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

The United States is taking this action in order to pursue improved 
overall relations.

DATES: This rule is effective June 19, 2000. Comments must be received 
no later than July 19, 2000.

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

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: James A. Lewis, Director, Office of 
Strategic Trade, at (202) 482-0092.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 17, 1999, the President announced his decision to ease 
sanctions against North Korea. The United States is taking this action, 
which is consistent with the 1994 Agreed Framework and the 1999 Perry 
Report, in order to pursue improved overall relations.
    Under this new policy, most items subject to the EAR designated as 
EAR99 may be exported or reexported to North Korea without a license. 
In addition, BXA is changing the licensing policy for certain items on 
the Commerce Control List (CCL) destined to North Korean civil end-
users from a policy of denial to case-by-case review.
    This regulation adds certain categories of items to the CCL for 
which a license will be required to North Korea. Consequently, this 
regulation identifies certain Export Control Classification Numbers 
(ECCNs) that are controlled for anti-terrorism (AT) reasons to North 
Korea only. These new ECCNs do not refer to any column on the Country 
Chart and therefore exporters are not required to consult the Country 
Chart in Supplement No. 1 to part 738 to determine licensing 
requirements for these entries.
    This easing of sanctions does not affect U.S. anti-terrorism or 
nonproliferation export controls on North Korea, including end-user and 
end-use controls maintained under the Enhanced Proliferation Control 
Initiative. This does not relieve exporters or reexporters of their 
obligations under General Prohibition 5 in Sec. 736.2(b)(5) of the EAR 
which provides that, ``you may not, without a license, knowingly export 
or reexport any item subject to the EAR to an end-user or end-use that 
is prohibited by part 744 of the EAR.'' BXA strongly urges the use of 
Supplement No. 3 to part 732 of the EAR, ``BXA's ``Know Your Customer'' 
Guidance and Red Flags'' when exporting or reexporting to North Korea.
    This rule does not affect the export license denial policy imposed 
under the Arms Export Control Act, as amended, and the Export 
Administration Act of 1979, as amended, in place against Changgwang 
Sinyong Corporation and its subunits, successors, and affiliated 
companies, and certain sectors of North Korean government-related 
activity, set forth in 63 FR 24585 (May 4, 1998) and more recently in 
65 FR 20239 (April 14, 2000). This license denial policy requires BXA 
to deny license applications submitted for exports to Changgwang 
Sinyong Corporation and the related entities listed above. This entity 
is not on the Entity List (see Supp. No. 4 to part 744) and does not 
appear on the list of projects in Supp. No. 1 to part 740 which have 
the effect of triggering a license requirement for items subject to the 
EAR (e.g., including all items classified as EAR99).
    Although the Export Administration Act (EAA) expired on August 20, 
1994, the President invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers 
Act and continued in effect the EAR, and, to the extent permitted by 
law, the provisions of the EAA in Executive Order 12924 of August 19, 
1994, as extended by the President's notices of August 15, 1995 (60 FR 
42767), August 14, 1996 (61 FR 42527), August 13, 1997 (62 FR 43629), 
August 13, 1998 (63 FR 44121), and August 10, 1999 (64 F.R. 44101).

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. This interim rule has been determined to be not significant for 
purposes of Executive Order 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 have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget 
under control number 0694-0088.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications 
sufficient to warrant preparation of a Federalism assessment under 
Executive Order 13132.
    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. See 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 July 19, 2000. 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

[[Page 38149]]

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 6881, Department of Commerce, 14th Street and 
Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 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 the Bureau of Export 
Administration Freedom of Information Officer, at the above address or 
by calling (202) 482-0500.

    26. Part 742 is revised by adding new Sec. 742.19 to read as 
follows:


Sec. 742.19  Anti-terrorism: North Korea

    (a) License requirements. (1) All items on the Commerce Control 
List (CCL) (i.e., with a designation other than EAR 99) require a 
license for export or reexport to North Korea, except ECCNs 0A988 and 
0A989. This includes all items controlled for AT reasons, including any 
item on the CCL containing AT column 1 or AT column 2 in the Country 
Chart column of the License Requirements section of an ECCN; and ECCNS 
0A986, 0A999, 0B986, 0B999, 0D999, 1A999, 1B999, 1C995, 1C999, 1D999, 
2A994, 2B994, 2C994, 2A999, 2B999, 3A999, and 6A999.
    (2) The Secretary of State has designated North Korea as a country 
whose Government has repeatedly provided support for acts of 
international terrorism.
    (3) In support of U.S. foreign policy on terrorism-supporting 
countries, BXA maintains two types of anti-terrorism controls on the 
export and reexport of items described in Supplement 2 to part 742.
    (i) Items described in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(5) of 
Supplement No. 2 to part 742 are controlled under section 6(j) of the 
Export Administration Act, as amended (EAA), if destined to military, 
police, intelligence or other sensitive end-users.
    (ii) Items described in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(5) of 
Supplement No. 2 to part 742 destined to non-sensitive end-users, as 
well as items described in paragraph (c)(6) through (c)(44) to all end-
users, are controlled to North Korea under section 6(a) of the EAA. 
(See Supplement No. 2 to part 742 for more information on items 
controlled under sections 6(a) and 6(j) of the EAA and Sec. 750.6 of 
the EAR for procedures for processing license applications for items 
controlled under EAA section 6(j).)
    (b) Licensing policy. (1) Applications for export and reexport to 
all end-users in North Korea of the following items will generally be 
denied:
    (i) Items controlled for chemical and biological weapons 
proliferation reasons to any destination. These items contain CB Column 
1, CB Column 2, or CB Column 3 in the Country Chart column of the 
``License Requirements'' section of an ECCN on the CCL.
    (ii) Items controlled for missile proliferation reasons to any 
destination. These items have an MT Column 1 in the Country Chart 
column of the ``License Requirements'' section of an ECCN on the CCL.
    (iii) Items controlled for nuclear weapons proliferation reasons to 
any destination. These items contain NP Column 1 or NP Column 2 in the 
Country Chart column of the ``License Requirements'' section of an ECCN 
on the CCL.
    (iv) Items controlled for national security reasons to any 
destination. These items contain NS Column 1 or NS Column 2 in the 
Country Chart column of the ``License Requirements'' section of an ECCN 
on the CCL.
    (v) Military-related items controlled for national security reasons 
to any destination. These items contain NS Column 1 in the Country 
Chart column of the ``License Requirements'' section in an ECCN on the 
CCL and are controlled by equipment or material entries ending in the 
number ``18.''
    (vi) All aircraft (powered and unpowered), helicopters, engines, 
and related spare parts and components. Such items contain an NS Column 
1, NS Column 2, MT Column 1, or AT Column 1 in the Country Chart column 
of the ``License Requirements'' section of an ECCN on the CCL.
    (vii) Cryptographic, cryptoanalytic, and crypto-logic items 
controlled any destination. These are items that contain an NS Column 
1, NS Column 2, AT Column 1 or AT Column 2 in the Country Chart column 
of the ``License Requirements'' section of an ECCN on the CCL.
    (viii) Submersible systems controlled under ECCN 8A992.

3B991.
    (xvi) Digital computers with a CTP above 2000.
    (xvii) Microprocessors with a CTP of 550 or above.
    (2) Applications for export and reexport to North Korea of all 
other items described in paragraph (a) of this section, and not 
described by paragraph (b)(1) of this section, will generally be denied 
if the export or reexport is destined to a military end-user or for 
military end-use. Applications for non-military end-users or for non-
military end-uses will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
    (3) Applications for export and reexport to North Korea of items 
described in paragraphs (c)(12), (c)(24), (c)(34), (c)(37), (c)(38), 
and (c)(44) of Supplement No. 2 to part 742 will generally be denied if 
the export or reexport is destined to nuclear end-

[[Page 38152]]

users or nuclear end-uses. Applications for non-nuclear end-users or 
for non-nuclear end-uses, excluding items described in (c)(24)(iv)(A) 
of Supplement No. 2 to part 742, will be considered on a case-by-case 
basis.
    (4) License applications for items reviewed under section 6(a) 
controls will also be reviewed to determine the applicability of 
section 6(j) controls to the transaction. When it is determined that an 
export or reexport could make a significant contribution to the 
military potential of North Korea, including its military logistics 
capability, or could enhance North Korea's ability to support acts of 
international terrorism, the Secretaries of State and Commerce will 
notify the Congress 30 days prior to issuance of a license.
    27. Supplement No. 2 to Part 742 is revised to read as follows:

Supplement No. 2 to Part 742--Anti-Terrorism Controls: Iran, North 
Korea, Syria and Sudan Contract Sanctity Dates and Related Policies

    Note: Exports and reexports of items in performance of contracts 
entered into before the applicable contract sanctity date(s) will be 
eligible for review on a case-by-case basis or other applicable 
licensing policies that were in effect prior to the contract 
sanctity date. The contract sanctity dates set forth in this 
Supplement are for the guidance of exporters. Contract sanctity 
dates are established in the course of the imposition of foreign 
policy controls on specific items and are the relevant dates for the 
purpose of licensing determinations involving such items. If you 
believe that a specific contract sanctity date is applicable to your 
transaction, you should include all relevant information with your 
license application. BXA will determine any applicable contract 
sanctity date at the time an application with relevant supporting 
documents is submitted.


    (a) Terrorist-supporting countries. The Secretary of State has 
designated Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria as 
countries whose governments have repeatedly provided support for acts 
of international terrorism under section 6(j) of the Export 
Administration Act (EAA).
    (b) Items controlled under EAA sections 6(j) and 6(a). Whenever the 
Secretary of State determines that an export or reexport to any of 
these countries could make a significant contribution to the military 
potential of such country, including its military logistics capability, 
or could enhance the ability of such country to support acts of 
international terrorism, the item is subject to mandatory control under 
EAA section 6(j) and the Secretaries of Commerce and State are required 
to notify appropriate Committees of the Congress 30 days before a 
license for such an item may be issued.
    (1) On December 28, 1993, the Secretary of State determined that 
the export to Cuba, Libya, Iran, Iraq, North Korea, Sudan, or Syria of 
items described in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(5) of this Supplement, 
if destined to military, police, intelligence or other sensitive end-
users, are controlled under EAA section 6(j). Therefore, the 30-day 
advance Congressional notification requirement applies to the export or 
reexport of these items to sensitive end-users in any of these 
countries.
    (2) License applications for items controlled to designated 
terrorist-supporting countries under EAA section 6(a) will also be 
reviewed to determine whether the Congressional notification 
requirements of EAA section 6(j) apply.
    (3) Items controlled for anti-terrorism reasons under section 6(a) 
to Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria are:
    (i) Items described in paragraphs (c)(1) through (c)(5) to non-
sensitive end-users, and
    (ii) The following items to all end-users: for Iran, items in 
paragraphs (c)(6) through (c)(42) of this Supplement; for North Korea, 
items in paragraph (c)(6) through (c)(44) of this Supplement; for 
Sudan, items in paragraphs (c)(6) through (c)(14), and (c)(16) through 
(c)(42) of this Supplement; and for Syria, items in paragraphs (c)(6) 
through (c)(8), (c)(10) through (c)(14), (c)(16) through (c)(19), and 
(c)(22) through (c)(42) of this Supplement.
    (c) The license requirements and licensing policies for items 
controlled for anti-terrorism reasons to Iran, Syria, Sudan, and North 
Korea are generally described in Secs. 742.8, 742.9, 742.10, and 742.19 
of this part, respectively. This Supplement provides guidance on 
licensing policies for Iran, North Korea, Syria, and Sudan and related 
contract sanctity dates that may be available for transactions 
benefitting from pre-existing contracts involving Iran, Syria, and 
Sudan. Exporters are advised that the Treasury Department's Office of 
Foreign Assets Control administers a comprehensive trade and investment 
embargo against Iran (See Executive Orders 12957, 12959 and 13059 of 
March 15, 1995, May 6, 1995 and August 19, 1997, respectively.) 
Exporters are further advised that exports and reexports to Iran of 
items that are listed on the CCL as requiring a license for national 
security or foreign policy reasons are subject to a policy of denial 
under the Iran-Iraq Arms Non-Proliferation Act of October 23, 1992 (50 
U.S.C. 1701 note (1994)). Transactions involving Iran and benefitting 
from a contract that pre-dates October 23, 1992 may be considered under 
the applicable licensing policy in effect prior to that date.

uses in Syria will generally be denied. Applications for non-military 
end-users or end-uses will be considered on a case-by-case basis,

Supplement. No contract sanctity date is available for items valued at 
$7 million or more to military end-users or end-uses. The contract 
sanctity date for all other items for all end-users: December 16, 1986.
    (iii) Sudan. Applications for military end-users or military end-
uses in Sudan will generally be denied. Applications for non-military

Supplement. Contract sanctity date: January 19, 1996, unless a prior

for foreign policy reasons under EAA section 6(j) have a contract 
sanctity date of December 28, 1993).
    (iv) North Korea. Applications for all end-users in North Korea of
