Agency Information Collection
Activities; Submission to the Office of

Review and Approval; Comment
Request; Household Pulse Survey
On October 31, 2020, the Department
of Commerce received clearance from
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 to
conduct the Household Pulse Survey
(OMB No. 0607–1013, Exp. 10/31/23).
The Household Pulse Survey was
designed to meet a need for timely
information associated with household
experiences during the Covid-19
pandemic.
The Department is committed to
ensuring that the data collected by the
Household Pulse Survey continue to
meet information needs as they may
evolve over the course of the pandemic.
This notice serves to inform of the
Department’s intent to request clearance
from OMB to make some revisions to
the Household Pulse Survey
questionnaire. To ensure public burden
is not increased, the revisions would
reflect the removal of questions for
which utility has declined over time,
and the addition of topics based on
public comment previously received
and in consult with other Federal
agencies. New questions would relate to
disability, child health access,
telehealth and childcare. In addition,
given the time-critical circumstances,
questions on intention to receive the
Covid-19 vaccine were added via a
request approved by OMB on December
30, 2020 to coincide with the
availability of vaccines; questions
previously approved by OMB relating to
the economic stimulus payments were
also released into production once
payments began to be issued.
It is the Department’s intention to
commence data collection using the
revised instrument on or about March 1,
2021. The Department invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to comment on proposed, and
continuing information collections,
which helps us assess the impact of our
information collection requirements and
minimize the public’s reporting burden.
Public comments were previously
sought on the Household Pulse Survey
via the Federal Register on May 19,
2020 and again on June 3, 2020. This
notice allows for an additional 30 days
for public comments on the proposed
revisions.

In the Matter of: Issam Hamade, Beirut,
Galerie Semaan, Behind Karout Mall,
Kalaa Building 3rd Floor, Beirut,
Lebanon; Order Denying Export
Privileges
On April 27, 2020, in the U.S. District
Court for the District of Minnesota,
Issam Hamade (‘‘Hamade’’), was
convicted of violating 18 U.S.C. 371.
Specifically, Hamade was convicted of
conspiring to export parts and
technology from the United States to
Lebanon, and specifically to Hizballah,
for among other purposes, inclusion in
unmanned aerial vehicles, without
obtaining the required export licenses
under the Export Administration
Regulations or under the International
Traffic in Arms Regulations. Hamade
was sentenced to time served and a
$100 special assessment.
Pursuant to Section 1760(e) of the
Export Control Reform Act (‘‘ECRA’’),1
the export privileges of any person who
has been convicted of certain offenses,
including, but not limited to, 18 U.S.C.
371, may be denied for a period of up
to ten (10) years from the date of his/her
conviction. 50 U.S.C. 4819(e) (Prior
Convictions). In addition, any Bureau of
Industry and Security (BIS) licenses or
other authorizations issued under
ECRA, in which the person had an
interest at the time of the conviction,
may be revoked. Id.
BIS received notice of Hamade’s
conviction for violating 18 U.S.C. 371,
and has provided notice and
opportunity for Hamade to make a
written submission to BIS, as provided
in Section 766.25 of the Export
Administration Regulations (‘‘EAR’’ or
1 ECRA was enacted as part of the John S. McCain
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
2019, and as amended is codified at 50 U.S.C.
4801–4852. Hamade’s conviction post-dates ECRA’s
enactment on August 13, 2018.

the ‘‘Regulations’’). 15 CFR 766.25.2 BIS
has not received a written submission
from Hamade.
Based upon my review of the record
and consultations with BIS’s Office of
Exporter Services, including its
Director, and the facts available to BIS,
I have decided to deny Hamade’s export
privileges under the Regulations for a
period of 10 years from the date of
Hamade’s conviction. I have also
decided to revoke any BIS-issued
licenses in which Hamade had an
interest at the time of his conviction.3
Accordingly, it is hereby ordered:
First, from the date of this Order until
April 27, 2030, Issam Hamade, with a
last known address of Beirut, Galerie
Semaan, Behind Karout Mall, Kalaa
Building 3rd Floor, Beirut, Lebanon,
and when acting for or on his behalf, his
successors, assigns, employees, agents
or representatives (‘‘the Denied
Person’’), may not directly or indirectly
participate in any way in any
transaction involving any commodity,
software or technology (hereinafter
collectively referred to as ‘‘item’’)
exported or to be exported from the
United States that is subject to the
Regulations, including, but not limited
to:
A. Applying for, obtaining, or using
any license, license exception, or export
control document;
B. Carrying on negotiations
concerning, or ordering, buying,
receiving, using, selling, delivering,
storing, disposing of, forwarding,
transporting, financing, or otherwise
servicing in any way, any transaction
involving any item exported or to be
exported from the United States that is
subject to the Regulations, or engaging
in any other activity subject to the
Regulations; or
2 The Regulations are currently codified in the
Code of Federal Regulations at 15 CFR Parts 730–
774 (2020). The Regulations originally issued under
the Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended,
50 U.S.C. 4601–4623 (Supp. III 2015) (‘‘EAA’’),
which lapsed on August 21, 2001. The President,
through Executive Order 13,222 of August 17, 2001
(3 CFR, 2001 Comp. 783 (2002)), which was
extended by successive Presidential Notices,
continued the Regulations in full force and effect
under the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act, 50 U.S.C. 1701, et seq. (2012)
(‘‘IEEPA’’). Section 1768 of ECRA, 50 U.S.C. 4826,
provides in pertinent part that all rules and
regulations that were made or issued under the
EAA, including as continued in effect pursuant to
IEEPA, and were in effect as of ECRA’s date of
enactment (August 13, 2018), shall continue in
effect according to their terms until modified,
superseded, set aside, or revoked through action
undertaken pursuant to the authority provided
under ECRA. See note 1 above.
3 The Director, Office of Export Enforcement, is
now the authorizing official for issuance of denial
orders, pursuant to recent amendments to the
Regulations (85 FR 73411, November 18, 2020).
