Implementation of the Wassenaar Arrangement List of Dual-Use 
Items: Revisions to the Commerce Control List and Reporting Under the 
Wassenaar Arrangement

AGENCY: Bureau of Export Administration, Commerce.

ACTION: Interim rule with request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Representatives of thirty-three countries gave final approval 
July 12-13, 1996 in Vienna, Austria to establish the Wassenaar 
Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods 
and Technologies. The thirty-three countries agreed to control all 
items in the List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies with the objective 
of preventing unauthorized transfers. They further agreed on a target 
date of November 1, 1996, for implementation of the Wassenaar Lists.
    The purpose of this interim rule is to make the changes to the 
Commerce Control List necessary to implement the Wassenaar List. In 
addition, this interim rule imposes new reporting requirements on 
persons that export certain items controlled under the Wassenaar 
Arrangement to non-member countries in order to fulfill the information 
exchange requirements of the Wassenaar Arrangement. The Department of 
Commerce, with other concerned agencies, is reviewing the Export 
Administration Regulations to determine whether further changes will be 
required to implement the information sharing provisions of the 
Wassenaar Arrangement and to make the necessary adjustments to existing 
country groups.
    This rule also revises part 740 of the EAR by removing License 
Exception availability for certain items controlled for missile 
technology reasons.
    Although the Export Administration Act (EAA) expired on August 20, 
1994, the President invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers 
Act and continued in effect, to the extent permitted by law, the 
provisions of the EAA and the EAR in Executive Order 12924 of August 
19, 1994, as extended by the President's notices of August 15, 1995, 
August 14, 1996 and August 15, 1997.

DATES: This rule is effective January 15, 1998. Comments on this rule 
must be received on or before February 17, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should be sent to Patricia Muldonian, 
Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Export Administration, Department 
of Commerce, P.O. Box 273, Washington, DC 20044.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: James Lewis, Director, Office of 
Strategic Trade and Foreign Policy Controls, Bureau of Export 
Administration, Telephone: (202) 482-0092.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    In July 1996, the United States and thirty-two other countries gave 
final approval to the establishment of a new multilateral export 
control arrangement, called the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export 
Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual-Use Goods and Technologies 
(Wassenaar Arrangement). The Wassenaar Arrangement contributes to 
regional and international security and stability by promoting 
transparency and greater responsibility in transfers of conventional 
arms and dual-use goods and technologies, thus preventing destabilizing 
accumulations of such items. Participating states have committed to 
exchange information on exports of dual-use goods and technologies to 
non-participating states for the purposes of enhancing transparency and 
assisting in developing common understandings of the risks associated 
with the transfers of these items.
    To fulfill U.S. commitments to the Wassenaar Arrangement with 
regard to dual-use items, this rule amends the Export Administration 
Regulations (EAR) by imposing new reporting requirements for exports of 
certain items controlled under the Wassenaar Arrangement. Reports are 
not required for reexports. These new requirements appear in newly 
added part 743 of the EAR. Information from exporters will be 
consolidated by BXA for an aggregate data submission to the 
participating states.
    With respect to certain dual-use commodities, software, and 
technology, participating states have undertaken commitments to notify 
each other preferably within 30 days, but no later than 60 days, of an 
approval of a license that has been denied by another participating 
state for an essentially identical transaction during the preceding 
three years. Certain of these items are eligible for License Exceptions 
authorized by part 740 of the EAR. Therefore, in order to meet 
Wassenaar Arrangement requirements, exporters on occasion may be 
informed that the export of a certain item to a specific end-user under 
a License Exception is not authorized or alternatively, may be 
requested to provide prior written notification to BXA of an export of 
a certain item to a specific end-user under a License Exception.
    Reports are required to be submitted to BXA semiannually for 
specified items controlled under the Wassenaar Arrangement exported 
under License Exceptions LVS, GBS, CIV, CTP, TSR, and GOV. BXA must 
receive such reports no later than August 1 for exports during the 
reporting period January 1 through June 30, and no later than February 
1 for exports during the reporting period July 1 through December 31. 
The Export Control Classification Number and paragraph reference as 
identified on the Commerce Control List, number of units in each 
shipment, and the country of ultimate destination must be included in 
each report for each export during the reporting period. Although the 
exporter must be identified on all reports to BXA, names of exporters 
will not be released to participating states. Certain additional 
information requirements apply to digital computers.
    Exporters should note that the first report must be submitted to 
and received by BXA no later than August 1, 1998 for the partial 
reporting period beginning January 15, 1998 and ending June 30, 1998. 
Thereafter, reports are required semiannually according to the 
provisions of new Sec. 743.1(f) of the EAR.
    This rule also amends Sec. 742.12 of the EAR (High Performance 
Computers) to clarify the reporting and recordkeeping requirements for 
certain computer and software exports.
    This rule also amends part 740 of the EAR by adding appropriate 
cross-references to reporting requirements under License Exceptions 
LVS, GBS, CIV, TSR, CTP, and GOV. The major changes in the Commerce 
Control List (CCL) necessary to implement the Wassenaar Arrangement are 
summarized below.
    In addition, based on interagency agreement, particularly 
consultations with the Department of State, this rule revises part 740 
of the EAR by removing License Exception availability for missile 
technology (MT) controlled items, except that items described in ECCNs 
6A008, 7A001, 7A002, 7A004, 7A101, 7A102, 7A103, 7A104, 7D001, 7D002, 
7D003, 7D101, 7D102, 7E003, or 7E101, may be exported as part of a 
manned aircraft, satellite, land vehicle, or marine vehicle or in 
quantities

[[Page 2453]]

appropriate for replacement parts under License Exceptions TMP, RPL, 
TSU, or AVS. This action is based on a U.S. Government policy to 
restrict the proliferation of missile capability and is consistent with 
the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) multilateral guidelines.
    Also, in an effort to comply with our international commitments of 
the Wassenaar Arrangement, the U.S. has also committed to exercise 
extreme vigilance for certain items controlled for national security 
reasons (NS), which are considered most critical to military 
applications. This rule removes License Exception eligibility for 
License Exceptions LVS, CIV, TSR, and GOV for certain commodities, 
technologies, and software controlled for national security reasons for 
which the U.S. has agreed to license with extreme vigilance.

Category 1--Materials

    Additional controls have been added for body armor (1A005), certain 
fluorocarbon electronic cooling fluids (1C006), certain ``ceramic-
ceramic'' materials with oxide or glass matrix (1C007), certain metals 
and compounds (1C011), and certain material for nuclear heat sources. 
In addition, controls for ``stress'' limits for metal alloys (1C002), 
have been modified. Additional clarification of controls are specific 
for the transition temperature limits on certain ``fibrous or 
filamentary materials'' (1C010)

Category 2--Material Processing

    A significant number of changes have been implemented for machine 
tools. Specifically, the machine tool entry has been modified to 
separate the controls on turning, milling and grinding machines. In 
particular, such machines will no longer be controlled under the 
Wassenaar Arrangement on the basis of ``tilting spindles'', 
``camming'', or ``run-out''. Also, detailed test procedures, as 
specified by the International Standards Organization (ISO), will no 
longer be reiterated in the list. This revision will allow the 
regulations to remain effective while keeping the procedures under 
which the equipment is measured, current with industry practice. In 
addition, controls have been removed for ``numerical control'' units 
and ``motion control boards'', wire feed type electrical discharge 
machines (2B001), manual machines specially designed for bevel gears 
(2B003), systems for inspection of hemishells (2B006), and software for 
``flexible manufacturing units'' (2D002). Two additional items have 
been added under 2B001. They include ``specialty machines'' (i.e. deep 
hole drilling machines) and spin-forming/flow-forming machines. Lastly, 
controls on spindle assemblies and slide assemblies have been moved 
from 2B008 to 2B992 as specially designed components therefore.

Category 3--Electronics

    A number of controls have been removed for components under 
Category 3, including microprocessors up to a composite theoretical 
performance (CTP) value of 260 Mtops, most storage devices (i.e. memory 
circuits), and on custom integrated circuits (3A001). In addition, the 
frequency parameter for network analyzers and microwave test receivers 
have been relaxed, and controls on emulators (3A002) have been removed 
entirely. The most significant change is in the entries under Category 
3B dealing with semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Specifically, 
these entries have been combined and divided into two ECCNs. In 
addition, the limit for control of integrated circuits testers have 
been raised from 50 MHZ to 60 MHZ (3B002).

Category 4--Computers

    Under category 4, the CTP value for computers has been raised from 
260 Mtops to 2,000 Mtops. The limit on graphic accelerators and 
graphics coprocessors has been relaxed to a 3-D vector rate of 
3,000,000 (4A003). The technology for ``multi-data-stream processing'' 
has been revised to the control level defined in 4A003.b. (4E002). The 
technology for magnetic hard disk drives (4E002) has been removed.

Category 5--Telecommunications, Part I

    Several sections of Part I, Telecommunication have been removed 
creating a significant number of changes to the controls on 
telecommunication equipment. The majority of changes are identified in 
the following entries.
    All controls on telecommunication transmission equipment or 
systems, having digital cross connect equipment and modems (5A001.b.), 
have been removed. In addition, controls have been removed on certain 
communication channel controllers, certain network access controllers, 
certain radio equipment operating at frequencies of 31 GHz or less, and 
certain digital signal processing equipment based upon ``user-
accessible programmability'' by raising the control parameters in each 
instance (5A001.b.).
    Also, controls have been removed on ``stored program controlled'' 
switching equipment containing any of the following characteristics, 
functions or features (5A001.c.):

--``Integrated Services Digital Network'' (ISDN) functions;
--Multi-level priority and pre-emption for circuit switching;
--Routing or switching of ``datagram'' packets;
--Routing for switching of fast select packets;
--Automatic hand-off of cellular radio calls; and
--Digital cross connect equipment.

    Additionally, the control parameters for the ``data signaling 
rate'' for ``communications channel controllers'' and the digital 
transfer rate for ``network access controllers'' have been modified to 
relax controls on packet switches, circuit switches and routers. 
Controls on all general purpose test equipment (e.g. bit error rate 
testers and protocol analyzers) have been removed (5B001). Controls on 
software for use of digital switching equipment (5D001) have been 
removed and controls on development technology for spread spectrum and 
frequency hopping techniques (5E001.b.) have been added.

Category 5--``Information Security'', Part II

    Under Part II, ``Information Security'', certain items have been 
decontrolled through an expansion of ``Notes'' within the entry of 
5A002. These notes state that certain access control equipment (e.g. 
equipment to protect personal identification numbers [PIN]), data 
authentication equipment (e.g. equipment which calculates a Message 
Authentication Code [MAC]) and cryptographic equipment specially 
designed and limited for use in machines for banking or money 
transactions are not controlled. In addition, all software for virus 
protection (5D002) has been removed.

Category 6--Sensors and Lasers

    Under the acoustics section, controls for certain wide-swath 
bathymetric survey systems and terrestrial geophones have been removed. 
In addition, controls for towed acoustic hydrophone arrays and 
processing equipment for hydrophone arrays have been modified. Controls 
for bottom or bay cable systems (6A001) have been added. Under optical 
sensors, controls for specially designed components of image 
intensifier tubes (6A002) have been modified. Controls for monospectral 
imaging sensors have been added. Under optics, controls on certain 
optical filters and ``fluoride fiber'' cable (6A004) have been removed. 
Under lasers, certain carbon dioxide lasers, semiconductor lasers, ruby 
lasers, neodymium doped lasers and free electron lasers (6A005) have

[[Page 2454]]

been removed. Under radar, weather balloon tracking radars (6A008) have 
been removed. For production equipment, equipment for test, inspection 
and production of lasers (6B005) have been removed. In addition, 
controls on materials for optical fiber preforms for the manufacture of 
high birefringence fibers (6C002), materials for certain low optical 
absorption materials, and materials for optical fiber preforms for the 
manufacture of fluoride fibers (6C004) have been removed. Controls on 
software specially designed for bottom or bay cables have been added 
and controls on certain primary radar target data software (6D003) have 
been removed. Finally, controls for certain optical fabrication 
technology and technology for certain optical fibers (6E003) have been 
removed.

Category 7--Navigation and Avionics

    Controls on inertial navigation systems certified for use on 
``civil aircraft'' (7A003) have been removed. Also, controls for 
direction finder equipment (7A007), computer aided design (CAD) 
software (7D003), and technology for electric actuators for primary 
flight control and flight control optical sensor arrays (7E004) have 
been added.

Category 8--Marine

    Controls for certain underwater vision systems, certain 
photographic still cameras and certain light systems (8A002) have been 
relaxed. Controls on stirling cycle engine air independent power 
systems (8A002) have been clarified.

Category 9--Propulsion

    Under the section dealing with Test, Inspection and Production 
Equipment, several items have been removed, including automated 
equipment for measuring airfoil wall thickness, tooling/fixtures, and 
measuring equipment for hole drilling processing, ceramic core leaching 
equipment and ceramic shell burn out or firing equipment (9B001). 
Controls on brush seals have been narrowed by adding a control for a 
temperature limit (9B003) and expanded by adding tools, dies or 
fixtures for solid state joining of intermetallic airfoil-to-disk 
combinations for gas turbine engines (9B004). Transducers/strain 
gauges/accelerometers/thermocouples for vibration equipment (9B006) 
have also been removed. Accordingly, under software, controls for 
certain software for vibration test equipment as well as certain 
development/production software of test facilities for engines (9D004) 
have been removed. Finally, a few modifications have been made under 
technology for gas turbine engine components or systems and controls on 
helicopter power transfer systems or tilt rotor or tilt wing aircraft 
(9E003). Specifically, controls have been narrowed on technology for 
multiple domed combustors (9E003.a.2), the technology for gas bearing 
for gas turbine engine rotor assemblies (9E003.a.12), and the 
technology for helicopter, tilt rotor or tilt wing aircraft power 
transfer systems.
    All items removed from national security (NS) controls as a result 
of the Wassenaar List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies will continue 
to be controlled for antiterrorism (AT) reasons.
    Numerous entries that are contained on the Wassenaar List of Dual-
Use Goods and Technologies are subject to the export licensing 
authority of the Office of Defense Trade Controls, Department of State. 
This rule will list all entries that are controlled on the Wassenaar 
List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies, but will specify that those 
entries are under the licensing authority of the Office of Defense 
Trade Controls, Department of State.
    On March 25, 1996 (61 FR 12714), BXA revised the Commerce Control 
List by adopting the European Union (EU) numbering system and converted 
our former ECCNs to correspond accordingly. The changes adopted by this 
rule attempts to further harmonize the CCL with the EU List. This 
ensures that identical ECCNs on the CCL and the EU List will identify 
the same item(s). From an enforcement or customs perspective, this 
common numbering system simplifies export controls for all countries 
that harmonize to this control list. As a result of this harmonization 
exercise, it was discovered that certain differences exist between the 
EU List and the CCL and among agencies within the U.S., in terms of 
MTCR related controls. These differences predominately exist in the 
area of technology and software controls. For most of the entries, the 
EU text was adopted or modified to ensure that it comported to the 
intent of the MTCR Annex. For those technology and software entries 
where differences could not be resolved at the interagency level, it 
was agreed to maintain the control text for those entries as published 
in the March 25 rule, until these differences are resolved.
    To ensure that no overlap in controls exists among the regimes and 
that the Wassenaar Arrangement list did not decontrol items that are 
currently controlled on the MTCR Annex, references to certain missile 
technology controlled entries were included and clarification notes 
were added to aid the exporter.
    In addition, this rule will include ECCN entries for those MTCR 
items that are under the licensing authority of the Department of 
State, Office of Defense Trade Controls. Those items are specifically 
listed on the CCL to inform the exporter that the corresponding EU list 
entry for such items are under the licensing authority of the 
Department of State, Office of Defense Trade Controls.
    BXA is continuing a comprehensive review of the Commerce Control 
List (CCL) to account for items controlled by the Nuclear Suppliers 
Group (NSG), the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR), and the 
Australia Group (AG) and to correct errors published on March 25, 1996, 
and unavoidably reprinted in this version of the CCL. The review will 
be based in large part upon the comments received in response to the 
March 25 rule and upon ongoing efforts to harmonize the CCL with the 
EU's control list.

Saving Clause

    This rule revises the numbering and structure of certain entries on 
the Commerce Control List. For items under such entries and for April 
15, 1998, BXA will accept license applications for items described 
either by the entries in effect immediately before January 15, 1998 or 
the entries described in this rule. In addition, shipments of items 
removed from eligibility for export or reexport under a particular 
License Exception authorization or the designator NLR, as a result of 
this regulatory action, may continue to be exported or reexported under 
that License Exception authorization or designator until February 17, 
1998.

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. This interim rule has been determined to be significant for 
purposes of E.O. 12866.
    2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is 
required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty 
for failure to comply with a collection of information, subject to the 
requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), unless that 
collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control 
Number. This rule involves collections of information subject to the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) These 
collections has been approved by the Office of Management and Budget 
under control numbers 0694-0073, 0694-0086, and 0694-0088. This rule 
also contains a new collection-of-information requirement subject to

[[Page 2455]]

the PRA that has received emergency approval under OMB control number 
0694-xxxx. The new information requirement and estimated public burden 
hours include: recording responses (5 minutes each); filing responses 
(1 minute each); and transmitting responses to BXA (10 minutes per 
exporter). These estimates include the time for reviewing instructions, 
searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data 
needed, and completing and reviewing the collections of information. 
Send comments regarding these burden estimates or any other aspect of 
these collections of information, including suggestions for reducing 
the burden, to OMB Desk Officer, New Executive Office Building, 
Washington, DC 20503.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications 
sufficient to warrant preparation of a Federalism assessment under 
Executive Order 12612.
    4. The provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 
553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking, the opportunity for 
public participation, and a delay in effective date, are inapplicable 
because this regulation involves a military and foreign affairs 
function of the United States (Sec. 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). Further, no 
other law requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking and an 
opportunity for public comment be given for this interim rule. Because 
a notice of proposed rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment 
are not required to be given for this rule under 5 U.S.C. or by any 
other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility 
Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable.
    However, because of the importance of the issues raised by these 
regulations, this rule is issued in interim form and comments will be 
considered in the development of final regulations.
    Accordingly, the Department encourages interested persons who wish 
to comment to do so at the earliest possible time to permit the fullest 
consideration of their views.
    The period for submission of comments will close February 17, 1998. 
The Department will consider all comments received before the close of 
the comment period in developing final regulations. Comments received 
after the end of the comment period will be considered if possible, but 
their consideration cannot be assured. The Department will not accept 
public comments accompanied by a request that a part or all of the 
material be treated confidentially because of its business proprietary 
nature or for any other reason. The Department will return such 
comments and materials to the person submitting the comments and will 
not consider them in the development of final regulations. All public 
comments on these regulations will be a matter of public record and 
will be available for public inspection and copying. In the interest of 
accuracy and completeness, the Department requires comments in written 
form.
    Oral comments must be followed by written memoranda, which will 
also be a matter of public record and will be available for public 
review and copying. Communications from agencies of the United States 
Government or foreign governments will not be made available for public 
inspection.
    The public record concerning these regulations will be maintained 
in the Bureau of Export Administration Freedom of Information Records 
Inspection Facility, Room 4525, Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20230. Records in this 
facility, including written public comments and memoranda summarizing 
the substance of oral communications, may be inspected and copied in 
accordance with regulations published in Part 4 of Title 15 of the Code 
of Federal Regulations. Information about the inspection and copying of 
records at the facility may be obtained from Margaret Cornejo, Bureau 
of Export Administration Freedom of Information Officer, at the above 
address or by calling (202) 482-5653.

    (a) Scope. This section outlines special reporting requirements for 
exports of certain commodities, software and technology controlled 
under the Wassenaar Arrangement. Such reports must be submitted to BXA 
semiannually in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (f) of this 
section, and records of all exports subject to the reporting 
requirements of this section must be kept in accordance with part 762 
of the EAR. This section does not require reports for reexports.
    (b) Requirements. You must submit two (2) copies of each report 
required under the provisions of this section and maintain accurate 
supporting records (see Sec. 762.2(b) of the EAR) for all exports of 
items specified in paragraph (c) of this section under any of the 
following License Exceptions authorized by part 740 of the EAR: License 
Exceptions GBS, CIV, TSR, LVS, CTP, and GOV. For purposes of this part 
743, ``you'' has the same meaning as ``U.S. exporter'', as defined in 
part 772 of the EAR.
    (c) Items for which reports are required. (1) You must submit 
reports to BXA under the provisions of this section only for exports of 
items controlled under the following ECCNs:
    (i) Category 1: 1A002, 1C007.c and .d, 1C010.c and .d, 1D002, 
1E001, 1E002.e, and 1E002.f.;
    (ii) Category 2: 2B001.a or .b (certain items only; see Note to 
this paragraph) 2B001.f, 2B003, 2D001, 2E001, and 2E002;

    Note to paragraph (c)(1)(ii): The following are not controlled 
for NP reasons: turning machines controlled by 2B001.a with a 
capacity equal to or less than 35 mm diameter; bar machines 
(Swissturn), limited to machining only bar feed through, if maximum 
bar diameter is equal to or less than 42 mm and there is no 
capability of mounting chucks (machines may have drilling and/or 
milling capabilities for machining parts with diameters less than 42 
mm); or milling machines controlled by 2B001.b with x-axis travel 
greater than two meters and overall ``positioning accuracy'' on the 
x-axis more (worse) than 0.030 mm. Therefore, exports of such items 
under License Exception GOV are subject to reporting requirements.

Related Definitions: For the purpose of this entry, the term 
``fibrous or filamentary materials'' is restricted to continuous 
``monofilaments'', ``yarns'', ``rovings'', ``tows'' or ``tapes''.
Definitions for other terms used in this entry:
Filament or Monofilament is the smallest increment of fiber, usually 
several m in diameter.
Strand is a bundle of filaments (typically over 200) arranged 
approximately parallel.
Roving is a bundle (typically 12-120) of approximately parallel 
strands.
Yarn is a bundle of twisted strands.
Tow is a bundle of filaments, usually approximately parallel.
Tape is a material constructed of interlaced or unidirectional 
filaments, strands, rovings, tows or yarns, etc., usually 
preimpregnated with resin.
Specific modulus is the Young's modulus in N/m2 divided 
by the specific weight in N/m3, measured at a temperature 
of 23  2  deg.C and a relative humidity of 50 
 5 percent.
Specific tensile strength is the ultimate tensile strength in N/
m2 divided by specific weight in N/m3, 
measured at a temperature of 23  2  deg.C and a relative 
humidity of 50  5 percent.

consignee per calendar year. Multiple sample shipments, in any 
quantity, not exceeding the totals indicated in this paragraph may 
be exported without a license, in accordance with the provisions of 
this Note 1. A consignee that receives a sample shipment under this 
exclusion may not resell, transfer or reexport the sample shipment, 
but may use the sample shipment for any other legal purpose 
unrelated to the chemical weapons. However, a sample shipment 
received under this exclusion remains subject to all General 
Prohibitions including the end-use restriction described in 
Sec. 744.4 of the EAR.
    d. The exporter is required to submit a quarterly written report 
for shipments of samples made under this Note 1. The report must be 
on company letterhead stationery (titled ``Report of Sample 
Shipments of Chemical Precursors'' at the top of the first page) and 
identify the chemical(s), Chemical Abstract Service Registry 
(C.A.S.) number(s), quantity(ies), the ultimate consignee's name and 
address, and the date exported. The report must be sent to the U.S. 
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Export Administration, P.O. Box 
273, Washington, DC 20044, Attn: ``Report of Sample Shipments of 
Chemical Precursors''.

certain concentrations of precursor and intermediate chemicals are 
subject to the following licensing requirements:
    a. A license is required, regardless of the concentrations in 
the mixture, for the following chemicals: 0-Ethyl-2-
diisopropylaminoethyl methylphosphonite (QL) (C.A.S.#57856-11-8), 
Ethylphosphonyl difluoride (C.A.S.#753-98-0) and Methylphosphonyl 
difluoride (C.A.S.#676-99-3);
    b. A license is required when at least one of the following 
chemicals constitutes more than 10 percent of the weight of the 
mixture on a solvent free basis: Arsenic trichloride (C.A.S.#7784-
34-1), Benzilic acid (C.A.S.#76-93-7), Diethyl ethylphosphonate 
(C.A.S.#78-38-6), Diethyl methylphosphonite (C.A.S.#15715-41-0),

    c. A license is required when at least one of all other 
chemicals in the List of Items Controlled constitutes more than 25 
percent of the weight of the mixture on a solvent free basis 
(related ECCN: 1C995); and
    d. A license is not required under this entry for mixtures when 
the controlled chemical is a normal ingredient in consumer goods 
packaged for retail sale for personal use. Such consumer goods are 
controlled by ECCN EAR99.
    e. Calculation of concentrations of AG-controlled chemicals.
    1. Usual Commercial Purposes. In calculating the percentage of 
an AG controlled chemical in a mixture (solution), any other 
chemical must be excluded if it was not added for usual commercial 
purposes, but was added for the sole purpose of circumventing the 
Export Administration Regulations.
    2. ``Solvent Free Basis Requirement.'' When calculating the 
percentage, by weight, of components in a chemical mixture, you must 
exclude from the calculation any component of the mixture that acts 
as a solvent.
    3. Solvent--For purposes of this ECCN ``A substance capable of 
dissolving another substance to form a uniformly dispersed mixture 
(solution)''.
     Solvents are liquids at standard temperature and 
pressure (STP).
     In no instance is an AG controlled chemical considered 
a ``solvent''.
     All ingredients of mixtures are expressed in terms of 
weight.
     The solvent component of the mixture converts it into a 
solution.
    3. TRACE QUANTITIES: a. A license is required for mixtures 
containing any amount (including trace quantities) for the following 
chemicals: 0-Ethyl-2-diisopropylaminoethyl methyl phosphonite (QL) 
(C.A.S. #57856-11-8), Ethyl phosphonyl difluoride (C.A.S. #753-98-
0), and Methyl phosphonyl difluoride (C.A.S. #676-99-3).

Requirements Note, a license is not required under this entry for 
mixtures that contain a cumulative total concentration of no more 
than 10,000 parts by weight (pbw) per million of all precursor or 
intermediate chemicals listed in this entry. The calculation for 
this paragraph (3)(b) should not be done on a solvent-free basis 
(related ECCN: 1C995).
    c. Countries Not Eligible: The following countries are not 
eligible for exports under this Trace Quantities Note: Cuba, Iran, 
Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria.
    4. COMPOUNDS: A license is not required under this entry for 
chemical compounds created with any chemicals identified in this 
ECCN 1C350, unless those compounds are also identified in this 
entry.

    Technical Notes: 1. For purposes of this entry, a ``mixture'' is 
defined as a solid, liquid or gaseous product made up of two or more 
components that do not react together under normal storage 
conditions.
    2. The scope of this control applicable to Hydrogen Fluoride 
(Item 25 in List of Items Controlled) includes its liquid, gaseous, 
and aqueous phases, and hydrates.
    3. All de minimis exclusions of this entry extend to all 
mixtures including those that contain no solvents.
    4. A Solvent is defined as a substance capable of dissolving 
another substance to form a uniformly dispersed mixture (solution).

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. Resistive Heating PVD employs electrically resistive heating 
sources capable of producing a controlled and uniform flux of 
evaporated coating species;
    3. ``Laser'' Evaporation uses either pulsed or continuous wave 
``laser'' beams to heat 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.


[[Page 2500]]


    Note: This definition does not include random cathodic arc 
deposition with non-biased substrates.

    c. 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 to be 
deposited 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.
    d. 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. 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.
    e. 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 carried out underwater.

    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.

    f. 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.
    g. 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.

    h. 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.

Unit: Number
Related Controls: This entry does not control detonators using only 
primary explosives, such as lead azide.
Related Definition: The detonators of concern all utilize a small 
electrical conductor (bridge, bridge wire or foil) that explosively 
vaporizes when a fast, high-current electrical pulse is passed 
through it. In nonslapper types, the exploding conductor starts a 
chemical detonation in a contacting high-explosive material such as 
PETN (Pentaerythritoltetranitrate). In slapper detonators, the 
explosive vaporization of the electrical conductor drives a flyer or 
slapper across a gap and the impact of the slapper on an explosive 
starts a chemical detonation. The slapper in some designs is driven 
by a magnetic force. The term exploding foil detonator may refer to 
either an EB or a slapper-type detonator. Also, the word initiator 
is sometimes used in place of the word detonator.
Items: a. Electrically driven explosive detonators, the following:
    a.1. Exploding bridge (EB);
    a.2. Exploding bridge wire (EBW);
    a.3. Slapper;
    a.4. Exploding foil initiators (EFI);
    b. Arrangements using single or multiple detonators designed to 
nearly simultaneously initiate an explosive surface (over greater 
than 5000 mm\2\) from a single firing signal (with an initiation 
timing spread over the surface of less than 2.5 microseconds).

functions limited to those required for the other equipment is 
determined by the control status of the other equipment even if it 
exceeds the ``principal element'' criterion.
    N.B. 2: For the control status of ``digital computers'' or 
related equipment for telecommunications equipment, see Category 5, 
Part 1 (Telecommunications).
    c. The ``technology'' for the ``digital computers'' and related 
equipment is determined by 4E.
    a. Designed or modified for ``fault tolerance'';

    Note: For the purposes of 4A003.a., ``digital computers'' and 
related equipment are not considered to be designed or modified for 
``fault tolerance'' if they utilize any of the following:

    1. Error detection or correction algorithms in ``main storage'';
    2. The interconnection of two ``digital computers'' so that, if 
the active central processing unit fails, an idling but mirroring 
central processing unit can continue the system's functioning;
    3. The interconnection of two central processing units by data 
channels or by use of shared storage to permit one central 
processing unit to perform other work until the second central 
processing unit fails, at which time the first central processing 
unit takes over in order to continue the system's functioning; or
    4. The synchronization of two central processing units by 
``software'' so that one central processing unit recognizes when the 
other central processing unit fails and recovers tasks from the 
failing unit.
    b. ``Digital computers'' having a ``composite theoretical 
performance'' (``CTP'') exceeding 2,000 million theoretical 
operations per second (Mtops);
    c. ``Electronic assemblies'' specially designed or modified to 
be capable of enhancing performance by aggregation of ``computing 
elements'' (``CEs'') so that the ``CTP'' of the aggregation exceeds 
the limit in 4A003.b.;

    Note 1: 4A003.c applies only to ``electronic assemblies'' and 
programmable interconnections not exceeding the limit in 4A003.b. 
when shipped as unintegrated ``electronic assemblies''. It does not 
apply to ``electronic assemblies'' inherently limited by nature of 
their design for use as related equipment controlled by 4A003.d, 
4A003.e or 4A003.f.

    Note 2: 4A003.c does not control ``electronic assemblies'' 
specially designed for a product or family of products whose maximum 
configuration does not exceed the limit of 4A003.b.

    d. Graphics accelerators and graphics coprocessors exceeding a 
``three dimensional Vector Rate'' of 3,000,000;
    e. Equipment performing analog-to-digital conversions exceeding 
the limits in 3A001.a.5;
    f. Equipment containing ``terminal interface equipment'' 
exceeding the limits in 5A001.b.3;

    Note: For the purposes of 4A003.f, ``terminal interface 
equipment'' includes ``local area network'' interfaces and other 
communications interfaces. ``Local area network'' interfaces are 
evaluated as ``network access controllers''.

    g. Equipment specially designed to provide external 
interconnection of ``digital computers'' or associated equipment 
that allows communications at data rates exceeding 80 Mbyte/s.

    Note: 4A003.g does not control internal interconnection 
equipment (e.g., backplanes, buses) or passive interconnection 
equipment.

Outline of ``CTP'' Calculation Method

    ``CTP'' is a measure of computational performance given in 
Mtops. In calculating the ``CTP'' of an aggregation of ``CEs'' the 
following three steps are required:
    1. Calculate the effective calculating rate R for each ``CE'';
    2. Apply the word length adjustment (L) to the effective 
calculating rate (R), resulting in a Theoretical Performance (TP) 
for each ``CE'';
    3. If there is more than one ``CE'', combine the TPs, resulting 
in a ``CTP'' for the aggregation.
    Details for these steps are given in the following sections.

    Note 1: For aggregations of multiple ``CEs'' that have both 
shared and unshared memory subsystems, the calculation of ``CTP'' is 
completed hierarchically, in two steps: first, aggregate the groups 
of ``CEs'' sharing memory; second, calculate the ``CTP'' of the 
groups using the calculation method for multiple ``CEs'' not sharing 
memory.
    Note 2: ``CEs'' that are limited to input/output and peripheral 
functions (e.g., disk drive, communication and video display 
controllers) are not aggregated into the ``CTP'' calculation.

    The following table shows the method of calculating the 
Effective Calculating Rate R for each ``CE'':

For special logic processors not using   R = R' * WL/64. Where R' is the
 any of the specified arithmetic or       number of results per second, 
 logic operations.                        WL is the number of bits upon 
                                          which the logic operation     
                                          occurs, and 64 is a factor to 
                                          normalize to a 64 bit         
                                          operation.                    
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Note W: For a pipelined ``CE'' capable of executing up to one 
arithmetic or logic operation every clock cycle after the pipeline 
is full, a pipelined rate can be established. The effective 
calculating rate (R) for such a ``CE'' is the faster of the 
pipelined rate or non-pipelined execution rate.
    Note X: For a ``CE'' that performs multiple operations of a 
specific type in a single cycle (e.g., two additions per cycle or 
two identical logic operations per cycle), the execution time t is 
given by:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR15JA98.000

    ``CEs'' that perform different types of arithmetic or logic 
operations in a single machine cycle are to be treated as multiple 
separate ``CEs'' performing simultaneously (e.g., a ``CE'' 
performing an addition and a multiplication in one cycle is to be 
treated as two ``CEs'', the first performing an addition in one 
cycle and the second performing a multiplication in one cycle). If a 
single ``CE'' has both scalar function and vector function, use the 
shorter execution time value.

    Note Y: For the ``CE'' that does not implement FP add or FP 
multiply, but that performs FP divide:

[[Page 2518]]

[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR15JA98.001


    If the ``CE'' implements FP reciprocal but not FP add, FP 
multiply or FP divide, then
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR15JA98.002

    If none of the specified instructions is implemented, the 
effective FP rate is 0.

    Note Z: In simple logic operations, a single instruction 
performs a single logic manipulation of no more than two operands of 
given lengths. In complex logic operations, a single instruction 
performs multiple logic manipulations to produce one or more results 
from two or more operands.
    Rates should be calculated for all supported operand lengths 
considering both pipelined operations (if supported), and non-
pipelined operations using the fastest executing instruction for 
each operand length based on:
    1. Pipelined or register-to-register operations. Exclude 
extraordinarily short execution times generated for operations on a 
predetermined operand or operands (for example, multiplication by 0 
or 1). If no register-to-register operations are implemented, 
continue with (2).
    2. The faster of register-to-memory or memory-to-register 
operations; if these also do not exist, then continue with (3).
    3. Memory-to-memory.
    In each case above, use the shortest execution time certified by 
the manufacturer.
    Step 2: TP for each supported operand length WL.
    Adjust the effective rate R (or R') by the word length 
adjustment L as follows:

TP = R * L, where L = (1/3 + WL/96)

    Note: The word length WL used in these calculations is the 
operand length in bits. (If an operation uses operands of different 
lengths, select the largest word length.) The combination of a 
mantissa ALU and an exponent ALU of a floating point processor or 
unit is considered to be one ``CE'' with a Word Length (WL) equal to 
the number of bits in the data representation (typically 32 or 64) 
for purposes of the ``CTP'' calculation.

    This adjustment is not applied to specialized logic processors 
that do not use XOR instructions. In this case TP = R.
    Select the maximum resulting value of TP for:

Each XP-only ``CE'' (Rxp);
Each FP-only ``CE'' (Rfp);
Each combined FP and XP ``CE'' (R);
Each simple logic processor not implementing any of the specified 
arithmetic operations; and
Each special logic processor not using any of the specified 
arithmetic or logic operations.

    Step 3: ``CTP'' for aggregations of ``CEs'', including CPUs.
    For a CPU with a single ``CE'', ``CTP'' = TP (for ``CEs'' 
performing both fixed and floating point operations TP = max 
(TPfp, TPxp))
    ``CTP'' for aggregations of multiple ``CEs'' operating 
simultaneously is calculated as follows:

    Note 1: For aggregations that do not allow all of the ``CEs'' to 
run simultaneously, the possible combination of ``CEs'' that 
provides the largest ``CTP'' should be used. The TP of each 
contributing ``CE'' is to be calculated at its maximum value 
theoretically possible before the ``CTP'' of the combination is 
derived.
    N.B.: To determine the possible combinations of simultaneously 
operating ``CEs'', generate an instruction sequence that initiates 
operations in multiple ``CEs'', beginning with the slowest ``CE'' 
(the one needing the largest number of cycles to complete its 
operation) and ending with the fastest ``CE''. At each cycle of the 
sequence, the combination of ``CEs'' that are in operation during 
that cycle is a possible combination. The instruction sequence must 
take into account all hardware and/or architectural constraints on 
overlapping operations.

    Note 2: A single integrated circuit chip or board assembly may 
contain multiple ``CEs''.
    Note 3: Simultaneous operations are assumed to exist when the 
computer manufacturer claims concurrent, parallel or simultaneous 
operation or execution in a manual or brochure for the computer.
    Note 4: ``CTP'' values are not to be aggregated for ``CE'' 
combinations (inter) connected by ``Local Area Networks'', Wide Area 
Networks, I/O shared connections/devices, I/O controllers and any 
communication interconnection implemented by ``software''.
    Note 5: ``CTP'' values must be aggregated for multiple ``CEs'' 
specially designed to enhance performance by aggregation, operating 
simultaneously and sharing memory,--or multiple memory/''CE''--
combinations operating simultaneously utilizing specially designed 
hardware.

    This aggregation does not apply to ``electronic assemblies'' 
described by 4A003.d.

``CTP''=TP1+C2 * TP2+* * 
*+Cn * TPn,

where the TPs are ordered by value, with TP1 being the 
highest, TP2 being the second highest, * * *, and 
TPn being the lowest. Ci is a coefficient 
determined by the strength of the interconnection between ``CEs'', 
as follows:
    For multiple ``CEs'' operating simultaneously and sharing 
memory:

C2=C3=C4=* * *=Cn=0.75

    Note 1: When the ``CTP'' calculated by the above method does not 
exceed 194 Mtops, the following formula may be used to calculate 
Ci:
[GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TR15JA98.003

where m=the number of ``CEs'' or groups of ``CEs'' sharing access.
    Provided:
    1. The TP1 of each ``CE'' or group of ``CEs'' does 
not exceed 30 Mtops;
    2. The ``CEs'' or groups of ``CEs'' share access to main memory 
(excluding cache memory) over a single channel; and
    3. Only one ``CE'' or group of ``CEs'' can have use of the 
channel at any given time.
    N.B.: This does not apply to items controlled under Category 3.

    Note 2: ``CEs'' share memory if they access a common segment of 
solid state memory. This memory may include cache memory, main 
memory or other internal memory. Peripheral memory devices such as 
disk drives, tape drives or RAM disks are not included.

    For Multiple ``CEs'' or groups of ``CEs'' not sharing memory, 
interconnected by one or more data channels:

Ci=0.75 * ki (i=2, * * *  , 32) (see Note 
below)
    =0.60 * ki (i=33, * * *, 64)
    =0.45 * ki (i=65, * * *, 256)
    =0.30 * ki (i >256)
    The value of Ci is based on the number of ``CE''s, 
not the number of nodes.

where
    ki=min (Si/Kr, 1), and
    Kr=normalizing factor of 20 MByte/s.
    Si=sum of the maximum data rates (in units of MByte/
s) for all data channels connected to the ith ``CE'' or 
group of ``CEs'' sharing memory.

    When calculating a Ci for a group of ``CEs'', the 
number of the first ``CE'' in a group determines the proper limit 
for Ci. For example, in an aggregation of groups 
consisting of 3 ``CEs'' each, the 22nd group will contain 
``CE''64, ``CE''65 and ``CE''66. 
The proper limit for Ci for this group is 0.60.
    Aggregation (of ``CEs'' or groups of ``CEs'') should be from the 
fastest-to-slowest; i.e.:

TP1 TP2 * * * . 
>TPn, and

in the case of TPi=TPi+1, from the 
largest to smallest; i.e.:

    Ci  Ci+1

    Note: The ki factor is not to be applied to ``CEs'' 2 
to 12 if the TPi of the ``CE'' or group of ``CEs'' is 
more than 50 Mtops; i.e., Ci for ``CEs'' 2 to 12 is 0.75.

times the logarithm to the base 10 of the ratio of rms output 
voltage to a 1 V rms reference, when the hydrophone sensor, without 
a pre-amplifier, is placed in a plane wave acoustic field with an 
rms pressure of 1 Pa. For example, a hydrophone of -160 Db 
(reference 1 V per Pa) would yield an output voltage of 
10-8 V in such a field, while one of -180 Db sensitivity 
would yield only 10-9 V output. Thus, -160 Db is better 
than -180 Db.

Related Definitions: (1) Drift rate is defined as the time rate of 
output deviation from the desired output. It consists of random and 
systematic components and is expressed as an equivalent angular 
displacement per unit time with respect to inertial space. (2) 
Stability is defined as standard deviation (1 sigma) of the 
variation of a particular parameter from its calibrated value 
measured under stable temperature conditions. This can be expressed 
as a function of time.

level I.
Related Definition: (1) Maintenance Level I: The failure of an 
inertial navigation unit is detected on the aircraft by indications 
from the Control and Display Unit (CDU) or by the status message 
from the corresponding sub-system. By following the manufacturer's 
manual, the cause of the failure may be localized at the level of 
the malfunctioning line replaceable unit (LRU). The operator then 
removes the LRU and replaces it with a spare. (2) Maintenance Level 
II: The defective LRU is sent to the maintenance workshop (the 
manufacturer's or that of the operator responsible for level II 
maintenance). At the maintenance workshop, the malfunctioning LRU is 
tested by various appropriate means to verify and localize the 
defective shop replaceable assembly (SRA) module responsible for the 
failure. This SRA is removed and replaced by an operative spare. The 
defective SRA (or possibly the complete LRU) is then shipped to the 
manufacturer. Maintenance Level II does not include the removal of 
controlled accelerometers or gyro sensors from the SRA.

Related Controls: (1) See also 9A104 (2) This entry describes space 
launch vehicles (not including their payloads) and other 
``spacecraft''. (3) Commercial communications satellites are subject 
to Commerce licensing jurisdiction even if they include the 
individual munitions list systems, components, or parts identified 
on the United States Munitions List (USML). In all other cases, 
these systems, components, or parts remain on the USML, except that 
satellite fuel, ground support equipment, test equipment, payload 
adapter/interface hardware, replacement parts for the preceding 
items, and non-embedded, solid propellant orbit transfer orbit 
transfer engines (``kick motors'') are subject to Commerce licensing 
jurisdiction (and not controlled on the USML) when they are to be 
utilized for the specific commercial communications satellite 
launch, provided the solid propellant ``kick motor'' being utilized 
is not specifically designed or modified for military use or capable 
of being restarted after achievement of mission orbit (such orbit 
transfer engines are always controlled on USML). Technical data (as 
defined in 120.10 of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations 
(ITAR)) and defense services (as defined in 120.9 of the ITAR) 
related to the systems, components, or parts on the USML are always 
controlled under the USML, even when the satellite itself is 
licensed by the Department of Commerce. (4) Military communications 
satellites or multi-mission satellites, including commercial 
communications satellites having additional non-communication 
mission(s) or payload(s) are under the jurisdiction of the 
Department of State. (5) Other ``spacecraft'' not subject to the 
export licensing authority of the U.S. Department of State, Office 
of Defense Trade Controls under 22 CFR part 121. This entry includes 
the international space station being developed, launched and 
operated under the supervision of the U.S. National Aeronautics and 
Space Administration. Exporters requesting a license from the 
Department of Commerce for spacecraft other than the international 
space station or a commercial communications satellite specified in 
9A004 must provide a statement from the Department of State, Office 
of Defense Trade Controls, verifying that the item intended for 
export is under the licensing jurisdiction of the Department of 
Commerce. (6) All other spacecraft, including all other satellites 
not controlled under 9A004 and components, parts, accessories, 
attachments, associated equipment, and ground support equipment 
therefor are subject to the export licensing authority of the 
Department of State. (7) Items on the USML that are included in a 
commercial communications satellite to be exported under a Commerce 
license must be specifically listed on the Commerce license 
application. Such items when not included in a specific commercial 
communications satellite are under the jurisdiction of the 
Department of State. (8) Technical data provided to the launch 
provider (form, fit, function, mass, electrical, mechanical, 
dynamic/environmental, telemetry, safety, facility, launch pad 
access, and launch parameters) for commercial communications 
satellites that describe the interfaces for mating of the satellite 
to the launch vehicle and parameters for launch (e.g. orbit, timing) 
of the satellite, are under Commerce jurisdiction. Other technical 
data and all defense services and technical assistance for satellite 
and/or launch vehicles, including compatibility, integration, or 
processing data are controlled and subject to licensing by the 
Department of State, in accordance with 22 CFR parts 120 through 
130. Approval for such technical assistance will require a Technical 
Assistance Agreement (TAA) and may require U.S. Government 
oversight. (9) Once a satellite is launched, items remaining 
unlaunched are required to be returned immediately to

[[Page 2547]]

the United States. If the satellite launch is canceled or unduly 
delayed, the satellite and all support equipment must be returned 
immediately to the United States. (10) Detailed design, development, 
production, or manufacturing data for all spacecraft, including 
satellites, regardless of which agency has jurisdiction over the 
export, and all systems components, parts, accessories, attachments, 
and associated equipment (including ground support equipment) 
specifically designed or modified for articles on the USML 
(including software source code and operating algorithms) are 
subject to licensing by the Department of State. This does not 
include that level of technical data (including marketing data) 
necessary and reasonable for a purchaser to have assurance that a 
U.S.-built item intended to operate in space has been designed, 
manufactured and tested in conformance with specified contract 
requirements (e.g., operational performance, reliability, lifetime, 
product quality, or delivery expectations) as well as data necessary 
for normal in-orbit satellite operations, to evaluate in-orbit 
anomalies, and to operate and maintain associated ground station 
equipment (except encryption hardware). (11) For the control status 
of products contained in ``spacecraft'' payloads, see the 
appropriate categories
Related Definitions: Transferring registration or operational 
control to any foreign person of any commercial communications 
satellite controlled by this entry must be authorized on a license 
issued by the Bureau of Export Administration. This requirement
