Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 204 / Tuesday, October 24, 2017 / Notices
the Single Channel Ground and
Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS)
family. SINCGARS is a tactical radio
providing secure jam-resistant voice and
data communications of command,
control, targeting, and technical
information for the Terminal High
Altitude Air Defense (THAAD) system.
The spread-spectrum frequency hopping
Electronic Counter-Counter Measures
(ECCM) technology resident in the radio
is sensitive but UNCLASSIFIED. While
sensitive, the frequency-hopping
algorithms used to generate the ECCM
waveform are unique to the country of
ownership and cannot be manipulated
by potential adversaries for use or
interference with other countries
possessing SINCGARS technology.
Should a potential adversary come into
possession of one of these radios, they
would have the potential to intercept
operational command, control, and
targeting information. This potential
problem is mitigated by the fact that the
customer can secure information passed
over the radio network using a
commercial grade security capability
equivalent to an Advanced Encryption
Standard (AES) 256-bit encryption
system whose keys are controlled by the
customer country.
5. As with the SINCGARS family of
radios, the AN/PRC–117 is a tactical
radio providing ECCM jam-resistant
secure communications for exchange of
command, control, and targeting
information within the THAAD system
tactical radio network. ECCM
capabilities are sensitive but
UNCLASSIFIED and algorithms for
these jam-resistant waveforms are
unique to the customer country. Unlike
the SINCGARS radios, the AN/PRC–117
uses Type 1 encryption. When loaded
with U.S. crypto keys, the system is
then CLASSIFIED up to SECRET.
Should a potential adversary come into
possession of one of these radios, the
customer country can quickly remotely
rekey remaining radios, preventing
potential adversaries from
understanding received command,
control, and targeting information.
6. The Defense Advanced Global
Positioning System (GPS) Receiver
(DAGR) is a handheld GPS location
device with map background displaying
the user’s location. Unlike commercial
grade GPS receivers capable of receiving
Standard Positioning Signals (SPS) from
GPS satellites, the DAGR is capable of
receiving Precise Positioning Signals
(PPS). PPS satellite signals provide
significantly more accurate location data
than do SPS signals. This capability
within DAGRs is possible due to the
Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing
Module (SAASM). The SAASM is an
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
encrypted device permitting both
receipt of PPS signals and the benefit of
preventing potential adversaries from
spoofing the system to display incorrect
location information. The SAASM
capability within the DAGR is sensitive
but UNCLASSIFIED. The SAASM
capabilities are sensitive due to the
system’s ability to access restricted PPS
GPS satellite signals and to prevent
spoofing. While sensitive, the ability of
potential adversaries to exploit the
system is limited.
7. The same SAASM capabilities
resident in the DAGR are also resident
in the THAAD GPS timing system. The
THAAD system requires highly precise
timing hacks in order accurately track
and engage targets. The PPS signals
generated by GPS satellites provide this
precise timing information. The SAASM
device resident in the timing system
permits receipt of this precise PPS
timing data. The SAASM is an
encrypted device permitting both
receipt of PPS signals and the benefit of
preventing potential adversaries from
spoofing the system to display incorrect
data. The SAASM capability within the
timing system is sensitive but
UNCLASSIFIED.
8. If a technologically advanced
adversary were to obtain knowledge of
specific hardware, the information
could be used to develop
countermeasures which might reduce
weapons system effectiveness or be used
in the development of a system with
similar or advanced capabilities.
9. A determination has been made
that Saudi Arabia can provide
substantially the same degree of
protection for sensitive technology
being released as the U.S. Government.
This proposed sustainment program is
necessary to the furtherance of the U.S.
foreign policy and national security
objectives outlined in the policy
justification.
10. All defense articles and services
listed on this transmittal are authorized
for release and export to the Kingdom of
Saudi Arabia.

Fourchon LNG LLC; Application for
Long-Term, Multi-Contract
Authorization To Export Liquefied
Natural Gas to Non-Free Trade
Agreement Nations
Office of Fossil Energy, DOE.
Notice of application.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Office of Fossil Energy
(FE) of the Department of Energy (DOE)
gives notice of receipt of an application
(Application), filed on August 17, 2017,
by Fourchon LNG LLC (Fourchon LNG),
requesting long-term, multi-contract
authorization to export domestically
produced liquefied natural gas (LNG) in
a volume equivalent to 260 billion cubic
feet (Bcf) per year. Fourchon LNG seeks
authorization to export this LNG from a
proposed natural gas liquefaction
facility to be located on Port Fourchon
at Belle Pass in Lafourche Parish,
Louisiana (Facility). Fourchon LNG
proposes to site, construct, own, and
operate this Facility with a peak
capacity of approximately five million
tonnes per annum (mtpa). The Facility
will be developed in phases, with the
first phase expected to have a capacity
of two mtpa, to be followed by the
remaining LNG trains as demand
develops, each of which will have a
capacity of 0.5 mtpa. Fourchon LNG
requests authorization to export this
LNG to countries with which trade is
not prohibited by U.S. law or policy,
including both countries with which the
United States has entered into a free
trade agreement (FTA) requiring
national treatment for trade in natural
gas (FTA countries) and all other
countries (non-FTA countries).
Fourchon LNG requests the non-FTA
authorization for a term of 20 years, to
commence on the date of first export
following the commencement of
operations or seven years from the date
of a final order granting export
authorization, whichever is first.
Fourchon LNG is requesting this
authorization on its own behalf and as
agent for other entities who hold title to
the natural gas at the time of export.
Fourchon LNG filed the Application
under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act
(NGA). Additional details can be found
in Fourchon LNG’s Application, posted
on the DOE/FE Web site at https://
www.energy.gov/fe/downloads/
