[FR Doc. 2022–22037 Filed 10–7–22; 11:15 am] BILLING CODE 3510–33–P DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Bureau of Industry and Security 15 CFR Part 744 [Docket No. 220930–0205] RIN 0694–AI51 Revisions to the Unverified List; Clarifications to Activities and Criteria That May Lead to Additions to the Entity List Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce. ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding 31 persons to the Unverified List (UVL). The 31 persons are added to the UVL on the basis that BIS was unable to verify their bona fides because an end-use check could not be completed satisfactorily for reasons outside the U.S. Government’s control. All 31 persons are being added under the destination of the People’s Republic of China (China). This rule also removes nine persons, all under the destination of China, from the UVL because BIS was able to verify their bona fides. With this final rule, BIS also clarifies the activities and criteria that may lead to the addition of an entity to the Entity List, including a sustained lack of cooperation by the host government (e.g., the government of the country in which an end-use check is to be conducted) that effectively prevents BIS from determining compliance with the EAR. SUMMARY: DATES: This rule is effective October 7, 2022. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Linda Minsker, Director, Office of Enforcement Analysis, Phone: (202) 482–4255 or by email at UVLRequest@ bis.doc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The UVL, set forth in supplement no. 6 to part 744 of the EAR (15 CFR parts 730–774), contains the names and addresses of foreign persons who are or have been parties to a transaction, as PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 61971 described in § 748.5 of the EAR, involving the export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of items subject to the EAR. These foreign persons are added to the UVL because BIS or federal officials acting on BIS’s behalf were unable to verify their bona fides (i.e., legitimacy and reliability relating to the end use and end user of items subject to the EAR) through the completion of an end-use check. Sometimes these checks, such as a pre-license check (PLC) or a post-shipment verification (PSV), cannot be completed satisfactorily for reasons outside the U.S. Government’s control. There are any number of reasons why these checks cannot be completed to the satisfaction of the U.S. Government. The reasons include, but are not limited to: (1) reasons unrelated to the cooperation of the foreign party subject to the enduse check (for example, BIS sometimes initiates end-use checks but is unable to complete them because the foreign party cannot be found at the address indicated on the associated export documents and BIS cannot contact the party by telephone or email); (2) reasons related to a lack of cooperation by the host government that fails to schedule and facilitate the completion of an end-use check, for example by host government agencies’ lack of responses to requests to conduct end-use checks, actions preventing the scheduling of such checks, or refusals to schedule checks in a timely manner; or (3) when, during the end-use check, a recipient of items subject to the EAR is unable to produce the items that are the subject of the enduse check for visual inspection or provide sufficient documentation or other evidence to confirm the disposition of the items. BIS’s inability to confirm the bona fides of foreign persons subject to end-use checks for the reasons described above raises concerns about the suitability of such persons as participants in future exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of items subject to the EAR; this also indicates a risk that such items may be diverted to prohibited end uses and/or end users. Under such circumstances, there may not be sufficient information to add the foreign person at issue to the Entity List under § 744.11 of the EAR. Therefore, BIS may add the foreign person to the UVL. As provided in § 740.2(a)(17) of the EAR, the use of license exceptions for exports, reexports, and transfers (incountry) involving a party or parties to the transaction who are listed on the UVL is suspended. Additionally, under § 744.15(b) of the EAR, there is a requirement for exporters, re-exporters, and transferors to obtain (and maintain E:\FR\FM\13OCR1.SGM 13OCR1 61972 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 197 / Thursday, October 13, 2022 / Rules and Regulations a record of) a UVL statement from a party or parties to the transaction who are listed on the UVL before proceeding with exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to such persons, when the exports, reexports and transfers (incountry) are not subject to a license requirement. Finally, pursuant to § 758.1(b)(8), Electronic Export Information (EEI) must be filed in the Automated Export System (AES) for all exports of tangible items subject to the EAR when a party or parties to the transaction is/are listed on the UVL. Requests for the removal of a UVL entry must be made in accordance with § 744.15(d) of the EAR. Decisions regarding the removal or modification of UVL entry are made by the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Enforcement on the basis of a demonstration by the listed person of their bona fides. Additions to the UVL This rule adds 31 persons to the UVL by amending supplement no. 6 to part 744 of the EAR to include their names and addresses. BIS is adding these persons pursuant to § 744.15(c) of the EAR. This final rule implements the decision to add the following 31 persons located in China to the UVL: khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES China 1.

This final rule removes nine persons from the UVL after BIS was able to verify their bona fides. This rule removes Anhui Institute of Metrology, Chuzhou HKC Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd., Hefei Anxin Reed Precision Co. Ltd., Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Jiutian Intelligent Equipment Co. Ltd., Suzhou Gyz Electronic Technology Co. Ltd., Suzhou Lylap Mould Technology Co Ltd., Wuxi Biologics Co., Ltd., and Wuxi Turbine Blade Co., Ltd. from the UVL, all under the destination of China. BIS is removing these nine persons pursuant to § 744.15(c)(2) of the EAR. Changes to § 744.11 The inability of BIS to determine compliance with the EAR because of a host government’s action or inaction creates a circumstance that may place an entity at significant risk of being or becoming involved in activities contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. For example, as previously mentioned, BIS frequently conducts end-use checks of foreign parties to verify their bona fides, thereby mitigating the risk of diversion of items subject to the EAR. If BIS is unable to conduct timely end-use checks, BIS’s ability to prevent diversion and resolve concerns about potentially problematic end uses and users is negatively impacted. The sustained and deliberate prevention of an end-use check by a foreign government is therefore contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States. Further, the inability of an entity to receive a timely end-use check could lead to the determination that it is at significant risk of involvement in activities contrary to U.S. national security or foreign policy interests, leading to concerns regarding its receipt of items PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 subject to the EAR. To better reflect the nature of the risk presented by such entities, when the risk assessed is the result of the actions of the relevant host government authority rather than the actions of the entities themselves, BIS is revising the heading of § 744.11, as well as the introductory text of § 744.11 and § 744.11(b), by adding language to also refer to entities that are ‘‘at significant risk’’ of acting contrary to the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States. This includes sustained lack of cooperation by the host government to schedule and facilitate the completion of end-use checks. Particularly for entities identified on the UVL pursuant to § 744.15, this lack of cooperation could result in sufficient concern such that the End-User Review Committee (ERC) could make the determination that the addition of the entity to the Entity List will enhance BIS’s ability to prevent violations of the EAR. Therefore, BIS also amends the EAR by providing an additional illustrative example to specify that situations in which there is a sustained lack of cooperation by a host government authority that prevents an end-use check from being conducted may constitute a basis for adding a party to the Entity List. This activity is being added to the illustrative list in § 744.11(b) of activities contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States that may support the addition of entities to the Entity List. Additions to, removals from, or other modifications to the Entity List will remain consistent with procedures described in supplement no. 5 to part 744 of the EAR. As part of that process, the ERC, which is composed of representatives of the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy and, where appropriate, the Treasury, makes all decisions regarding additions to, removals from, or other modifications to the Entity List. The ERC makes all decisions to add an entry to the Entity List by majority vote and makes all decisions to remove or modify an entry by unanimous vote. Additional EAR Changes This final rule also makes additional changes to the EAR. To better align the multiple lists found in part 744, BIS is changing the Federal Register citation column in the UVL to match those of the other lists. Prior to this rule, it read ‘‘Federal Register citation and date of publication’’ and it will now read ‘‘Federal Register citation.’’ Please note that, like the other lists in part 744, the UVL’s citation column will still include E:\FR\FM\13OCR1.SGM 13OCR1 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 197 / Thursday, October 13, 2022 / Rules and Regulations the date of publication, however, the date remains part of the broader citation itself for the purposes of the list. 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. Sections 4801–4852. ECRA provides the legal basis for BIS’s principal authorities and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this final rule. Savings Clause Shipments (1) that are removed from license exception eligibility or that are now subject to requirements in § 744.15 of the EAR as a result of this regulatory action; (2) that were eligible for export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) without a license before this regulatory action; and (3) that were on dock for loading, on lighter, laden aboard an exporting carrier, or enroute aboard a carrier to a port of export, on October 7, 2022, pursuant to actual orders, may proceed to that UVL listed person under the previous license exception eligibility or without a license and pursuant to the export clearance requirements set forth in part 758 of the EAR that applied prior to this person being listed on the UVL, so long as the items have been exported from the United States, reexported or transferred (in-country) before November 7, 2022. Any such items not actually exported, reexported or transferred (in-country) before midnight on November 7, 2022 are subject to the requirements in § 744.15 of the EAR in accordance with this regulation. Rulemaking Requirements khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES Executive Order Requirements Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distribute 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 final rule is a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under Executive Order 12866. This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications as that term is defined under Executive Order 13132. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:28 Oct 12, 2022 Jkt 259001 61973 Paperwork Reduction Act Requirements parts 730 through 774) is amended as follows: Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to, nor is 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.

PART 744—[AMENDED] Administrative Procedure Act and Regulatory Flexibility Act Requirements Pursuant to Section 4821 of ECRA, this action is exempt from the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requirements for notice of proposed rulemaking and opportunity for public participation. Further, no other law requires notice of proposed rulemaking or opportunity for public comment for this final rule. Because a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are not required under the Administrative Procedure Act or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable.

Section 744.11 is revised to read as follows: ■ § 744.11 License requirements that apply to entities acting or at significant risk of acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. BIS may impose foreign policy export, re-export, and transfer (in-country) license requirements, limitations on availability of license exceptions, and set license application review policy based on the criteria in this section. Such requirements, limitations and policy are in addition to those set forth elsewhere in the EAR. License requirements, limitations on use of license exceptions, and license application review policies will be imposed under this section by adding an entity to the Entity List (supplement no. 4 to this part) with a reference to this section and by stating on the Entity List the license requirements and license application review policies that apply to that entity, or by informing an exporter, re-exporter, or transferor pursuant to paragraph (c) of this section that a specific entity is subject to a license requirement, limitations on use of license exceptions and license application review policies as specified in a specific notice provided to an exporter, re-exporter, or transferor. BIS may remove an entity from the Entity List if it is no longer engaged in the activities described in paragraph (b) of this section and is unlikely to engage in such activities in the future, or if it is no longer at significant risk of acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States as described therein. BIS may modify the license exception limitations and license application review policies that apply to a particular entity to implement the policies of this section. BIS will implement the provisions of E:\FR\FM\13OCR1.SGM 13OCR1 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES 61974 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 197 / Thursday, October 13, 2022 / Rules and Regulations this section in accordance with the decisions of the End-User Review Committee or, if appropriate in a particular case, in accordance with the decisions of the body to which the EndUser Review Committee decision is escalated. The End-User Review Committee will follow the procedures set forth in supplement no. 5 to this part. (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 § 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 when such a release is for a ‘‘standardsrelated activity:’’ ‘‘software’’ that is classified under ECCN 5D002.b or 5D002.c.1 (for equipment specified in ECCN 5A002.a and 5A002.c only); ‘‘technology’’ that is classified under ECCN 5E002 (for equipment specified in ECCN 5A002.a, .b and .c); and ‘‘technology’’ for software controlled under ECCN 5D002.b or .c.1 (for equipment specified in ECCN 5A002.a and .c only). (2) Entity List Foreign-Direct Product (FDP) license requirements, review policy, and license exceptions. You may not, without a license or license exception, reexport, export from abroad, or transfer (in-country) any foreignproduced item subject to the EAR pursuant to § 734.9(e) of the EAR to any end user described in § 734.9(e)(2) of the EAR. All license exceptions described in part 740 of the EAR are available for foreign-produced items that are subject to this license requirement if all terms and conditions of the applicable license VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:28 Oct 12, 2022 Jkt 259001 exception are met and the restrictions in § 740.2 do not apply. The sophistication and capabilities of technology in items is a factor in license application review; license applications for foreignproduced items subject to a license requirement by this paragraph (a)(2) that are capable of supporting the ‘‘development’’ or ‘‘production’’ of telecom systems, equipment and devices below the 5G level (e.g., 4G, 3G) will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. (b) Criteria for revising the Entity List. Entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, that the entity has been involved, is involved, or poses a significant risk of being or becoming involved in activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States and those acting on behalf of such entities may be added to the Entity List pursuant to this section. An entity may pose a significant risk through certain circumstances that may be outside of its own control. Such circumstances that may place an entity at significant risk include situations involving a sustained lack of cooperation by a host government authority, for example, by preventing an end-use check from being conducted, that effectively prevents BIS from determining compliance with the EAR. This section may not be used to place on the Entity List any party to which exports or reexports require a license pursuant to § 744.8, § 744.12, § 744.13, § 744.14, or § 744.18. This section may not be used to place any U.S. person, as defined in § 772.1 of the EAR, on the Entity List. Paragraphs (b)(1) through (5) of this section provide an illustrative list of activities that could be or represent a significant risk of being contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. (1) Supporting persons engaged in acts of terror. (2) Actions that could enhance the military capability of, or the ability to support terrorism of governments that have been designated by the Secretary of State as having repeatedly provided support for acts of international terrorism. (3) Transferring, developing, servicing, repairing or producing conventional weapons in a manner that is contrary to United States national security or foreign policy interests or enabling such transfer, service, repair, development, or production by supplying parts, components, technology, or financing for such activity. (4) Prevention of the accomplishment of an end use check conducted by or on behalf of BIS or the Directorate of PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Defense Trade Controls of the Department of State by: (i) The entity precluding access to; refusing to provide information about; or providing false or misleading information about parties to the transaction or the item to be checked. The conduct in this example includes: expressly refusing to permit a check; providing false or misleading information; or engaging in dilatory or evasive conduct that effectively prevents the check from occurring or makes the check inaccurate or useless. A nexus between the conduct of the party to be listed and the failure to produce a complete, accurate and useful check is required, even though an express refusal by the party to be listed is not required; or (ii) A sustained lack of cooperation by the host government to schedule and facilitate the completion of an end-use check of entities identified on the Unverified List pursuant to § 744.15, resulting in sufficient concern such that the End-User Review Committee believes that prior review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) involving the entity and the possible imposition of license conditions or license denial enhance BIS’s ability to prevent violations of the EAR. (5) Engaging in conduct that poses a risk of violating the EAR when such conduct raises sufficient concern that the End-User Review Committee believes that prior review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) involving the party and the possible imposition of license conditions or license denial enhances BIS’s ability to prevent violations of the EAR. (c) Additional prohibition on persons informed by BIS. BIS may inform persons, either individually by specific notice or through amendment to the EAR, that a license is required for: (1) A specific export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) because there is an unacceptable risk that the export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) is intended to circumvent the license requirement imposed on an entity listed in supplement no. 4 to this part; or (2) The export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of specified items to a certain party because there is an unacceptable risk that the party is acting as an agent, front, or shell company for an entity listed in supplement no. 4 to this part, or is otherwise assisting that listed entity in circumventing the license requirement set forth in that entity’s entry in supplement no. 4 to this part; or (3) The export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of specified items to a certain party because there is reasonable E:\FR\FM\13OCR1.SGM 13OCR1 61975 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 197 / Thursday, October 13, 2022 / Rules and Regulations cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, that the entity has been involved, is involved, or poses a significant risk of being or becoming involved in activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States and those acting on behalf of such entity. Specific notice will be given only by, or at the direction of, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Administration. When such notice is provided orally, it will be followed by written notice within two working days signed by the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Export Administration or the Deputy Assistant Secretary’s designee. The specific notice will include the license requirement, limitations on use of license exceptions, and license application review policy with which that exporter, re-exporter, or transferor must comply pursuant to this paragraph (c)(3). The ERC may add such entities to the Entity List in supplement no. 4 to this part. ■ 3. Supplement no. 6 to part 744 is amended by: ■ a.

RIN 0694-AI51


Revisions to the Unverified List; Clarifications to Activities 
and Criteria That May Lead to Additions to the Entity List

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is amending the 
Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding 31 persons to the 
Unverified List (UVL). The 31 persons are added to the UVL on the basis 
that BIS was unable to verify their bona fides because an end-use check 
could not be completed satisfactorily for reasons outside the U.S. 
Government's control. All 31 persons are being added under the 
destination of the People's Republic of China (China). This rule also 
removes nine persons, all under the destination of China, from the UVL 
because BIS was able to verify their bona fides. With this final rule, 
BIS also clarifies the activities and criteria that may lead to the 
addition of an entity to the Entity List, including a sustained lack of 
cooperation by the host government (e.g., the government of the country 
in which an end-use check is to be conducted) that effectively prevents 
BIS from determining compliance with the EAR.

DATES: This rule is effective October 7, 2022.

Enforcement Analysis, Phone: (202) 482-4255 or by email at 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    The UVL, set forth in supplement no. 6 to part 744 of the EAR (15 
CFR parts 730-774), contains the names and addresses of foreign persons 
who are or have been parties to a transaction, as described in Sec.  
748.5 of the EAR, involving the export, reexport, or transfer (in-
country) of items subject to the EAR. These foreign persons are added 
to the UVL because BIS or federal officials acting on BIS's behalf were 
unable to verify their bona fides (i.e., legitimacy and reliability 
relating to the end use and end user of items subject to the EAR) 
through the completion of an end-use check. Sometimes these checks, 
such as a pre-license check (PLC) or a post-shipment verification 
(PSV), cannot be completed satisfactorily for reasons outside the U.S. 
Government's control.
    There are any number of reasons why these checks cannot be 
completed to the satisfaction of the U.S. Government. The reasons 
include, but are not limited to: (1) reasons unrelated to the 
cooperation of the foreign party subject to the end-use check (for 
example, BIS sometimes initiates end-use checks but is unable to 
complete them because the foreign party cannot be found at the address 
indicated on the associated export documents and BIS cannot contact the 
party by telephone or email); (2) reasons related to a lack of 
cooperation by the host government that fails to schedule and 
facilitate the completion of an end-use check, for example by host 
government agencies' lack of responses to requests to conduct end-use 
checks, actions preventing the scheduling of such checks, or refusals 
to schedule checks in a timely manner; or (3) when, during the end-use 
check, a recipient of items subject to the EAR is unable to produce the 
items that are the subject of the end-use check for visual inspection 
or provide sufficient documentation or other evidence to confirm the 
disposition of the items. BIS's inability to confirm the bona fides of 
foreign persons subject to end-use checks for the reasons described 
above raises concerns about the suitability of such persons as 
participants in future exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of 
items subject to the EAR; this also indicates a risk that such items 
may be diverted to prohibited end uses and/or end users. Under such 
circumstances, there may not be sufficient information to add the 
foreign person at issue to the Entity List under Sec.  744.11 of the 
EAR. Therefore, BIS may add the foreign person to the UVL.
    As provided in Sec.  740.2(a)(17) of the EAR, the use of license 
exceptions for exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) involving 
a party or parties to the transaction who are listed on the UVL is 
suspended. Additionally, under Sec.  744.15(b) of the EAR, there is a 
requirement for exporters, re-exporters, and transferors to obtain (and 
maintain

[[Page 61972]]

a record of) a UVL statement from a party or parties to the transaction 
who are listed on the UVL before proceeding with exports, reexports, 
and transfers (in-country) to such persons, when the exports, reexports 
and transfers (in-country) are not subject to a license requirement. 
Finally, pursuant to Sec.  758.1(b)(8), Electronic Export Information 
(EEI) must be filed in the Automated Export System (AES) for all 
exports of tangible items subject to the EAR when a party or parties to 
the transaction is/are listed on the UVL.
    Requests for the removal of a UVL entry must be made in accordance 
with Sec.  744.15(d) of the EAR. Decisions regarding the removal or 
modification of UVL entry are made by the Deputy Assistant Secretary 
for Export Enforcement on the basis of a demonstration by the listed 
person of their bona fides.

Additions to the UVL

    This rule adds 31 persons to the UVL by amending supplement no. 6 
to part 744 of the EAR to include their names and addresses. BIS is 
adding these persons pursuant to Sec.  744.15(c) of the EAR. This final 
rule implements the decision to add the following 31 persons located in 
China to the UVL:
China

1. Beijing Naura Magnetoelectric Technology Co., Ltd.
2. Beijing PowerMac Company
3. CCIC Southern Electronic Product Testing Co., Ltd.

31. Yangtze Memory Technologies Co., Ltd.

Removals From the UVL.

    This final rule removes nine persons from the UVL after BIS was 
able to verify their bona fides. This rule removes Anhui Institute of 
Metrology, Chuzhou HKC Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd., Hefei 
Anxin Reed Precision Co. Ltd., Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, 
Jiutian Intelligent Equipment Co. Ltd., Suzhou Gyz Electronic 
Technology Co. Ltd., Suzhou Lylap Mould Technology Co Ltd., Wuxi 
Biologics Co., Ltd., and Wuxi Turbine Blade Co., Ltd. from the UVL, all 
under the destination of China. BIS is removing these nine persons 
pursuant to Sec.  744.15(c)(2) of the EAR.

Changes to Sec.  744.11

    The inability of BIS to determine compliance with the EAR because 
of a host government's action or inaction creates a circumstance that 
may place an entity at significant risk of being or becoming involved 
in activities contrary to the national security or foreign policy 
interests of the United States. For example, as previously mentioned, 
BIS frequently conducts end-use checks of foreign parties to verify 
their bona fides, thereby mitigating the risk of diversion of items 
subject to the EAR. If BIS is unable to conduct timely end-use checks, 
BIS's ability to prevent diversion and resolve concerns about 
potentially problematic end uses and users is negatively impacted. The 
sustained and deliberate prevention of an end-use check by a foreign 
government is therefore contrary to the national security and foreign 
policy interests of the United States. Further, the inability of an 
entity to receive a timely end-use check could lead to the 
determination that it is at significant risk of involvement in 
activities contrary to U.S. national security or foreign policy 
interests, leading to concerns regarding its receipt of items subject 
to the EAR. To better reflect the nature of the risk presented by such 
entities, when the risk assessed is the result of the actions of the 
relevant host government authority rather than the actions of the 
entities themselves, BIS is revising the heading of Sec.  744.11, as 
well as the introductory text of Sec.  744.11 and Sec.  744.11(b), by 
adding language to also refer to entities that are ``at significant 
risk'' of acting contrary to the foreign policy and national security 
interests of the United States.
    This includes sustained lack of cooperation by the host government 
to schedule and facilitate the completion of end-use checks. 
Particularly for entities identified on the UVL pursuant to Sec.  
744.15, this lack of cooperation could result in sufficient concern 
such that the End-User Review Committee (ERC) could make the 
determination that the addition of the entity to the Entity List will 
enhance BIS's ability to prevent violations of the EAR. Therefore, BIS 
also amends the EAR by providing an additional illustrative example to 
specify that situations in which there is a sustained lack of 
cooperation by a host government authority that prevents an end-use 
check from being conducted may constitute a basis for adding a party to 
the Entity List. This activity is being added to the illustrative list 
in Sec.  744.11(b) of activities contrary to the national security and 
foreign policy interests of the United States that may support the 
addition of entities to the Entity List.
    Additions to, removals from, or other modifications to the Entity 
List will remain consistent with procedures described in supplement no. 
5 to part 744 of the EAR. As part of that process, the ERC, which is 
composed of representatives of the Departments of Commerce (Chair), 
State, Defense, Energy and, where appropriate, the Treasury, makes all 
decisions regarding additions to, removals from, or other modifications 
to the Entity List. The ERC makes all decisions to add an entry to the 
Entity List by majority vote and makes all decisions to remove or 
modify an entry by unanimous vote.

Additional EAR Changes

    This final rule also makes additional changes to the EAR. To better 
align the multiple lists found in part 744, BIS is changing the Federal 
Register citation column in the UVL to match those of the other lists. 
Prior to this rule, it read ``Federal Register citation and date of 
publication'' and it will now read ``Federal Register citation.'' 
Please note that, like the other lists in part 744, the UVL's citation 
column will still include

[[Page 61973]]

the date of publication, however, the date remains part of the broader 
citation itself for the purposes of the list.

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. 
Sections 4801-4852. ECRA provides the legal basis for BIS's principal 
authorities and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this 
final rule.

Savings Clause

    Shipments (1) that are removed from license exception eligibility 
or that are now subject to requirements in Sec.  744.15 of the EAR as a 
result of this regulatory action; (2) that were eligible for export, 
reexport, or transfer (in-country) without a license before this 
regulatory action; and (3) that were on dock for loading, on lighter, 
laden aboard an exporting carrier, or enroute aboard a carrier to a 
port of export, on October 7, 2022, pursuant to actual orders, may 
proceed to that UVL listed person under the previous license exception 
eligibility or without a license and pursuant to the export clearance 
requirements set forth in part 758 of the EAR that applied prior to 
this person being listed on the UVL, so long as the items have been 
exported from the United States, reexported or transferred (in-country) 
before November 7, 2022. Any such items not actually exported, 
reexported or transferred (in-country) before midnight on November 7, 
2022 are subject to the requirements in Sec.  744.15 of the EAR in 
accordance with this regulation.

Rulemaking Requirements

Executive Order Requirements

    Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all 
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if 
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize 
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public 
health and safety effects, distribute 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 final rule is a ``significant regulatory action'' 
under Executive Order 12866.
    This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications as 
that term is defined under Executive Order 13132.

Paperwork Reduction Act Requirements

    Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required 
to respond to, nor is 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 action contains 
collections of information approved by OMB under the following control 
numbers:

 OMB Control Number 0694-0088--Simple Network Application 
Process and Multipurpose Application Form
 OMB Control Number 0694-0122--Miscellaneous Licensing 
Responsibilities and Enforcement
 OMB Control Number 0694-0134--Entity List and Unverified List 
Requests
 OMB Control Number 0694-0137--License Exemptions and 
Exclusions

    BIS believes that the overall increases in burdens and costs will 
be minimal and will fall within the already approved amounts for these 
existing collections.
    Information regarding these collections including all supporting 
materials can be reviewed at www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find 
the particular information collection by using the search function and 
entering the OMB Control Number, 0694-0088, 0694-0122, 0694-0134, or 
0694-0137.

Administrative Procedure Act and Regulatory Flexibility Act 
Requirements

    Pursuant to Section 4821 of ECRA, this action is exempt from the 
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requirements for notice of 
proposed rulemaking and opportunity for public participation.
    Further, no other law requires notice of proposed rulemaking or 
opportunity for public comment for this final rule. Because a notice of 
proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment are not 
required under the Administrative Procedure Act or by any other law, 
the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 
601 et seq.) are not applicable.

2. Section 744.11 is revised to read as follows:


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

    BIS may impose foreign policy export, re-export, and transfer (in-
country) license requirements, limitations on availability of license 
exceptions, and set license application review policy based on the 
criteria in this section. Such requirements, limitations and policy are 
in addition to those set forth elsewhere in the EAR. License 
requirements, limitations on use of license exceptions, and license 
application review policies will be imposed under this section by 
adding an entity to the Entity List (supplement no. 4 to this part) 
with a reference to this section and by stating on the Entity List the 
license requirements and license application review policies that apply 
to that entity, or by informing an exporter, re-exporter, or transferor 
pursuant to paragraph (c) of this section that a specific entity is 
subject to a license requirement, limitations on use of license 
exceptions and license application review policies as specified in a 
specific notice provided to an exporter, re-exporter, or transferor. 
BIS may remove an entity from the Entity List if it is no longer 
engaged in the activities described in paragraph (b) of this section 
and is unlikely to engage in such activities in the future, or if it is 
no longer at significant risk of acting contrary to the national 
security or foreign policy interests of the United States as described 
therein. BIS may modify the license exception limitations and license 
application review policies that apply to a particular entity to 
implement the policies of this section. BIS will implement the 
provisions of

[[Page 61974]]

this section in accordance with the decisions of the End-User Review 
Committee or, if appropriate in a particular case, in accordance with 
the decisions of the body to which the End-User Review Committee 
decision is escalated. The End-User Review Committee will follow the 
procedures set forth in supplement no. 5 to this part.
    (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 when such a release is for a ``standards-related 
activity:'' ``software'' that is classified under ECCN 5D002.b or 
5D002.c.1 (for equipment specified in ECCN 5A002.a and 5A002.c only); 
``technology'' that is classified under ECCN 5E002 (for equipment 
specified in ECCN 5A002.a, .b and .c); and ``technology'' for software 
controlled under ECCN 5D002.b or .c.1 (for equipment specified in ECCN 
5A002.a and .c only).
    (2) Entity List Foreign-Direct Product (FDP) license requirements, 
review policy, and license exceptions. You may not, without a license 
or license exception, reexport, export from abroad, or transfer (in-
country) any foreign-produced item subject to the EAR pursuant to Sec.  
734.9(e) of the EAR to any end user described in Sec.  734.9(e)(2) of 
the EAR. All license exceptions described in part 740 of the EAR are 
available for foreign-produced items that are subject to this license 
requirement if all terms and conditions of the applicable license 
exception are met and the restrictions in Sec.  740.2 do not apply. The 
sophistication and capabilities of technology in items is a factor in 
license application review; license applications for foreign-produced 
items subject to a license requirement by this paragraph (a)(2) that 
are capable of supporting the ``development'' or ``production'' of 
telecom systems, equipment and devices below the 5G level (e.g., 4G, 
3G) will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
    (b) Criteria for revising the Entity List. Entities for which there 
is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable 
facts, that the entity has been involved, is involved, or poses a 
significant risk of being or becoming involved in activities that are 
contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the 
United States and those acting on behalf of such entities may be added 
to the Entity List pursuant to this section. An entity may pose a 
significant risk through certain circumstances that may be outside of 
its own control. Such circumstances that may place an entity at 
significant risk include situations involving a sustained lack of 
cooperation by a host government authority, for example, by preventing 
an end-use check from being conducted, that effectively prevents BIS 
from determining compliance with the EAR. This section may not be used 
to place on the Entity List any party to which exports or reexports 
require a license pursuant to Sec.  744.8, Sec.  744.12, Sec.  744.13, 
Sec.  744.14, or Sec.  744.18. This section may not be used to place 
any U.S. person, as defined in Sec.  772.1 of the EAR, on the Entity 
List. Paragraphs (b)(1) through (5) of this section provide an 
illustrative list of activities that could be or represent a 
significant risk of being contrary to the national security or foreign 
policy interests of the United States.
    (1) Supporting persons engaged in acts of terror.
    (2) Actions that could enhance the military capability of, or the 
ability to support terrorism of governments that have been designated 
by the Secretary of State as having repeatedly provided support for 
acts of international terrorism.
    (3) Transferring, developing, servicing, repairing or producing 
conventional weapons in a manner that is contrary to United States 
national security or foreign policy interests or enabling such 
transfer, service, repair, development, or production by supplying 
parts, components, technology, or financing for such activity.
    (4) Prevention of the accomplishment of an end use check conducted 
by or on behalf of BIS or the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls of 
the Department of State by:
    (i) The entity precluding access to; refusing to provide 
information about; or providing false or misleading information about 
parties to the transaction or the item to be checked. The conduct in 
this example includes: expressly refusing to permit a check; providing 
false or misleading information; or engaging in dilatory or evasive 
conduct that effectively prevents the check from occurring or makes the 
check inaccurate or useless. A nexus between the conduct of the party 
to be listed and the failure to produce a complete, accurate and useful 
check is required, even though an express refusal by the party to be 
listed is not required; or
    (ii) A sustained lack of cooperation by the host government to 
schedule and facilitate the completion of an end-use check of entities 
identified on the Unverified List pursuant to Sec.  744.15, resulting 
in sufficient concern such that the End-User Review Committee believes 
that prior review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) 
involving the entity and the possible imposition of license conditions 
or license denial enhance BIS's ability to prevent violations of the 
EAR.
    (5) Engaging in conduct that poses a risk of violating the EAR when 
such conduct raises sufficient concern that the End-User Review 
Committee believes that prior review of exports, reexports, or 
transfers (in-country) involving the party and the possible imposition 
of license conditions or license denial enhances BIS's ability to 
prevent violations of the EAR.
    (c) Additional prohibition on persons informed by BIS. BIS may 
inform persons, either individually by specific notice or through 
amendment to the EAR, that a license is required for:
    (1) A specific export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) because 
there is an unacceptable risk that the export, reexport, or transfer 
(in-country) is intended to circumvent the license requirement imposed 
on an entity listed in supplement no. 4 to this part; or
    (2) The export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of specified 
items to a certain party because there is an unacceptable risk that the 
party is acting as an agent, front, or shell company for an entity 
listed in supplement no. 4 to this part, or is otherwise assisting that 
listed entity in circumventing the license requirement set forth in 
that entity's entry in supplement no. 4 to this part; or
    (3) The export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) of specified 
items to a certain party because there is reasonable

[[Page 61975]]

cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, that the 
entity has been involved, is involved, or poses a significant risk of 
being or becoming involved in activities that are contrary to the 
national security or foreign policy interests of the United States and 
those acting on behalf of such entity. Specific notice will be given 
only by, or at the direction of, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for 
Export Administration. When such notice is provided orally, it will be 
followed by written notice within two working days signed by the Deputy 
Assistant Secretary for Export Administration or the Deputy Assistant 
Secretary's designee. The specific notice will include the license 
requirement, limitations on use of license exceptions, and license 
application review policy with which that exporter, re-exporter, or 
transferor must comply pursuant to this paragraph (c)(3). The ERC may 
add such entities to the Entity List in supplement no. 4 to this part.
