Final rule, correction. AGENCY: ACTION: ■ VerDate Mar<15>2010 equipment or materials, controlled by 8A (except 8A992), 8B or 8C. The Department of State is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register of July 8, 2013 (78 FR 40922). That rule amended the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) to revise four U.S. Munitions List (USML) categories and provide new and revised definitions. DATES: This rule is effective January 6, 2014. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Sarah J. Heidema, Deputy Director, Office of Defense Trade Controls Policy, Department of State, telephone (202) 663–2809; email DDTCResponseTeam@ state.gov. ATTN: Regulatory Change, Corrections to Second ECR Final Rule. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department provides the following corrections to the rule, ‘‘Amendment to SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00026 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 the International Traffic in Arms Regulations: Continued Implementation of Export Control Reform,’’ published on July 8, 2013 and effective on January 6, 2014 (78 FR 40922). As part of the President’s Export Control Reform (ECR) effort, that rule amended the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) to revise four U.S. Munitions List (USML) categories and provide new and revised definitions. The changes in this rule are meant to clarify the regulation by correcting punctuation, providing exact effective dates for the paragraphs regarding developmental articles, and providing a revised Supplement No. 1 to part 126, which takes into account the changes made to the USML categories revised in the rule published on July 8, 2013. Pursuant to ECR, the Department of Commerce has been publishing revisions to the Export Administration Regulations, including various revisions to the Commerce Control List (CCL). Revision of the USML and CCL are coordinated so there is uninterrupted regulatory coverage for items moving from the jurisdiction of the Department of State to that of the Department of Commerce. The Department of Commerce’s companion to the rule corrected in this notice (see ‘‘Revisions to the Export Administration Regulations: Military Vehicles; Vessels of War; Submersible Vessels, Oceanographic Equipment; Related Items; and Auxiliary and Miscellaneous Items That the President Determines No Longer Warrant Control Under the United States Munitions List,’’ 78 FR 40892) is also corrected in this edition of the Federal Register. The following corrections are made to the rule, ‘‘Amendment to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations: Continued Implementation of Export Control Reform,’’ published on July 8, 2013: ■ 1. On page 40924, in the third column, in the second from last paragraph, after ‘‘introduction,’’ add the following: ‘‘The Department also notes that paragraph (d)(1) controls ablative materials, articles the subject of unrevised USML Category IV(f). The Department reiterates the principle provided in the first rule implementing Export Control Reform (see 78 FR 22740): where there is overlap in control regarding a particular article, the control of the revised USML category supersedes that of the unrevised USML category.’’ PART 121—[CORRECTED] § 121.1 [Corrected] 2.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC), U.S. Department of State, administers the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) (22 CFR parts 120–130). The items subject to the jurisdiction of the ITAR, i.e., ‘‘defense articles’’ and ‘‘defense services,’’ are identified on the ITAR’s U.S. Munitions List (USML) (22 CFR 121.1). With few exceptions, items not subject to the export control jurisdiction of the ITAR are subject to the jurisdiction of the Export Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR,’’ 15 CFR parts 730–774, which includes the Commerce Control List (CCL) in Supplement No. 1 to part 774), administered by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), U.S. Department of Commerce. Both the ITAR and the EAR impose license requirements on exports, reexports, and retransfers. Items not subject to the ITAR or to the exclusive licensing jurisdiction of any other set of regulations are subject to the EAR. mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:09 Dec 31, 2013 Jkt 232001 All references to the USML in this rule are to the list of defense articles controlled for the purpose of export or temporary import pursuant to the ITAR, and not to the defense articles on the USML that are controlled by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) for the purpose of permanent import under its regulations. See 27 CFR part 447. Pursuant to section 38(a)(1) of the Arms Export Control Act (AECA), all defense articles controlled for export or import are part of the USML under the AECA. For the sake of clarity, the list of defense articles controlled by ATF for the purpose of permanent import is the U.S. Munitions Import List (USMIL). The transfer of defense articles from the ITAR’s USML to the EAR’s CCL for the purpose of export control does not affect the list of defense articles controlled on the USMIL under the AECA for the purpose of permanent import. Export Control Reform Update Pursuant to the President’s Export Control Reform (ECR) initiative, the Department published proposed revisions to thirteen USML categories— and upon the effective date of this rule will have revised fifteen USML categories—to create a more positive control list and eliminate, where possible, ‘‘catch all’’ controls in the USML. The Department, along with the Departments of Commerce and Defense, reviewed the public comments the Department received on the proposed rules and, where appropriate, revised the rules. A discussion of the comments relevant to the USML categories that are part of this rule is included later on in this rule. The Department continues to review the remaining USML categories and will publish them as proposed rules in the coming months. Discussions of the public comments relevant to six of the USML categories that have been published as final rules are in ‘‘Amendment to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations: Initial Implementation of Export Control Reform,’’ published April 16, 2013 (78 FR 22740), and ‘‘Amendment to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations: Continued Implementation of Export Control Reform,’’ published July 8, 2013 (78 FR 40922). These rules also contain policies and procedures regarding the licensing of items moving from the export jurisdiction of the Department of State to the Department of Commerce, a definition for specially designed, responses to public comments, and changes to other sections of the ITAR that affect the categories discussed in this rule. PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Pursuant to ECR, the Department of Commerce has been publishing revisions to the EAR, including various revisions to the CCL. Revision of the USML and CCL are coordinated so there is uninterrupted regulatory coverage for items moving from the jurisdiction of the Department of State to that of the Department of Commerce. The Department of Commerce’s companion to this rule is, ‘‘Control of Military Training Equipment, Energetic Materials, Personal Protective Equipment, Shelters, Articles Related to Launch Vehicles, Missiles, Rockets, Military Explosives, and Related Items.’’ It is published elsewhere in this edition of the Federal Register. Changes in This Rule The following changes are made to the ITAR with this final rule: (i) Revision of U.S. Munitions List (USML) Categories IV (Launch Vehicles, Guided Missiles, Ballistic Missiles, Rockets, Torpedoes, Bombs, and Mines), V (Explosives and Energetic Materials, Propellants, Incendiary Agents, and Their Constituents), IX (Military Training Equipment), X (Personal Protective Equipment), and XVI (Nuclear Weapons Related Articles); (ii) addition of a definition for the term ‘‘equipment’’; (iii) continued implementation of a new licensing procedure for the export of items subject to the EAR that are to be exported with defense articles; and (iv) related changes to other ITAR sections. Revision of USML Category IV This final rule revises USML Category IV, covering launch vehicles, guided missiles, ballistic missiles, rockets, torpedoes, bombs, and mines, to describe more precisely the articles warranting control on the USML. Paragraph (a) is revised to remove demolition blocks and blasting caps, and to add subparagraphs (1) through (12) to more clearly describe the articles controlled in (a). ITAR § 121.11, which further describes demolition blocks and blasting caps, is removed. Paragraphs (b) and (d) are revised to more specifically enumerate the articles controlled therein. The articles of paragraph (e), military explosive excavating devices, are transferred to the jurisdiction of the Department of Commerce under ECCN 0A604.b. The articles of paragraph (f), ablative materials, were moved to USML Category XIII(d) (see 78 FR 40922). Paragraph (h) is revised by removing its broad catch-all wording and adding subparagraphs (1) through (29) to specifically enumerate the articles controlled in that paragraph.

AGENCY: Department of State.

ACTION: Final rule, correction.

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

SUMMARY: The Department of State is correcting a final rule that
appeared in the Federal Register of July 8, 2013 (78 FR 40922). That
rule amended the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) to
revise four U.S. Munitions List (USML) categories and provide new and
revised definitions.

DATES: This rule is effective January 6, 2014.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Sarah J. Heidema, Deputy Director,
Office of Defense Trade Controls Policy, Department of State, telephone

Change, Corrections to Second ECR Final Rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department provides the following
corrections to the rule, ``Amendment to the International Traffic in
Arms Regulations: Continued Implementation of Export Control Reform,''
published on July 8, 2013 and effective on January 6, 2014 (78 FR
40922). As part of the President's Export Control Reform (ECR) effort,
that rule amended the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR)
to revise four U.S. Munitions List (USML) categories and provide new
and revised definitions.
The changes in this rule are meant to clarify the regulation by
correcting punctuation, providing exact effective dates for the
paragraphs regarding developmental articles, and providing a revised
Supplement No. 1 to part 126, which takes into account the changes made
to the USML categories revised in the rule published on July 8, 2013.
Pursuant to ECR, the Department of Commerce has been publishing
revisions to the Export Administration Regulations, including various
revisions to the Commerce Control List (CCL). Revision of the USML and
CCL are coordinated so there is uninterrupted regulatory coverage for
items moving from the jurisdiction of the Department of State to that
of the Department of Commerce. The Department of Commerce's companion
to the rule corrected in this notice (see ``Revisions to the Export
Administration Regulations: Military Vehicles; Vessels of War;
Submersible Vessels, Oceanographic Equipment; Related Items; and
Auxiliary and Miscellaneous Items That the President Determines No
Longer Warrant Control Under the United States Munitions List,'' 78 FR
40892) is also corrected in this edition of the Federal Register.
The following corrections are made to the rule, ``Amendment to the
International Traffic in Arms Regulations: Continued Implementation of
Export Control Reform,'' published on July 8, 2013:

the principle provided in the first rule implementing Export Control
Reform (see 78 FR 22740): where there is overlap in control regarding a
particular article, the control of the revised USML category supersedes
that of the unrevised USML category.''

act; any manually-emplaced munition or device designed to kill, injure, or damage and which is actuated by
remote control or automatically after a lapse of time.
Note 16: The cluster munitions that are subject to this exclusion are set forth below:
The Convention on Cluster Munitions, signed December 3, 2008, and entered into force on August 1, 2010, defines
a ``cluster munition'' as:
A conventional munition that is designed to disperse or release explosive submunitions each weighing less than
20 kilograms, and includes those explosive submunitions. Under the Convention, a ``cluster munition'' does not
include the following munitions:
(a) A munition or submunition designed to dispense flares, smoke, pyrotechnics or chaff; or a munition designed
exclusively for an air defense role;
(b) A munition or submunition designed to produce electrical or electronic effects;
(c) A munition that, in order to avoid indiscriminate area effects and the risks posed by unexploded
submunitions, has all of the following characteristics:
(1) Each munition contains fewer than ten explosive submunitions;
(2) Each explosive submunition weighs more than four kilograms;
(3) Each explosive submunition is designed to detect and engage a single target object;
(4) Each explosive submunition is equipped with an electronic self-destruction mechanism; and
(5) Each explosive submunition is equipped with an electronic self-deactivating feature.
Pursuant to U.S. law (Pub. L. 111-117, section 7055(b)), no military assistance shall be furnished for cluster
munitions, no defense export license for cluster munitions may be issued, and no cluster munitions or cluster
munitions technology shall be sold or transferred, unless:
(a) The submunitions of the cluster munitions, after arming, do not result in more than 1 percent unexploded
ordnance across the range of intended operational environments; and
(b) The agreement applicable to the assistance, transfer or sale of such cluster munitions or cluster munitions
technology specifies that the cluster munitions will only be used against clearly defined military targets and
will not be used where civilians are known to be present or in areas normally inhabited by civilians.
Note 17: The radar systems described are controlled in USML Category XI(a)(3)(i) through (v). As used in this
entry, the term ``systems'' includes equipment, devices, software, assemblies, modules, components, practices,
processes, methods, approaches, schema, frameworks, and models.
*An ``X'' in the chart indicates that the item is excluded from use under the exemption referenced in the top of
the column. An item excluded in any one row is excluded regardless of whether other rows may contain a
description that would include the item.
