories 
in $ value'' from the ``unit'' paragraph in the List of Items 
Controlled section. This change would be made to conform to the Nuclear 
Suppliers Group (NSG) control list, which does not include controls on 
``accessories'' under NSG 1.A.2, 5.B.3, and 5.B.4.
    ECCN 6D102. This rule would amend 6D102 by removing the term 
``goods'' from the heading and adding the term ``equipment'' in its 
place. This rule would make this change to be consistent with the MTCR 
Annex.
    ECCN 6D994. This rule would remove 6D994 to conform to a previous 
amendment to the EAR that imposed a control for these same items under 
6D003.c. BIS's intention when 6D994 was added to the CCL was to impose 
a control on this software until such time as a control could be 
approved at the Wassenaar Arrangement and implemented in the EAR. At 
the time when the final rule to add this software to 6D003.c was 
published, the intention was to remove 6D994. However, this entry was 
inadvertently retained at the time 6D003.c was added to the CCL, which 
may have caused confusion for exporters trying to classify this type of 
software because the software meets the description of two software 
ECCNs. To address this scenario, this rule would remove 6D994 from the 
CCL, leaving 6D003.c as the control ECCN.
    ECCN 7D101. This rule would amend 7D101 by revising the heading to 
include 7A117 in the list of ECCNs for which 7D101 controls the 
software. 7A117 is a reference to a USML control based on the MTCR 
Annex. 7D101 controls the software of certain commodities controlled 
for MT reasons. This change is made to conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 7E104. This rule would amend 7E104 by replacing the defined 
term ``missiles'' with the phrase ``rockets or missiles capable of 
achieving a ``range'' equal to or greater than 300km'' to conform to 
the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9A107. This rule would amend 9A107 by revising the heading to 
replace the word ``engines'' with the word ``motors.'' This change is 
made to conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9A110. This rule would amend 9A110 by revising the heading to 
include 9A109 in the list of ECCNs for which 9A110 controls the 
composite structures, laminates and manufactures thereof. 9A109 is a 
reference to a USML control based on the MTCR Annex. 9A110 controls the 
software of certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This rule 
would further amend 9A110 by replacing the defined term ``missiles'' 
with the phrase ``rockets, missiles, or unmanned aerial vehicles 
capable of achieving a ``range'' equal to or greater than 300 km.'' 
These changes are made to conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9A118. This rule would amend 9A118 by inserting the phrase 
``missiles, and unmanned aerial vehicles capable of achieving a 
``range'' equal with a range capability of 300 Km or greater'' into the 
heading to conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9B115. This rule would amend 9B115 by revising the heading to 
include 9A103 in the list of ECCNs for which 9B115 controls the 
``production equipment.'' 9A103 is a reference to a USML control based 
on the MTCR Annex. 9B115 controls the ``production equipment'' of 
certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This change is made to 
conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9B116. This rule would amend 9B116 by revising the heading to 
include 9A103 in the list of ECCNs for which 9B116 controls the 
``production equipment.'' 9A103 is a reference to a USML control based 
on the MTCR Annex. 9B116 controls the ``production equipment'' of 
certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This change is made to 
conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9D103. This rule would amend 9D103 by revising the heading to 
include ECCNs 9A009, 9A107 and 9A109, and to expand the reference to 
9A105 from 9A105.a to the entire ECCN in the list of ECCNs for which 
9D103 controls certain ``software.'' ECCNs 9A009, 9A105, 9A107 and 
9A109 are references to USML controls based on the MTCR Annex. 9D103 is 
a reference to USML control based on the MTCR Annex. This change is 
made to conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9D104. This rule would amend 9D104 by revising the heading to 
include all of ECCNs 9A006, 9A007, 9A008, 9A009, 9A010, 9A115 and 9A116 
and 9A106.e in the list of ECCNs for which 9D104 controls the 
``software.'' 9A006, 9A007, 9A008, 9A009, 9A010, 9A115 and 9A116 are 
references to USML controls based on the MTCR Annex. 9A106.e is 
controlled on the CCL for MT reasons. 9D104 controls the ``software'' 
of certain commodities controlled for MT reasons. This change is made 
to conform to the MTCR Annex.
    ECCN 9D105. This rule would amend 9D105 by replacing the defined 
term

[[Page 71220]]

``missiles'' with the phrase ``rockets, missiles, or unmanned aerial 
vehicles capable of achieving a ``range'' equal to or greater than 300 
km'' to conform to the MTCR Annex.

(3) Structural Changes To Improve the Clarity of the CCL

    ECCNs on the CCL follow the same basic paragraph structure, 
although not all ECCNs contain the same paragraphs. The common 
paragraph structure is intended to allow the public to quickly review 
ECCNs and to identify relevant paragraphs in each ECCN. This rule 
proposes changes to the standard section headings that are used in most 
ECCNs on the CCL. These proposed changes would affect most of the ECCNs 
on the CCL, but would be implemented through instructions instead of 
setting out each proposed revision in the regulatory text. BIS is 
proposing the changes in the format to save on the cost of implementing 
these structural changes. BIS's decision also took into account that 
the proposed changes are not ECCN specific and are more focused on how 
the ECCN information is being communicated to the public. Each of the 
proposed structural changes this rule would implement improves the 
clarity of the CCL and is further described below.
    (A) Revision of License Exceptions section heading.
    This rule would revise the License Exceptions section heading to 
add greater specificity. This rule would revise the section heading by 
changing it from ``License Exceptions'' to the more specific section 
heading of ``List-Based License Exceptions (See Part 740 for a complete 
listing of license exceptions and requirements).'' This rule would also 
add a parenthetical after the revised section heading to provide a 
cross reference to the license exceptions part of the EAR. This rule 
would add this cross reference because a definitive determination 
regarding whether a license exception may be used for a specific ECCN 
can only be made after also reviewing the applicable license exceptions 
provisions in part 740 of the EAR.
    (B) Removal of the License Exception STA paragraphs.
    In order to implement the changes described above under (A) 
Revision of License Exceptions section heading, this rule also proposes 
removing the License Exception STA paragraph in the License Exceptions 
section of the following forty-nine ECCNs: 1A002, 1C001, 1C007, 1C010, 
1C012, 1D002, 1E001, 1E002, 2D001, 2E001, 2E002, 3A002, 3B001, 3D001, 
3E001, 4A001, 4D001, 4E001, 5A001, 5B001, 5D001, 5E001, 6A001, 6A002, 
6A003, 6A004, 6A006, 6A008, 6B008, 6D001, 6D003, 6E001, 6E002, 7D003, 
7E001, 7E002, 8A001, 8A002, 8D001, 8D002, 8E001, 8E002, 9B001, 9D001, 
9D002, 9D004, 9E001, 9E002 and 9E003. This rule would move the text of 
those License Exception STA paragraphs to a new section titled 
``Special Conditions for STA.'' This rule proposes creating this new 
section immediately following the proposed ``List-Based License 
Exceptions (See Part 740 for a complete listing of license exceptions 
and requirements)'' instruction, because the License Exception STA 
paragraphs do not perform the same function as the other list-based 
license exception paragraphs. This rule does not propose any changes to 
the regulatory text included in the current License Exception STA 
paragraphs of these ECCNs. The changes proposed in this rule are 
limited to proposing a new section heading and then moving the existing 
License Exception STA paragraphs in these forty-nine ECCNs to the new 
STA section heading.
    (C) Adding a cross-reference after Country Chart.
    This rule proposes revising the ``Country Chart'' paragraph heading 
in the License Requirements section to add a parenthetical to indicate 
where the public can find the Country Chart. The revised Country Chart 
paragraph heading would now read ``Country Chart (See Supp. No. 1 to 
part 738).'' Not all ECCNs include a Country Chart paragraph and a 
small number of ECCNs do not rely on the Commerce Country Chart for 
determining destination-based license requirements. Most ECCNs, 
however, are structured to refer to the information contained in the 
Country Chart paragraph in Supplement No. 1 to part 738 to identify 
destination-based license requirements. The changes in this rule would 
clarify that for the ECCNs that use this structure, exporters, 
reexporters and transferors need to refer to the Country Chart in 
Supplement No. 1 to part 738 to determine destination-based license 
requirements. For experienced exporters, reexporters, and transferors, 
this structure is well understood. The new cross references would be 
primarily intended for those exporters, reexporters, and transferors 
who are new to the EAR and who may not as readily understand the 
relationship between this standard ECCN paragraph and Supplement No. 1 
to part 738. The new parenthetical phrase at the end of the Country 
Chart paragraph would make the relationship explicit.
    (D) Adding a new ``Reporting Requirements'' section to certain 
ECCNs.
    Some ECCNs include references to reporting requirements. They are 
typically found either in License Requirement notes or in notes to the 
``items'' paragraphs in the List of Items Controlled section. BIS has 
adopted a standardized paragraph structure for ECCNs, as much as 
possible, to assist the public in classifying items. A standardized 
paragraph structure helps the public classify items by putting the 
information contained in an ECCN into a useable and easily recognizable 
format. The current reporting requirements, which are found in various 
sections and paragraphs of the ECCN, deviate from this type of 
standardized structure. This rule proposes to add a new section heading 
called Reporting Requirements where the existing reporting requirements 
found in ECCNs would be consolidated to address this issue. This rule 
does not propose any changes to the scope of current reporting 
requirements. This proposed standardized structure would aid in 
compliance with the reporting requirements and assist exporters in more 
quickly and easily identifying ECCNs subject to reporting requirements. 
The rule proposes adding the new Reporting Requirements section heading 
immediately before the License Exceptions section, which, as proposed 
above, would now be revised to read ``List-Based License Exceptions 
(See Part 740 for a complete listing of license exceptions and 
requirements).''
    To implement this change in Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the 
Commerce Control List), this rule would remove the ``License 
Requirements Notes'' paragraphs in the License Requirements section in 
the following thirty-nine Export Control Classification Numbers 
(ECCNs): 1A002, 1C007, 1C010, 1D002, 1E001, 1E002, 2D001, 2E001, 2E002, 
3A002, 3D001, 3E001, 4A001, 4E001, 5A001, 5B001, 5D001, 5E001, 6A001, 
6A002, 6A004, 6A006, 6A008, 6D001, 6D003, 6E001, 6E002, 8A001, 8A002, 
8D001, 8D002, 8E001, 8E002, 9B001, 9D001, 9D002, 9E001, 9E002 and 
9E003. In these thirty-nine ECCNs, this rule would add the new section 
entitled ``REPORTING REQUIREMENTS See Sec.  743.1 of the EAR for 
reporting requirements for exports under License Exceptions, Special 
Comprehensive Licenses, and Validated End-User authorizations'' after 
the License Requirements section in each of these respective ECCNs. 
This proposed rule would also make changes to the new Reporting 
Requirements section to ensure the text conforms to the listing

[[Page 71221]]

of authorizations in Sec.  743.1 that require reporting to BIS.

(4) Removal of Fourteen ECCNs Subject to the Exclusive Jurisdiction of 
the Nuclear Regulatory Commission

    (A) Removal of fourteen ECCNs.
    The CCL includes forty-nine ECCNs that refer to items that are 
subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Department of Energy, the 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission, or the Department of State. They 
constitute approximately 10% of the total number of ECCNs on the CCL. 
Of the forty-nine ECCNs, fourteen ECCNs are subject to the export 
licensing authority of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission at 10 CFR part 
110. This rule proposes removing these fourteen ECCNs from the CCL. The 
fourteen ECCNs are 0A001, 0B001, 0B002, 0B003, 0B004, 0B005, 0B006, 
0C001, 0C002, 0C004, 0C005, 0C006, 0C201 and 1C012. The ECCNs that BIS 
proposes to remove are Nuclear Trigger List items, so the jurisdiction 
of these items is already established under U.S. export controls and, 
as explained below, there is no need to include this additional cross 
reference from the CCL to the controls maintained by the Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission.
    BIS's original purpose for including these ECCNs on the CCL was to 
supplement Sec.  734.3 (Items subject to the EAR) under paragraph 
(b)(1), which describes items that are not subject to the EAR because 
they are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of another agency of the 
U.S. Government, and to supplement the jurisdiction information for the 
other U.S. Government agencies found in Supplement No. 3 to part 730 
(Other U.S. Government Departments and Agencies with Export Control 
Responsibilities). BIS also included these ECCNs to better align the 
CCL with the European Union's control lists that are primarily based on 
the multilateral export control regimes. However, by including 
references to other agencies' controls in specific ECCNs there is the 
potential that such ECCN references will become out of date if the 
other agencies update their respective regulations and the 
corresponding changes are not made in the EAR cross reference in a 
timely manner.
    For example, on September 7, 2011 (76 FR 55278), the National 
Nuclear Security Administration, Department of Energy (DOE) published a 
notice of proposed rulemaking that proposed various amendments to 
regulations concerning unclassified assistance to foreign atomic energy 
activities. These proposed revisions were intended to reduce 
uncertainties for industry users concerning which foreign nuclear 
related activities by U.S. persons are ``generally authorized'' under 
the regulation and which activities require a ``specific 
authorization'' from the Secretary of Energy. However, if the ECCNs on 
the CCL that currently refer to DOE and NRC controls are not updated, 
the uncertainties for exporters, reexporters and transferors would 
increase because of inconsistencies in the different regulations. Given 
that the DOE and NRC respective regulations are controlling in this 
area and these ECCNs are only acting as a cross reference, BIS is 
proposing the removal of these ECCNs.
    BIS has determined there still is utility in including general 
cross references to other agencies' controls. Thus, this rule proposes 
to include a general cross reference at the beginning of the CCL in a 
revised Sec.  774.1 (Introduction) that would contain those ECCNs that 
have been reserved and are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of 
another agency of the U.S. Government. In addition, the related control 
paragraphs of ECCNs would contain cross references to controls of other 
agencies to the extent that such controls are similar to or related to 
the controls of certain ECCNs.
    The remaining thirty-five of the forty-nine ECCNs refer to items 
that are ``subject to the ITAR,'' which is maintained by the Department 
of State. Given the ongoing review of the United States Munitions List 
(USML) that is being conducted under the ECR Initiative, it is 
premature to propose removing or revising these thirty-five ECCNs. In 
addition, given the number of cross references, in particular in 
Categories 7 and 9 of the CCL, to these thirty-five ECCNs, BIS 
determined that removing the ECCNs that are ``subject to the ITAR'' 
should be addressed at a later time once the review of the USML is 
completed.
    (B) Changes to the CCL to conform to the removal of these fourteen 
ECCNs. In addition to removing the fourteen ECCNs, this rule would also 
make conforming changes to eleven ECCNs that would be retained on the 
CCL. The ECCNs that would be revised by this rule contain references to 
one or more of the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed.
    The removal of the fourteen ECCNs should not impact the existing 
controls for items subject to the EAR. However, given the 
interrelationship between the fourteen ECCNs removed and the eleven 
ECCNs where conforming changes would be required, BIS is particularly 
interested in any comments regarding whether the proposed changes 
accurately capture the intent of the previous references (i.e., the 
references to the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed in the eleven 
ECCNs that are retained on the CCL).
    The rule would make conforming changes to the following eleven 
ECCNs: 1A290, 1C107, 1C240, 1C298, 3A225, 3A226, 3A227, 3A233, 3A999, 
6A005 and 6A205. This rule's proposed revisions consist of the 
following:
    ECCNs 3A225, 3A226, 3A227, 3A233, 6A005 and 6A205. This rule would 
revise six ECCN headings (3A225, 3A226, 3A227, 3A233, 6A005 and 6A205). 
This rule would take this approach to minimize the number of changes 
that would need to be made, while still ensuring the headings would 
reflect the intended scope of these six ECCNs.
    On the CCL, these six ECCN headings include references to some of 
the fourteen ECCNs that would be removed as a shorthand way of 
communicating the scope of items controlled. Therefore, the removal of 
these fourteen ECCNs would require that a broader description be added 
to the headings of the ECCNs that would be retained. If only one of the 
fourteen ECCNs that would be removed is referenced, then BIS believes 
that in most cases it is easy to incorporate the text of the removed 
ECCN into the heading of the ECCN that would be retained. However, 
there are certain ECCNs that contain multiple references to the ECCNs 
that would be removed. In the cases where multiple ECCNs are 
referenced, an effort to insert all the text into the headings as a 
conforming change would not be feasible. To address this issue, this 
rule would add heading notes, which would provide more space to 
describe the substance of the ECCNs that would be removed from the 
respective headings. The end of the revised headings would include a 
reference to the heading notes to alert persons classifying their items 
to review the heading notes as they determine whether their item in 
question was classified under the removed ECCN.
    ECCNs 1A290, 1C107 and 1E001. This rule would revise three 
``related controls'' paragraphs in ECCNs 1A290, 1C107 and 1E001. These 
changes would revise references to one or more of the fourteen removed 
ECCNs in each of the three remaining ECCNs and replace them with more 
descriptive explanations in the related controls. These changes would 
reduce the need for cross-referencing in the CCL to the fourteen 
removed ECCNs. Another alternative would be to take the opposite 
approach and instead simply use very broad descriptors for the types

[[Page 71222]]

of items that are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of another 
export control agency of the U.S. Government. BIS would welcome 
comments from the public regarding whether this alternative approach of 
simply using broad descriptors or some other approach not yet 
considered by BIS would be better than what is proposed.
    ECCN 1E001. This rule would also revise 1E001 by removing the 
reference to 1C012 in the License Exception STA paragraph in the 
License Exceptions section. This ECCN is subject to the exclusive 
jurisdiction of another agency. Thus, License Exception STA could never 
be used as the authority to export an item described in 1C012.
    ECCN 1C298. This rule would revise one CCL note in ECCN 1C298 to 
remove references to one or more of the fourteen ECCNs that would be 
removed by this rule.
    (C) Adding a general cross reference to the fourteen ECCNs that 
would be removed.
    In Sec.  774.1 (Introduction), this rule would redesignate the 
introductory text of the section as paragraph (a) with the heading 
``Scope of the control list,'' and would add a paragraph (b) with the 
heading ``ECCN cross-references for items subject to the exclusive 
jurisdiction of another agency.'' The introductory text of paragraph 
(b) would indicate that prior to the date of publication in the Federal 
Register of the final rule that would remove these fourteen ECCNs, the 
CCL contained fourteen ECCNs that were included as cross references on 
the CCL to the export control regulations administered by the Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission. Paragraph (b) would identify ECCNs formerly 
listed on the CCL that were subject to the jurisdiction of the Nuclear 
Regulatory Commission at 10 CFR part 110. This rule would add a note to 
paragraph (b) to indicate that ECCNs 0D001 and 0E001 (ECCNs that are 
proposed to be retained on the CCL) were subject to the jurisdiction of 
the Nuclear Regulatory Commission at 10 CFR part 110 or jurisdiction of 
the Department of the Energy at 10 CFR part 810, but also have certain 
portions that, as of the date of publication of this rule, were 
``subject to the ITAR.'' These ECCNs would be retained on the CCL as a 
cross reference.
    Although the Export Administration Act expired on August 20, 2001, 
the President, through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 
2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002), as extended by the Notice of August 15, 
2012, 77 FR 49699 (August 16, 2012), has continued the Export 
Administration Regulations in effect under the International Emergency 
Economic Powers Act. BIS continues to carry out the provisions of the 
Export Administration Act, as appropriate and to the extent permitted 
by law, pursuant to Executive Order 13222.

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all 
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if 
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize 
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public 
health and safety effects, distribute impacts, and equity). Executive 
Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and 
benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting 
flexibility. This rule has been designated a ``significant regulatory 
action,'' although not economically significant, under section 3(f) of 
Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the rule has been reviewed by the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
    2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is 
required to respond to nor 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 regulation involves 
collections previously approved by OMB under control numbers 0694-0088, 
``Multi-Purpose Application,'' which carries a burden hour estimate of 
43.8 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. Total burden hours 
associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694-0088 are expected 
to decrease slightly as a result of this rule because of the proposed 
removal of ECCN 8A918. You may send comments regarding the collection 
of information associated with this rule, including suggestions for 
reducing the burden, to Jasmeet K. Seehra, Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB), by email to Jasmeet_K._Seehra@omb.eop.gov, or by fax to 
(202) 395-7285.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications 
as that term is defined under E.O. 13132.
    4. The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), as amended by the Small 
Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (SBREFA), 5 U.S.C. 
601 et seq., generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory 
flexibility analysis for any rule subject to the notice and comment 
rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 
U.S.C. 553) or any other statute, unless the agency certifies that the 
rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities. Under section 605(b) of the RFA, however, if 
the head of an agency certifies that a rule will not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, the statute 
does not require the agency to prepare a regulatory flexibility 
analysis. Pursuant to section 605(b), the Chief Counsel for Regulation, 
Department of Commerce, submitted a memorandum to the Chief Counsel for 
Advocacy, Small Business Administration, certifying that this proposed 
rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities.

Number of Small Entities

    The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) does not collect data on 
the size of entities that apply for and are issued export licenses. 
Although BIS is unable to estimate the exact number of small entities 
that would be impacted by this rule, it does acknowledge that this rule 
will impact some unknown number.

Economic Impact

    This proposed rule is part of the Administration's Export Control 
Reform (ECR) Initiative. As part of the ECR Initiative, BIS published 
an advance notice of proposed rulemaking on December 9, 2010 seeking, 
among other things, public comments on how descriptions of items 
controlled on the CCL could be made clearer. The December 9, 2010 
notice solicited public suggestions on ways to improve the descriptions 
of items on the CCL to better reflect internationally accepted 
standards and use industry standard terms and references. Where 
objective criteria are missing from ECCNs, BIS sought specific 
suggestions on what technical parameters, characteristics, thresholds, 
and capabilities should be used to describe the item. BIS requested 
that all suggestions in this area should include proposed revisions to 
the text of ECCNs or proposed Technical Notes to ECCNs that explain 
terms or phrases used in the ECCN.
    Fifty public comments were received totaling over 1400 pages in 
suggestions for how the CCL could be improved. The vast majority of 
suggested changes that can be implemented unilaterally by the U.S. 
Government involve improvements to the clarity of the CCL. These 
changes are included in this proposed rule. BIS also solicited in the 
December 9, 2010 notice comments on how the CCL could be made more

[[Page 71223]]

``positive,'' but given the CCL is already primarily a ``positive'' 
control list, most of the comments in this area focused on ways to 
improve the overall use of the CCL and public understanding of the CCL.
    This rule focuses on implementing a large number of changes that 
would make the CCL clearer. The significance of any particular change, 
when taken by itself, may not appear to make a dramatic improvement to 
the clarity of the CCL, but the cumulative impact of these various 
proposed changes would make a significant improvement to the CCL. BIS 
believes this improved clarity would also make the control list easier 
to use, in particular for those reviewing the CCL for the first time.
    Improving the clarity of the CCL as described in this rule would 
reduce the burden on small entities (and other entities as well) by 
increasing the public's confidence in self-classifying items on the CCL 
thereby reducing the amount of time it takes for the public to classify 
items using the CCL. The CCL, as noted in the December 9, 2010 notice, 
should be written in a clear way that allows someone who knows the 
technical parameters and capabilities of an item to review the CCL, 
even if it is their first time reviewing the CCL, and consistently and 
easily come to the right classification determination.
    Defining and using terms consistently, clarifying control 
parameters to better reflect the intent of the controls, removing 
references on the CCL that do not serve a clear purpose, and ensuring 
that the controls are consistent with U.S. Government commitments to 
the multilateral export control regimes, would make the CCL clearer and 
improve the ease of use of the CCL. This would reduce the burden on 
small entities (and all other entities as well). Ambiguity on the CCL 
creates a burden for small entities (and all other entities as well), 
so changes that make the CCL clearer would result in less burden on 
these entities.
    One of the comments submitted in response to the December 9, 2010 
notice indicated that the overall consistency of how the CCL is 
structured was an area where the CCL could be improved. The current CCL 
does have many common structural elements, such as the ECCNs, Product 
Groups (A-E) and Categories (0-9) following the same basic structure, 
but in reviewing this comment and other public comments, BIS determined 
that additional changes could be made to create greater consistency in 
how the ECCN information was being communicated to the public, such as 
creating a new ``Reporting Requirements'' paragraph to make it easier 
for exporters classifying items to quickly determine whether a 
particular item was subject to reporting requirements. Other structural 
changes, such as the proposed changes to the License Exceptions section 
of the ECCNs would assist the public in more easily understanding the 
relationship between the License Exceptions section in ECCNs and part 
740. These structural changes will reduce the burden for small entities 
(and all other entities as well) by making the CCL easier to use and 
more clearly communicating the relationship between the CCL and other 
key provisions of the EAR, such as parts 738 and 740.
    In practice, the greatest impact of this rule on small entities 
would likely be reduced administrative costs and reduced delay for 
exports of items. Without this rule, a company or person may have 
submitted a classification to BIS because the CCL was not clear from 
their perspective regarding the scope of items controlled. BIS supports 
and encourages the public to submit classification requests when a 
person is unsure of an item's classification, but the CCL should be 
written in a clear fashion whereby a person who understands the 
technical parameters and capabilities of their item does not feel a 
need to submit a classification request in order to classify an item 
subject to the EAR. In addition, for small entities (and all other 
entities), if the CCL is clear and easy to use, a company or person may 
find it easier and less expensive to train others to use the CCL. If 
there is perceived ambiguity on the CCL that requires some degree of 
interpretation to understand what is controlled, such ambiguity makes 
it more difficult to train an entity's personnel to use the CCL. This 
is not the type of control list BIS seeks. Creating control lists that 
clearly communicate the scope of items controlled on the CCL and the 
USML are one of the objectives of the ongoing ECR Initiative, as was 
referenced in the December 9, 2010 notice. This proposed rule is not 
meant to create any substantive changes. Therefore, this proposed rule 
would not cause any economic impact and would result in no additional 
compliance costs.

Conclusion

    BIS is unable to determine the precise number of small entities 
that would be affected by this rule. Based on the facts and conclusions 
set forth above, BIS believes that any burdens imposed by this rule 
would be offset by the improvements made to the clarity of the CCL and 
the reduction in time and cost required for small entities to classify 
their items using the CCL, along with understanding how the CCL relates 
to other provisions of the EAR.
    For these reasons, the Chief Counsel for Regulation of the 
Department of Commerce certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of 
the Small Business Administration that this rule, if adopted in final 
form, would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities.

    9. Revise Sec.  774.1 to read as follows:


Sec.  774.1  Introduction.

    (a) Scope of the control list. In this part, references to the EAR 
are references to 15 CFR chapter VII, subchapter C. The Bureau of 
Industry and Security (BIS) maintains the Commerce Control List (CCL) 
that includes ``items''--i.e., ``commodities,'' ``software,'' and 
``technology''--subject to the authority of BIS. The CCL does not 
include items exclusively controlled for export by another department 
or agency of the U.S. Government. In instances where other agencies 
administer controls over related items, entries in the CCL will often 
contain a reference to these controls. In addition, those items 
``subject to the EAR'' but not identified on the CCL are identified by 
the designator ``EAR99.'' See Sec.  734.2(a) of the EAR for items that 
are ``subject to the EAR.'' EAR Part 738 contains an explanation of the 
organization of the CCL and its relationship to the Country Chart.
    (b) ECCN cross-references for items subject to exclusive 
jurisdiction of another agency. Prior to November 29, 2012, the CCL 
contained certain ECCNs that were only included as cross references to 
items subject to the export control regulations administered by the 
Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
    ECCNs formerly listed on the CCL that, as of November 29, 2012 were 
subject to the export licensing authority of the Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission at 10 CFR part 110 are: 0A001, 0B001, 0B002, 0B003, 0B004, 
0B005, 0B006, 0C001, 0C002, 0C004, 0C005, 0C006, 0C201 and 1C012.
    Note to paragraph (b): As of November 29, 2012 ECCN 0D001 is 
subject to the export licensing authority of the Nuclear Regulatory 
Commission (see 10 CFR part 110), and ECCN 0E001 is subject to the 
export licensing authority of the Department of Energy (see 10 CFR part 
810), but certain portions of these entries are also ``subject to the 
ITAR'' (see 22 CFR parts 120 through 130). These ECCNs are retained on 
the CCL as a cross reference.
    (c) Where to find the CCL? The CCL is contained in Supplement No. 1 
to this part, and Supplement No. 2 to this part contains the General 
Technology and Software Notes relevant to entries contained in the CCL.

Supplement No. 1 to Part 774--[Amended]

    10. Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the Commerce Control List) is 
amended by removing the following Export Control Classification Numbers 
(ECCNs): 0A001, 0B001, 0B002, 0B003, 0B004, 0B005, 0B006, 0C001, 0C002, 
0C004, 0C005, 0C006, 0C201and 1C012.
    11. Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the Commerce Control List) is 
amended:
    a. By removing the License Exception STA paragraph under the 
License Exceptions section of the following Export Control 
Classification Numbers (ECCNs): 1A002, 1C001, 1C007, 1C010, 1C012, 
1D002, 1E001, 1E002, 2D001, 2E001, 2E002, 3A002, 3B001, 3D001, 3E001, 
4A001, 4D001, 4E001, 5A001, 5B001, 5D001, 5E001, 6A001, 6A002, 6A003, 
6A004, 6A006, 6A008, 6B008, 6D001, 6D003, 6E001, 6E002, 7D003, 7E001, 
7E002, 8A001, 8A002, 8D001, 8D002, 8E001, 8E002, 9B001, 9D001, 9D002, 
9D004, 9E001, 9E002, and 9E003;
    b. By adding the new section heading ``Special Conditions for STA'' 
after the License Exceptions sections in the ECCNs identified under 
instruction 18.a; and
    c. By adding the License Exception STA paragraphs removed from 
instruction 18.a to the new section heading ``Special Conditions for 
STA'' added under instruction 18.b.
    12. Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the Commerce Control List) is 
amended by removing the section headings ``License Exceptions'' from 
Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) and replacing those 
headings with ``List

[[Page 71225]]

Based License Exceptions (See Part 740 for a complete listing of 
license exceptions and requirements).''
    13. Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the Commerce Control List) is 
amended by removing the ``Country Chart'' paragraph heading in the 
License Requirements section in Export Control Classification Numbers 
(ECCNs) and adding in its place the heading ``Country Chart (See Supp. 
No. 1 to part 738).''
    14. Supplement No. 1 to part 774 (the Commerce Control List) is 
amended:
    a. By removing the ``License Requirements Notes'' paragraphs in the 
License Requirements section in the following Export Control
