The TACs are composed of representatives from industry and Government representing diverse points of view on the concerns of the exporting community. Industry representatives are selected from firms producing a broad range of goods, technologies, and software presently controlled for national security, non-proliferation, foreign policy, and short supply reasons or that are proposed for such controls, balanced to the extent possible among large and small firms. TAC members are appointed by the Secretary of Commerce and serve terms of not more than four consecutive years. The membership reflects the Department's commitment to attaining balance and diversity.

Exports of Nuclear Grade Graphite: Change in Licensing Jurisdiction.
The Bureau of Industry and Security is publishing this final rule to make nuclear grade graphite intended for non-nuclear end uses subject to the Export Administration Regulations' licensing jurisdiction, and imposes a license requirement for exports and reexports to destinations of concern for nuclear proliferation reasons. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is discontinuing such jurisdiction in a corresponding final rule published in this same issue of the Federal Register. This transfer of jurisdiction and the imposition of license requirements only to destinations of concern for nuclear proliferation reasons are intended to remove the licensing burden on exporters of nuclear grade graphite intended for non-nuclear end uses to most destinations.
