              EXPORT ADMINISTRATION ACT OF 2001--Continued

  Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, we are entering the period where we make a 
few last minute comments before the 4 o'clock vote regarding the Export 
Administration Act, a process we have been working on for 3 years, a 
law that expired in 1994, and we have had 12 attempts at change since 
that time. The last time the law was revised, people were wearing bell 
bottoms and polyester suits and Jimmy Carter was in office.
  It has been time for a change and recognition of that. I ask 
unanimous consent a letter from the National Association of 
Manufacturers endorsing the bill and recognizing the need for this be 
printed in the Record.

  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:

                                           National Association of


                                                Manufacturers,

                                Washington, DC, September 4, 2001.
     Hon. Thomas A. Daschle,
     Majority Leader, U.S. Senate,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Senator Daschle: I am writing on behalf of the 14,000 
     member companies of the National Association of Manufacturers 
     (NAM) to seek your active support for the passage of S. 149, 
     the Export Administration Act of 2001, without inappropriate 
     amendments that would upset the careful balance in the 
     legislation.
       NAM member companies are some of the leading exporters of 
     high-technology products, including computers, 
     telecommunications equipment semiconductors, chemicals and 
     aerospace equipment. The Export Administration Act, which 
     establishes broad-ranging exports controls on dual-use 
     products and technologies, will have a direct impact on their 
     business activities in countries around the world.
       Our companies take seriously their obligation to protect 
     national security. They devote substantial resources to 
     maintaining internal compliance programs and keeping up to 
     date on the latest export control regulations. In an 
     increasingly competitive global economy, however, Congress 
     should not require excessively burdensome controls that hurt 
     U.S. industry but do little, if anything to enhance national 
     security.
       The NAM supports S. 149, as reported by the Banking 
     Committee, because it provides a good balance between U.S. 
     national security and global trade interests. The bill has 
     strong bipartisan support, having been approved by the 
     Banking Committee on a vote of 19 to 1. President Bush has 
     endorsed S. 149, as reported, and his national security 
     advisor has indicated repeatedly that the Administration 
     opposes amendments which would upset the careful balance 
     achieved in the Banking Committee bill.
       I strongly urge you to play a leadership role in supporting 
     passage of S. 149 and opposing inappropriate amendments.
           Sincerely,
                                                  Jerry Jasmowski,
                                                        President.

  Mr. ENZI. I ask unanimous consent a letter received from many of the 
computer folks, including Dell Computer, IBM Corporation, Intel, 
Hewlett-Packard, NCR, Motorola, and Unisys, pointing out the need for 
this legislation, and the fact they are happy with it, be printed in 
the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in 
the Record, as follows:

                                                September 5, 2001.
     Hon. Michael B. Enzi,
     U.S. Senate, Russell Senate Office Building, Washington, DC.
       Dear Senator: As the Senate begins debate on S. 149, the 
     Export Administration Act of 2001, we strongly urge you to 
     support the bill as it was reported out 19-1 by the Senate 
     Banking Committee and to oppose all restrictive amendments 
     during its floor consideration. Passage of S. 149 will 
     represent an important step forward in the development of an 
     export control system that more effectively accounts for 
     modern developments in technology and international market 
     conditions, while protecting national security.
       S. 149 enjoys broad, bipartisan support in Congress, as 
     well as the endorsement of President Bush and his national 
     security team, which opposes amendments that would upset the 
     careful balance achieved in the Banking Committee bill.
       Among S. 149's many provisions is one of critical 
     importance to the U.S. computer industry. Section 702(k) 
     would eliminate those provisions in the National Defense 
     Authorization Act for 1998 that lock the President into using 
     a specific metric, known as MTOPS (millions of theoretical 
     operations per second), to establish export control 
     thresholds for computers. Section 702(k) would not eliminate 
     current restrictions on computer exports, but would give the 
     President the authority and flexibility needed to review the 
     MTOPS control system and develop a more modern, effective 
     framework for computer exports. The need for Presidential 
     flexibility in this area is especially clear in light of 
     recent reports by the Center

[[Page 16557]]

     for Strategic and International Studies, the Department of 
     Defense, the Henry Stimson Center, the General Accounting 
     Office, and the Defense Science Board, which have all 
     concluded that the MTOPS-based approach is obsolete and fails 
     to advance U.S. national security.
       The U.S. computer industry needs new export control 
     policies that take into account the global, technological and 
     economic realities of the 21st century. As a result, we urge 
     you to support S. 149, as reported, and oppose any amendments 
     that would delay the implementation of the important reforms 
     contained in the bill.
           Sincerely,
         Michael S. Dell, Dell Computer; Louis V. Gerstner, Jr., 
           IBM Corporation; Andy Grove, Intel Corporation; 
           Carleton Florina, Hewlett-Packard; Michael Capellas, 
           Compaq Computer; Christopher B. Galvin, Motorola; Lars 
           Nyberg, NCR Corporation; Lawrence Weinbach, Unisys 
           Corporation.

  Mr. ENZI. I take this time to thank Senators Gramm and Sarbanes for 
their tremendous leadership and for entrusting Senator Johnson and I to 
do some of the background work before the legislation reached this 
stage. It is very important.
  I thank Marty Gruenberg on Senator Sarbanes's staff; Katherine 
McGuire, my legislative director; and Joel Oswald, now a Texas A&M 
student who worked for 3 years on the bill; Mary O'Brien; Kara Calvert; 
on Senator Johnson's staff, Naomi Camper and Paul Nash; from the staff 
of Senator Hagel, Dave Dorman; and the staff of Senator Bayh, Catherine 
Wojtasik; and other staff includes Jim Jochum who previously worked for 
Senator Gramm.
  I ask unanimous consent to have printed in the Record a list of the 
summary of the EAA discussions we have had to this point that have been 
contributed on a number of people's behalf to make the bill come 
together and be successful.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in

       ``As you know, on March 6 [sic], 2000, we provided you with 
     a package describing the issues that we consider critical to 
     reaching an agreement on the proposed reauthorization of S. 
     1712 [sic], the Export Administration Act. We were 
     disappointed that you were only able to agree to at most four 
     of the eighteen issues we identified, and were unable to 
     agree to some issues on which we believed we had previously 
     reached agreement in principle. Accordingly, we cannot agree 
     at this time to return the bill to the Senate floor under the 
     terms of the unanimous consent agreement field on March 8.
       ``There are important issues remaining to be resolved, and 
     we feel that negotiations should continue in order to for

     senators to alert them that Senator Lott planned to make a

     gentleman's agreement made with the other senators on March 
     8; and that Senators Lott and Gramm then would file cloture 
     on a motion to proceed to S. 1712.
       Wednesday, April 12: At Senator Lott's requests, Senators 
     Gramm and Enzi give Senator Lott two cloture petitions (one

     press conference on S. 2645. According to press reports, 
     Senator Thompson said that in his opinion, legislation to 
     reauthorize the Export Administration Act is probably dead as 
     a stand-alone measure in 2000; when asked whether he was 
     partly responsible, he replied ``Let's just say that truth 
     and justice were served''.
       Friday, May 26: Senator Thompson holds SGAC hearing on mass 
     market/foreign availability; no Administration witnesses are 
     invited.

  Mr. ENZI. I will make a few remarks after the vote particularly to 
thank Senator Sarbanes for his understanding of the bill.
  I yield the floor to Senator Sarbanes.
  Mr. SARBANES. How much time remains?
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. One minute for the proponent and 4 minutes for 
the opponent.
  Mr. SARBANES. I will take the 1 minute at this point. I urge my 
colleagues to support this legislation. It has been hard work. We think 
it is good, balanced legislation. I join with Senator Enzi in thanking 
the staff: Steve Harris, Marty Gruenberg, and Laurie Better of my 
staff; Katherine McGuire has done a wonderful job; and Joel Oswald and 
Kara Calvert of Senator Enzi's staff; Naomi Camper and Paul Nash of 
Senator Johnson's staff; and Wayne Abernathy and Amy Dunathan from 
Senator Gramm's staff. I thank Senator Gramm. We worked very closely on 
this bill. I pay tribute to Senator Enzi and Senator Johnson who worked 
together so assiduously, so skillfully, in helping to develop and 
evolve this legislation.
  I would be less than fair if I did not take a moment to say to 
Senator Enzi I think his dedication in working this legislation through 
and his very strong commitment and willingness to talk to everyone at 
great length, over and over and over again, contributed significantly 
to shaping legislation that we are finally going to be able to move 
through the Senate, with a very sizable consensus.
  I say to the opponents, I think we engaged this in a proper Senate 
fashion in terms of our debate and our efforts to respond to some 
concerns. We consulted with everyone--the administration, of course, 
perhaps first and foremost. My own view is we have brought together a 
good package. I urge my colleagues to support it when we go to the vote 
at 4 o'clock.
  I yield the floor.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Who yields time in opposition?
  Mr. THOMPSON. Mr. President, I yield myself 4 minutes unless any of 
my colleagues appear and want part of that.
  I, too, think congratulations are in order. Senator Enzi has worked 
so hard on this bill, Senator Gramm and Senator Sarbanes have taken the 
matter of leadership in this area, and Senator Johnson did an excellent 
job in shepherding it through over a long period of time. It has taken 
a long time primarily because some Members have seen to it that it took 
a longer period of time than it otherwise would have.
  I still must respectfully oppose this bill. This bill is going to 
pass by a large margin. I understand that. The business community is 
strongly behind it. The administration supports it. The majority of 
both sides of the aisle support it. I believe they are in error. I 
believe it is a mistake. I think we should recognize exactly what we 
are doing. I will say it one more time; that is, in an era of increased 
technological proliferation, with the world becoming a more dangerous 
place, where rogue nations are developing technology that will enable 
them to endanger this country and a world where these rogue nations are 
getting their technology from countries such as China and Russia, for 
which this bill will liberalize export trade, in this environment, in 
this era, we are loosening our export controls.

[[Page 16559]]

  At a time when we know that some of those to whom we will be sending 
more high-tech sensitive exports have in times past used them for 
military purposes, and that committees such as the Cox committee have 
reported to us that part of their increased capabilities have come 
about due to our lax export laws, this is the environment in which we 
pass a bill that gives the Department of Commerce substantial powers to 
make decisions concerning national security. The Department of Commerce 
is rightfully engaged in the considerations of trade and commerce. They 
should not be given the responsibility of national security.
  We are going to pass a bill that will have broad categories of 
subjects that are deemed to be mass marketed or have foreign 
availability status. If someone over in the bowels of the Department of 
Commerce decides these items belong in those categories, then they are 
taken out of the regulatory process altogether, and you don't even have 
to have a license.
  I do not think it is too much to ask for a few days of a license 
process with officials of the U.S. Government who are concerned about 
matters of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and matters of 
national security, it is not too much to ask that they be given a few 
days to make sure, as in times past, that we are not exporting 
something we should not be exporting. We give the President some 
override authority, but it is almost as if to say, ``Catch me if you 
can.'' We are greatly liberalizing things on this end and giving the 
President some power--which cannot be delegated, incidentally--giving 
the President some power to catch something here and there and stop it 
if he deems it necessary.
  At a time that we are trying to persuade the world we need a missile 
defense system, which I believe we need because of the dangers posed by 
the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, we are liberalizing 
export rules which I fear will contribute toward the ability of the 
countries with which we are trading, and in turn these rogue nations 
with which they are trading, to increase their weapons of mass 
destruction capabilities.
  It is not that we want to hamper trade. It is not that we want to be 
obstructionist--because our friends on the other side of this issue are 
very well-meaning and make very good points. It is not those factors at 
all that motivate the few of us who remain on this side. It is that we 
can afford to be wrong. If our concerns are too great, it will mean 
that a few companies are held up a few extra days before they can 
export goods. But if our friends on the other side of this issue are 
wrong, I fear it could cause serious harm.
  We are doing this in an environment where, even though the law has 
required us in times past to do a national security assessment of the 
decontrol of these laws, we have never done so. That is the basis of 
our concern. That is why, although we have had a wonderful, 
responsible, senatorial debate and discussion and vote, both on the 
floor and off, and think it has produced a better bill than we had 
originally, I must respectfully oppose it.
  I yield the floor.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is, Shall the bill pass?
  Mr. SARBANES. I ask for the yeas and nays.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there a sufficient second?
  There is a sufficient second. The clerk will call the roll.
  The assistant legislative clerk called the roll.
  Mr. NICKLES. I announce that the Senator from Alaska (Mr. Murkowski) 
is necessarily absent.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. (Mr. Johnson). Are there any other Senators in 
the Chamber desiring to vote?
  The result was announced--yeas 85, nays 14, as follows:

     regulations prescribed by the Secretary, to present

     such member in connection with the duties of such member.
       (d) Chairperson.--Each export control advisory committee 
     appointed under subsection (a) shall elect a chairperson, and

     chairperson, unless the chairperson determines, in 
     consultation with the other members of the committee, that 
     such a meeting is not necessary to achieve the purposes of 
     this section. Each such committee shall be terminated after a 
     period of 2 years, unless extended by the Secretary for 
     additional periods of 2 years each. The Secretary shall

     extension of that committee.

     export control advisory committees appointed under subsection 
     (a), the Secretary, in conjunction with other departments and 
     agencies participating in the administration of this Act, 
     shall disclose to each such committee adequate information, 
     consistent with national security and intelligence sources 
     and methods, pertaining to the reasons for the export 
     controls which are in effect or contemplated for the items or 
     policies for which that committee furnishes advice. 
     Information provided by the export control advisory 
     committees shall not be subject to disclosure under section 
     552 of title 5, United States Code, and such information 
     shall not be published or disclosed unless the Secretary 
     determines that the withholding thereof is contrary to the 
     national interest.

     with the provisions of this Act, prohibit, curtail, or 
     require a license, or other authorization for the export of 
     any item subject to the jurisdiction of the United States or 
     exported by any person subject to the jurisdiction of the 
     United States. The President may also require recordkeeping 
     and reporting with respect to the export of such item.
       (2) Exercise of authority.--The authority contained in this 
     subsection shall be exercised by the Secretary, in 
     consultation with the Secretary of Defense, the intelligence 
     agencies, and such other departments and agencies as the 
     Secretary considers appropriate.
       (b) Purposes.--The purposes of national security export 
     controls are the following:
       (1) To restrict the export of items that would contribute 
     to the military potential of countries so as to prove 
     detrimental to the national security of the United States, 
     its allies or countries sharing common strategic objectives 
     with the United States.
       (2) To stem the proliferation of weapons of mass 
     destruction, and the means to deliver them, and other 
     significant military capabilities by--
       (A) leading international efforts to control the 
     proliferation of chemical and biological weapons, nuclear 
     explosive devices, missile delivery systems, key-enabling 
     technologies, and other significant military capabilities;
       (B) controlling involvement of United States persons in, 
     and contributions by United States persons to, foreign 
     programs intended to develop weapons of mass destruction, 
     missiles, and other significant military capabilities, and 
     the means to design, test, develop, produce, stockpile, or 
     use them; and
       (C) implementing international treaties or other agreements 
     or arrangements concerning controls on exports of designated 
     items, reports on the production, processing, consumption, 
     and exports and imports of such items, and compliance with 
     verification programs.
       (3) To deter acts of international terrorism.
       (c) End Use and End User Controls.--Notwithstanding any 
     other provision of this title, controls may be imposed, based 
     on the end use or end user, on the export of any item, that 
     could contribute to the proliferation of weapons of mass 
     destruction or the means to deliver them.
       (d) Enhanced Controls.--
       (1) In general.--Notwithstanding any other provisions of 
     this title, the President may determine that applying the 
     provisions of section 204 or 211 with respect to an item on 
     the National Security Control List would constitute a 
     significant threat to the national security of the United 
     States and that such item requires enhanced control. If the 
     President determines that enhanced control should apply to 
     such item, the item may be excluded from the provisions of 
     section 204, section 211, or both, until such time as the 
     President shall determine that such enhanced control should 
     no longer apply to such item. The President may not delegate 
     the authority provided for in this subsection.
       (2) Report to congress.--The President shall promptly 
     report any determination described in paragraph (1), along 
     with the specific reasons for the determination, to the 
     Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the 
     Senate and the Committee on International Relations of the 
     House of Representatives.

     security purposes of the United States, taking into account 
     mass-market status, foreign availability, and other relevant 
     factors.

       (a) Export of Items Containing Controlled Parts and 
     Components.--Controls may not be imposed under this title or 
     any other provision of law on an item solely because the item 
     contains parts or components subject to export controls under 
     this title, if the parts or components--
       (1) are essential to the functioning of the item,
       (2) are customarily included in sales of the item in 
     countries other than controlled countries, and
       (3) comprise 25 percent or less of the total value of the 
     item,

     unless the item itself, if exported, would by virtue of the 
     functional characteristics of the item as a whole make a 
     significant contribution to the military or proliferation 
     potential of a controlled country or end user which would 
     prove detrimental to the national security of the United 
     States, or unless failure to control the item would be 
     contrary to the provisions of section 201(c), section 201(d), 
     or section 309 of this Act.
       (b) Reexports of Foreign-Made Items Incorporating United 
     States Controlled Content.--
       (1) In general.--No authority or permission may be required 
     under this title to reexport to a country an item that is 
     produced in a country other than the United States and 
     incorporates parts or components that are subject to the 
     jurisdiction of the United States, if the value of the 
     controlled United States content of the item produced in such 
     other country is 25 percent or less of the total value of the 
     item; except that in the case of reexports of an item to a 
     country designated as a country supporting international 
     terrorism pursuant to section 310, controls may be maintained 
     if the value of the controlled United States content is more 
     than 10 percent of the total value of the item.
       (2) Definition of controlled united states content.--For 
     purposes of this paragraph, the term ``controlled United 
     States content'' of an item means those parts or components 
     that--
       (A) are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States;
       (B) are incorporated into the item; and
       (C) would, at the time of the reexport, require a license 
     under this title if exported from the United States to a 
     country to which the item is to be reexported.

       (1) on a continuing basis,
       (2) upon a request from the Office of Technology 
     Evaluation, or
       (3) upon receipt of a petition filed by an interested 
     person,

     review and determine the foreign availability and the mass-
     market status of any item the export of which is controlled 
     under this title.
       (b) Petition and Consultation.--
       (1) In general.--The Secretary shall establish a process 
     for an interested person to petition the Secretary for a 
     determination that an item has a foreign availability or 
     mass-market status. In evaluating and making a determination 
     with respect to a petition filed under this section, the 
     Secretary shall consult with the Secretary of Defense, 
     Secretary of State, and other appropriate Government agencies 
     and with the Office of Technology Evaluation (established 
     pursuant to section 214).
       (2) Time for making determination.--The Secretary shall, 
     within 6 months after receiving a petition described in 
     subsection (a)(3), determine whether the item that is the 
     subject of the petition has foreign availability or mass-
     market status and shall notify the petitioner of the 
     determination.
       (c) Result of Determination.--In any case in which the 
     Secretary determines, in accordance with procedures and 
     criteria which the Secretary shall by regulation establish, 
     that an item described in subsection (a) has--
       (1) a foreign availability status, or
       (2) a mass-market status,
     the Secretary shall notify the President (and other 
     appropriate departments and agencies) and publish the notice 
     of the determination in the Federal Register. The Secretary's 
     determination shall become final 30 days after the date the 
     notice is published, the item shall be removed from the 
     National Security Control List, and a license or other 
     authorization shall not be required under this title with 
     respect to the item, unless the President makes a 
     determination described in section 212 or 213, or takes 
     action under section 309, with respect to the item in that 
     30-day period.
       (d) Criteria for Determining Foreign Availability and Mass-
     Market Status.--
       (1) Foreign availability status.--The Secretary shall 
     determine that an item has foreign availability status under 
     this subtitle, if the item (or a substantially identical or 
     directly competitive item)--
       (A) is available to controlled countries from sources 
     outside the United States, including countries that 
     participate with the United States in multilateral export 
     controls;
       (B) can be acquired at a price that is not excessive when 
     compared to the price at which a controlled country could 
     acquire such item from sources within the United States in 
     the absence of export controls; and

[[Page 16563]]

       (C) is available in sufficient quantity so that the 
     requirement of a license or other authorization with respect 
     to the export of such item is or would be ineffective.
       (2) Mass-market status.--
       (A) In general.--In determining whether an item has mass-
     market status under this subtitle, the Secretary shall 
     consider the following criteria with respect to the item (or 
     a substantially identical or directly competitive item):
       (i) The production and availability for sale in a large 
     volume to multiple potential purchasers.
       (ii) The widespread distribution through normal commercial 
     channels, such as retail stores, direct marketing catalogues, 
     electronic commerce, and other channels.
       (iii) The conduciveness to shipment and delivery by 
     generally accepted commercial means of transport.
       (iv) The use for the item's normal intended purpose without 
     substantial and specialized service provided by the 
     manufacturer, distributor, or other third party.
       (B) Determination by secretary.--If the Secretary finds 
     that the item (or a substantially identical or directly 
     competitive item) meets the criteria set forth in 
     subparagraph (A), the Secretary shall determine that the item 
     has mass-market status.
       (3) Special rules.--For purposes of this subtitle--
       (A) Substantially identical item.--The determination of 
     whether an item in relation to another item is a 
     substantially identical item shall include a fair assessment 
     of end-uses, the properties, nature, and quality of the item.
       (B) Directly competitive item.--
       (i) In general.--The determination of whether an item in 
     relation to another item is a directly competitive item shall 
     include a fair assessment of whether the item, although not 
     substantially identical in its intrinsic or inherent 
     characteristics, is substantially equivalent for commercial 
     purposes and may be adapted for substantially the same uses.
       (ii) Exception.--An item is not directly competitive with a 
     controlled item if the item is not of comparable quality to 
     the controlled item with respect to characteristics that 
     resulted in the export of the item being controlled.

     appropriate foreign countries for the purpose of eliminating 
     such availability.
       (B) Report to congress.--Not later than the date the 
     President begins negotiations, the President shall notify in 
     writing the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs

     has not commenced international negotiations to eliminate the 
     foreign availability of the item within that 6-month period;
       (B) the date on which the negotiations described in 
     paragraph (1) have terminated without achieving an agreement 
     to eliminate foreign availability;
       (C) the date on which the President determines that there 
     is not a high probability of eliminating foreign availability 
     of the item through negotiation; or
       (D) the date that is 18 months after the date on which the 
     determination described in subsection (a)(1)(A) (i) or (ii) 
     is made if the President has been unable to achieve an 
     agreement to eliminate foreign availability within that 18-
     month period.
       (4) Action on expiration of presidential set-aside.--Upon 
     the expiration of a Presidential set-aside under paragraph 
     (3) with respect to an item, the Secretary shall not require

     require a license, other authorization, recordkeeping, or 
     reporting for the export of any item subject to the 
     jurisdiction of the United States or exported by any person 
     subject to the jurisdiction of the United States.
       (2) Exercise of authority.--The authority contained in this 
     subsection shall be exercised by the Secretary, in 
     consultation with the Secretary of State and such other 
     departments and agencies as the Secretary considers 
     appropriate.
       (b) Purposes.--The purposes of foreign policy export 
     controls are the following:
       (1) To promote the foreign policy objectives of the United 
     States, consistent with the purposes of this section and the 
     provisions of this Act.
       (2) To promote international peace, stability, and respect 
     for fundamental human rights.
       (3) To use export controls to deter and punish acts of 
     international terrorism and to encourage other countries to 
     take immediate steps to prevent the use of their territories 
     or resources to aid, encourage, or give sanctuary to those 
     persons involved in directing, supporting, or participating 
     in acts of international terrorism.
       (c) Foreign Products.--No authority or permission may be 
     required under this title to reexport to a country an item 
     that is produced in a country other than the United States 
     and incorporates parts or components that are subject to the 
     jurisdiction of the United States, except that in the case of 
     reexports of an item to a country designated as a country 
     supporting international terrorism pursuant to section 310, 
     controls may be maintained if the value of the controlled 
     United States content is more than 10 percent of the value of 
     the item.
       (d) Contract Sanctity.--
       (1) In general.--The President may not prohibit the export 
     of any item under this title if that item is to be exported--
       (A) in performance of a binding contract, agreement, or 
     other contractual commitment entered into before the date on 
     which the President reports to Congress the President's 
     intention to impose controls on that item under this title; 
     or
       (B) under a license or other authorization issued under 
     this Act before the earlier of the date on which the control 
     is initially imposed or the date on which the President 
     reports to Congress the President's intention to impose 
     controls under this title.
       (2) Exception.--The prohibition contained in paragraph (1) 
     shall not apply in any case in which the President determines 
     and certifies to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban 
     Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on International 
     Relations of the House of Representatives that--
       (A) there is a serious threat to a foreign policy interest 
     of the United States;
       (B) the prohibition of exports under each binding contract, 
     agreement, commitment, license, or authorization will be 
     instrumental in remedying the situation posing the serious 
     threat; and
       (C) the export controls will be in effect only as long as 
     the serious threat exists.

     receipt and status of the application.
       (2) Initial procedures.--
       (A) In general.--Not later than 9 days after receiving any 
     license application, the Secretary shall--
       (i) contact the applicant if the application is improperly 
     completed or if additional information is required, and hold 
     the application for a reasonable time while the applicant 
     provides the necessary corrections or information, and such 
     time shall not be included in calculating the time periods 
     prescribed in this title; and
       (ii) upon receipt of completed application--

       (I) ensure that the classification stated on the 
     application for the export items is correct;
       (II) refer the application, through the use of a common

     of State, and the heads of any other departments and agencies 
     the Secretary considers appropriate; or
       (III) return the application if a license is not required.

       (B) Referral not required.--In the event that the head of a 
     department or agency determines that certain types of

     application under this section shall establish and maintain 
     records properly identifying and monitoring the status of the 
     matter referred to the department or agency.
       (3) Additional information requests.--Each department or 
     agency to which a license application is referred shall 
     specify to the Secretary any information that is not in the 
     application that would be required for the department or 
     agency to make a determination with respect to the 
     application, and the Secretary shall promptly request such 
     information from the applicant. The time that may elapse 
     between the date the information is requested by that 
     department or agency and the date the information is received 
     by that department or agency shall not be included in 
     calculating the time periods prescribed in this title.
       (4) Time period for action by referral departments and 
     agencies.--Within 30 days after the Secretary refers an 
     application under this section, each department or agency to 
     which an application has been referred shall provide the 
     Secretary with a recommendation either to approve the license 
     or to deny the license. A recommendation that the Secretary 
     deny a license shall include a statement of reasons for the 
     recommendation that are consistent with the provisions of 
     this title, and shall cite both the specific statutory and 
     regulatory basis for the recommendation. A department or

       (1) if there is agreement among the referral departments 
     and agencies to issue or deny the license--
       (A) issue the license and ensure all appropriate personnel 
     in the Department (including the Office of Export 
     Enforcement) are notified of all approved license 
     applications; or
       (B) notify the applicant of the intention to deny the 
     license; or
       (2) if there is no agreement among the referral departments 
     and agencies, notify the applicant that the application is 
     subject to the interagency dispute resolution process 
     provided for in section 402.
       (e) Consequences of Application Denial.--
       (1) In general.--If a determination is made to deny a 
     license, the applicant shall be informed in writing, 
     consistent with the protection of intelligence information 
     sources and methods, by the Secretary of--
       (A) the determination;
       (B) the specific statutory and regulatory bases for the 
     proposed denial;
       (C) what, if any, modifications to, or restrictions on, the 
     items for which the license was sought would allow such 
     export to be compatible with export controls imposed under 
     this Act, and which officer or employee of the Department 
     would be in a position to discuss modifications or 
     restrictions with the applicant and the specific statutory 
     and regulatory bases for imposing such modifications or 
     restrictions;
       (D) to the extent consistent with the national security and 
     foreign policy interests

     the determination to deny the application; and
       (E) the availability of appeal procedures.
       (2) Period for applicant to respond.--The applicant shall 
     have 20 days from the date of the notice of intent to deny 
     the application to respond in a manner that addresses and 
     corrects the reasons for the denial. If the applicant does 
     not adequately address or correct the reasons for denial or 
     does not respond, the license shall be denied. If the 
     applicant does address or correct the reasons for denial, the 
     application shall be considered in a timely manner.
       (f) Appeals and Other Actions by Applicant.--
       (1) In general.--The Secretary shall establish appropriate 
     procedures for an applicant to appeal to the Secretary the 
     denial of an application or other administrative action under 
     this Act. In any case in which the Secretary proposes to 
     reverse the decision with respect to the application, the 
     appeal under this subsection shall be handled in accordance

     of a time period extended under subsection (g) of which the 
     applicant is notified), the applicant may file a petition 
     with the Secretary requesting compliance with the 
     requirements of this section. When such petition is filed, 
     the Secretary shall take immediate steps to correct the 
     situation giving rise to the petition and shall immediately 
     notify the applicant of such steps.
       (B) Bringing court action.--If, within 20 days after a

     the application has not been brought into conformity with the 
     requirements of this section, or the processing of the 
     application has been brought into conformity with such 
     requirements but the Secretary has not so notified the 
     applicant, the applicant may bring an action in an 
     appropriate United States district court for an order 
     requiring compliance with the time periods required by this

     completed by the Secretary within 5 days.
       (3) Requests for government-to-government assurances.--Any 
     request by the Secretary or another department or agency for 
     government-to-government assurances of suitable end-uses of

     Secretary of State within 5 days after the determination that 
     the assurances are required;
       (B) the Secretary of State initiates the request of the

     SEC. 501. INTERNATIONAL ARRANGEMENTS.

       (a) Multilateral Export Control Regimes.--
       (1) Policy.--It is the policy of the United States to seek 
     multilateral arrangements that support the national security 
     objectives of the United States (as described in title II) 
     and that establish fairer and more predictable competitive 
     opportunities for United States exporters.
       (2) Participation in existing regimes.--Congress encourages 
     the United States to continue its active participation in and 
     to strengthen existing multilateral export control regimes.
       (3) Participation in new regimes.--It is the policy of the 
     United States to participate in additional multilateral 
     export control regimes if such participation would serve the 
     national security interests of the United States.
       (b) Annual Report on Multilateral Export Control Regimes.--
     Not later than February 1 of each year, the President shall 
     submit to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban 
     Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on International 
     Relations of the House of Representatives a report evaluating 
     the effectiveness of each multilateral export control regime, 
     including an assessment of the steps undertaken pursuant to 
     subsections (c) and (d). The report, or any part of this 
     report, may be submitted in classified form to the extent the 
     President considers necessary.
       (c) Standards for Multilateral Export Control Regimes.--The 
     President shall take

[[Page 16568]]

     steps to establish the following features in any multilateral 
     export control regime in which the United States is 
     participating or may participate:
       (1) Full membership.--All supplier countries are members of 
     the regime, and the policies and activities of the members 
     are consistent with the objectives and membership criteria of 
     the multilateral export control regime.
       (2) Effective enforcement and compliance.--The regime 
     promotes enforcement and compliance with the regime's rules 
     and guidelines.
       (3) Public understanding.--The regime makes an effort to 
     enhance public understanding of the purpose and procedures of 
     the multilateral export control regime.
       (4) Effective implementation procedures.--The multilateral 
     export control regime has procedures for the uniform and 
     consistent interpretation and implementation of its rules and 
     guidelines.
       (5) Enhanced cooperation with regime nonmembers.--There is 
     agreement among the members of the multilateral export 
     control regime to--
       (A) cooperate with governments outside the regime to 
     restrict the export of items controlled by such regime; and
       (B) establish an ongoing mechanism in the regime to 
     coordinate planning and implementation of export control 
     measures related to such cooperation.
       (6) Periodic high-level meetings.--There are regular 
     periodic meetings of high-level representatives of the 
     governments of members of the multilateral export control 
     regime for the purpose of coordinating export control 
     policies and issuing policy guidance to members of the 
     regime.
       (7) Common list of controlled items.--There is agreement on 
     a common list of items controlled by the multilateral export 
     control regime.
       (8) Regular updates of common list.--There is a procedure 
     for removing items from the list of controlled items when the 
     control of such items no longer serves the objectives of the 
     members of the multilateral export control regime.
       (9) Treatment of certain countries.--There is agreement to 
     prevent the export or diversion of the most sensitive items 
     to countries whose activities are threatening to the national 
     security of the United States or its allies.
       (10) Harmonization of license approval procedures.--There 
     is harmonization among the members of the regime of their 
     national export license approval procedures, practices, and 
     standards.
       (11) Undercutting.--There is a limit with respect to when 
     members of a multilateral export control regime--
       (A) grant export licenses for any item that is 
     substantially identical to or directly competitive with an 
     item controlled pursuant to the regime, where the United 
     States has denied an export license for such item, or
       (B) approve exports to a particular end user to which the 
     United States has denied export license for a similar item.
       (d) Standards for National Export Control Systems.--The 
     President shall take steps to attain the cooperation of 
     members of each regime in implementing effective national 
     export control systems containing the following features:
       (1) Export control law.--Enforcement authority, civil and 
     criminal penalties, and statutes of limitations are 
     sufficient to deter potential violations and punish violators 
     under the member's export control law.
       (2) License approval process.--The system for evaluating 
     export license applications includes sufficient technical 
     expertise to assess the licensing status of exports and 
     ensure the reliability of end users.
       (3) Enforcement.--The enforcement mechanism provides 
     authority for trained enforcement officers to investigate and 
     prevent illegal exports.
       (4) Documentation.--There is a system of export control 
     documentation and verification with respect to controlled 
     items.
       (5) Information.--There are procedures for the coordination 
     and exchange of information concerning licensing, end users, 
     and enforcement with other members of the multilateral export 
     control regime.
       (6) Resources.--The member has devoted adequate resources 
     to administer effectively the authorities, systems, 
     mechanisms, and procedures described in paragraphs (1) 
     through (5).
       (e) Objectives Regarding Multilateral Export Control 
     Regimes.--The President shall seek to achieve the following 
     objectives with regard to multilateral export control 
     regimes:
       (1) Strengthen existing regimes.--Strengthen existing 
     multilateral export control regimes--
       (A) by creating a requirement to share information about 
     export license applications among members before a member 
     approves an export license; and
       (B) harmonizing national export license approval procedures 
     and practices, including the elimination of undercutting.
       (2) Review and update.--Review and update multilateral 
     regime export control lists with other members, taking into 
     account--
       (A) national security concerns;
       (B) the controllability of items; and
       (C) the costs and benefits of controls.
       (3) Encourage compliance by nonmembers.--Encourage 
     nonmembers of the multilateral export control regime--
       (A) to strengthen their national export control regimes and 
     improve enforcement;
       (B) to adhere to the appropriate multilateral export 
     control regime; and
       (C) not to undermine an existing multilateral export 
     control regime by exporting controlled items in a manner 
     inconsistent with the guidelines of the regime.
       (f) Transparency of Multilateral Export Control Regimes.--
       (1) Publication of information on each existing regime.--
     Not later than 120 days after the date of enactment of this 
     Act, the Secretary shall, for each multilateral export 
     control regime, to the extent that it is not inconsistent 
     with the arrangements of that regime (in the judgment of the 
     Secretary of State) or with the national interest, publish in 
     the Federal Register and post on the Department of Commerce 
     website the following information with respect to the regime:
       (A) The purposes of the regime.
       (B) The members of the regime.
       (C) The export licensing policy of the regime.
       (D) The items that are subject to export controls under the 
     regime, together with all public notes, understandings, and 
     other aspects of the agreement of the regime, and all changes 
     thereto.
       (E) Any countries, end uses, or end users that are subject 
     to the export controls of the regime.
       (F) Rules of interpretation.
       (G) Major policy actions.
       (H) The rules and procedures of the regime for establishing 
     and modifying any matter described in subparagraphs (A)

     States joins or organizes a new multilateral export control 
     regime, the Secretary shall, to the extent that it is not 
     inconsistent with arrangements under the regime (in the 
     judgment of the Secretary of State) or with the national 
     interest, publish in the Federal Register and post on the 
     Department of Commerce website the information described in 
     subparagraphs (A) through (H) of paragraph (1) with respect 
     to the regime.
       (3) Publication of changes.--Not later than 60 days after a 
     multilateral export control regime adopts any change in the 
     information published under this subsection, the Secretary 
     shall, to the extent not inconsistent with the arrangements 
     under the regime or the national interest, publish such 
     changes in the Federal Register and post such changes on the 
     Department of Commerce website.
       (g) Support of Other Countries' Export Control Systems.--
     The Secretary is encouraged to continue to--
       (1) participate in training of, and provide training to, 
     officials of other countries on the principles and procedures 
     for implementing effective export controls; and
       (2) participate in any such training provided by other 
     departments and agencies of the United States.

     SEC. 502. FOREIGN BOYCOTTS.

       (a) Purposes.--The purposes of this section are as follows:
       (1) To counteract restrictive trade practices or boycotts 
     fostered or imposed by foreign countries against other 
     countries friendly to the United States or against any United 
     States person.
       (2) To encourage and, in specified cases, require United 
     States persons engaged in the export of items to refuse to 
     take actions, including furnishing information or entering 
     into or implementing agreements, which have the effect of 
     furthering or supporting the restrictive trade practices or 
     boycotts fostered or imposed by any foreign country against a 
     country friendly to the United States or against any United 
     States person.
       (b) Prohibitions and Exceptions.--

     foreign commerce of the United States, from taking or 
     knowingly agreeing to take any of the following actions with 
     intent to comply with, further, or support any boycott 
     fostered or imposed by a foreign country against a country

     review.
       (d) Imposition of Temporary Denial Orders.--
       (1) Grounds for imposition.--In any case in which there is 
     reasonable cause to believe that a person is engaged in or is 
     about to engage in any act or practice which constitutes or 
     would constitute a violation of this Act, or any regulation, 
     order, or license issued under this Act, including any 
     diversion of goods or technology from an authorized end use 
     or end user, and in any case in which a criminal indictment 
     has been returned against a person alleging a violation of 
     this Act or any of the statutes listed in section 503, the 
     Secretary may, without a hearing, issue an order temporarily 
     denying that person's United States export privileges 
     (hereafter in this subsection referred to as a ``temporary 
     denial order''). A temporary denial order shall be effective 
     for such period (not in excess of 180 days) as the Secretary 
     specifies in the order, but may be renewed by the Secretary, 
     following notice and an opportunity for a hearing, for 
     additional periods of not more than 180 days each.

     to the issuance or renewal of a temporary denial order may 
     appeal the issuance or renewal of the temporary denial order, 
     supported by briefs and other material, to an administrative 
     law judge who

[[Page 16575]]

     shall, within 15 working days after the appeal is filed, 
     issue a decision affirming, modifying, or vacating the 
     temporary denial order. The temporary denial order shall be 
     affirmed if it is shown that--
       (A) there is reasonable cause to believe that the person 
     subject to the order is engaged in or is about to engage in 
     any act or practice that constitutes or would constitute a 
     violation of this Act, or any regulation, order, or license 
     issued under this Act; or
       (B) a criminal indictment has been returned against the 
     person subject to the order alleging a violation of this Act 
     or any of the statutes listed in section 503.
     The decision of the administrative law judge shall be final 
     unless, within 10 working days after the date of the 
     administrative law judge's decision, an appeal is filed with 
     the Secretary. On appeal, the Secretary shall either affirm, 
     modify, reverse, or vacate the decision of the administrative 
     law judge by written order within 10 working days after 
     receiving the appeal. The written order of the Secretary 
     shall be final and is not subject to judicial review, except 
     as provided in paragraph (3). The materials submitted to the 
     administrative law judge and the Secretary shall constitute 
     the administrative record for purposes of review by the 
     court.
       (3) Court appeals.--An order of the Secretary affirming, in 
     whole or in part, the issuance or renewal of a temporary 
     denial order may, within 15 days after the order is issued, 
     be appealed by a person subject to the order to the United 
     States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, 
     which shall have jurisdiction of the appeal. The court may 
     review only those issues necessary to determine whether the 
     issuance of the temporary denial order was based on 
     reasonable cause to believe that the person subject to the 
     order was engaged in or was about to engage in any act or 
     practice that constitutes or would constitute a violation of 
     this title, or any regulation, order, or license issued under 
     this Act, or whether a criminal indictment has been returned 
     against the person subject to the order alleging a violation 
     of this Act or of any of the statutes listed in section 503. 
     The court shall vacate the Secretary's order if the court 
     finds that the Secretary's order is arbitrary, capricious, an 
     abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law.
       (e) Limitations on Review of Classified Information.--Any 
     classified information that is included in the administrative 
     record that is subject to review pursuant to subsection 
     (b)(1) or (d)(3) may be reviewed by the court only on an ex 
     parte basis and in camera.
