SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to part 744 of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)) identifies entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, 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 (15 CFR parts 730-774) impose additional license requirements on, and limit the availability of most license exceptions for, exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to listed entities. 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 notice adding entities 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 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 all decisions to remove or modify an entry by unanimous vote.

ERC Entity List Decisions

Additions to the Entity List

Under § 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) of the EAR, entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, have been involved, are involved, or pose 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 persons, may be added to the Entity List.

This rule implements the decision of the ERC to add seventeen entities, under a total of nineteen entries, to the Entity List; one of these entities is being added under three entries. The seventeen entities being added are located in Armenia, Belgium, Canada, China, Georgia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, the Netherlands, Russia, the U.A.E. and the U.K. The seventeen entities are being added based on § 744.11 (License requirements that apply to entities acting contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States) of the EAR. The nineteen entries consist of two entries located in Armenia, two entries located in Belgium, one entry located in Canada, four entries located in China, one entry located in Georgia, one entry located in Hong Kong, one entry located in Malaysia, one entry located in the Netherlands, one entry located in Russia, four entries located in the U.A.E., and one entry located in the U.K.

The ERC reviewed and applied § 744.11(b) in making the determination to add these seventeen entities to the Entity List. Under that section, entities for which there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts, have been involved, are involved, or pose 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, along with those acting on behalf of such persons, may be added to the Entity List. Paragraphs (b)(1) through (b)(5) of § 744.11 provide an illustrative list of activities that could be contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United States. For each of the seventeen entities described below, the ERC made the requisite determination under the standard set forth in § 744.11(b).

Pursuant to § 744.11(b), the ERC determined to add Al Merikh General Trading, an Emirati entity, to the Entity List, because Al Merikh General Trading has transshipped U.S.-origin items to sanctioned destinations without the required authorizations; to add four Chinese entities, China General Nuclear Power Group, China General Nuclear Power Corporation (CGNPC), China Nuclear Power Technology Research Institute Co. Ltd., and Suzhou Nuclear Power Research Institute Co. Ltd., because each of these four Chinese entities has engaged in or enabled efforts to acquire advanced U.S. nuclear technology and material for diversion to military uses in China; and to add Corad Technology Limited, a Hong Kong entity, because Corad Technology Limited has been involved in the sale of U.S. technology to Iran's military and space programs, to front companies of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea), and to subordinate entities of China's Government and its defense industry. The ERC also determined to add two Belgian entities, Industrial Metals and Commodities and Nicolas Kaiga; three Emirati entities, Emirates Alloys, Super Alloys, and Saeed Valadbaigi; one Malaysian entity, NBH Industries; and one Georgian entity, Georgia Petrochemical and Aviatech, to the Entity List, because each of these seven entities unlawfully attempted to procure and divert export-controlled aluminum tubing via Malaysia to Iran. Nicolas Kaiga also has been added under entries for the Netherlands and the U.K., in addition to Belgium.

Pursuant to § 744.11(b), the ERC also determined to add Kelvo Inc., a Canadian entity, to the Entity List, because the sole proprietor of Kelvo Inc. engaged in unlawful reexports from Canada to Russia and Armenia of items subject to the EAR and controlled on the Commerce Control List (CCL) for national security reasons; to add two Armenian entities, Markel Closed Joint Stock Company (Markel CJSC) and Yerevan Telecommunications Research Institute (YETRI) Closed Joint Stock Company (CJSC), because YETRI CJSC has obtained CCL items that were reexported without the required BIS licenses, and the person who is both Executive Director of YETRI CJSC and President of Markel CJSC has been engaged in a business relationship with a sanctioned Iranian organization; and to add one Russian entity Joint Stock Company Kaluga Scientific Research Institute of Radio Engineering (KNIRTI), because KNIRTI is a majority-owned subsidiary of the sanctioned Russian entity Joint-Stock Company Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies (a.k.a., KRET), and is subject to existing designations by the Department of the Treasury, pursuant to Executive Order 13661.

Pursuant to § 744.11(b), the ERC determined that the conduct of these seventeen entities raises sufficient concerns that prior review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of all items subject to the EAR involving these entities, and the possible imposition of license conditions or license denials on shipments to the persons, will enhance BIS's ability to prevent violations of the EAR.

For the seventeen entities added to the Entity List in this final rule, BIS imposes a license requirement for all items subject to the EAR and a license review policy of presumption of denial. The license requirement applies to any transaction in which items subject to the EAR are to be exported, reexported, or transferred (in-country) to any of these entities. The acronym “a.k.a.” (also known as) is used in entries on the Entity List to identify aliases, thereby assisting exporters, reexporters, and transferors in identifying entities on the Entity List.

This final rule adds the following seventeen entities, under a total of nineteen entries, to the Entity List:

Armenia

  • Markel Closed Joint Stock Company (Markel CJSC); and
  • Yerevan Telecommunications Research Institute (YETRI) Closed Joint Stock Company (CJSC).

Belgium

  • Industrial Metals and Commodities; and
  • Nicolas Kaiga, including one alias (Nicholas Kaiga).

  • Super Alloys; and
  • Saeed Valadbaigi, including two aliases (Saeed Valad; and Saeed Baigi).

United Kingdom

  • Nicolas Kaiga, including one alias (Nicholas Kaiga).

Modification to the Entity List

This final rule implements the decision of the ERC to modify twenty-three existing entries. The modifications consist of revising seventeen entries under China, four entries under Hong Kong, and two entries under Russia. The modifications to the entities under China consist of revising five entries, and, to reflect changes to ten separate entities, removing the entries for these ten entities and adding in their place twelve new entries. The final rule adds twelve entries under the destination of China as part of the modifications of these ten entries because one entry that is being modified is being removed and in its place three separate entities are being added to reflect a reorganization that occurred at that entity whereby the single entity has now become three distinct entities.

The modifications to twenty-three existing entries is described further as follows:

Savings Clause

Shipments of items removed from eligibility for a License Exception or for export or reexport without a license (NLR) as a result of this regulatory action that were en route aboard a carrier to a port of export or reexport, on August 14, 2019, pursuant to actual orders for export or reexport to a foreign destination, may proceed to that destination under the previous eligibility for a License Exception or export or reexport without a license (NLR).

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). ECRA, as amended (50 U.S.C. 4801-4852), provides the legal basis for BIS's principal authorities and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this rule. As set forth in Sec. 1768 of ECRA, all delegations, rules, regulations, orders, determinations, licenses, or other forms of administrative action that have been made, issued, conducted, or allowed to become effective under the Export Administration Act of 1979 (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.) and Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002), as amended by Executive Order 13637 of March 8, 2013, 78 FR 16129 (March 13, 2013), and as extended by the Notice of August 8, 2018, 83 FR 39871 (August 13, 2018)), 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 rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of Executive Order 12866. This rule is not an Executive Order 13771 regulatory action because this rule is not significant under 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 collections previously approved by OMB under control number 0694-0088, Simplified Network Application Processing System, which includes, among other things, license applications, and carries a burden estimate of 42.5 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. Total burden hours associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694-0088 are not expected to increase as a result of this rule. You may send comments regarding the collection of information associated with this rule, including suggestions for reducing the burden, to Jasmeet K. Seehra, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), by email to Jasmeet_K._Seehra@omb.eop.gov, or by fax to (202) 395-7285.

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 (50 U.S.C. 4801-4852), which was included in the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, 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. This action involves the removal of three entities from the Entity List. Removals from the Entity List involve interagency deliberation and result from review of public and non-public sources, including, where applicable, sensitive law enforcement information and classified information, and the measurement of such information against the Entity List removal criteria. This information is reviewed according to the procedures and criteria for evaluating removal requests from the Entity List, as set forth in 15 CFR 744.11, 15 CFR 744.16, and 15 CFR part 744, Supplement No. 5. For reasons of national security, BIS is not at liberty to provide to the public detailed information on which the ERC relies to make the decisions to remove these entities. In addition, the information included in a removal request is exchanged between the applicant and the ERC, which by law (§ 1761(h) of the ECRA), BIS is restricted from sharing with the public. Moreover, removal requests from the Entity List may contain confidential business information that is necessary for the extensive review conducted by the ERC.

6. 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.
