DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Bureau of Industry and Security 15 CFR Parts 744 and 772 [Docket No. 220901–0180] RIN 0694–AI06 Authorization of Certain ‘‘Items’’ to Entities on the Entity List in the Context of Specific Standards Activities Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce. ACTION: Interim final rule with request for comments. AGENCY: In this interim final rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to authorize the release of specified items subject to the EAR without a license when that release occurs in the context of a ‘‘standardsrelated activity,’’ as defined in this rule. BIS is revising the terms used in the EAR to describe the actions permissible under the authorization rather than defining the organizations to which it applies. The scope of the authorization is revised to include certain ‘‘technology’’ as well as ‘‘software’’ and applies to all entities listed on BIS’s Entity List. The uncertainty of not knowing whether other entities listed on the Entity List are participants in standards organizations and whether a BIS license is required to release lowlevel technology for legitimate standards activities has caused U.S. companies to limit their participation in standardsrelated activities in areas that are critical to U.S. national security. This authorization only overcomes licensing requirements imposed as a result of an entity’s inclusion on the Entity List; other EAR licensing requirements, including additional end-use or enduser based licensing requirements may continue to apply. This final rule does not change the assessment of whether jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 ‘‘technology’’ or ‘‘software’’ is subject to the EAR. BIS is making these revisions to ensure that export controls and associated compliance concerns as they relate to the Entity List do not impede the leadership and participation of U.S. companies in national and international standards-related activities DATES: Effective date: This rule is effective September 9, 2022. Comment date: Comments must be received by BIS no later than November 8, 2022.

Entity List Actions and the Temporary General License Effective May 16, 2019, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) added Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (Huawei) and sixty-eight of its non-U.S. affiliates to the Entity List (see 84 FR 22961 (May 21, 2019)). The Entity List (supplement no. 4 to part 744 of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) (15 CFR parts 730–774)) identifies entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, that the entities have been involved, are involved, or 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 EAR impose additional license requirements on, and limit the availability of most license exceptions for, exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to entities on the Entity List. The license review policy for each listed entity is identified in the ‘‘License review policy’’ column on the Entity List, and the availability of license exceptions is described in the relevant Federal Register notice adding the entity 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 addition of Huawei and its nonU.S. affiliates to the Entity List imposed a licensing requirement under the EAR regarding the export, reexport, and transfer (in-country) of most items subject to the EAR to the listed Huawei entities. On May 22, 2019 (84 FR 23468), BIS published a Temporary General License (TGL) which temporarily authorized engagement in certain transactions of items subject to the EAR with Huawei and its listed nonU.S. affiliates, including (but not limited to) engagement as necessary for development of 5G standards by a duly recognized standards body. Effective August 19, 2019 (84 FR 43493 (August 21, 2019)), an additional 46 non-U.S. affiliates of Huawei were placed on the Entity List with the same licensing requirements and TGL eligibility as Huawei and the initial sixty-eight non- E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 55242 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES U.S. affiliates. The TGL was also extended and amended (see 84 FR 43487 (August 21, 2019)) to remove the provision addressing engagement as necessary for development of 5G standards by a duly recognized standards body, on the basis of the BIS determination that existing provisions of the EAR sufficed for such engagement. In parallel with the publication of the August 21, 2019 rule, BIS posted a General Advisory Opinion on the BIS website, later rescinded and removed, that addressed the applicability of § 734.7 of the EAR (Published) (15 CFR 734.7) to certain types of releases to Huawei and its listed affiliates. TGL eligibility was subsequently continued through a series of extensions (see 84 FR 64018 (November 20, 2019), 85 FR 8722 (February 18, 2020), 85 FR 14416 (March 12, 2020) and 85 FR 29610 (May 18, 2020)). BIS allowed the TGL to expire on August 13, 2020, at which point the TGL was replaced with a more limited authorization to better protect U.S. national security and foreign policy interests, as implemented in a final rule effective August 17, 2020 (85 FR 51596, (August 20, 2020)). The August 17, 2020 rule also added thirty-eight additional non-U.S. affiliates of Huawei to the Entity List and revised General Prohibition Three (found in part 736 of the EAR). 2. Authorization for Release of Technology in the Context of Standards Organizations in the June 18, 2020 IFR In response to the addition of Huawei and its non-U.S. affiliates to the Entity List, and the related amendments, BIS received questions regarding the applicability of the EAR in the context of standards setting or development. On June 18, 2020 (85 FR 36719), BIS published an interim final rule, Release of ‘‘Technology’’ to Certain Entities on the Entity List in the Context of Standards Organizations (the June 18th IFR) with a request for comment, to clarify and amend the scope of license requirements imposed by the Entity List listing specific to exchanges of certain EAR-controlled technology in a standards organization environment for Huawei and its specified affiliates. The June 18th IFR removed certain license requirements imposed by the original Entity List listings by revising the Entity List to authorize certain releases of ‘‘technology’’ without a license within the context of contributing to the revision or development of a standard in a standards organization. As a result of these revisions, ‘‘technology’’ subject to the EAR and designated as EAR99 or VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 controlled on the Commerce Control List (CCL) only for anti-terrorism (AT) reasons could be released to members of a standards organization, including Huawei, without a license, if released for the purpose of contributing to the revision or development of a standard. To effectuate this change, BIS modified the Entity List entries for Huawei and its listed non-U.S. affiliates by revising the text in the Licensing Requirement column for these entries to authorize the release of certain technology to Huawei and its affiliates on the Entity List without a license if such release is made for the purpose of contributing to the revision or development of a ‘‘standard’’ in a ‘‘standards organization.’’ The June 18th IFR also added definitions of ‘‘standard’’ and ‘‘standards organization’’ to § 772.1 of the EAR (Definitions). These definitions were derived from Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A–119: Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities (81 FR 4673 (January 27, 2016)), available at https:// www.nist.gov/system/files/revised_ circular_a-119_as_of_01-22-2016.pdf. 3. Summary of Public Comments Received Regarding the June 18th IFR The public comment period for the June 18th IFR regarding the release of technology to certain entities on the Entity List in the context of standards organizations closed on August 17, 2020. In response to the request for comments on the impact of the changes promulgated in the June 18th IFR, BIS received 22 relevant comments: one by an individual, three by companies, and 18 by associations and industry organizations, including several standards organizations. All commenters were generally supportive of the changes implemented in the June 18th IFR. Several commenters acknowledged that the June 18th IFR was intended, in part, to address the confusion created by the 5G exception from the TGL and noted that the changes in the June 18th IFR went beyond the 5G exception. However, the majority of the commenters advised that the June 18th IFR did not resolve the uncertainty of U.S. industry regarding participating in standards organizations that include Entity Listed entities; limiting the scope of the standards exemption to only Huawei and its nonU.S. affiliates and not to other listed entities has created an environment of uncertainty for industry and companies. They noted that additional actions were needed to maintain and ‘‘restore the ability of U.S.-based standards PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 organizations to develop international standards and of these U.S. organizations and their U.S. members to participate fully in international standards development.’’ BIS agrees with the commenters that additional actions are needed to protect U.S. technological leadership without discouraging, and indeed supporting and promoting, the full participation of U.S. actors in international standards development efforts. The national security threat that results from ceding U.S. participation and leadership in standards development and promulgation outweighs the risks related to the limited release of certain low-level technology and software to parties on the Entity List in the context of a ‘‘standards-related activity.’’ Participation in standards-related activities is imperative in allowing the United States to continue to participate and lead in global standards settings environments. BIS is making the following revisions to ensure that export controls and associated compliance concerns as they relate to the Entity List do not impede the leadership and participation of U.S. companies in standard activities. Any impediment to U.S. influence in standards development forums is a national security threat to the United States because not only does it limit U.S. leadership in standards development, but other countries are already racing to fill this vacuum with their own leadership and standards. In many cases, this ceding of U.S. leadership not only undermines democratic values and U.S. national security and foreign policy interests, but it also contributes to a potential future global standards environment that actually works to oppose U.S. interests. B. Changes to Licensing Requirements in the Context of Specific Standards Activities After review of the public comments from the June 18th IFR, consultation with the interagency, and in consideration of the U.S. national security and foreign policy interests at stake, this final rule amends the EAR to revise the standards authorization by: (1) Clarifying the scope and application of standards activities covered by the authorization; (2) Including EAR99 and AT-only controlled ‘‘software’’ in the scope of the authorization; (3) Authorizing the release of specified ‘‘software’’ and ‘‘technology’’ when specifically for the ‘‘development,’’ ‘‘production,’’ and ‘‘use’’ of cryptographic functionality; and (4) Applying the scope of the authorization to all entities listed on the Entity List. E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations To implement these changes, this interim final rule revises parts 744 and 772 of the EAR. Note that even when a license requirement does not apply, items that are ‘‘subject to the EAR’’ are still subject to recordkeeping and other applicable EAR requirements (see, e.g., § 762.1 of the EAR). As set forth in § 744.11, the scope of the standards authorization is tied to the ‘‘release’’ of certain ‘‘technology’’ or ‘‘software’’ when such a release is for a ‘‘standards-related activity,’’ as defined in § 772.1 of the EAR, and where there is an intent for the resulting standard to be ‘‘published,’’ as defined in § 734.7 of the EAR. A ‘‘standards-related activity’’ includes activities required for the development, adoption or application of a standard, where there is an intent to publish the resulting standard. In order to qualify for the standards authorization, the following must be true: (1) The technology or software must be designated as EAR99; controlled for AT reasons only on the CCL; or specifically for the ‘‘development,’’ ‘‘production,’’ and ‘‘use’’ of cryptographic functionality; (2) The ‘‘release’’ of technology or software must be made in the context of a ‘‘standards-related activity;’’ and (3) There must be intent to ‘‘publish’’ the resulting standard. If there is no intent to publish the resulting standard, then even if the software or technology is designated EAR99, controlled for AT reasons only, or specifically for the ‘‘development,’’ ‘‘production,’’ and ‘‘use’’ of cryptographic functionality, a license would be required for the release of that technology or software to an entity on the Entity List (if required by the License requirement column for the entity on the Entity List). As described in Note 1 to the definition of ‘‘technology,’’ ‘‘technology’’ may be ‘in any tangible or intangible form, such as written or oral communication.’ Release of technology subject to the EAR outside of the ‘‘standards-related activity’’ would continue to require a license. Similarly, one-on-one (individual to individual) discussions that are not related to a ‘‘standards-related activity’’ would not be included in the scope of the authorization and a license would be required for such a release. This authorization only overcomes the license requirement imposed as a result of an entity’s listing on the Entity List. If you determine that other EAR licensing requirement apply, including any of the other end-use or end-userbased licensing requirements in part 744 VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 55243 of the EAR, you must comply with the terms of those licensing requirements 2. Changes to Part 772 Definitions of Terms 1. Changes to Part 744 Control Policy: End-User and End-Use Based This interim final rule adds a definition for ‘‘standards-related activity’’ to § 772.1 of the EAR (Definitions) and removes the definitions for ‘‘standards’’ and ‘‘standards organizations.’’ For purposes of the EAR, BIS is defining a ‘‘standards-related activity’’ to include the development, adoption or application of any standard, with the intent that the resulting standard will be ‘‘published’’ (as described in § 734.7). A standards-related activity would include an action taken for the purpose of developing, promulgating, revising, amending, reissuing, interpreting, implementing or otherwise maintaining or applying such a standard. For purposes of the EAR, a standard would be any document or other writing that provides, for common and repeated use, rules, guidelines, technical or other characteristics for products or related processes and production methods, with which compliance is not mandatory. As stated in the definition, there must be intent to publish the resulting standard. In this interim final rule, BIS is revising §§ 744.11 (License Requirements That Apply To Entities Acting Contrary To The National Security Or Foreign Policy Interests Of The United States) and 744.16 (Entity List), as well as supplement no. 4 to Part 744. The language regarding standards activities is added, as described below, to §§ 744.11 and 744.16 of the EAR. Additionally, BIS is removing the existing standards exception language from the ‘‘Licensing Requirement’’ column of the Entity List for all entries where it currently is stated and adding revised language to the introductory paragraph of supplement no. 4 to Part 744 as it now applies to all entities on the Entity List. BIS is revising paragraph (a) in § 744.11 to specify that a license would not be required for certain ‘‘software’’ or ‘‘technology,’’ when released in the context of a ‘‘standards-related activity.’’ In addition, BIS is revising paragraph (a) in § 744.16 by adding a sentence in the first paragraph to refer to the standards related authorization in § 744.11(a)(1). While three commenters suggested BIS amend § 744.16 of the EAR to state that the license requirement does not apply to standards development activity or standardsrelated activity, the same commenters also mentioned that ‘‘amending the [existing] individual Entity List entries would result in an extremely confusing structure for members of standards organizations to have to sort through to determine compliance.’’ BIS agrees that there is potential for confusion and compliance issues if all existing entries on the Entity List were modified. BIS also recognizes that many companies and individuals refer to the Consolidated Screening List when screening the parties to their transaction. The majority of existing entries on the Entity List reference § 744.11, and none reference § 744.16; therefore, to limit confusion, BIS is adding a reference to § 744.11(a)(1) in § 744.16(a). Similarly, BIS is adding a cross reference to § 744.11 in the introductory paragraph of supplement no. 4 to Part 744. Additionally, BIS is modifying the text in the Licensing Requirement column for all of the entries of Huawei and its listed non-U.S. affiliates to remove the standards language and instead reference specific sections in Parts 736 and 744.

Instructions for submission of comments, including comments that contain business confidential information, are found in the ADDRESSES section of this interim final rule. In particular, BIS seeks comments in the following areas: Industries involved in standards development: BIS is requesting comments and additional information on whether the current scope of this authorization is adequate for the United States to retain its participation and lead in other areas that are important to the United States Government and industry, such as energy, artificial intelligence (AI), biotech, aerospace, and transportation. Does the current scope of the authorization hinder U.S. participation and leadership in standards development in industries where there is or may be participation by listed entities? Interested parties should provide specific examples of industries and commercial sectors which are or would be adversely affected by the current scope of the standards authorization as stated in this final rule. Impact of other end use/end user controls: BIS is requesting comment on whether there are other provisions of the EAR that may negatively impact U.S. national security by limiting E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 55244 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations leadership and participation in standards-related activities, such as licensing requirements for other end use or end user-based controls listed in part 744 of the EAR. Commenters are asked to provide specific examples of how U.S. participation and/or leadership has (or will be) impacted by the limited application of this authorization to the license requirements in § 744.11. Compliance burden: BIS is requesting comment from interested parties on industries and commercial sectors that are actively involved in standards development, including information on how they are affected by compliance burdens resulting from the changes promulgated in this and the previous rule. International participation and scope of standards-related activities: BIS is requesting comment on whether the definition of ‘‘standards-related activities’’ promulgated in this interim final rule allows for full and open participation by U.S. companies in the development of standards. Are there aspects of the definition that should be better-defined or excluded? jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES D. Response to Comments Received Regarding the June 18th Standards Interim Final Rule The summary and response to the comments BIS received from the June 18th IFR has been separated and discussed as the following two sections: (1) Policy Considerations and (2) Requests for expansion and clarification of scope and definitions. 1. Policy Considerations As BIS acknowledged in the June 18th IFR, international standards serve as the building blocks for product development and help ensure the functionality, interoperability, and safety of products, both domestically and internationally. Many commenters stated that it is essential to U.S. technological leadership that U.S. companies are able to work with foreign companies and participate fully in standards development organizations. Many also noted that it is a national security concern when U.S. standards proposals are limited by nonparticipation of U.S. companies in standards development activities. U.S. regulations must ensure that U.S. standards proposals are given full consideration for adoption by the international standards community. One commenter noted, and BIS agrees, that ‘‘enabling U.S.-based standards organizations to lead global collaboration and dialogue ultimately benefits U.S. industry and consumers.’’ As another commenter mentioned, the VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 issue addressed in the Entity List additions is a serious one: ‘‘technology transfers to entities involved in activities that may be contrary to U.S. national security interests. However, they also noted that ‘‘by their very nature, open global standards organizations are engaged in activities that enable U.S. economic growth and do not involve technology transfers contrary to U.S. national security interests.’’ a. U.S. Government Priorities and Unilateral Action Three commenters referenced Executive Order 13859, Maintaining American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence (84 FR 3967 (Feb. 14, 2019)), the National Strategy for Secure 5G, and the Secure 5G and Beyond Act of 2020 (Pub. L. 116–129, 134 Stat. 223– 227). As one commenter stated, ‘‘Active participation in global standards forums . . . directly aligns with the stated policy objectives of the U.S. government’’ but that ‘‘[t]he goals of these policies cannot be achieved if U.S. companies are limited and constrained in their ability to participate in and lead standards development activities.’’ Another commenter stated that the restrictions imposed by regulations that limit U.S. participation in standards development activities run counter to the purpose of the U.S. policies and legislation and are at odds with the Department of Commerce’s commitment to ‘‘fully engage and advocate for U.S. technologies to become international standards.’’ BIS does not agree and notes that the U.S. Government recognizes the importance of protecting sensitive and leading-edge U.S. technology while ensuring that export controls do not unnecessarily limit U.S. participation or hinder U.S. leadership in international standards setting activities. One commenter noted that a single country imposing unilateral requirements on global standard settings organizations sets a dangerous precedent: ‘‘the U.S. does not have the power to unilaterally compel an SSO [Standards Setting Organization] to change its rules, and . . . such actions exacerbate anti-U.S. sentiments already resulting from the difficulty of some SSO members to enter the U.S. to participate in SSO meetings. Normalizing such impositions invites retaliation by other countries at worst, and ongoing disruption at best.’’ Another commenter opined that Entity List considerations should not eclipse other national initiatives and that restricting certain foreign adversaries’ access to American technology should PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 not contradict other ‘‘national imperatives, including maintaining U.S. leadership in the global development of information and communications technologies (ICT).’’ BIS acknowledges and recognizes that the U.S. Government needs to apply U.S. export controls and maintain U.S. technological leadership, particularly in light of efforts by adversarial countries to coordinate, subsidize, and promote activities in international standards bodies for the benefit of their own enterprises and their own industry leadership. For this reason, BIS works closely with the Administration and other U.S. Government agencies as well as with the private sector, through its advisory groups and public comment process, to discuss and gather feedback on its regulatory actions. b. Effects on U.S. Participation and Leadership in the Standards Arena Seventeen commenters highlighted concerns regarding reduced U.S. participation and leadership in the standards arena caused by unilateral export control limits and the resulting industry fragmentation. As one commenter stated, ‘‘limitations on standards engagement vis-a`-vis entities included on the Entity List create a very real risk of fragmentation in international standardization, increased compliance costs for industry, and reduced credibility of U.S.-based standards development organizations (SDOs) as open global standards organizations. Furthermore, such fragmentation can introduce security risks and vulnerabilities and affect both U.S. economic security and national security.’’ The same commenter also noted that it may be difficult for U.S. participants to know the company affiliation of all participants in international standards organizations: ‘‘In national body-based organizations, individuals are required to declare the country with which they are affiliated but are not required to disclose which organization employs them. In practice, some disclose their employer and some do not. Further, the disclosures are often not available to participants at the start of the meeting. This uncertainty could stifle U.S. participation in these standards organizations.’’ Another commenter noted that ‘‘Uncertainty regarding how the EAR impact standards setting is causing U.S companies to harbor reservations about participating fully in the standards development process, threatening to undermine U.S. technological leadership in multiple sectors.’’ According to several of the commenters, hesitancy to fully participate in E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations standards discussions limits the U.S. role in global standards development. Reduced U.S. participation is encouraging other countries to develop their own national proprietary standards, which may result in a global environment with many competing standards instead of one global standard. For example, one commenter stated that this fragmentation could provide countries such as China with a reason to develop separate standards and exclude U.S. technology. Another stated, ‘‘If China moves to its own indigenous benchmark, most of the current influence by American companies will be lost because Chinese OEMs and the Chinese government . . . will specify all the testing details. This will create a significant disadvantage for American OEMs when competing with Chinese OEMs in China.’’ Another specifically noted that ‘‘The unilateral controls create incentives for Chinese organizations to (i) set up barriers to full participation by non-Chinese entities in their Chinese standards and (ii) create ‘‘Chinese-first’’ standards that, because of their huge market, require other countries to adopt or modify existing standards.’’ One commenter addressed the development of 5G standards, stating that if ‘‘international companies cannot participate in the development of Wi-Fi standards and certification . . . [there] is the potential [for] development of regional or fragmented certification programs, which will fracture the market and disadvantage consumers and companies alike.’’ One commenter noted an additional issue regarding patents and intellectual property: ‘‘The creation of standards inevitably creates monopoly powers in the hands of the owners of standards essential patents. The time-honored way of avoiding the abuse of such rights is to bring together all interested owners of such rights in an effort to create standards that can be implemented under RAND licenses provided by participating member/patent owners.’’ RAND terms are ‘‘reasonable and nondiscriminatory’’ voluntary licensing commitments that SSOs often request from patent owners when sharing information that may become part of a technical standard. As the commenter further stated, ‘‘where an SSO decides to exclude [certain members], these companies are given both the opportunity and incentive to ‘‘weaponize’’ any patent claims they own that become essential under the standards of that SSO.’’ BIS recognizes that an environment of competing national standards or the exclusion of U.S. companies in international standards development is VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 not advantageous to U.S. interests. As one commenter noted, ‘‘U.S. and international business interests can best be served by facilitating rather than restricting the participation of Huawei and its affiliates in vital 5G SSOs and other important standards development organizations.’’ Therefore, in this final rule, BIS is expanding the authorization for the release, in specific standards settings, of certain ‘‘technology’’ and ‘‘software’’ that is subject to the EAR to all entities on the Entity List. BIS understands that much of standards development occurs using such ‘‘technology’’ and ‘‘software;’’ therefore, this expansion should assist U.S. companies in maintaining a leadership position in the global standards community. c. Standard Development Activities Subject to the EAR Several commenters requested additional clarity with respect to standards development activities and the interpretation of § 734.7 of the EAR (Published). One commenter stated that ‘‘discussions with representatives of listed entities in the context of legitimate standards-setting activities are not [to] be subject to the EAR as they are made in the context of an open and transparent process with the intent to publish a standard.’’ Another commenter requested confirmation that unclassified ‘‘technology’’ or ‘‘software’’ is ‘‘published’’ and thus not subject to the EAR when made available to the public without restriction. Additionally, one commenter pointed out that ‘‘the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) application of sanctions pursuant to the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List) specifically did not apply restrictions to participation in standards development activities because such interactions were public and intended to result in published standards.’’ While the application of OFAC regulations is outside the scope of this rule, the EAR currently provide that ‘‘published’’ unclassified technology or software is not subject to the EAR, and therefore does not require a license to be exported, reexported or transferred (in country), even to an entity on the Entity List, provided the technology or software is available to the public without restriction as set forth in § 734.7 of the EAR. Many instances of the release of technology or software in the standards environment would be considered published and not subject to the EAR. Excluded from the scope of § 734.7 is ‘‘technology’’ or ‘‘software’’ that is not available to the public PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 55245 without restriction, as well as certain encryption software and certain firearmrelated software or technology. Such technology or software remains subject to the EAR and requires a license for transactions involving entities on the Entity List. Therefore, BIS does not agree with the general interpretation that transfer or release of ‘‘technical data’’ within the context of international standards activities would necessarily be considered ‘‘Published’’ under § 734.7 and therefore not subject to the EAR in all circumstances. d. Public Dialogue and Outreach Commenters suggested a number of ways in which BIS could assist industry with the interpretation and application of the authorization in the context of standards organizations. Three commenters pointed to additional dialogue and engagement with the private sector. One commenter ‘‘strongly recommend(ed) extensive engagement with the private sector and with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which has statutory responsibilities for coordinating federal government standards engagement and also federal engagement with the private sector . . . in order to develop smarter and more targeted policies vis-a`-vis standards.’’ Another suggested that BIS ‘‘explore opportunities to educate the industry during the rollout of new rules pertaining to standards development’’; ‘‘develop more formal mechanisms and processes for engaging with the U.S. technology companies that are active in the standards setting community’’; and ‘‘take steps to educate the industry on its positions on interpretation of the IFR and what to expect in the future.’’ BIS appreciates these comments and will continue to identify additional ways to conduct industry and public outreach. BIS has been working with other government agencies, including NIST, on interpretations and EAR amendments specific to standards, and will continue to do so to ensure that the United States maintains a leadership position in standards development, while also preventing unauthorized foreign access to sensitive U.S. technology. Two commenters also made suggestions regarding BIS’s Technical Advisory Committees (TAC). One commenter suggested the establishment of a standards industry technical advisory committee focused on standards development and standardsdevelopment activities. The other commenter suggested modifying the charter for the Information Systems TAC (ISTAC) to enable it to gather and address specific inputs related to E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 55246 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations standards development and to recruit participants that can provide such inputs. BIS notes that the ISTAC is only one of BIS’s six existing TACs and that the information systems sector is not the only industry sector involved in standards development. The representatives on BIS’s TACs have diverse backgrounds in many different industries affected by the standards issue and are able to provide BIS with information on how their industries are involved in and impacted by standards development. Therefore, because BIS will continue to seek input from its TAC membership on this and related issues, the establishment of a standards-focused TAC is not warranted at this time. jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES 2. Requests for Expansion and Clarification of Authorization From Public Comments The remainder of the comments can be categorized into three main issues and suggested areas of expansion. BIS discusses the comments, suggestions, and as necessary, subsequent actions under three sections in the background of this rule: (A) Expand the EAR99 and AT-only authorization to all entities listed on the Entity List; (B) Expand the scope of authorization to additional ‘‘software’’ and ‘‘technology’’ that is widely available; and (C) Clarify and expand the definitions of ‘‘standards’’ and ‘‘standards organizations’’ used by BIS to more accurately reflect current industry practices and regular activities conducted by standards organizations. (A) Expand the EAR99 and AT-Only Authorization to All Entities Listed on the Entity List Almost all commenters recommended extending the authorization to share technology for the purpose of contributing to the development or revision of a standard to other entities on the Entity List. While one commenter suggested that the exemption be expanded to companies involved in artificial intelligence (AI), other commenters expressed that the standards-related authorization should apply to all entities on the Entity List. Eight commenters highlighted that, in addition to Huawei, there are other entities listed on the Entity List that are members of standards bodies or have historically participated in standards development activities, and should also be included in the authorization. As one commenter noted, ‘‘the unpublished technology that needs to be shared within standards organizations is generally not sensitive from an export control perspective [as it] is generally AT-only and EAR99 technology.’’ As another commenter stated, if the U.S. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 government has determined that ‘‘a standards-related carve-out for Huawei advances U.S. national security, foreign policy, and economic security objectives . . . then [allowing the] carve-out for all other listed entities would also advance the same objectives.’’ A third commenter noted that ‘‘Applying that same policy to standards activities that include any listed entities also will advance the U.S. government objective of ensuring U.S. technological leadership.’’ Thirteen commenters expressed concern that the uncertainty regarding licensing requirements for currently listed entities as well as future additions to the Entity List creates an increased regulatory burden on U.S. industry. As one commenter stated, allowing all ‘‘entities [on the Entity List] to participate in standards setting activities also prevents unintended consequences that could irreparably harm U.S. industry and U.S. competitiveness.’’ Six commenters pointed to the increased regulatory and compliance burden of needing to constantly screen changes to the Entity List against standards organizations’ membership lists. One commenter stated that the ‘‘current standards setting environment is plagued by uncertainty that U.S.-based standards bodies or U.S.-based participants will be unable to complete their important work when . . . a nonU.S. standards setting member [is added] to the Entity List.’’ Three other commenters highlighted that extending the authorization to all entities listed on the Entity List would level the playing field for U.S. standards participants; as one noted, ‘‘with an increasing number of non-US companies and multinational, global organizations spanning multiple continents, creating technological advances in a range of connected technologies, it is critically important that their contributions be considered for the development of standards and specifications that can be used around the world . . . By extending the exemption to [all] companies on the Entity List, BIS will be leveling the playing field for U.S. companies because single standards developed with input from participants around the world will open more markets for U.S. companies and reduce artificial market barriers in other countries . . . The rapid pace of standards development, particularly for digital technologies is completely at odds with the time that is typically required for applying for exemptions [licenses] to work with organizations that are on the Entity List, and for the applications to be adjudicated. As these PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 standards development activities routinely involve dozens of US companies, it is neither practical, nor reasonable to expect all of the participating US companies . . . to apply for such exemptions.’’ In summary, as one commenter noted, innovation and U.S. technological leadership is promoted by ‘‘clarity and simplicity regarding the Entity List and standards processes.’’ BIS agrees with the commenters that the standards-related authorization should be applied to all entities on the Entity List. The uncertainty created by not knowing whether a BIS license is required to release low level technology for legitimate standards activities has undermined U.S. participation in these activities. The basis for the authorization for low level, nonsensitive, and widely available items to Huawei is also valid for all other entities on the Entity List. Extending a standards authorization to all listed entities on the Entity List will reduce the regulatory burden for industry and mitigate unintended consequences that could harm U.S. industry leadership and competitiveness in the telecommunications and information technology sector. (B) Expand the Scope of the Authorization To Include Additional ‘‘Technology’’ and ‘‘Software’’ (1) Expand the Scope of the Authorization To Include ‘‘Software’’ Designated EAR99 or Controlled for AT Reasons Only Eleven commenters suggested that in addition to ‘‘technology,’’ ‘‘software’’ should be included in the authorization because the sharing of software is increasingly important in standards development. According to the commenters, software must be regularly released for standardized benchmarks and technology standards commonly include software code as part of the standards development process. As one commenter highlighted, ‘‘Standards bodies’ participants exchange software executables and/or source code as part of their work.’’ Commenters asserted that while some software may be publicly available and therefore not subject to the EAR, software subject to the EAR and designated EAR99 or controlled for AT reasons only that is shared in the ordinary course of standards development activities should be authorized to the same extent that ‘‘technology’’ that is designated EAR99 or controlled for AT reasons only is authorized under the EAR. Commenters concurred that including ‘‘software’’ in E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES the scope of the authorization will not harm national security. BIS agrees with commenters that the scope of the authorization should be extended to include certain ‘‘software.’’ BIS appreciates the specific examples provided in the comments that reflect the need to share software (e.g., as part of developing codecs, reference software implemented as part of the standard). One commenter noted that ‘‘software allows members to incorporate ideas from many into a design the standards body is developing so that the other members can see how the idea would work. Such software is not ‘‘production code,’’ i.e., that which is needed to produce the product. Rather, it is that which is designed to show performance aspects of a proposed standard.’’ BIS acknowledges that the release of certain software is a usual, customary, and necessary part of standards activities. In response to the public comments, BIS is revising the EAR to expand the scope of the authorization to include ‘‘software’’ subject to the EAR and designated as EAR99 or controlled for AT reasons only, or specifically for the ‘‘development,’’ ‘‘production,’’ and ‘‘use’’ of cryptographic functionality, when such ‘‘software’’ is released in the context of a ‘‘standards-related activity’’ (see 772.1 of the EAR—Definitions). (2) Expand the Scope of the Authorization to ‘‘Technology’’ and ‘‘Software’’ Beyond EAR99 and ATOnly Controlled Items BIS received fourteen comments requesting that the authorization be extended beyond EAR99 and AT-only controlled ‘‘technology’’ to include additional ‘‘technology’’ and ‘‘software.’’ One commenter suggested that technology ‘‘ranging from hardware and chips to software and source code [should be added] to the exemption for standards processes.’’ Another commenter mentioned that ‘‘the EAR should not interfere with U.S. leadership in standards organizations, except with respect to truly sensitive military and dual-use technologies that are controlled for release to foreign person[s] generally.’’ Six commenters noted that some standards activities related to encryption, so the authorization should be expanded to include information security software and technology classified under ECCNs 5D002 and 5E002. One commenter also noted that, ‘‘(i)nformation security is a critical element of 5G technology. 5G poses an elevated security threat . . . Information security must be incorporated from the outset into 5G standards, in order to ensure that the expected benefits of 5G networks can be VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 achieved and the attendant risks minimized. Adding information security technology classified under ECCN 5E002 and related software classified under ECCN 5D002 to the list of technologies that may be shared in the context of standards organizations is the bare minimum required in order to permit standards organizations to address the elevated threat presented by 5G networks.’’ BIS recognizes that neither an environment of competing national standards nor the exclusion of U.S. companies in international standards development is advantageous to U.S. interests. In the case of software and technology that is designated EAR99, controlled for AT reasons only, BIS is allowing the release, without a license, of software and technology that is already widely available on the global market. In addition, BIS agrees with commenters that information security is an important part of standards work, including in the development of 5G standards. BIS is allowing for the release in standards environments of software and technology specifically for the ‘‘development,’’ ‘‘production,’’ and ‘‘use’’ of cryptographic functionality; without proper standardization in encryption functionality, vulnerabilities and issues in 5G security will pose a national security threat to the United States. Therefore, in this final rule, BIS is revising the authorization for the release, in ‘‘standards related activities,’’ to include specific ‘‘technology’’ and ‘‘software’’ that is widely available and is subject to the EAR, to all entities on the Entity List. The authorization is revised to include software that is designated EAR99, software that is controlled for AT reasons only, and software that is classified only in ECCN subparagraphs 5D002.b and 5D002.c.1 (only for equipment specified in ECCNs 5A002.a and 5A002.c). The authorization continues to include the release of technology that is designated EAR99, or controlled for AT reasons only, and is revised to include technology classified under ECCN 5E002, only for equipment specified in ECCN subparagraphs 5A002.a, .b and .c, and technology classified under ECCN 5E002 for software controlled under ECCN 5D002.b and .c.1, (only for equipment specified in ECCN subparagraphs 5A002.a and .c) when the release is for a ‘‘standards-related activity’’ and specifically for the ‘‘development,’’ ‘‘production,’’ and ‘‘use’’ of cryptographic functionality. These specific ECCN subparagraphs that are included in the expanded authorization allow the release of PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 55247 software and technology for functionality but not for other types of information security functions that remain controlled in Category 5 Part 2 of the CCL. Included in the expanded authorization are software and technology that encrypts and decrypts data that is regularly used in the development and production of many commonplace products that use cryptography (e.g., smart phones, printers/scanners; toys; etc.). The specific software and technology authorized include only cryptographic functions needed to assist the development of security in a 5G network, not to develop 5G products or capacity. No other cryptanalytic items or products that use cryptographic techniques are included in the authorization. BIS understands that much standards development occurs using this widely available ‘‘software’’ and ‘‘technology’’ covered by the expanded authorization and this should assist U.S. companies in maintaining a leadership position in the global standards community. (C) Clarify and Expand the Definitions of ‘‘Standards’’ and ‘‘Standards Organizations’’ Used by BIS To Reflect Current Industry Practices Eighteen commenters requested additional clarification or expansion of the ‘‘standards’’ and ‘‘standards organizations’’ definitions added to the EAR in the June 18th IFR. The general consensus of the comments was that the ‘‘standards’’ and ‘‘standards organizations’’ definitions derived from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A–119 were not the appropriate definitions for this context and created uncertainty and questions regarding which U.S. companies and organizations in the standards setting community are subject to the licensing requirements. As one commenter stated, OMB Circular A–119 ‘‘emphasizes the role of the U.S. government in the development and use of standards’’ while the exception from the license requirement in the June 18th IFR is ‘‘intended to reduce barriers for U.S. companies in their participation and leadership in the development of standards.’’ (1) Comments Regarding ‘‘Standards’’ BIS received thirteen comments regarding the OMB Circular A–119 definition of ‘‘standards.’’ Eight commenters requested additional clarification or confirmation regarding the ‘‘standards’’ definition while six commenters suggested revisions and expansions to the definition. E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 55248 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations (a) Clarification and Confirmation of Definition A number of commenters requested confirmation from BIS that certification and conformance activities were included in the definition of ‘‘standards.’’ One commenter noted that the OMB Circular mentions that: ‘‘Certification programs are conformity assessment activities . . . The definition of ‘conformity assessment’ in the OMB Circular states that certification, as well as the accreditations of the competence of these activities, is included . . . [In addition], OMB Circular A–119 recognizes that conformity assessment activities are part of, and integral to, much of standards development . . . Finally, federal law explicitly recognizes standards development activities to include conformity assessment activities. The National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993 uses the same definition of a ‘voluntary consensus standard’ used in OMB Circular A–119 and further defines a ‘standards development activity.’ ’’ Another commenter requested confirmation that ‘‘the scope of standards development activities permitted by the Final Rule includes any action taken by an SDO for the purpose of developing, promulgating, revising, reissuing, interpreting, or otherwise maintaining a voluntary consensus standard, including standard conformity testing and assessment activities.’’ jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES (b) Revision and Expansion of Definition One commenter requested that ‘‘standardized benchmarks’’ be included as part of the standards definition and defined as ‘‘measurement software developed by an organization of relevant industry companies to evaluate the performance or energy consumption of a computing system. Without such an amendment, American companies will be excluded from the development of standardized benchmarks which are critical for selling computers.’’ Several commenters referenced the Standards Development Organization Advancement Act of 2004 (SDOAA) (15 U.S.C. 4301–4306) and suggested the addition of and adherence to its ‘‘standards development activity’’ definition, which is commonly accepted by industry and extends beyond production to include post-production activities. One commenter stated that the ‘‘EAR defines ‘‘development’’ to include all stages prior to an item’s being in ‘‘production,’’ e.g., no longer being modified. However, ‘‘standards VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 development activities’’ are clearly defined in U.S. standards law (the SDOAA) as including activities [in] all stages of a standard’s promulgation, such as its maintenance and conformity assessment.’’ A separate comment noted that even applying a restrictive (but definitive) EAR definition of ‘‘development’’ to the standards carveout would resolve uncertainty about whether ordinary promulgation and standards related activities are within the scope of the authorization. Several commenters suggested that BIS define ‘‘standards-related activities’’ by referencing the existing definition from the Trade Agreements Act (TAA) of 1979 (19 U.S.C. 2501–2582). Several commenters also requested guidance on whether ‘‘standards’’ include important ancillary aspects of a standard, such as reference implementations, interoperability testing, conformance testing results, and other related technology development that helps to foster adoption, implementation, and improvement of the underlying standard. The commenters suggested that if these actions are not considered ‘‘standards’’ under the June 18th definition, the definition should be ‘‘broadened to apply to encompass these activities of standards bodies that facilitate widespread adoption of technical standards.’’ The comments also emphasized that allowing the full set of activities undertaken by a standards-setting body would enable U.S. companies to lead throughout the lifecycle of standards development. (2) Comments Regarding ‘‘Standards Organization’’ BIS received twelve comments regarding the OMB Circular A–119 definition of ‘‘Standards Organization.’’ As one commenter noted, ‘‘uncertainty regarding whether a standards organization meets the characteristics of a ‘‘standards organization’’ as defined [by Circular A–119] could cause U.S. companies to limit, withdraw, or delay their involvement in standards organizations . . . Participation rates in standards development is a key factor in the success and adoption of those standards.’’ Seven comments requested additional clarification or confirmation regarding BIS’s ‘‘standards organization’’ definition while five comments included suggested revisions and expansions to the definition. A number of comments requested clarity or confirmation regarding what types of organizations met the equivalent ‘‘voluntary consensus standards body’’ (VCSB) definition as defined by OMB Circular A–119. One commenter requested clarification as to PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 whether the June 18th IFR applies only to international voluntary consensus standards bodies or ‘‘if it also applies to national standard setting organizations. OMB Circular No. A–119, which the rule refers to, notes that standard setting organizations are both domestic and international, although the language of the rule seems to contemplate the rule applying to international standard setting.’’ Four commenters requested that BIS confirm that consortia or alliances are considered ‘‘standards organizations’’ for the purposes of the June 18th IFR. Two commenters requested confirmation that entities that develop certification programs would also be considered VCSBs. One commenter requested further clarification on SSO’s and whether U.S. persons are permitted to work with Huawei and its affiliates in standards development activities or not. A number of commenters suggested revisions to BIS’s definition of ‘‘standards organizations.’’ Several commenters opined that OMB Circular No. A–119 and the definition of VCSBs is not a suitable definition for purposes of the EAR. One commenter recommended amending the definition to remove the ‘‘appeals process’’ required by OMB Circular No. A–119. Another commenter suggested that paid membership model organizations not be excluded from the scope of the VSCB definition. One commenter suggested that BIS should state that ‘‘U.S. companies may safely participate in any SSO formed with the intention of creating global standards and which admits all interested parties as members on a non-discriminatory basis. Failing that, providing an SSO-specific exception referencing only the Openness and Consensus elements of the VCSB definition, tailored to ICT SSO realities, would provide a next-best solution.’’ The same commenter endorsed the use of ‘‘industry-accepted objective criteria, such as the ISO/IEC JTC–1 PAS Submitter process as well as other industry-established criteria or processes that would recognize legitimate standards organizations as qualifying as ‘‘standards organizations’’.’’ (3) Removal of Definitions for ‘‘Standards’’ and ‘‘Standards Organization;’’ Addition of Definition for ‘‘Standards-Related Activity’’ BIS appreciates the insight and suggestions provided in the public comments to the June 18th IFR regarding the definitions, as well as the explanations of the issues that companies face on a practical level with regard to standards and information E:\FR\FM\09SER1.SGM 09SER1 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 174 / Friday, September 9, 2022 / Rules and Regulations jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with RULES sharing in the context of standards organizations. BIS understands and acknowledges that the ‘‘standards’’ and ‘‘standards organizations’’ terms, as defined by the OMB Circular No. A– 119, do not adequately address the breadth of activities and issues that companies run into while participating in standards organizations. Therefore, based on this input derived from public comments and interagency discussions, this final rule removes the definitions of ‘‘standards’’ and ‘‘standards organization’’ from the EAR. BIS considered the definitions found in the TAA and SDOAA and incorporated the relevant and applicable elements of the definitions into a ‘‘standards-related activity’’ definition. BIS is adding this term to § 772.1 of the EAR (Definitions). The scope of the standards authorization now reflects activities as defined and in the context of a ‘‘standards-related activity.’’ Use of the ‘‘standards-related activity’’ definition appropriately focuses export controls on activities that are important to United States technological leadership rather than the type of organization that performs them. Standards activities must not be constrained by defining the organization or product of the deliberations in such a way that full participation in the intended activities cannot be achieved. Export Control Reform Act of 2018 On August 13, 2018, the President 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). ECRA provides the legal basis for BIS’s principal authorities and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this rule. As set forth in Section 1768 of ECRA, all delegations, rules, regulations, orders, determinations, licenses, or other forms of administrative action that were made, issued, conducted, or allowed to become effective under the Export Administration Act of 1979 (previously, 50 U.S.C. 4601 et seq.) (as in effect prior to August 13, 2018 and as continued in effect pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.)) or the Export Administration Regulations, and were in effect as of August 13, 2018, shall continue in effect according to their terms until modified, superseded, set aside, or revoked under the authority of ECRA. Rulemaking Requirements 1. Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all costs and VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:26 Sep 08, 2022 Jkt 256001 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 interim final rule has been designated as significant for purposes of Executive Order 12866. 2. 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 interim final rule involves the collection currently approved by OMB under the BIS control number: Simplified Network Application Processing System (control number 0694–0088), which includes, among other things, license applications. The information collection under control number 0694–0088, carries a burden estimate of 29.4 minutes for a manual or electronic submission for a total burden estimate of 31,835 hours. Total burden hours associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694–0088 are not expected to increase as a result of this rule. 3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications as that term is defined in Executive Order 13132. 4. Pursuant to section 1762 of ECRA, this action is exempt from the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requirements, including prior notice and the opportunity for public comment. 5. 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.

Authorization of Certain ``Items'' to Entities on the Entity List 
in the Context of Specific Standards Activities

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Interim final rule with request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: In this interim final rule, the Bureau of Industry and 
Security (BIS) amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to 
authorize the release of specified items subject to the EAR without a 
license when that release occurs in the context of a ``standards-
related activity,'' as defined in this rule. BIS is revising the terms 
used in the EAR to describe the actions permissible under the 
authorization rather than defining the organizations to which it 
applies. The scope of the authorization is revised to include certain 
``technology'' as well as ``software'' and applies to all entities 
listed on BIS's Entity List. The uncertainty of not knowing whether 
other entities listed on the Entity List are participants in standards 
organizations and whether a BIS license is required to release low-
level technology for legitimate standards activities has caused U.S. 
companies to limit their participation in standards-related activities 
in areas that are critical to U.S. national security. This 
authorization only overcomes licensing requirements imposed as a result 
of an entity's inclusion on the Entity List; other EAR licensing 
requirements, including additional end-use or end-user based licensing 
requirements may continue to apply. This final rule does not change the 
assessment of whether ``technology'' or ``software'' is subject to the 
EAR. BIS is making these revisions to ensure that export controls and 
associated compliance concerns as they relate to the Entity List do not 
impede the leadership and participation of U.S. companies in national 
and international standards-related activities

DATES: 
    Effective date: This rule is effective September 9, 2022.
    Comment date: Comments must be received by BIS no later than 
November 8, 2022.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by docket number BIS-
2020-0017 or RIN 0694-AI06, through the Federal eRulemaking Portal: 
https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting 
comments. You can find this interim final rule by searching for its 
regulations.gov docket number, which is BIS-2020-0017.
    All filers using the portal should use the name of the person or 
entity submitting comments as the name of their files, in accordance 
with the instructions below. Anyone submitting business confidential 
information should clearly identify the business confidential portion 
at the time of submission, file a statement justifying nondisclosure 
and referring to the specific legal authority claimed, and also provide 
a non-confidential version of the submission.
    For comments submitted electronically containing business 
confidential information, the file name of the business confidential 
version should begin with the characters ``BC.'' Any page containing 
business confidential information must be clearly marked ``BUSINESS 
CONFIDENTIAL'' on the top of that page. The corresponding non-
confidential version of those comments must be clearly marked 
``PUBLIC.'' The file name of the non-confidential version should begin 
with the character ``P.'' The ``BC'' and ``P'' should be followed by 
the name of the person or entity submitting the comments. Any 
submissions with file names that do not begin with a ``BC'' or ``P'' 
will be assumed to be public and will be made publicly available 
through https://www.regulations.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Background

1. Entity List Actions and the Temporary General License

    Effective May 16, 2019, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) 
added Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (Huawei) and sixty-eight of its 
non-U.S. affiliates to the Entity List (see 84 FR 22961 (May 21, 
2019)). The Entity List (supplement no. 4 to part 744 of the Export 
Administration Regulations (EAR) (15 CFR parts 730-774)) identifies 
entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe, based on 
specific and articulable facts, that the entities have been involved, 
are involved, or 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 EAR impose additional license 
requirements on, and limit the availability of most license exceptions 
for, exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to entities on the 
Entity List. The license review policy for each listed entity is 
identified in the ``License review policy'' column on the Entity List, 
and the availability of license exceptions is described in the relevant 
Federal Register notice adding the entity 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 addition of Huawei and its non-U.S. affiliates to the Entity 
List imposed a licensing requirement under the EAR regarding the 
export, reexport, and transfer (in-country) of most items subject to 
the EAR to the listed Huawei entities. On May 22, 2019 (84 FR 23468), 
BIS published a Temporary General License (TGL) which temporarily 
authorized engagement in certain transactions of items subject to the 
EAR with Huawei and its listed non-U.S. affiliates, including (but not 
limited to) engagement as necessary for development of 5G standards by 
a duly recognized standards body. Effective August 19, 2019 (84 FR 
43493 (August 21, 2019)), an additional 46 non-U.S. affiliates of 
Huawei were placed on the Entity List with the same licensing 
requirements and TGL eligibility as Huawei and the initial sixty-eight 
non-

[[Page 55242]]

U.S. affiliates. The TGL was also extended and amended (see 84 FR 43487 
(August 21, 2019)) to remove the provision addressing engagement as 
necessary for development of 5G standards by a duly recognized 
standards body, on the basis of the BIS determination that existing 
provisions of the EAR sufficed for such engagement. In parallel with 
the publication of the August 21, 2019 rule, BIS posted a General 
Advisory Opinion on the BIS website, later rescinded and removed, that 
addressed the applicability of Sec.  734.7 of the EAR (Published) (15 
CFR 734.7) to certain types of releases to Huawei and its listed 
affiliates. TGL eligibility was subsequently continued through a series 
of extensions (see 84 FR 64018 (November 20, 2019), 85 FR 8722 
(February 18, 2020), 85 FR 14416 (March 12, 2020) and 85 FR 29610 (May 
18, 2020)). BIS allowed the TGL to expire on August 13, 2020, at which 
point the TGL was replaced with a more limited authorization to better 
protect U.S. national security and foreign policy interests, as 
implemented in a final rule effective August 17, 2020 (85 FR 51596, 
(August 20, 2020)). The August 17, 2020 rule also added thirty-eight 
additional non-U.S. affiliates of Huawei to the Entity List and revised 
General Prohibition Three (found in part 736 of the EAR).

2. Authorization for Release of Technology in the Context of Standards 
Organizations in the June 18, 2020 IFR

    In response to the addition of Huawei and its non-U.S. affiliates 
to the Entity List, and the related amendments, BIS received questions 
regarding the applicability of the EAR in the context of standards 
setting or development. On June 18, 2020 (85 FR 36719), BIS published 
an interim final rule, Release of ``Technology'' to Certain Entities on 
the Entity List in the Context of Standards Organizations (the June 
18th IFR) with a request for comment, to clarify and amend the scope of 
license requirements imposed by the Entity List listing specific to 
exchanges of certain EAR-controlled technology in a standards 
organization environment for Huawei and its specified affiliates.
    The June 18th IFR removed certain license requirements imposed by 
the original Entity List listings by revising the Entity List to 
authorize certain releases of ``technology'' without a license within 
the context of contributing to the revision or development of a 
standard in a standards organization. As a result of these revisions, 
``technology'' subject to the EAR and designated as EAR99 or controlled 
on the Commerce Control List (CCL) only for anti-terrorism (AT) reasons 
could be released to members of a standards organization, including 
Huawei, without a license, if released for the purpose of contributing 
to the revision or development of a standard. To effectuate this 
change, BIS modified the Entity List entries for Huawei and its listed 
non-U.S. affiliates by revising the text in the Licensing Requirement 
column for these entries to authorize the release of certain technology 
to Huawei and its affiliates on the Entity List without a license if 
such release is made for the purpose of contributing to the revision or 
development of a ``standard'' in a ``standards organization.'' The June 
18th IFR also added definitions of ``standard'' and ``standards 
organization'' to Sec.  772.1 of the EAR (Definitions). These 
definitions were derived from Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
Circular A-119: Federal Participation in the Development and Use of 
Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities 
(81 FR 4673 (January 27, 2016)), available at https://www.nist.gov/system/files/revised_circular_a-119_as_of_01-22-2016.pdf.

3. Summary of Public Comments Received Regarding the June 18th IFR

    The public comment period for the June 18th IFR regarding the 
release of technology to certain entities on the Entity List in the 
context of standards organizations closed on August 17, 2020. In 
response to the request for comments on the impact of the changes 
promulgated in the June 18th IFR, BIS received 22 relevant comments: 
one by an individual, three by companies, and 18 by associations and 
industry organizations, including several standards organizations. All 
commenters were generally supportive of the changes implemented in the 
June 18th IFR. Several commenters acknowledged that the June 18th IFR 
was intended, in part, to address the confusion created by the 5G 
exception from the TGL and noted that the changes in the June 18th IFR 
went beyond the 5G exception. However, the majority of the commenters 
advised that the June 18th IFR did not resolve the uncertainty of U.S. 
industry regarding participating in standards organizations that 
include Entity Listed entities; limiting the scope of the standards 
exemption to only Huawei and its non-U.S. affiliates and not to other 
listed entities has created an environment of uncertainty for industry 
and companies. They noted that additional actions were needed to 
maintain and ``restore the ability of U.S.-based standards 
organizations to develop international standards and of these U.S. 
organizations and their U.S. members to participate fully in 
international standards development.''
    BIS agrees with the commenters that additional actions are needed 
to protect U.S. technological leadership without discouraging, and 
indeed supporting and promoting, the full participation of U.S. actors 
in international standards development efforts. The national security 
threat that results from ceding U.S. participation and leadership in 
standards development and promulgation outweighs the risks related to 
the limited release of certain low-level technology and software to 
parties on the Entity List in the context of a ``standards-related 
activity.'' Participation in standards-related activities is imperative 
in allowing the United States to continue to participate and lead in 
global standards settings environments. BIS is making the following 
revisions to ensure that export controls and associated compliance 
concerns as they relate to the Entity List do not impede the leadership 
and participation of U.S. companies in standard activities. Any 
impediment to U.S. influence in standards development forums is a 
national security threat to the United States because not only does it 
limit U.S. leadership in standards development, but other countries are 
already racing to fill this vacuum with their own leadership and 
standards. In many cases, this ceding of U.S. leadership not only 
undermines democratic values and U.S. national security and foreign 
policy interests, but it also contributes to a potential future global 
standards environment that actually works to oppose U.S. interests.

B. Changes to Licensing Requirements in the Context of Specific 
Standards Activities

    After review of the public comments from the June 18th IFR, 
consultation with the interagency, and in consideration of the U.S. 
national security and foreign policy interests at stake, this final 
rule amends the EAR to revise the standards authorization by:

    (1) Clarifying the scope and application of standards activities 
covered by the authorization;
    (2) Including EAR99 and AT-only controlled ``software'' in the 
scope of the authorization;
    (3) Authorizing the release of specified ``software'' and 
``technology'' when specifically for the ``development,'' 
``production,'' and ``use'' of cryptographic functionality; and
    (4) Applying the scope of the authorization to all entities 
listed on the Entity List.


[[Page 55243]]


To implement these changes, this interim final rule revises parts 744 
and 772 of the EAR. Note that even when a license requirement does not 
apply, items that are ``subject to the EAR'' are still subject to 
recordkeeping and other applicable EAR requirements (see, e.g., Sec.  
762.1 of the EAR).
    As set forth in Sec.  744.11, the scope of the standards 
authorization is tied to the ``release'' of certain ``technology'' or 
``software'' when such a release is for a ``standards-related 
activity,'' as defined in Sec.  772.1 of the EAR, and where there is an 
intent for the resulting standard to be ``published,'' as defined in 
Sec.  734.7 of the EAR. A ``standards-related activity'' includes 
activities required for the development, adoption or application of a 
standard, where there is an intent to publish the resulting standard. 
In order to qualify for the standards authorization, the following must 
be true:
    (1) The technology or software must be designated as EAR99; 
controlled for AT reasons only on the CCL; or specifically for the 
``development,'' ``production,'' and ``use'' of cryptographic 
functionality;
    (2) The ``release'' of technology or software must be made in the 
context of a ``standards-related activity;'' and
    (3) There must be intent to ``publish'' the resulting standard.

If there is no intent to publish the resulting standard, then even if 
the software or technology is designated EAR99, controlled for AT 
reasons only, or specifically for the ``development,'' ``production,'' 
and ``use'' of cryptographic functionality, a license would be required 
for the release of that technology or software to an entity on the 
Entity List (if required by the License requirement column for the 
entity on the Entity List).
    As described in Note 1 to the definition of ``technology,'' 
``technology'' may be `in any tangible or intangible form, such as 
written or oral communication.' Release of technology subject to the 
EAR outside of the ``standards-related activity'' would continue to 
require a license. Similarly, one-on-one (individual to individual) 
discussions that are not related to a ``standards-related activity'' 
would not be included in the scope of the authorization and a license 
would be required for such a release.
    This authorization only overcomes the license requirement imposed 
as a result of an entity's listing on the Entity List. If you determine 
that other EAR licensing requirement apply, including any of the other 
end-use or end-user-based licensing requirements in part 744 of the 
EAR, you must comply with the terms of those licensing requirements

1. Changes to Part 744 Control Policy: End-User and End-Use Based

    In this interim final rule, BIS is revising Sec. Sec.  744.11 
(License Requirements That Apply To Entities Acting Contrary To The 
National Security Or Foreign Policy Interests Of The United States) and 
744.16 (Entity List), as well as supplement no. 4 to Part 744. The 
language regarding standards activities is added, as described below, 
to Sec. Sec.  744.11 and 744.16 of the EAR. Additionally, BIS is 
removing the existing standards exception language from the ``Licensing 
Requirement'' column of the Entity List for all entries where it 
currently is stated and adding revised language to the introductory 
paragraph of supplement no. 4 to Part 744 as it now applies to all 
entities on the Entity List.
    BIS is revising paragraph (a) in Sec.  744.11 to specify that a 
license would not be required for certain ``software'' or 
``technology,'' when released in the context of a ``standards-related 
activity.''
    In addition, BIS is revising paragraph (a) in Sec.  744.16 by 
adding a sentence in the first paragraph to refer to the standards 
related authorization in Sec.  744.11(a)(1). While three commenters 
suggested BIS amend Sec.  744.16 of the EAR to state that the license 
requirement does not apply to standards development activity or 
standards-related activity, the same commenters also mentioned that 
``amending the [existing] individual Entity List entries would result 
in an extremely confusing structure for members of standards 
organizations to have to sort through to determine compliance.'' BIS 
agrees that there is potential for confusion and compliance issues if 
all existing entries on the Entity List were modified. BIS also 
recognizes that many companies and individuals refer to the 
Consolidated Screening List when screening the parties to their 
transaction. The majority of existing entries on the Entity List 
reference Sec.  744.11, and none reference Sec.  744.16; therefore, to 
limit confusion, BIS is adding a reference to Sec.  744.11(a)(1) in 
Sec.  744.16(a).
    Similarly, BIS is adding a cross reference to Sec.  744.11 in the 
introductory paragraph of supplement no. 4 to Part 744. Additionally, 
BIS is modifying the text in the Licensing Requirement column for all 
of the entries of Huawei and its listed non-U.S. affiliates to remove 
the standards language and instead reference specific sections in Parts 
736 and 744.

2. Changes to Part 772 Definitions of Terms

    This interim final rule adds a definition for ``standards-related 
activity'' to Sec.  772.1 of the EAR (Definitions) and removes the 
definitions for ``standards'' and ``standards organizations.''
    For purposes of the EAR, BIS is defining a ``standards-related 
activity'' to include the development, adoption or application of any 
standard, with the intent that the resulting standard will be 
``published'' (as described in Sec.  734.7). A standards-related 
activity would include an action taken for the purpose of developing, 
promulgating, revising, amending, reissuing, interpreting, implementing 
or otherwise maintaining or applying such a standard. For purposes of 
the EAR, a standard would be any document or other writing that 
provides, for common and repeated use, rules, guidelines, technical or 
other characteristics for products or related processes and production 
methods, with which compliance is not mandatory. As stated in the 
definition, there must be intent to publish the resulting standard.

C. Request for Additional Public Comments for This Interim Final Rule

    BIS is requesting comment on the revisions promulgated in this 
interim final rule. Instructions for submission of comments, including 
comments that contain business confidential information, are found in 
the ADDRESSES section of this interim final rule. In particular, BIS 
seeks comments in the following areas:
    Industries involved in standards development: BIS is requesting 
comments and additional information on whether the current scope of 
this authorization is adequate for the United States to retain its 
participation and lead in other areas that are important to the United 
States Government and industry, such as energy, artificial intelligence 
(AI), biotech, aerospace, and transportation. Does the current scope of 
the authorization hinder U.S. participation and leadership in standards 
development in industries where there is or may be participation by 
listed entities? Interested parties should provide specific examples of 
industries and commercial sectors which are or would be adversely 
affected by the current scope of the standards authorization as stated 
in this final rule.
    Impact of other end use/end user controls: BIS is requesting 
comment on whether there are other provisions of the EAR that may 
negatively impact U.S. national security by limiting

[[Page 55244]]

leadership and participation in standards-related activities, such as 
licensing requirements for other end use or end user-based controls 
listed in part 744 of the EAR. Commenters are asked to provide specific 
examples of how U.S. participation and/or leadership has (or will be) 
impacted by the limited application of this authorization to the 
license requirements in Sec.  744.11.
    Compliance burden: BIS is requesting comment from interested 
parties on industries and commercial sectors that are actively involved 
in standards development, including information on how they are 
affected by compliance burdens resulting from the changes promulgated 
in this and the previous rule.
    International participation and scope of standards-related 
activities: BIS is requesting comment on whether the definition of 
``standards-related activities'' promulgated in this interim final rule 
allows for full and open participation by U.S. companies in the 
development of standards. Are there aspects of the definition that 
should be better-defined or excluded?

D. Response to Comments Received Regarding the June 18th Standards 
Interim Final Rule

    The summary and response to the comments BIS received from the June 
18th IFR has been separated and discussed as the following two 
sections: (1) Policy Considerations and (2) Requests for expansion and 
clarification of scope and definitions.

1. Policy Considerations

    As BIS acknowledged in the June 18th IFR, international standards 
serve as the building blocks for product development and help ensure 
the functionality, interoperability, and safety of products, both 
domestically and internationally. Many commenters stated that it is 
essential to U.S. technological leadership that U.S. companies are able 
to work with foreign companies and participate fully in standards 
development organizations. Many also noted that it is a national 
security concern when U.S. standards proposals are limited by non-
participation of U.S. companies in standards development activities. 
U.S. regulations must ensure that U.S. standards proposals are given 
full consideration for adoption by the international standards 
community.
    One commenter noted, and BIS agrees, that ``enabling U.S.-based 
standards organizations to lead global collaboration and dialogue 
ultimately benefits U.S. industry and consumers.'' As another commenter 
mentioned, the issue addressed in the Entity List additions is a 
serious one: ``technology transfers to entities involved in activities 
that may be contrary to U.S. national security interests. However, they 
also noted that ``by their very nature, open global standards 
organizations are engaged in activities that enable U.S. economic 
growth and do not involve technology transfers contrary to U.S. 
national security interests.''
a. U.S. Government Priorities and Unilateral Action
    Three commenters referenced Executive Order 13859, Maintaining 
American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence (84 FR 3967 (Feb. 14, 
2019)), the National Strategy for Secure 5G, and the Secure 5G and 
Beyond Act of 2020 (Pub. L. 116-129, 134 Stat. 223-227). As one 
commenter stated, ``Active participation in global standards forums . . 
. directly aligns with the stated policy objectives of the U.S. 
government'' but that ``[t]he goals of these policies cannot be 
achieved if U.S. companies are limited and constrained in their ability 
to participate in and lead standards development activities.'' Another 
commenter stated that the restrictions imposed by regulations that 
limit U.S. participation in standards development activities run 
counter to the purpose of the U.S. policies and legislation and are at 
odds with the Department of Commerce's commitment to ``fully engage and 
advocate for U.S. technologies to become international standards.'' BIS 
does not agree and notes that the U.S. Government recognizes the 
importance of protecting sensitive and leading-edge U.S. technology 
while ensuring that export controls do not unnecessarily limit U.S. 
participation or hinder U.S. leadership in international standards 
setting activities.
    One commenter noted that a single country imposing unilateral 
requirements on global standard settings organizations sets a dangerous 
precedent: ``the U.S. does not have the power to unilaterally compel an 
SSO [Standards Setting Organization] to change its rules, and . . . 
such actions exacerbate anti-U.S. sentiments already resulting from the 
difficulty of some SSO members to enter the U.S. to participate in SSO 
meetings. Normalizing such impositions invites retaliation by other 
countries at worst, and ongoing disruption at best.'' Another commenter 
opined that Entity List considerations should not eclipse other 
national initiatives and that restricting certain foreign adversaries' 
access to American technology should not contradict other ``national 
imperatives, including maintaining U.S. leadership in the global 
development of information and communications technologies (ICT).'' BIS 
acknowledges and recognizes that the U.S. Government needs to apply 
U.S. export controls and maintain U.S. technological leadership, 
particularly in light of efforts by adversarial countries to 
coordinate, subsidize, and promote activities in international 
standards bodies for the benefit of their own enterprises and their own 
industry leadership. For this reason, BIS works closely with the 
Administration and other U.S. Government agencies as well as with the 
private sector, through its advisory groups and public comment process, 
to discuss and gather feedback on its regulatory actions.
b. Effects on U.S. Participation and Leadership in the Standards Arena
    Seventeen commenters highlighted concerns regarding reduced U.S. 
participation and leadership in the standards arena caused by 
unilateral export control limits and the resulting industry 
fragmentation. As one commenter stated, ``limitations on standards 
engagement vis-[agrave]-vis entities included on the Entity List create 
a very real risk of fragmentation in international standardization, 
increased compliance costs for industry, and reduced credibility of 
U.S.-based standards development organizations (SDOs) as open global 
standards organizations. Furthermore, such fragmentation can introduce 
security risks and vulnerabilities and affect both U.S. economic 
security and national security.'' The same commenter also noted that it 
may be difficult for U.S. participants to know the company affiliation 
of all participants in international standards organizations: ``In 
national body-based organizations, individuals are required to declare 
the country with which they are affiliated but are not required to 
disclose which organization employs them. In practice, some disclose 
their employer and some do not. Further, the disclosures are often not 
available to participants at the start of the meeting. This uncertainty 
could stifle U.S. participation in these standards organizations.'' 
Another commenter noted that ``Uncertainty regarding how the EAR impact 
standards setting is causing U.S companies to harbor reservations about 
participating fully in the standards development process, threatening 
to undermine U.S. technological leadership in multiple sectors.'' 
According to several of the commenters, hesitancy to fully participate 
in

[[Page 55245]]

standards discussions limits the U.S. role in global standards 
development. Reduced U.S. participation is encouraging other countries 
to develop their own national proprietary standards, which may result 
in a global environment with many competing standards instead of one 
global standard. For example, one commenter stated that this 
fragmentation could provide countries such as China with a reason to 
develop separate standards and exclude U.S. technology. Another stated, 
``If China moves to its own indigenous benchmark, most of the current 
influence by American companies will be lost because Chinese OEMs and 
the Chinese government . . . will specify all the testing details. This 
will create a significant disadvantage for American OEMs when competing 
with Chinese OEMs in China.'' Another specifically noted that ``The 
unilateral controls create incentives for Chinese organizations to (i) 
set up barriers to full participation by non-Chinese entities in their 
Chinese standards and (ii) create ``Chinese-first'' standards that, 
because of their huge market, require other countries to adopt or 
modify existing standards.'' One commenter addressed the development of 
5G standards, stating that if ``international companies cannot 
participate in the development of Wi-Fi standards and certification . . 
. [there] is the potential [for] development of regional or fragmented 
certification programs, which will fracture the market and disadvantage 
consumers and companies alike.''
    One commenter noted an additional issue regarding patents and 
intellectual property: ``The creation of standards inevitably creates 
monopoly powers in the hands of the owners of standards essential 
patents. The time-honored way of avoiding the abuse of such rights is 
to bring together all interested owners of such rights in an effort to 
create standards that can be implemented under RAND licenses provided 
by participating member/patent owners.'' RAND terms are ``reasonable 
and non-discriminatory'' voluntary licensing commitments that SSOs 
often request from patent owners when sharing information that may 
become part of a technical standard. As the commenter further stated, 
``where an SSO decides to exclude [certain members], these companies 
are given both the opportunity and incentive to ``weaponize'' any 
patent claims they own that become essential under the standards of 
that SSO.''
    BIS recognizes that an environment of competing national standards 
or the exclusion of U.S. companies in international standards 
development is not advantageous to U.S. interests. As one commenter 
noted, ``U.S. and international business interests can best be served 
by facilitating rather than restricting the participation of Huawei and 
its affiliates in vital 5G SSOs and other important standards 
development organizations.'' Therefore, in this final rule, BIS is 
expanding the authorization for the release, in specific standards 
settings, of certain ``technology'' and ``software'' that is subject to 
the EAR to all entities on the Entity List. BIS understands that much 
of standards development occurs using such ``technology'' and 
``software;'' therefore, this expansion should assist U.S. companies in 
maintaining a leadership position in the global standards community.
c. Standard Development Activities Subject to the EAR
    Several commenters requested additional clarity with respect to 
standards development activities and the interpretation of Sec.  734.7 
of the EAR (Published). One commenter stated that ``discussions with 
representatives of listed entities in the context of legitimate 
standards-setting activities are not [to] be subject to the EAR as they 
are made in the context of an open and transparent process with the 
intent to publish a standard.'' Another commenter requested 
confirmation that unclassified ``technology'' or ``software'' is 
``published'' and thus not subject to the EAR when made available to 
the public without restriction. Additionally, one commenter pointed out 
that ``the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control 
(OFAC) application of sanctions pursuant to the Specially Designated 
Nationals and Blocked Persons List (SDN List) specifically did not 
apply restrictions to participation in standards development activities 
because such interactions were public and intended to result in 
published standards.''
    While the application of OFAC regulations is outside the scope of 
this rule, the EAR currently provide that ``published'' unclassified 
technology or software is not subject to the EAR, and therefore does 
not require a license to be exported, reexported or transferred (in 
country), even to an entity on the Entity List, provided the technology 
or software is available to the public without restriction as set forth 
in Sec.  734.7 of the EAR. Many instances of the release of technology 
or software in the standards environment would be considered published 
and not subject to the EAR. Excluded from the scope of Sec.  734.7 is 
``technology'' or ``software'' that is not available to the public 
without restriction, as well as certain encryption software and certain 
firearm-related software or technology. Such technology or software 
remains subject to the EAR and requires a license for transactions 
involving entities on the Entity List. Therefore, BIS does not agree 
with the general interpretation that transfer or release of ``technical 
data'' within the context of international standards activities would 
necessarily be considered ``Published'' under Sec.  734.7 and therefore 
not subject to the EAR in all circumstances.
d. Public Dialogue and Outreach
    Commenters suggested a number of ways in which BIS could assist 
industry with the interpretation and application of the authorization 
in the context of standards organizations. Three commenters pointed to 
additional dialogue and engagement with the private sector. One 
commenter ``strongly recommend(ed) extensive engagement with the 
private sector and with the National Institute of Standards and 
Technology (NIST), which has statutory responsibilities for 
coordinating federal government standards engagement and also federal 
engagement with the private sector . . . in order to develop smarter 
and more targeted policies vis-[agrave]-vis standards.'' Another 
suggested that BIS ``explore opportunities to educate the industry 
during the rollout of new rules pertaining to standards development''; 
``develop more formal mechanisms and processes for engaging with the 
U.S. technology companies that are active in the standards setting 
community''; and ``take steps to educate the industry on its positions 
on interpretation of the IFR and what to expect in the future.'' BIS 
appreciates these comments and will continue to identify additional 
ways to conduct industry and public outreach. BIS has been working with 
other government agencies, including NIST, on interpretations and EAR 
amendments specific to standards, and will continue to do so to ensure 
that the United States maintains a leadership position in standards 
development, while also preventing unauthorized foreign access to 
sensitive U.S. technology.
    Two commenters also made suggestions regarding BIS's Technical 
Advisory Committees (TAC). One commenter suggested the establishment of 
a standards industry technical advisory committee focused on standards 
development and standards-development activities. The other commenter 
suggested modifying the charter for the Information Systems TAC (ISTAC) 
to enable it to gather and address specific inputs related to

[[Page 55246]]

standards development and to recruit participants that can provide such 
inputs. BIS notes that the ISTAC is only one of BIS's six existing TACs 
and that the information systems sector is not the only industry sector 
involved in standards development. The representatives on BIS's TACs 
have diverse backgrounds in many different industries affected by the 
standards issue and are able to provide BIS with information on how 
their industries are involved in and impacted by standards development. 
Therefore, because BIS will continue to seek input from its TAC 
membership on this and related issues, the establishment of a 
standards-focused TAC is not warranted at this time.

2. Requests for Expansion and Clarification of Authorization From 
Public Comments

    The remainder of the comments can be categorized into three main 
issues and suggested areas of expansion. BIS discusses the comments, 
suggestions, and as necessary, subsequent actions under three sections 
in the background of this rule: (A) Expand the EAR99 and AT-only 
authorization to all entities listed on the Entity List; (B) Expand the 
scope of authorization to additional ``software'' and ``technology'' 
that is widely available; and (C) Clarify and expand the definitions of 
``standards'' and ``standards organizations'' used by BIS to more 
accurately reflect current industry practices and regular activities 
conducted by standards organizations.
(A) Expand the EAR99 and AT-Only Authorization to All Entities Listed 
on the Entity List
    Almost all commenters recommended extending the authorization to 
share technology for the purpose of contributing to the development or 
revision of a standard to other entities on the Entity List. While one 
commenter suggested that the exemption be expanded to companies 
involved in artificial intelligence (AI), other commenters expressed 
that the standards-related authorization should apply to all entities 
on the Entity List. Eight commenters highlighted that, in addition to 
Huawei, there are other entities listed on the Entity List that are 
members of standards bodies or have historically participated in 
standards development activities, and should also be included in the 
authorization. As one commenter noted, ``the unpublished technology 
that needs to be shared within standards organizations is generally not 
sensitive from an export control perspective [as it] is generally AT-
only and EAR99 technology.'' As another commenter stated, if the U.S. 
government has determined that ``a standards-related carve-out for 
Huawei advances U.S. national security, foreign policy, and economic 
security objectives . . . then [allowing the] carve-out for all other 
listed entities would also advance the same objectives.'' A third 
commenter noted that ``Applying that same policy to standards 
activities that include any listed entities also will advance the U.S. 
government objective of ensuring U.S. technological leadership.''
    Thirteen commenters expressed concern that the uncertainty 
regarding licensing requirements for currently listed entities as well 
as future additions to the Entity List creates an increased regulatory 
burden on U.S. industry. As one commenter stated, allowing all 
``entities [on the Entity List] to participate in standards setting 
activities also prevents unintended consequences that could irreparably 
harm U.S. industry and U.S. competitiveness.'' Six commenters pointed 
to the increased regulatory and compliance burden of needing to 
constantly screen changes to the Entity List against standards 
organizations' membership lists. One commenter stated that the 
``current standards setting environment is plagued by uncertainty that 
U.S.-based standards bodies or U.S.-based participants will be unable 
to complete their important work when . . . a non-U.S. standards 
setting member [is added] to the Entity List.'' Three other commenters 
highlighted that extending the authorization to all entities listed on 
the Entity List would level the playing field for U.S. standards 
participants; as one noted, ``with an increasing number of non-US 
companies and multi-national, global organizations spanning multiple 
continents, creating technological advances in a range of connected 
technologies, it is critically important that their contributions be 
considered for the development of standards and specifications that can 
be used around the world . . . By extending the exemption to [all] 
companies on the Entity List, BIS will be leveling the playing field 
for U.S. companies because single standards developed with input from 
participants around the world will open more markets for U.S. companies 
and reduce artificial market barriers in other countries . . . The 
rapid pace of standards development, particularly for digital 
technologies is completely at odds with the time that is typically 
required for applying for exemptions [licenses] to work with 
organizations that are on the Entity List, and for the applications to 
be adjudicated. As these standards development activities routinely 
involve dozens of US companies, it is neither practical, nor reasonable 
to expect all of the participating US companies . . . to apply for such 
exemptions.'' In summary, as one commenter noted, innovation and U.S. 
technological leadership is promoted by ``clarity and simplicity 
regarding the Entity List and standards processes.''
    BIS agrees with the commenters that the standards-related 
authorization should be applied to all entities on the Entity List. The 
uncertainty created by not knowing whether a BIS license is required to 
release low level technology for legitimate standards activities has 
undermined U.S. participation in these activities. The basis for the 
authorization for low level, non-sensitive, and widely available items 
to Huawei is also valid for all other entities on the Entity List. 
Extending a standards authorization to all listed entities on the 
Entity List will reduce the regulatory burden for industry and mitigate 
unintended consequences that could harm U.S. industry leadership and 
competitiveness in the telecommunications and information technology 
sector.
(B) Expand the Scope of the Authorization To Include Additional 
``Technology'' and ``Software''
(1) Expand the Scope of the Authorization To Include ``Software'' 
Designated EAR99 or Controlled for AT Reasons Only
    Eleven commenters suggested that in addition to ``technology,'' 
``software'' should be included in the authorization because the 
sharing of software is increasingly important in standards development. 
According to the commenters, software must be regularly released for 
standardized benchmarks and technology standards commonly include 
software code as part of the standards development process. As one 
commenter highlighted, ``Standards bodies' participants exchange 
software executables and/or source code as part of their work.'' 
Commenters asserted that while some software may be publicly available 
and therefore not subject to the EAR, software subject to the EAR and 
designated EAR99 or controlled for AT reasons only that is shared in 
the ordinary course of standards development activities should be 
authorized to the same extent that ``technology'' that is designated 
EAR99 or controlled for AT reasons only is authorized under the EAR. 
Commenters concurred that including ``software'' in

[[Page 55247]]

the scope of the authorization will not harm national security.
    BIS agrees with commenters that the scope of the authorization 
should be extended to include certain ``software.'' BIS appreciates the 
specific examples provided in the comments that reflect the need to 
share software (e.g., as part of developing codecs, reference software 
implemented as part of the standard). One commenter noted that 
``software allows members to incorporate ideas from many into a design 
the standards body is developing so that the other members can see how 
the idea would work. Such software is not ``production code,'' i.e., 
that which is needed to produce the product. Rather, it is that which 
is designed to show performance aspects of a proposed standard.'' BIS 
acknowledges that the release of certain software is a usual, 
customary, and necessary part of standards activities.
    In response to the public comments, BIS is revising the EAR to 
expand the scope of the authorization to include ``software'' subject 
to the EAR and designated as EAR99 or controlled for AT reasons only, 
or specifically for the ``development,'' ``production,'' and ``use'' of 
cryptographic functionality, when such ``software'' is released in the 
context of a ``standards-related activity'' (see 772.1 of the EAR--
Definitions).
(2) Expand the Scope of the Authorization to ``Technology'' and 
``Software'' Beyond EAR99 and AT-Only Controlled Items
    BIS received fourteen comments requesting that the authorization be 
extended beyond EAR99 and AT-only controlled ``technology'' to include 
additional ``technology'' and ``software.'' One commenter suggested 
that technology ``ranging from hardware and chips to software and 
source code [should be added] to the exemption for standards 
processes.'' Another commenter mentioned that ``the EAR should not 
interfere with U.S. leadership in standards organizations, except with 
respect to truly sensitive military and dual-use technologies that are 
controlled for release to foreign person[s] generally.'' Six commenters 
noted that some standards activities related to encryption, so the 
authorization should be expanded to include information security 
software and technology classified under ECCNs 5D002 and 5E002. One 
commenter also noted that, ``(i)nformation security is a critical 
element of 5G technology. 5G poses an elevated security threat . . . 
Information security must be incorporated from the outset into 5G 
standards, in order to ensure that the expected benefits of 5G networks 
can be achieved and the attendant risks minimized. Adding information 
security technology classified under ECCN 5E002 and related software 
classified under ECCN 5D002 to the list of technologies that may be 
shared in the context of standards organizations is the bare minimum 
required in order to permit standards organizations to address the 
elevated threat presented by 5G networks.''
    BIS recognizes that neither an environment of competing national 
standards nor the exclusion of U.S. companies in international 
standards development is advantageous to U.S. interests. In the case of 
software and technology that is designated EAR99, controlled for AT 
reasons only, BIS is allowing the release, without a license, of 
software and technology that is already widely available on the global 
market. In addition, BIS agrees with commenters that information 
security is an important part of standards work, including in the 
development of 5G standards. BIS is allowing for the release in 
standards environments of software and technology specifically for the 
``development,'' ``production,'' and ``use'' of cryptographic 
functionality; without proper standardization in encryption 
functionality, vulnerabilities and issues in 5G security will pose a 
national security threat to the United States.
    Therefore, in this final rule, BIS is revising the authorization 
for the release, in ``standards related activities,'' to include 
specific ``technology'' and ``software'' that is widely available and 
is subject to the EAR, to all entities on the Entity List. The 
authorization is revised to include software that is designated EAR99, 
software that is controlled for AT reasons only, and software that is 
classified only in ECCN subparagraphs 5D002.b and 5D002.c.1 (only for 
equipment specified in ECCNs 5A002.a and 5A002.c). The authorization 
continues to include the release of technology that is designated 
EAR99, or controlled for AT reasons only, and is revised to include 
technology classified under ECCN 5E002, only for equipment specified in 
ECCN subparagraphs 5A002.a, .b and .c, and technology classified under 
ECCN 5E002 for software controlled under ECCN 5D002.b and .c.1, (only 
for equipment specified in ECCN subparagraphs 5A002.a and .c) when the 
release is for a ``standards-related activity'' and specifically for 
the ``development,'' ``production,'' and ``use'' of cryptographic 
functionality.
    These specific ECCN subparagraphs that are included in the expanded 
authorization allow the release of software and technology for 
functionality but not for other types of information security functions 
that remain controlled in Category 5 Part 2 of the CCL. Included in the 
expanded authorization are software and technology that encrypts and 
decrypts data that is regularly used in the development and production 
of many commonplace products that use cryptography (e.g., smart phones, 
printers/scanners; toys; etc.). The specific software and technology 
authorized include only cryptographic functions needed to assist the 
development of security in a 5G network, not to develop 5G products or 
capacity. No other cryptanalytic items or products that use 
cryptographic techniques are included in the authorization. BIS 
understands that much standards development occurs using this widely 
available ``software'' and ``technology'' covered by the expanded 
authorization and this should assist U.S. companies in maintaining a 
leadership position in the global standards community.
(C) Clarify and Expand the Definitions of ``Standards'' and ``Standards 
Organizations'' Used by BIS To Reflect Current Industry Practices
    Eighteen commenters requested additional clarification or expansion 
of the ``standards'' and ``standards organizations'' definitions added 
to the EAR in the June 18th IFR. The general consensus of the comments 
was that the ``standards'' and ``standards organizations'' definitions 
derived from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-119 
were not the appropriate definitions for this context and created 
uncertainty and questions regarding which U.S. companies and 
organizations in the standards setting community are subject to the 
licensing requirements. As one commenter stated, OMB Circular A-119 
``emphasizes the role of the U.S. government in the development and use 
of standards'' while the exception from the license requirement in the 
June 18th IFR is ``intended to reduce barriers for U.S. companies in 
their participation and leadership in the development of standards.''
(1) Comments Regarding ``Standards''
    BIS received thirteen comments regarding the OMB Circular A-119 
definition of ``standards.'' Eight commenters requested additional 
clarification or confirmation regarding the ``standards'' definition 
while six commenters suggested revisions and expansions to the 
definition.

[[Page 55248]]

(a) Clarification and Confirmation of Definition
    A number of commenters requested confirmation from BIS that 
certification and conformance activities were included in the 
definition of ``standards.'' One commenter noted that the OMB Circular 
mentions that: ``Certification programs are conformity assessment 
activities . . . The definition of `conformity assessment' in the OMB 
Circular states that certification, as well as the accreditations of 
the competence of these activities, is included . . . [In addition], 
OMB Circular A-119 recognizes that conformity assessment activities are 
part of, and integral to, much of standards development . . . Finally, 
federal law explicitly recognizes standards development activities to 
include conformity assessment activities. The National Cooperative 
Research and Production Act of 1993 uses the same definition of a 
`voluntary consensus standard' used in OMB Circular A-119 and further 
defines a `standards development activity.' ''
    Another commenter requested confirmation that ``the scope of 
standards development activities permitted by the Final Rule includes 
any action taken by an SDO for the purpose of developing, promulgating, 
revising, reissuing, interpreting, or otherwise maintaining a voluntary 
consensus standard, including standard conformity testing and 
assessment activities.''
(b) Revision and Expansion of Definition
    One commenter requested that ``standardized benchmarks'' be 
included as part of the standards definition and defined as 
``measurement software developed by an organization of relevant 
industry companies to evaluate the performance or energy consumption of 
a computing system. Without such an amendment, American companies will 
be excluded from the development of standardized benchmarks which are 
critical for selling computers.''
    Several commenters referenced the Standards Development 
Organization Advancement Act of 2004 (SDOAA) (15 U.S.C. 4301-4306) and 
suggested the addition of and adherence to its ``standards development 
activity'' definition, which is commonly accepted by industry and 
extends beyond production to include post-production activities. One 
commenter stated that the ``EAR defines ``development'' to include all 
stages prior to an item's being in ``production,'' e.g., no longer 
being modified. However, ``standards development activities'' are 
clearly defined in U.S. standards law (the SDOAA) as including 
activities [in] all stages of a standard's promulgation, such as its 
maintenance and conformity assessment.'' A separate comment noted that 
even applying a restrictive (but definitive) EAR definition of 
``development'' to the standards carve-out would resolve uncertainty 
about whether ordinary promulgation and standards related activities 
are within the scope of the authorization.
    Several commenters suggested that BIS define ``standards-related 
activities'' by referencing the existing definition from the Trade 
Agreements Act (TAA) of 1979 (19 U.S.C. 2501-2582). Several commenters 
also requested guidance on whether ``standards'' include important 
ancillary aspects of a standard, such as reference implementations, 
interoperability testing, conformance testing results, and other 
related technology development that helps to foster adoption, 
implementation, and improvement of the underlying standard. The 
commenters suggested that if these actions are not considered 
``standards'' under the June 18th definition, the definition should be 
``broadened to apply to encompass these activities of standards bodies 
that facilitate widespread adoption of technical standards.'' The 
comments also emphasized that allowing the full set of activities 
undertaken by a standards-setting body would enable U.S. companies to 
lead throughout the lifecycle of standards development.
(2) Comments Regarding ``Standards Organization''
    BIS received twelve comments regarding the OMB Circular A-119 
definition of ``Standards Organization.'' As one commenter noted, 
``uncertainty regarding whether a standards organization meets the 
characteristics of a ``standards organization'' as defined [by Circular 
A-119] could cause U.S. companies to limit, withdraw, or delay their 
involvement in standards organizations . . . Participation rates in 
standards development is a key factor in the success and adoption of 
those standards.'' Seven comments requested additional clarification or 
confirmation regarding BIS's ``standards organization'' definition 
while five comments included suggested revisions and expansions to the 
definition.
    A number of comments requested clarity or confirmation regarding 
what types of organizations met the equivalent ``voluntary consensus 
standards body'' (VCSB) definition as defined by OMB Circular A-119. 
One commenter requested clarification as to whether the June 18th IFR 
applies only to international voluntary consensus standards bodies or 
``if it also applies to national standard setting organizations. OMB 
Circular No. A-119, which the rule refers to, notes that standard 
setting organizations are both domestic and international, although the 
language of the rule seems to contemplate the rule applying to 
international standard setting.'' Four commenters requested that BIS 
confirm that consortia or alliances are considered ``standards 
organizations'' for the purposes of the June 18th IFR. Two commenters 
requested confirmation that entities that develop certification 
programs would also be considered VCSBs. One commenter requested 
further clarification on SSO's and whether U.S. persons are permitted 
to work with Huawei and its affiliates in standards development 
activities or not.
    A number of commenters suggested revisions to BIS's definition of 
``standards organizations.'' Several commenters opined that OMB 
Circular No. A-119 and the definition of VCSBs is not a suitable 
definition for purposes of the EAR. One commenter recommended amending 
the definition to remove the ``appeals process'' required by OMB 
Circular No. A-119. Another commenter suggested that paid membership 
model organizations not be excluded from the scope of the VSCB 
definition. One commenter suggested that BIS should state that ``U.S. 
companies may safely participate in any SSO formed with the intention 
of creating global standards and which admits all interested parties as 
members on a non-discriminatory basis. Failing that, providing an SSO-
specific exception referencing only the Openness and Consensus elements 
of the VCSB definition, tailored to ICT SSO realities, would provide a 
next-best solution.'' The same commenter endorsed the use of 
``industry-accepted objective criteria, such as the ISO/IEC JTC-1 PAS 
Submitter process as well as other industry-established criteria or 
processes that would recognize legitimate standards organizations as 
qualifying as ``standards organizations''.''
(3) Removal of Definitions for ``Standards'' and ``Standards 
Organization;'' Addition of Definition for ``Standards-Related 
Activity''
    BIS appreciates the insight and suggestions provided in the public 
comments to the June 18th IFR regarding the definitions, as well as the 
explanations of the issues that companies face on a practical level 
with regard to standards and information

[[Page 55249]]

sharing in the context of standards organizations. BIS understands and 
acknowledges that the ``standards'' and ``standards organizations'' 
terms, as defined by the OMB Circular No. A-119, do not adequately 
address the breadth of activities and issues that companies run into 
while participating in standards organizations.
    Therefore, based on this input derived from public comments and 
interagency discussions, this final rule removes the definitions of 
``standards'' and ``standards organization'' from the EAR. BIS 
considered the definitions found in the TAA and SDOAA and incorporated 
the relevant and applicable elements of the definitions into a 
``standards-related activity'' definition. BIS is adding this term to 
Sec.  772.1 of the EAR (Definitions). The scope of the standards 
authorization now reflects activities as defined and in the context of 
a ``standards-related activity.'' Use of the ``standards-related 
activity'' definition appropriately focuses export controls on 
activities that are important to United States technological leadership 
rather than the type of organization that performs them. Standards 
activities must not be constrained by defining the organization or 
product of the deliberations in such a way that full participation in 
the intended activities cannot be achieved.

Export Control Reform Act of 2018

    On August 13, 2018, the President 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). ECRA provides the legal basis for BIS's principal authorities 
and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this rule. As set 
forth in Section 1768 of ECRA, all delegations, rules, regulations, 
orders, determinations, licenses, or other forms of administrative 
action that were made, issued, conducted, or allowed to become 
effective under the Export Administration Act of 1979 (previously, 50 
U.S.C. 4601 et seq.) (as in effect prior to August 13, 2018 and as 
continued in effect pursuant to the International Emergency Economic 
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.)) or the Export Administration 
Regulations, and were in effect as of August 13, 2018, shall continue 
in effect according to their terms until modified, superseded, set 
aside, or revoked under the authority of ECRA.

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, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting 
flexibility. This interim final rule has been designated as significant 
for purposes of Executive Order 12866.
    2. 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 interim final rule 
involves the collection currently approved by OMB under the BIS control 
number: Simplified Network Application Processing System (control 
number 0694-0088), which includes, among other things, license 
applications. The information collection under control number 0694-
0088, carries a burden estimate of 29.4 minutes for a manual or 
electronic submission for a total burden estimate of 31,835 hours. 
Total burden hours associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694-
0088 are not expected to increase as a result of this rule.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications 
as that term is defined in Executive Order 13132.
    4. Pursuant to section 1762 of ECRA, this action is exempt from the 
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requirements, including 
prior notice and the opportunity for public comment.
    5. 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.

2. Section 744.11 is amended by revising paragraph (a) introductory 
text and paragraph (a)(1) to read as follows:


Sec.  744.11  License requirements that apply to entities acting 
contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the 
United States.

* * * * *
    (a) License requirement, availability of license exceptions, and 
license application review policy. A license is required, to the extent 
specified on the Entity List, to export, reexport, or transfer (in-
country) any item subject to the EAR when an entity that is listed on 
the Entity List is a party to the transaction as described in Sec.  
748.5(c) through(f) of the EAR unless otherwise authorized or excluded 
in this section. License exceptions may not be used unless authorized 
in the Entity List entry for the entity that is party to the 
transaction. Applications for licenses required by this section will be 
evaluated as stated in the Entity List entry for the entity that is 
party to the transaction, in addition to any other applicable review 
policy stated elsewhere in the EAR.
    (1) Standards Related Activity. A license is not required for the 
release of ``technology'' or ``software'' designated EAR99 or 
controlled on the CCL for anti-terrorism reasons only, when such a 
release is for a ``standards-related activity.'' In addition, a license 
is not required for the release of the following ECCN ``items'' level 
paragraphs of ``technology'' or ``software'' specifically for the 
``development,'' ``production,'' or ``use'' of cryptographic 
functionality

the development, adoption, or application of a standard (i.e., any 
document or other writing that provides, for common and repeated use, 
rules, guidelines, technical or other characteristics for products or 
related processes and production methods, with which compliance is not 
mandatory), including but not limited to conformity assessment 
procedures, with the intent that the resulting standard will be 
``published.'' A ``standards-related activity'' includes an action 
taken for the purpose of developing, promulgating, revising, amending, 
reissuing, interpreting, implementing or otherwise maintaining or 
applying such a standard.
