ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding sixteen persons under nineteen entries to the Entity List. The persons who are added to the Entity List have been determined by the U.S. Government to be acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. These persons will be listed on the Entity List under the destinations of Afghanistan, China, Hong Kong, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.). There are nineteen entries for sixteen persons because three persons are listed under multiple destinations, resulting in three additional entries: one person in the U.A.E. has an address in Iran and two persons in China each have one address in Hong Kong. DATES: This rule is effective August 1, 2014. emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:41 Jul 31, 2014 Jkt 232001 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chair, End-User Review Committee, Office of the Assistant Secretary, Export Administration, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, Phone: (202) 482–5991, Fax: (202) 482– 3911, Email: ERC@bis.doc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744) notifies the public about entities that have engaged in activities that could result in increased risk of diversion of exported, reexported or transferred (in-country) items to weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs. Since its initial publication, grounds for inclusion on the Entity List have expanded to include activities sanctioned by the State Department and activities contrary to U.S. national security or foreign policy interests. Certain exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to entities on the Entity List require licenses from BIS. License applications are reviewed with a presumption of denial. The availability of license exceptions for exports, reexports on transfers (in-country) is very limited. The license review policy for each entity is identified in the license review policy column on the Entity List. The availability of license exceptions is noted in the Federal Register notices adding persons to the Entity List. BIS places entities on the Entity List based on certain sections of part 744 (Control Policy: End-User and End-Use Based) of the EAR. The End-user Review Committee (ERC), composed of representatives of the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy and, where appropriate, the Treasury, makes all decisions regarding additions to, removals from, or other modifications to the Entity List. The ERC makes all decisions to add an entry to the Entity List by majority vote and all decisions to remove or modify an entry by unanimous vote. ERC Entity List Decisions Additions to the Entity List This rule implements the decision of the ERC to add sixteen persons under nineteen entries to the Entity List on the basis of § 744.11 (License requirements that apply to entities acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States) of the EAR. The nineteen entries added to the Entity List consist of five entries in Afghanistan, seven entries in China, two entries in Hong Kong, one entry in Iran, and four entries in the U.A.E. PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 The ERC reviewed § 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) in making the determination to add these sixteen persons to the Entity List. Under that paragraph, entities for whom there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, have been involved, are involved, or pose a significant risk of being or becoming involved, in activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States, and those acting on behalf of such persons may be added to the Entity List. Paragraphs (b)(1) through (b)(5) of § 744.11 include an illustrative list of activities that could be contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. The ERC determined to add four persons—FIMCO FZE, Crescent International Trade and Services FZE, Khosrow Kasraei, and Mujhid Ali– to the Entity List under five entries under the destinations of Iran and the U.A.E. on the basis of their involvement in activities contrary to the national security and foreign policy of the United States, under § 744.11(b)(2). These companies and their affiliates have been engaging in conduct that poses a risk of violating the EAR, specifically with regard to the attempted illicit reexport of U.S.-origin items to Iran, under § 744.11(b)(2). These four persons were involved in the attempted export of a lathe machine subject to the EAR to Iran in violation of Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control regulations and the EAR. Lathe machines are used in the production of high grade steel or ‘‘bright steel’’, which in turn may be used, among other things, in the manufacture of automobile and aircraft parts. The ERC determined to add five persons—Emal Bilal Construction Company, Wahab Karwan Construction Company, Mohammad Jan Khan Mangal, Shan Mahmoud Khan Mangal, and Emal Bilal Mangal—to the Entity List under the destination of Afghanistan for involvement in activities contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States, specifically the activities described under paragraph (b)(1) (Supporting persons engaged in acts of terror) of § 744.11 of the EAR. These persons have engaged in activities in support of persons designated by the Secretary of State as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). The persons designated as FTOs were so designated as a result of their activities against U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan contrary to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. E:\FR\FM\01AUR1.SGM 01AUR1 emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with RULES Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 148 / Friday, August 1, 2014 / Rules and Regulations The ERC determined to add four persons—Beijing Aeronautics Yangpu Technology Investment Company (BAYTIC), Chengdu GaStone Technology Co. Ltd. (CGTC), China Electronics Technology Group Corporation 29 (CETC 29) Research Institute, and Jiangsu Leidian Technology Company (JLTC)—to the Entity List under the destination of China on the basis of their involvement in activities contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States. Specifically, the ERC determined that these persons have been involved in the activities described under paragraph § 744.11(b)(5) of the EAR. Paragraph (b)(5) specifies that the types of activities that could be contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States include engaging in conduct that poses a risk of violating the EAR when such conduct raises sufficient concern that the ERC believes that prior review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) involving the party and the possible imposition of license conditions or license denial enhances BIS’s ability prevent violations of the EAR. The ERC has reasonable cause to believe that BAYTIC, CGTC, CETC 29 Research Institute and JLTC, have been involved in the illicit procurement of commodities and technologies for unauthorized military end use in China. The ERC also determined to add one person located in China—Qing’an International Trading Group (QTC)—to the Entity List on the basis of its involvement in activities contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States. Specifically, the ERC determined that this person has been involved in the activities described under paragraph § 744.11(b)(5) of the EAR. The ERC has reasonable cause to believe that Qing’an International Trading Group has been involved in the illicit procurement of commodities and technologies for unauthorized military end use in China. Finally, the ERC determined that PRC Lode Technology Company and Su Bin, both located in both China and Hong Kong, should be added to the Entity List on the basis of their involvement in activities contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States. Specifically, the ERC determined that these two persons have been involved in the activities described under paragraph § 744.11(b)(5) of the EAR. The ERC has reasonable cause to believe that PRC Lode Technology Company and Su Bin have been involved in the unauthorized exploitation of computer systems of U.S. companies and Department of Defense VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:22 Jul 31, 2014 Jkt 232001 contractors to illicitly obtain and export information, including controlled technology related to military projects, contrary to U.S. law. For the sixteen persons recommended for addition, the ERC specified a license requirement for all items subject to the EAR and a license review policy of presumption of denial. The license requirements apply to any transaction in which items are to be exported, reexported, or transferred (in-country) to any of the persons or in which such persons act as purchaser, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or enduser. In addition, no license exceptions are available for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) to the persons being added to the Entity List in this rule. This final rule adds the following sixteen persons under nineteen entries to the Entity List: Afghanistan (1) Emal Bilal Construction Company (EBCC), a.k.a., the following two aliases: —Imal Bilal Road Construction Company; and —Aimal and Balal Company.

Export Administration Act 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 amended by Executive Order 13637 of March 8, 2013, 78 FR 16129 (March 13, 2013) and as extended by the Notice of August 8, 2013, 78 FR 49107 (August 12, 2013), 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 as amended by Executive Order 13637. 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, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, reducing costs, harmonizing rules, and promoting flexibility. This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of Executive Order 12866. 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 number 0694–0088, Simplified Network Application Processing System, which includes, among other things, license applications and carries a burden estimate of 43.8 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. PO 00000 Frm 00048 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Total burden hours associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694–0088 are not expected to increase as a result of this rule. 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 in Executive Order 13132. 4. For the sixteen persons added under nineteen entries to the Entity List in this final rule, the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for public comment and a delay in effective date are inapplicable because this regulation involves a military or foreign affairs function of the United States. (See 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). BIS implements this rule to protect U.S. national security or foreign policy interests by preventing items from being exported, reexported, or transferred (in country) to the persons being added to the Entity List. If this rule were delayed to allow for notice and comment and a delay in effective date, then entities being added to the Entity List by this action would continue to be able to receive items without a license and to conduct activities contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. In addition, because these parties may receive notice of the U.S. Government’s intention to place these entities on the Entity List if a proposed rule is published, doing so would create an incentive for these persons to either accelerate receiving items subject to the EAR to conduct activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States, or to take steps to set up additional aliases, change addresses, and other measures to try to limit the impact of the listing on the Entity List once a final rule was published. Further, no other law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment be given for this rule. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are not required to be given for this rule by 5 U.S.C. 553, or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., are not applicable. Accordingly, no regulatory flexibility analysis is required and none has been prepared.

The FAA Act provides that these regulations should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of misleading statements on labels and ensure that labels provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the product. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) administers the FAA Act pursuant to section 1111(d) of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, codified at 6 U.S.C. 531(d). The Secretary has delegated various authorities through Treasury Department Order 120–01 (Revised), dated December 10, 2013, to the TTB Administrator to perform the functions and duties in the administration and enforcement of this law. Part 4 of the TTB regulations (27 CFR 4) authorizes the establishment of definitive viticultural areas and the use of their names as appellations of origin on wine labels and in wine advertisements.

Addition of Certain Persons to the Entity List

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) 
by adding sixteen persons under nineteen entries to the Entity List. 
The persons who are added to the Entity List have been determined by 
the U.S. Government to be acting contrary to the national security or 
foreign policy interests of the United States. These persons will be 
listed on the Entity List under the destinations of Afghanistan, China, 
Hong Kong, Iran, and the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.). There are 
nineteen entries for sixteen persons because three persons are listed 
under multiple destinations, resulting in three additional entries: one 
person in the U.A.E. has an address in Iran and two persons in China 
each have one address in Hong Kong.

DATES: This rule is effective August 1, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744) notifies the public 
about entities that have engaged in activities that could result in 
increased risk of diversion of exported, reexported or transferred (in-
country) items to weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs. Since its 
initial publication, grounds for inclusion on the Entity List have 
expanded to include activities sanctioned by the State Department and 
activities contrary to U.S. national security or foreign policy 
interests. Certain exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to 
entities on the Entity List require licenses from BIS. License 
applications are reviewed with a presumption of denial. The 
availability of license exceptions for exports, reexports on transfers 
(in-country) is very limited. The license review policy for each entity 
is identified in the license review policy column on the Entity List. 
The availability of license exceptions is noted in the Federal Register 
notices adding persons to the Entity List. BIS places entities on the 
Entity List based on certain sections of part 744 (Control Policy: End-
User and End-Use Based) of the EAR.
    The End-user Review Committee (ERC), composed of representatives of 
the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy and, where 
appropriate, the Treasury, makes all decisions regarding additions to, 
removals from, or other modifications to the Entity List. The ERC makes 
all decisions to add an entry to the Entity List by majority vote and 
all decisions to remove or modify an entry by unanimous vote.

ERC Entity List Decisions

Additions to the Entity List

    This rule implements the decision of the ERC to add sixteen persons 
under nineteen entries to the Entity List on the basis of Sec.  744.11 
(License requirements that apply to entities acting contrary to the 
national security or foreign policy interests of the United States) of 
the EAR. The nineteen entries added to the Entity List consist of five 
entries in Afghanistan, seven entries in China, two entries in Hong 
Kong, one entry in Iran, and four entries in the U.A.E.
    The ERC reviewed Sec.  744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity 
List) in making the determination to add these sixteen persons to the 
Entity List. Under that paragraph, entities for whom there is 
reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, 
have been involved, are involved, or pose a significant risk of being 
or becoming involved, in activities that are contrary to the national 
security or foreign policy interests of the United States, and those 
acting on behalf of such persons may be added to the Entity List. 
Paragraphs (b)(1) through (b)(5) of Sec.  744.11 include an 
illustrative list of activities that could be contrary to the national 
security or foreign policy interests of the United States.
    The ERC determined to add four persons--FIMCO FZE, Crescent 
International Trade and Services FZE, Khosrow Kasraei, and Mujhid Ali- 
to the Entity List under five entries under the destinations of Iran 
and the U.A.E. on the basis of their involvement in activities contrary 
to the national security and foreign policy of the United States, under 
Sec.  744.11(b)(2). These companies and their affiliates have been 
engaging in conduct that poses a risk of violating the EAR, 
specifically with regard to the attempted illicit reexport of U.S.-
origin items to Iran, under Sec.  744.11(b)(2). These four persons were 
involved in the attempted export of a lathe machine subject to the EAR 
to Iran in violation of Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign 
Assets Control regulations and the EAR. Lathe machines are used in the 
production of high grade steel or ``bright steel'', which in turn may 
be used, among other things, in the manufacture of automobile and 
aircraft parts.
    The ERC determined to add five persons--Emal Bilal Construction 
Company, Wahab Karwan Construction Company, Mohammad Jan Khan Mangal, 
Shan Mahmoud Khan Mangal, and Emal Bilal Mangal--to the Entity List 
under the destination of Afghanistan for involvement in activities 
contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the 
United States, specifically the activities described under paragraph 
(b)(1) (Supporting persons engaged in acts of terror) of Sec.  744.11 
of the EAR. These persons have engaged in activities in support of 
persons designated by the Secretary of State as a Foreign Terrorist 
Organization (FTO). The persons designated as FTOs were so designated 
as a result of their activities against U.S. and coalition forces in 
Afghanistan contrary to the national security and foreign policy of the 
United States.

[[Page 44681]]

    The ERC determined to add four persons--Beijing Aeronautics Yangpu 
Technology Investment Company (BAYTIC), Chengdu GaStone Technology Co. 
Ltd. (CGTC), China Electronics Technology Group Corporation 29 (CETC 
29) Research Institute, and Jiangsu Leidian Technology Company (JLTC)--
to the Entity List under the destination of China on the basis of their 
involvement in activities contrary to the national security and foreign 
policy interests of the United States. Specifically, the ERC determined 
that these persons have been involved in the activities described under 
paragraph Sec.  744.11(b)(5) of the EAR. Paragraph (b)(5) specifies 
that the types of activities that could be contrary to the national 
security or foreign policy interests of the United States include 
engaging in conduct that poses a risk of violating the EAR when such 
conduct raises sufficient concern that the ERC believes that prior 
review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) involving the 
party and the possible imposition of license conditions or license 
denial enhances BIS's ability prevent violations of the EAR. The ERC 
has reasonable cause to believe that BAYTIC, CGTC, CETC 29 Research 
Institute and JLTC, have been involved in the illicit procurement of 
commodities and technologies for unauthorized military end use in 
China.
    The ERC also determined to add one person located in China--Qing'an 
International Trading Group (QTC)--to the Entity List on the basis of 
its involvement in activities contrary to the national security and 
foreign policy interests of the United States. Specifically, the ERC 
determined that this person has been involved in the activities 
described under paragraph Sec.  744.11(b)(5) of the EAR. The ERC has 
reasonable cause to believe that Qing'an International Trading Group 
has been involved in the illicit procurement of commodities and 
technologies for unauthorized military end use in China.
    Finally, the ERC determined that PRC Lode Technology Company and Su 
Bin, both located in both China and Hong Kong, should be added to the 
Entity List on the basis of their involvement in activities contrary to 
the national security and foreign policy interests of the United 
States. Specifically, the ERC determined that these two persons have 
been involved in the activities described under paragraph Sec.  
744.11(b)(5) of the EAR. The ERC has reasonable cause to believe that 
PRC Lode Technology Company and Su Bin have been involved in the 
unauthorized exploitation of computer systems of U.S. companies and 
Department of Defense contractors to illicitly obtain and export 
information, including controlled technology related to military 
projects, contrary to U.S. law.
    For the sixteen persons recommended for addition, the ERC specified 
a license requirement for all items subject to the EAR and a license 
review policy of presumption of denial. The license requirements apply 
to any transaction in which items are to be exported, reexported, or 
transferred (in-country) to any of the persons or in which such persons 
act as purchaser, intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or end-
user. In addition, no license exceptions are available for exports, 
reexports, or transfers (in-country) to the persons being added to the 
Entity List in this rule.
    This final rule adds the following sixteen persons under nineteen 
entries to the Entity List:

    Shipments of items removed from eligibility for a License Exception

regulatory action that were en route aboard a carrier to a port of 
export or reexport, on August 1, 2014, pursuant to actual orders for 
export or reexport to a foreign destination, may proceed to that 
destination under the previous eligibility for a License Exception or 
export or reexport without a license (NLR).

Export Administration Act

    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 amended by Executive Order 13637 of March 
8, 2013, 78 FR 16129 (March 13, 2013) and as extended by the Notice of 
August 8, 2013, 78 FR 49107 (August 12, 2013), 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 as amended by Executive Order 
13637.

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, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive 
Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and 
benefits, reducing costs, harmonizing rules, and promoting flexibility. 
This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of 
Executive Order 12866.
    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 number 0694-0088, 
Simplified Network Application Processing System, which includes, among 
other things, license applications and carries a burden 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 not expected to increase as a result of this rule. 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 in Executive Order 13132.
    4. For the sixteen persons added under nineteen entries to the 
Entity List in this final rule, the provisions of the Administrative 
Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, 
the opportunity for public comment and a delay in effective date are 
inapplicable because this regulation involves a military or foreign 
affairs function of the United States. (See 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). BIS 
implements this rule to protect U.S. national security or foreign 
policy interests by preventing items from being exported, reexported, 
or transferred (in country) to the persons being added to the Entity 
List. If this rule were delayed to allow for notice and comment and a 
delay in effective date, then entities being added to the Entity List 
by this action would continue to be able to receive items without a 
license and to conduct activities contrary to the national security or 
foreign policy interests of the United States. In addition, because 
these parties may receive notice of the U.S. Government's intention to 
place these entities on the Entity List if a proposed rule is 
published, doing so would create an incentive for these persons to 
either accelerate receiving items subject to the EAR to conduct 
activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy 
interests of the United States, or to take steps to set up additional 
aliases, change addresses, and other measures to try to limit the 
impact of the listing on the Entity List once a final rule was 
published. Further, no other law requires that a notice of proposed 
rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment be given for this 
rule. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for 
public comment are not required to be given for this rule by 5 U.S.C. 
553, or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., are not applicable. Accordingly, 
no regulatory flexibility analysis is required and none has been 
prepared.
