Clarifications of Availability and Expansion of Restrictions on
Availability of License Exception Strategic Trade Authorization Under
the Export Administration Regulations
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In this rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS)
proposes to amend the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to
clarify and expand restrictions on the availability of License
Exception Strategic Trade Authorization (License Exception STA or STA)
for the export, reexport and transfer (in-country) of certain items
controlled under the EAR. Specifically, BIS proposes to clarify the
``Special Conditions for STA'' paragraph in certain Category 9 Export
Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) on the Commerce Control List to
refer exporters to the limitations set forth in the EAR. Also,
continuing its efforts to improve export controls and refine License
Exception STA, BIS proposes to further restrict the availability of
License Exception STA for certain technology controlled under ECCNs
2E003.f and 1E001. This rule also proposes related conforming
amendments in License Exception STA and in affected ECCNs.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In a final rule published on June 16, 2011 (76 FR 35276) (June 16
rule), BIS established License Exception Strategic Trade Authorization
(License Exception STA or STA) in part 740 (License Exceptions) of the
Export Administration Regulations (EAR), as part of the initial effort
to reform and modernize U.S. export controls. License Exception STA is
set forth in Sec. 740.20 of the EAR and authorizes exports, reexports,
and transfers (in-country) of certain specified items to STA-eligible
destinations, including the release of certain software source code and
technology, as well as certain ``600 series'' items. There are two
groups of STA-eligible destinations: 37 destinations that are included
in
[[Page 58616]]
``Country Group A:5'' and are eligible under Sec. 740.20(c)(1), and
eight destinations included in ``Country Group A:6'' and eligible under
Sec. 740.20(c)(2). These country group listings appear in Supplement
No. 1 to Part 740 (Country Groups). The destinations in these two
country groups pose low risk that those items will be used for a
purpose that BIS license requirements are designed to prevent. The
requirements and conditions for use of License Exception STA include
the creation and exchange by the parties to the transaction of
notifications and statements designed to provide assurance against
diversion of such items to other destinations.
Section 740.20(b) of the EAR sets forth various prohibitions and
limitations on the use of License Exception STA, including in Sec.
740.20(b)(2)(viii), which prohibits use of STA, regardless of
destination, for certain Category 9 export control classification
numbers (ECCNs). Certain software and technology controlled under ECCNs
9D001, 9D002, 9D004, 9E001, 9E002, and 9E003 are among the Category 9
items to which this prohibition applies. However, as a result of text
adopted in the June 16 rule in response to certain public comments, the
``Special Conditions for STA'' paragraphs of these Category 9 ECCNs are
not as comprehensive as Sec. 740.20(b)(2)(viii), which potentially
confuses exporters. More specifically, these paragraphs state that STA
eligibility for certain software and technology controlled under the
ECCNs is excluded to destinations in Country Group A:6, while the
controlling text of Sec. 740.20(b)(2)(viii) excludes STA eligibility
for these items regardless of destination. In this rule, BIS proposes
to clarify the ``Special Conditions for STA'' paragraphs included under
ECCNs 9D001, 9D002, 9D004, 9E001, 9E002 and 9E003 in order to reduce
the possibility of confusion. The clarified text, which does not change
license requirements or restrictions, would direct exporters,
reexporters, and in-country transferors to the Category 9 limitations
on the use of STA set forth in Sec. 740.20(b)(2)(viii), when
determining STA availability for the export, reexport and in-country
transfer of certain items controlled under those ECCNs.
The June 16 rule informed the public that BIS would undertake
further review regarding whether technology controlled under ECCN
2E003.f related to the application of certain coatings is, in whole or
in part, appropriate for exclusion from License Exception STA. See 76
FR 35276, 35278 (6/16/2011). ECCN 2E003.f controls technology for the
application of inorganic overlay coatings or inorganic surface
modification coatings to non-electronic substrates by certain coating
processes. The coating processes specified in this ECCN are critical to
the performance of gas turbine engine hot section parts, but are also
used for other manufacturing processes, such as optics. The operating
environment of engine hot section parts and components is above the
actual melting point of the base alloy used to cast these parts;
however, the alloy does not melt due to three key technologies: Casting
(controlled in ECCN 9E003), cooling (controlled in ECCNs 9E001 and
9E003), and coatings (controlled in ECCNs 2E003.f and 9E003). While hot
section technologies (controlled for Significant Items (SI) reasons)
require a license for export to destinations worldwide (except Canada)
and are not eligible for export under license exceptions, coating
technologies controlled in ECCN 2E003.f are not controlled for SI
reasons and are currently eligible for export to destinations in
Country Group A:5 under License Exception STA. Recognizing that the
scope of 2E003.f coating technology includes technology with sensitive
industrial applications, this proposed rule would expand restrictions
on the use of License Exception STA for ECCN 2E003.f technology, when
the technology is used for the application of inorganic overlay
coatings on gas turbine engine combustors, or turbine blades, vanes or
``tip shrouds'' by adding a new restriction in paragraph (b)(2)(ix) of
Sec. 740.20.
During this review of coating technology, inconsistencies were also
identified in the eligibility of License Exceptions STA and Technology
and Software Under Restriction (TSR) (see: Sec. 740.6 of the EAR) for
``development'' and ``production'' technology in ECCN 1E001 that has
applications in the ``development'' and ``production'' of hot section
gas turbine parts and components as well as advanced military composite
structures. The Special Conditions for STA paragraph in ECCN 1E001
currently prohibits the use of License Exception STA to ship or
transmit ``technology'' for the ``development'' or ``production'' of
equipment and materials specified by ECCNs 1A002, 1C001, 1C007.c or .d,
1C010.c or .d to any of the destinations listed in Country Group A:6.
Some of the technology for which License Exception STA may not be used,
however, is eligible for export under License Exception TSR not just to
destinations in Country Group A:6, but to a broader universe of
destinations in Country Group B.
In addition, current STA eligibility with regard to Country Group
A:6 destinations for 1E001 technology with applications in hot section
gas turbine parts is inconsistent with Sec. 740.20(b)(2)(viii)'s
prohibition on the use of STA with regard to all destinations for hot
section technology in Category 9. Moreover, the exclusions from License
Exceptions STA and TSR in ECCN 1E001 do not list ECCN 1E001 technology
related to materials in Category 1 that are critical to the
``development'' or ``production'' of advanced composite aircraft
structures--specifically, ``development'' or ``production'' technology
for high temperature resins controlled under ECCNs 1C008 or 1C009 and
fibers or fibers pre-impregnated with a resin (prepregs) controlled in
ECCNs 1C007 or 1C010.
This rule proposes to exclude License Exception STA eligibility to
all destinations for technology described by ECCN 1E001 for the
``development'' or ``production'' of equipment and materials specified
by ECCNs 1A002, 1C001, 1C007.c, 1C008.a.1, 1C009.b, and 1C010.b, .c or
.d. This rule also proposes to correct the inconsistencies between
License Exceptions STA and TSR and to exclude these same technologies
from eligibility for License Exception TSR.
BIS also proposes to make conforming amendments throughout License
Exception STA Sec. 740.20(b) and in affected ECCNs.
BIS seeks public comments on the amendments to the EAR proposed in
this 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. 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, and other advantages; distributive impacts;
and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the
[[Page 58617]]
importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs,
of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This proposed rule
has been designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' although not
economically significant, under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866.
2. This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications
as that term is defined in Executive Order 13132.
3. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is
required to respond to, nor may a person be made 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.
BIS expects the total burden hours associated with this collection
to increase if this proposed rule is adopted in final form, because the
proposal limits availability of License Exception STA. Transactions no
longer eligible for this license exception will require licenses.
Trying to estimate the number of licenses is difficult because exports
of intangible technology are not reported as Electronic Export
Information, limiting the broad availability of transaction data. This
proposal with request for comments should help get input from the
public to inform this issue. The request for comments, including
supporting relevant data, on this rule is intended to inform further
review of the proposed amendments, if they were to be issued in final
form.
Any comments regarding the collection of information associated
with this rule, including suggestions for reducing the burden, may be
sent to Jasmeet K. Seehra, OMB, online at https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.

(3) Limitations on the use of STA that are specific to ``600
series'' items. (i) License Exception STA may not be used for any ``600
series'' items identified in the relevant ECCN as not being eligible
for STA.
(ii) License Exception STA may be used to export, reexport, and

A:5, whether non-governmental or governmental, and, for natural
persons, if they are nationals of a country listed in Country Group A:5
(See Supplement No. 1 to part 740 of the EAR) or the United States, and
if:
(A) The ultimate end user for such items is the armed forces,
police, paramilitary, law enforcement, customs, correctional, fire, or
a search and rescue agency of a government of one of the countries
listed in Country Group A:5, or the United States Government;
(B) For the ``development,'' ``production,'' operation,
installation, maintenance, repair, overhaul, or refurbishing of an item
in one of the countries listed in Country Group A:5 or the United
States that will be for one, or more, of the following purposes:
(1) Ultimately to be used by any such government agencies in one of
the countries listed in Country Group A:5 or the United States
Government; or
(2) Sent to a person in the United States and not for subsequent
export under Sec. 740.9(b)(1) (License Exception TMP for items moving
in transit through the United States); or
(C) The United States Government has otherwise authorized the
ultimate end use, the license or other authorization is in effect, and
the consignee verifies in writing that such authorization exists and
has provided the license or other approval identifier to the exporter,
reexporter or transferor (as applicable).
(iii) License Exception STA may not be used to export, reexport, or
transfer (in-country) end items described in ECCN 0A606.a, ECCN
8A609.a, ECCN 8A620.a or .b, or ECCN 9A610.a until after BIS has
approved their export under STA under the procedures set out in
paragraph (g) of this section.
(iv) License Exception STA may not be used to export, reexport, or
transfer (in-country) ``600 series'' items if they are ``600 Series
Major Defense Equipment'' and the value of such items in the contract
requiring their export exceeds $25,000,000.
Note 1 to paragraphs (b)(2) and (3): Any export, reexport, or
transfer (in-country) originally authorized under License Exception STA
must stay within the scope of the original authorization. For example,
for ``600 series'' items authorized under License Exception STA, such
items must be provided to an eligible ultimate end user, such as a
Country Group A:5 military, to stay in compliance with the original
authorization. This requirement for the ``600 series'' is referred to
as `completing the chain,' meaning regardless of how many times the
``600 series'' item is transferred (in-country) or whether the ``600
series'' item is incorporated into higher level assemblies or other
items, the ``600 series'' item must ultimately be provided to an
eligible ultimate end user, or be otherwise authorized under the EAR.
This applies regardless of whether the ``600 series'' item has been
incorporated into a foreign-made item that may no longer be ``subject
to the EAR.'' Because the other items eligible for authorization under
License Exception STA (9x515 and other non-600 series ECCNs) do not
include the ``600 series'' requirements specific to the ultimate end
user, this `completing the chain' concept does not apply to 9x515 and
other non-600 series ECCNs authorized under License Exception STA.
However, the original export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) made
under License Exception STA for 9x515 and other non-600 series ECCNs
still must comply with the original authorization--meaning the terms
and conditions of License Exception STA.

Technical Note to Table on Deposition Techniques: Processes
specified in Column 1 of the Table are defined as follows:
a. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is an overlay coating or
surface modification coating process wherein a metal, alloy,
``composite'', dielectric or ceramic is deposited upon a heated
substrate. Gaseous reactants are decomposed or combined in the
vicinity of a substrate resulting in the deposition of the desired
elemental, alloy or compound material on the substrate. Energy for
this decomposition or chemical reaction process may be provided by
the heat of the substrate, a glow discharge plasma, or ``laser''
irradiation.
Note 1: CVD includes the following processes: Directed gas flow
out-of-pack deposition, pulsating CVD, controlled nucleation thermal
decomposition (CNTD), plasma enhanced or plasma assisted CVD
processes.
Note 2: Pack denotes a substrate immersed in a powder mixture.
Note 3: The gaseous reactants used in the out-of-pack process
are produced using the same basic reactions and parameters as the
pack cementation process, except that the substrate to be coated is
not in contact with the powder mixture.
b. Thermal Evaporation-Physical Vapor Deposition (TE-PVD) is an
overlay coating process conducted in a vacuum with a pressure less
than 0.1 Pa wherein a source of thermal energy is used to vaporize
the coating material. This process results in the condensation, or
deposition, of the evaporated species onto appropriately positioned
substrates. The addition of gases to the vacuum chamber during the
coating process to synthesize compound coatings is an ordinary
modification of the process. The use of ion or electron beams, or
plasma, to activate or assist the coating's deposition is also a
common modification in this technique. The use of monitors to
provide in-process measurement of optical characteristics and
thickness of coatings can be a feature of these processes. Specific
TE-PVD processes are as follows:
1. Electron Beam PVD uses an electron beam to heat and evaporate
the material which forms the coating;
2. Ion Assisted Resistive Heating PVD employs electrically
resistive heating sources in combination with impinging ion beam(s)
to produce a controlled and uniform flux of evaporated coating
species;
3. ``Laser'' Vaporization uses either pulsed or continuous wave
``laser'' beams to vaporize the material which forms the coating;
4. Cathodic Arc Deposition employs a consumable cathode of the
material which forms the coating and has an arc discharge
established on the surface by a momentary contact of a ground
trigger. Controlled motion of arcing erodes the cathode surface
creating a highly ionized plasma. The anode can be either a cone
attached to the periphery of the cathode, through an insulator, or
the chamber. Substrate biasing is used for non line-of-sight
deposition.
Note: This definition does not include random cathodic arc
deposition with non-biased substrates.
5. Ion Plating is a special modification of a general TE-PVD
process in which a plasma or an ion source is used to ionize the
species to be deposited, and a negative bias is applied to the
substrate in order to facilitate the extraction of the species from
the plasma. The introduction of reactive species, evaporation of
solids within the process chamber, and the use of monitors to
provide in-process measurement of optical characteristics and
thicknesses of coatings are ordinary modifications of the process.
c. Pack Cementation is a surface modification coating or overlay
coating process wherein a substrate is immersed in a powder mixture
(a pack), that consists of:
1. The metallic powders that are to be deposited (usually
aluminum, chromium, silicon or combinations thereof);
2. An activator (normally a halide salt); and
3. An inert powder, most frequently alumina.
Note: The substrate and powder mixture is contained within a
retort which is heated to between 1,030 K (757 [deg]C) to 1,375 K
(1,102 [deg]C) for sufficient time to deposit the coating.
d. Plasma Spraying is an overlay coating process wherein a gun
(spray torch) which produces and controls a plasma accepts powder or
wire coating materials, melts them and propels them towards a
substrate, whereon an integrally bonded coating is formed. Plasma
spraying constitutes either low pressure plasma spraying or high
velocity plasma spraying.
Note 1: Low pressure means less than ambient atmospheric
pressure.
Note 2: High velocity refers to nozzle-exit gas velocity
exceeding 750 m/s calculated at 293 K (20 [deg] C) at 0.1 MPa.
e. Slurry Deposition is a surface modification coating or
overlay coating process wherein a metallic or ceramic powder with an
organic binder is suspended in a liquid and is applied to a
substrate by either spraying, dipping or painting, subsequent air or
oven drying, and heat treatment to obtain the desired coating.
f. Sputter Deposition is an overlay coating process based on a
momentum transfer phenomenon, wherein positive ions are accelerated
by an electric field towards the surface of a target (coating
material). The kinetic energy of the impacting ions is sufficient to
cause target surface atoms to be released and deposited on an
appropriately positioned substrate.
Note 1: The Table refers only to triode, magnetron or reactive
sputter deposition which is used to increase adhesion of the coating
and rate of deposition and to radio frequency (RF) augmented sputter
deposition used to permit vaporization of non-metallic coating
materials.
Note 2: Low-energy ion beams (less than 5 keV) can be used to
activate the deposition.
g. Ion Implantation is a surface modification coating process in
which the element to be alloyed is ionized, accelerated through a
potential gradient and implanted into the surface region of the
substrate. This includes processes in which ion implantation is
performed simultaneously with electron beam physical vapor
deposition or sputter deposition.
