View Rule

This rule makes additional clarifications and corrections to the interim final rule, Revisions to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR): Control of Spacecraft Systems and Related Items the President Determines No Longer Warrant Control Under the United States Munitions List (USML), that was published on May 13, 2014 (79 FR 27417). The May 13 rule added controls to the EAR for spacecraft and related items that the President has determined no longer warrant control under USML Category XV--spacecraft and related items. The changes included in this final rule are limited to corrections and clarifications to what was included in the interim final rule. This is the second corrections and clarification rule that the Bureau of Industry Security has published for the May 13 rule. These corrections and clarifications were informed by comments received in response to the May 13 rule that included a request for comments. The corrections and clarifications to the May 13 rule are also part of Commerce's retrospective regulatory review plan under Executive Order 13563.
