Addition of Entities to the Entity List
Bureau of Industry and
Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
In this final rule, the Bureau
of Industry and Security (BIS) amends
the Export Administration Regulations
(EAR) to further implement U.S.
sanctions on selected Burmese
government ministries and related
enterprises. Specifically, BIS amends
the EAR by adding four entities to the
Entity List under the destination of
Burma. These four entities have been
determined by the U.S. Government to
be acting contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the
United States. The actions in this rule
support the United States Government’s
efforts to promote a return to democracy
in Burma following the February 1, 2021
Burmese military coup. They also reflect
the United States Government’s goal of
supporting the people of Burma by
preventing Burma’ military and security
services from obtaining items subject to
the EAR.
DATES: This rule is effective March 8,
2021.

SUMMARY:
Entity List
The Entity List (15 CFR, subchapter C,
part 744, Supplement No. 4) identifies
entities reasonably believed to be
involved in, or to pose a significant risk
of being or becoming involved in,
activities contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the
United States. The Export
Administration Regulations (EAR) (15
CFR parts 730–774) impose additional
license requirements on, and limit the
availability of most license exceptions
for exports, reexports, and transfers (incountry) to listed entities. The license
review policy for each listed entity is
identified in the ‘‘License review
policy’’ column on the Entity List, and
the impact on the availability of license
exceptions is described in the relevant

Federal Register document adding
entities to the Entity List. BIS places
entities on the Entity List pursuant to
part 744 (Control Policy: End-User and
End-Use Based) and part 746
(Embargoes and Other Special Controls)
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. The Departments
represented on the ERC have approved
these changes to the Entity List.
Additions to the Entity List Made in
Response to the February 1, 2021
Military Coup in Burma
BIS is making additions to the Entity
List as part of a broader U.S.
Government response to the February 1,
2021 coup by the military in Burma,
which overthrew Burma’s
democratically-elected government, and
the military’s subsequent arrest and
detention of government leaders, human
rights defenders, and journalists. On
February 10, 2021, President Biden
signed Executive Order (E.O.) 14014,
‘‘Blocking Property With Respect to the
Situation in Burma’’ (E.O. 14104) in
which he declared a national emergency
to address the threat posed to the United
States by the situation in, and in
relation to, Burma following the coup.
See 86 FR 9429 (Feb. 12, 2021).
Since February 10, 2021, BIS has
taken action under the EAR to
strengthen export controls on Burma
and address the foreign policy and
national security concerns that formed
the basis for the issuance of E.O. 14104.
On February 18, 2021, BIS published a
rule in the Federal Register adopting a
more restrictive review policy of a
presumption of denial for license
applications involving items subject to
the EAR that require a license for export
and reexport and that are destined for
Burma’s Ministry of Defence, Ministry
of Home Affairs, armed forces, or
security services. The February 18, 2021
rule also suspended the availability in
part or in full of four license exceptions
in part 740 of the EAR for items
destined for Burma. See 86 FR 10011
(Feb. 18, 2021). As part of an additional
final rule, BIS imposed additional
restrictions on Burma, including by
removing the country from Country
Group B, and placing it in the more
restrictive Country Group D:1, and by
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
13179
adding it to the list of countries subject
to defined ‘military end use’ and
‘military end user’ restrictions. See
supp. no. 1 to part 740 and §§ 742.4 and
744.21 of the EAR.
In this rule, BIS is taking additional
steps in response to the situation in
Burma. BIS is adding four entities,
including specifically identified aliases,
to the Entity List under the destination
of Burma: The Ministry of Defence, the
Ministry of Home Affairs, Myanmar
Economic Corporation, and Myanmar
Economic Holdings Limited. The
actions in this rule support the United
States Government’s efforts to promote
a return to democracy in Burma. In
particular, this rule enhances the U.S.
Government’s efforts to ensure that
items subject to the EAR are not
available to Burma’s Ministry of Defence
and the Ministry of Home Affairs, the
entities responsible for the coup, or the
two commercial entities owned and
operated by the Ministry of Defence,
Myanmar Economic Corporation and
Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited,
which provide revenue for the Ministry
of Defence.
The departments represented on the
ERC reviewed and applied § 744.11(b)
(Criteria for revising the Entity List) in
making the determination to add these
four entities to the Entity List. Under
paragraph (b), persons for whom there is
reasonable cause to believe, based on
specific and articulable facts, that they
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, along with those acting on behalf
of such persons, may be added to the
Entity List. Paragraphs (b)(1) through (5)
of § 744.11 provide an illustrative list of
activities that could be contrary to the
national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States. For each
of the four entities identified below, the
ERC made the requisite determination
based on the standard set forth in
§ 744.11(b). The four entities added to
the Entity List in this rule are involved
in activities that are contrary to the
national security and foreign policy of
the United States by being involved in,
or supporting, the military coup in
Burma.
For the four entities added to the
Entity List in this final rule, BIS
imposes a license requirement for all
items subject to the EAR and a license
review policy of presumption of denial.
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. The acronym ‘‘a.k.a.’’ (also known

as) is used in entries on the Entity List
to identify aliases, thereby assisting
exporters, reexporters, and transferors in
identifying entities on the Entity List.
For the reasons described above, this
final rule adds the following four
entities to the Entity List.
Burma
• Ministry of Defence;
• Ministry of Home Affairs;
• Myanmar Economic Corporation;
and
• Myanmar Economic Holdings
Limited.
Savings Clause
Shipments of items removed from
eligibility for a License Exception or
export or reexport without a license
(NLR) as a result of this regulatory
action that were en route aboard a
carrier to a port of export or reexport, on
March 8, 2021, 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 Control Reform Act of 2018
On August 13, 2018, President Donald
J. Trump signed into law the John S.
McCain National Defense Authorization
Act for Fiscal Year 2019, which
included the Export Control Reform Act
of 2018 (ECRA) (50 U.S.C. 4801–4852)
that provides the legal basis for BIS’s
principal authorities and serves as the
authority under which BIS issues this
rule.
Rulemaking Requirements
Executive Orders 13563 and 12866

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, of
reducing costs, of harmonizing rules,
and of promoting flexibility. This rule
has been determined to be not
significant for purposes of Executive
Order 12866.
Notwithstanding any other provision
of law, no person is required to respond
to or 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 42.5 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.
This rule does not contain policies
with Federalism implications as that
term is defined in Executive Order
13132.
Pursuant to section 1762 of the Export
Control Reform Act of 2018, this action
is exempt from the Administrative
Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553)
requirements for notice of proposed
rulemaking, opportunity for public
participation, and delay in effective
date.
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

not applicable. Accordingly, no
regulatory flexibility analysis is required
and none has been prepared.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: In this final rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS)
amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to further implement
U.S. sanctions on selected Burmese government ministries and related
enterprises. Specifically, BIS amends the EAR by adding four entities
to the Entity List under the destination of Burma. These four entities
have been determined by the U.S. Government to be acting contrary to
the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States.
The actions in this rule support the United States Government's efforts
to promote a return to democracy in Burma following the February 1,
2021 Burmese military coup. They also reflect the United States
Government's goal of supporting the people of Burma by preventing
Burma' military and security services from obtaining items subject to
the EAR.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Entity List
The Entity List (15 CFR, subchapter C, part 744, Supplement No. 4)
identifies entities reasonably believed to be involved in, or to pose a
significant risk of being or becoming involved in, activities contrary
to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United
States. The Export Administration Regulations (EAR) (15 CFR parts 730-
774) impose additional license requirements on, and limit the
availability of most license exceptions for exports, reexports, and
transfers (in-country) to listed entities. The license review policy
for each listed entity is identified in the ``License review policy''
column on the Entity List, and the impact on the availability of
license exceptions is described in the relevant Federal Register
document adding entities to the Entity List. BIS places entities on the
Entity List pursuant to part 744 (Control Policy: End-User and End-Use
Based) and part 746 (Embargoes and Other Special Controls) 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. The
Departments represented on the ERC have approved these changes to the
Entity List.
Additions to the Entity List Made in Response to the February 1, 2021
Military Coup in Burma
BIS is making additions to the Entity List as part of a broader
U.S. Government response to the February 1, 2021 coup by the military
in Burma, which overthrew Burma's democratically-elected government,
and the military's subsequent arrest and detention of government
leaders, human rights defenders, and journalists. On February 10, 2021,
President Biden signed Executive Order (E.O.) 14014, ``Blocking
Property With Respect to the Situation in Burma'' (E.O. 14104) in which
he declared a national emergency to address the threat posed to the
United States by the situation in, and in relation to, Burma following
the coup. See 86 FR 9429 (Feb. 12, 2021).
Since February 10, 2021, BIS has taken action under the EAR to
strengthen export controls on Burma and address the foreign policy and
national security concerns that formed the basis for the issuance of
E.O. 14104. On February 18, 2021, BIS published a rule in the Federal
Register adopting a more restrictive review policy of a presumption of
denial for license applications involving items subject to the EAR that
require a license for export and reexport and that are destined for
Burma's Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Home Affairs, armed forces, or
security services. The February 18, 2021 rule also suspended the
availability in part or in full of four license exceptions in part 740
of the EAR for items destined for Burma. See 86 FR 10011 (Feb. 18,
2021). As part of an additional final rule, BIS imposed additional
restrictions on Burma, including by removing the country from Country
Group B, and placing it in the more restrictive Country Group D:1, and
by adding it to the list of countries subject to defined `military end
use' and `military end user' restrictions. See supp. no. 1 to part 740
and Sec. Sec. 742.4 and 744.21 of the EAR.
In this rule, BIS is taking additional steps in response to the
situation in Burma. BIS is adding four entities, including specifically
identified aliases, to the Entity List under the destination of Burma:
The Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of Home Affairs, Myanmar Economic
Corporation, and Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited. The actions in this
rule support the United States Government's efforts to promote a return
to democracy in Burma. In particular, this rule enhances the U.S.
Government's efforts to ensure that items subject to the EAR are not
available to Burma's Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Home
Affairs, the entities responsible for the coup, or the two commercial
entities owned and operated by the Ministry of Defence, Myanmar
Economic Corporation and Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited, which
provide revenue for the Ministry of Defence.
The departments represented on the ERC reviewed and applied Sec.
744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) in making the
determination to add these four entities to the Entity List. Under
paragraph (b), persons for whom there is reasonable cause to believe,
based on specific and articulable facts, that they 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, along with those acting on
behalf of such persons, may be added to the Entity List. Paragraphs
(b)(1) through (5) of Sec. 744.11 provide an illustrative list of
activities that could be contrary to the national security or foreign
policy interests of the United States. For each of the four entities
identified below, the ERC made the requisite determination based on the
standard set forth in Sec. 744.11(b). The four entities added to the
Entity List in this rule are involved in activities that are contrary
to the national security and foreign policy of the United States by
being involved in, or supporting, the military coup in Burma.
For the four entities added to the Entity List in this final rule,
BIS imposes a license requirement for all items subject to the EAR and
a license review policy of presumption of denial. 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. The acronym ``a.k.a.'' (also known
[[Page 13180]]
as) is used in entries on the Entity List to identify aliases, thereby
assisting exporters, reexporters, and transferors in identifying
entities on the Entity List.
For the reasons described above, this final rule adds the following
four entities to the Entity List.
Burma
Ministry of Defence;
Ministry of Home Affairs;
Myanmar Economic Corporation; and
Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited.
Savings Clause
Shipments of items removed from eligibility for a License Exception
or export or reexport without a license (NLR) as a result of this
regulatory action that were en route aboard a carrier to a port of
export or reexport, on March 8, 2021, 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 Control Reform Act of 2018
On August 13, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law the
John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019,
which included the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 (ECRA) (50 U.S.C.
4801-4852) that provides the legal basis for BIS's principal
authorities and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this
rule.
Rulemaking Requirements
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, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting
flexibility. This rule has been determined to be not significant for
purposes of Executive Order 12866.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required
to respond to or 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
42.5 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.
This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications as
that term is defined in Executive Order 13132.
Pursuant to section 1762 of the Export Control Reform Act of 2018,
this action is exempt from the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553) requirements for notice of proposed rulemaking, opportunity for
public participation, and delay in effective date.
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.
