Virtual Forum
Consistent with the interest of the
Department in soliciting public
comments on issues affecting risks in
the manufacturing of ICT products and
critical supply chains as described in
the September 20 Notice, the
Department is holding a virtual forum.
The virtual forum will assist the
Department in preparing the report
required by E.O. 14017. Oral comments
at the virtual forum should address the
policy objectives listed in E.O. 14017 as
they affect the U.S. ICT supply chains,
including recommendations to
strengthen critical, at-risk supply
chains. See the September 20 Notice
and E.O. 14017 for the policy objectives.
The virtual forum will be held on
October 29, 2021. The forum will begin
at 9:00 a.m. EDT and conclude at 12:00
p.m. EDT.
Procedure for Requesting Participation
See the ADDRESSES section of this
notice for how to register and access the
virtual forum. The Department
encourages interested public
participants to present their views orally
at the virtual forum. Any person
wishing to make an oral presentation at
the virtual forum must register with the
Department at the web address
indicated in the ADDRESSES section of
this notice. The request to speak in the
virtual forum must be accompanied by
an overview of the oral presentation.
Speakers’ registration, including
overviews of planned remarks, must be
received by the Department no later
than 5:00 p.m. EDT on October 22, 2021.
BIS will not accept any registrations
after that time for the virtual forum.
Please note that the submission of
overviews of presentations at the virtual
forum is separate from the request for
written comments described in the
September 20 Notice. Since it may be
necessary to limit the number of persons
making presentations, the overview of
the presentation should describe the
individual’s interest in the virtual forum
and, where appropriate, explain why
the individual is a proper representative
of a group or class of persons that has
such an interest. If all interested parties
cannot be accommodated at the virtual
forum, the overviews of the oral

presentations will be used to allocate
speaking time and to ensure that a full
range of comments is heard.
Each person selected to make a
presentation will be notified by the
Department no later than 5:00 p.m. EDT
on October 26, 2021. The Department
will arrange the presentation times for
the speakers. Representatives from the
Department and other U.S. Government
agencies, as appropriate, will make up
the virtual forum panel. Written
overview submissions by persons not
selected to make presentations will be
made part of the public record of the
proceeding, as will the overview
submission of those persons selected to
make presentations. Confidential
business information may not be
submitted at a virtual forum. The virtual
forum will be recorded.
Copies of the requests to speak at the
virtual forum and the transcript of the
forum will be maintained on BIS’s web
page, which can be found at https://
www.bis.doc.gov (see Freedom of
Information Act link at the bottom of the
page) and at https://www.bis.doc.gov/
ictforum. These documents will also be
posted through the Federal eRulemaking
Portal: https://www.regulations.gov
under docket number BIS–2021–0021,
which is the docket number for the
September 20 Notice. If the requesters
cannot access the website, they may call
(202) 482–0795 for assistance. The
records related to this assessment are
made accessible in accordance with the
regulations published in part 4 of title
15 of the Code of Federal Regulations
(15 CFR 4.1 through 4.11).
Conduct of the Virtual Forum
The Department reserves the right to
select the persons to be heard at the
virtual forum, to schedule their
respective presentations, and to
establish the procedures governing the
conduct of the virtual forum. Each
speaker will be limited to a time set by
the Department and comments must be
directly related to the policy objectives
listed in E.O. 14017 as they affect the
U.S. ICT supply chains, including
recommendations to strengthen critical,
at-risk supply chains.
A Department official will be
designated to preside at the virtual
forum. The presiding officer shall
determine all procedural matters during
the virtual forum. Representatives from
the Department, and other U.S.
Government agencies, as appropriate,
will make up the virtual forum panel.
This will be a fact-finding proceeding. It
will not be a judicial or evidentiary-type
virtual forum. Only members of the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
Export licenses approved by BIS are
granted to only those persons who
certify on the application that they are
subject to the jurisdiction of the United
States and that they will be strictly
accountable for the use of the license in
accordance with the EAR. Certain
circumstances such as company
mergers, company takeovers, etc.,
necessitate the transfer of an active
export license from one party to
another. When a licensee transfers an
unexpired license to another party,
there must be assurances that the other
party, the transferee, will also be
accountable for the proper use of the
license. The required information
collected from both parties provides
assurances that the balance of the
shipments will not be diverted or used
for purposes contrary to the authorized
use of the approved license.
II. Method of Collection
OMB Control Number: 0694–0126.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Review: Regular submission,
extension of a current information
collection.
