ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
Additions to the Entity List
In this rule, the Bureau of
Industry and Security (BIS) amends the
Export Administration Regulations
(EAR) by adding 13 entities to the Entity
List under the destinations of Russia
(12), and Uzbekistan (1). These entities
have been determined by the U.S.
Government to be acting contrary to the
national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States.
DATES: This rule is effective November
2, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with RULES1
Background
The Entity List (supplement no. 4 to
part 744 of the 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, pursuant to § 744.11(b). The EAR
impose additional license requirements
on, and limit the availability of, most
license exceptions for exports,
reexports, and transfers (in-country)
when a listed entity is a party to the
transaction. The license review policy
for each listed entity is identified in the
‘‘License Review Policy’’ column on the
Entity List, and the impact on the
availability of license exceptions is
described in the relevant Federal
Register document that added the entity
to the Entity List. The Bureau of
Industry and Security (BIS) places
entities on the Entity List pursuant to
parts 744 (Control Policy: End-User and
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:25 Nov 03, 2023
Jkt 262001
The ERC determined to add Aeroscan
Limited Liability Company;
Alfakomponent; BIC-Inform LLC; Hartis
DV LLC; ID Solution LLC; OOO OMP;
Orelmetallpolimer LLC; Spel LLC;
Spetstehnotreyd LLC; STC Orion LLC;
Technical Center Windeq LLC; and
ZALA Aero Group, all under the
destination of Russia; and Mvizion LLC,
under the destination of Uzbekistan, to
the Entity List. These entities are added
for supporting Russia’s military through
the procurement, development, and
proliferation of Russian unmanned
aerial vehicles (UAVs). This activity is
contrary to the national security and
foreign policy interests of the United
States under § 744.11(b) and these
entities qualify as military end users
under §§ 744.21(e), 744.21(g), and
746.8(b) of the EAR. These entities are
receiving a footnote 3 designation
because the ERC has determined that
they are Russian or Belarusian ‘military
end users’ pursuant to § 744.21. A
footnote 3 designation subjects these
entities to the Russia/Belarus-Military
End User Foreign Direct Product (FDP)
rule, detailed in § 734.9(g). The entities
are added with a license requirement for
all items subject to the EAR and a
license review policy of denial for all
items subject to the EAR apart from food
and medicine designated as EAR99,
which will be reviewed on a case-bycase basis.
For the reasons described above, this
final rule adds the following 13 entities,
including aliases where appropriate, to
the Entity List:
Russia
• Aeroscan Limited Liability
Company;
• Alfakomponent;
• BIC-Inform LLC;
• Hartis DV LLC;
• ID Solution LLC;
• OOO OMP;

Savings Clause
For the changes being made in this
final rule, shipments of items removed
from eligibility for a License Exception
or export, reexport, or transfer (incountry) without a license (NLR) as a
result of this regulatory action that were
en route aboard a carrier to a port of
export, reexport, or transfer (in-country),
on November 2, 2023, pursuant to actual
orders for export, reexport, or transfer
(in-country) to or within a foreign
destination, may proceed to that
destination under the previous
eligibility for a License Exception or
export, reexport, or transfer (in-country)
without a license (NLR) before
December 4, 2023. Any such items not
actually exported, reexported or
transferred (in-country) before midnight,
on November 2, 2023, require a license
in accordance with this final rule.
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.
Rulemaking Requirements
1. This rule has been determined to be
not 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 regulation
involves an information collection
approved by OMB under control
number 0694–0088, Simplified Network
Application Processing System. BIS
does not anticipate a change to the
burden hours associated with this
collection as a result of this rule.
Information regarding the collection,
including all supporting materials, can
be accessed at https://www.reginfo.gov/
public/do/PRAMain.

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 213 / Monday, November 6, 2023 / Rules and Regulations
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 the
Export Control Reform Act of 2018, this
action is exempt from the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C.
553) requirements for notice of
proposed rulemaking, opportunity for
public participation, and delay in
effective date.
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.

U.S.C. 553(b)). This provision
authorizes an agency to issue a rule
without prior notice and opportunity to
comment when the agency for good
cause finds that those procedures are
‘‘impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest.’’ Under 5 U.S.C.
PO 00000

553(b)(B), the Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for not publishing a
notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM)
with respect to this rule because it is
impracticable and contrary to the public
interest. This safety zone must be
established by November 3, 2023, to
provide for the safety of life on the
navigable waters during a helicopter
operation, and we lack sufficient time to
provide a reasonable comment period
and then consider those comments
before issuing this rule. Vessels inside
of the safety zone have the potential of
getting hit by debris from the helicopter.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. Delaying the effective date of
this rule would be impracticable and
contrary to the public interest because
action is needed by November 3, 2023,
to ensure the safety of the of life on the
navigable waters during a helicopter
operation.
III. Legal Authority and Need for Rule
The Coast Guard is issuing this rule
under authority in 46 U.S.C. 70034. The
Captain of the Port Pittsburgh (COTP)
has determined that potential hazards
associated with a helicopter operation
on November 3 through November 6,
November 11 through November 12,
December 2 through December 3, 2023,
and January 8 through January 22, 2024,
will be a safety concern for anyone on
the Ohio River from mile markers 2.5 to
mile marker 3 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. The
purpose of this rule is to ensure safety
of the participant, vessels, and the

[Docket No. 231101-0257]
RIN 0694-AJ44
Entity List Additions
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In this rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends
the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding 13 entities to
the Entity List under the destinations of Russia (12), and Uzbekistan
(1). These entities have been determined by the U.S. Government to be
acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of
the United States.
DATES: This rule is effective November 2, 2023.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Chair, End-User Review Committee,
Office of the Assistant Secretary for Export Administration, Bureau of
Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, Phone: (202) 482-5991,
Email: [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Entity List (supplement no. 4 to part 744 of the 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, pursuant to Sec.
744.11(b). The EAR impose additional license requirements on, and limit
the availability of, most license exceptions for exports, reexports,
and transfers (in-country) when a listed entity is a party to the
transaction. The license review policy for each listed entity is
identified in the ``License Review Policy'' column on the Entity List,
and the impact on the availability of license exceptions is described
in the relevant Federal Register document that added the entity to the
Entity List. The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) places entities
on the Entity List pursuant to parts 744 (Control Policy: End-User and
End-Use Based) and 746 (Embargoes and Other Special Controls) of the
EAR.
The End-User Review Committee (ERC), composed of representatives of
the Departments of Commerce (Chair), State, Defense, Energy and, where
appropriate, the Treasury, makes all decisions regarding additions to,
removals from, or other modifications to the Entity List. The ERC makes
all decisions to add an entry to the Entity List by majority vote and
makes all decisions to remove or modify an entry by unanimous vote.
Entity List Decisions
Additions to the Entity List
The ERC determined to add Aeroscan Limited Liability Company;
Alfakomponent; BIC-Inform LLC; Hartis DV LLC; ID Solution LLC; OOO OMP;
Orelmetallpolimer LLC; Spel LLC; Spetstehnotreyd LLC; STC Orion LLC;
Technical Center Windeq LLC; and ZALA Aero Group, all under the
destination of Russia; and Mvizion LLC, under the destination of
Uzbekistan, to the Entity List. These entities are added for supporting
Russia's military through the procurement, development, and
proliferation of Russian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This activity
is contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of
the United States under Sec. 744.11(b) and these entities qualify as
military end users under Sec. Sec. 744.21(e), 744.21(g), and 746.8(b)
of the EAR. These entities are receiving a footnote 3 designation
because the ERC has determined that they are Russian or Belarusian
`military end users' pursuant to Sec. 744.21. A footnote 3 designation
subjects these entities to the Russia/Belarus-Military End User Foreign
Direct Product (FDP) rule, detailed in Sec. 734.9(g). The entities are
added with a license requirement for all items subject to the EAR and a
license review policy of denial for all items subject to the EAR apart
from food and medicine designated as EAR99, which will be reviewed on a
case-by-case basis.
For the reasons described above, this final rule adds the following
13 entities, including aliases where appropriate, to the Entity List:
Russia
Aeroscan Limited Liability Company;
Alfakomponent;
BIC-Inform LLC;
Hartis DV LLC;
ID Solution LLC;
OOO OMP;
Orelmetallpolimer LLC;
Spel LLC;
Spetstehnotreyd LLC;
STC Orion LLC;
Technical Center Windeq LLC; and
ZALA Aero Group.
Uzbekistan
Mvizion LLC.
Savings Clause
For the changes being made in this final rule, shipments of items
removed from eligibility for a License Exception or export, reexport,
or transfer (in-country) without a license (NLR) as a result of this
regulatory action that were en route aboard a carrier to a port of
export, reexport, or transfer (in-country), on November 2, 2023,
pursuant to actual orders for export, reexport, or transfer (in-
country) to or within a foreign destination, may proceed to that
destination under the previous eligibility for a License Exception or
export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) without a license (NLR)
before December 4, 2023. Any such items not actually exported,
reexported or transferred (in-country) before midnight, on November 2,
2023, require a license in accordance with this final rule.
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.
Rulemaking Requirements
1. This rule has been determined to be not 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 regulation involves an
information collection approved by OMB under control number 0694-0088,
Simplified Network Application Processing System. BIS does not
anticipate a change to the burden hours associated with this collection
as a result of this rule. Information regarding the collection,
including all supporting materials, can be accessed at https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.
[[Page 76129]]
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 the Export Control Reform Act of
2018, this action is exempt from the Administrative Procedure Act (5
U.S.C. 553) requirements for notice of proposed rulemaking, opportunity
for public participation, and delay in effective date.
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.
