        <RULE_TITLE>Revisions to License Exception CTP: Implementation of Presidential Announcement of January 2, 2002</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by revising License Exception CTP to reflect rapid technological advances in computing capability.  This rule implements the President's revision to U.S. export controls on high performance computers (HPCs), announced January 2, 2002. All HPCs continue to be eligible for export to a Computer Tier 1 country under License Exception CTP. Beginning March 3, 2002, HPCs controlled by Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 4A003 with a CTP up to 190,000 Millions of Theoretical Operations per Second (MTOPS) can be exported to Computer Tier 3 countries under License Exception CTP. This revision also applies to electronic assemblies and specially designed components controlled by ECCN 4A003. The NDAA advance notification will not be required because President Bush sent a report to Congress on January 2 to increase the requirement level for NDAA advanced notification for exports to Computer Tier 3 countries of HPCs with a CTP exceeding 190,000 MTOPS. This rule also moves Latvia from Computer Tier 3 to Computer Tier 1, effective May 2, 2002. The President's action will promote our national security, enhance the effectiveness of our export control system and ease unnecessary regulatory burdens on both government and industry.]]></ABSTRACT>
