View Rule

The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) maintains, as part of its Export Administration Regulations (EAR), the Commerce Control List (CCL), which identifies certain of the items subject to Department of Commerce jurisdiction. This correction rule revises the Commerce Country Chart by implementing intended revisions from the Wassenaar Arrangement 2014 Plenary Agreements Implementation and Country Policy Amendments rule published on May 21, 2015 (80 FR 29442) May 21 rule for Argentina and South Africa. The remaining entries from the supplement entitled Items Classified Under ECCNS 0A521, 0B521, 0C521, 0D521 and 0E521 for wing-folding system technology and software, which were inadvertently not removed by the May 21 rule, are removed, because these items were added to another CCL entry in the May 21 rule. This rule also implements the Wassenaar Arrangement (WA) agreement to clarify the control text for rebreathing equipment that was inadvertently not implemented in the May 21 rule. A license requirement note reference indicating jurisdiction is corrected and a related control note clarified in an entry on the CCL controlling space launch vehicles and spacecraft, space buses, spacecraft payloads, etc., as the range of the reference was incorrectly stated in the May 21 rule. The reference concerning jurisdiction for specially designed parts, components, systems and structures, for launch vehicles, launch vehicle propulsion systems or spacecraft is corrected in the CCL entry controlling such items in this rule. In addition to the corrections in this rule, this rule makes one conforming change to remove Fiji from Column D:5 U.S. Arms Embargoed Countries, to be consistent with a Department of State rule on May 29, 2015 (80 FR 30614) that revised the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) to rescind the previous policy of denying arms exports to Fiji.
