North Korea: Imposition of New Foreign Policy Controls
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with recent United Nations (UN) Security Council
resolutions and the foreign policy interests of the United States, the
United States Government is imposing restrictions on exports and
reexports of luxury goods to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea
(North Korea), and is continuing to restrict exports and reexports of
nuclear or missile-related items and other items included on the
Commerce Control List (CCL). To this end, the Bureau of Industry and
Security (BIS) is amending the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)
to impose license requirements for the export and reexport of virtually
all items subject to the EAR to North Korea, except food and medicines
not listed on the CCL.
BIS will generally deny applications to export and reexport luxury
goods, e.g., luxury automobiles; yachts; gems; jewelry; other fashion
accessories; cosmetics; perfumes; furs; designer clothing; luxury
watches; rugs and tapestries; electronic entertainment software and
equipment; recreational sports equipment; tobacco; wine and other
alcoholic beverages; musical instruments; art; and antiques and
collectible items including but not limited to rare coins and stamps.
BIS will continue to generally deny applications to export and
reexport arms and related materiel controlled on the CCL and items
controlled under the multilateral export control regimes (the Missile
Technology Control Regime, the Nuclear Suppliers Group, the Australia
Group, and the Wassenaar Arrangement). This includes items specified in
UN documents S/2006/814, S/2006/815 and S/2006/853. BIS will also
generally deny applications to export and reexport other items that the
UN determines could contribute to North Korea's nuclear-related,
ballistic missile-related, or other weapons of mass destruction-related
programs.
BIS will also generally approve applications to export or reexport:
non-food, non-medical humanitarian items (e.g., blankets, basic
footwear, heating oil, and other items meeting subsistence needs)
intended for the benefit of the North Korean people; items in support
of United Nations humanitarian efforts; and agricultural commodities
and medical devices that are determined not to be luxury goods.
BIS will review on a case-by-case basis applications to export and
reexport all other items subject to the EAR.
DATES: This rule is effective January 26, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Although this is a final rule, BIS welcomes comments, which
should be sent by fax to (202) 482-3355, e-mail to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On July 4, 2006, in defiance of international calls for restraint,
the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) proceeded with
the launch and testing of a series of ballistic missiles. On July 15,
2006, the United Nations (UN) Security Council adopted Resolution 1695
(UNSCR 1695), condemning North Korea for its actions. In UNSCR 1695,
the Security Council demanded that North Korea suspend all ballistic
missile-related activity and reinstate its moratorium on missile
launches. Subsequently, the President signed the North Korea
Nonproliferation Act of 2006 (Pub. L. 109-353), which affirmed
Congress' statement that it should be the policy of the United States
to impose sanctions on persons who supported North Korea's missile or
weapons of mass destruction programs.
On October 9, 2006, despite the adoption of UNSCR 1695, and in
flagrant disregard of the admonitions of the international community,
North Korea conducted a nuclear test. On October 14, 2006, the UN
Security Council adopted Resolution 1718 (UNSCR 1718), which condemned
the nuclear test and expressed the gravest concern over the challenge
such a test constitutes to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of
Nuclear Weapons, to peace and stability in the region, and to
international efforts to strengthen the global nonproliferation regime.
Among other things, UNSCR 1718 decides that all UN Member States shall
prevent the direct or indirect supply, sale, or transfer to North Korea
of: (1) Certain arms and related materiel; (2) items set out in the
lists in UN documents S/2006/814, S/2006/815, and S/2006/853 (available
at http://www.un.org/Docs/sc/committees/1718/1718SelEng.htm), as well
as other items identified by the Security Council or the Sanctions
Committee established by UNSCR 1718 that could contribute to North
Korea's nuclear-related, ballistic missile-related, and other weapons
of mass destruction-related programs; and (3) luxury goods. UNSCR 1718
also decides that Member States shall prevent transfers to North Korea
of technical training, advice, services, or assistance related to the
provision, manufacture, maintenance or use of the items specified
above. Furthermore, UNSCR 1718 demands that North Korea, in a
verifiable and irreversible manner, abandon nuclear weapons, existing
nuclear programs, and all other existing weapons of mass destruction
programs. The Resolution also decides that North Korea must suspend all
ballistic missile activities, demands that North Korea return to the
Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, and requires that
North Korea act in accordance with the terms and conditions of its
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Safeguards Agreement.
On December 7, 2006, in accordance with Section 102(b) of the Arms
Export Control Act, as amended (22 U.S.C. 2799aa-1), the President
determined that North Korea had detonated a nuclear explosive device.
The President directed the relevant agencies and instrumentalities of
the United States to take the necessary actions to impose the sanctions
described in Section 102(b)(2) of that Act. See 72 FR 1899 (Jan. 16,
2007). Section 102(b)(2)(G) of that Act provides that dual-use export
control authorities shall be used to prohibit exports of specific goods
and technology to any country so identified by the President.
Changes to Licensing Requirements and Policy
As a result of North Korea's test launch of ballistic missiles in
July, 2006, and testing of a nuclear device in October, 2006, and
consistent with
[[Page 3723]]
UNSCR 1718, the United States is imposing new export and reexport
controls on North Korea.
Under this final rule, in accordance with UNSCR 1718 and the
foreign policy interests of the United States, the Bureau of Industry
and Security (BIS) will require a license for the export and reexport
to North Korea of all items subject to the Export Administration
Regulations (EAR), except food and medicines that are not on the
Commerce Control List (CCL). Although a license is already required to
export and reexport to North Korea all items controlled on the CCL for
Nuclear Nonproliferation (NP) and Missile Technology (MT) reasons, BIS
also will require a license for these items (except for items
classified under Export Commodity Classification Number (ECCN) 7A103)
in accordance with the President's December 7, 2006 directive regarding
implementation of Section 102(b) of the Arms Export Control Act.
Pursuant to new Section 746.4(c) of the EAR, BIS will review
license applications for the export or reexport of luxury goods to
North Korea under a general policy of denial. This policy of denial
applies to, but is not limited to applications to export and reexport
luxury goods including, for example: Luxury automobiles; yachts; gems;
jewelry; other fashion accessories; cosmetics; perfumes; furs; designer
clothing; luxury watches; rugs and tapestries; electronic entertainment
software and equipment; recreational sports equipment; tobacco; wine
and other alcoholic beverages; musical instruments; art; and antiques
and collectible items, including but not limited to rare coins and
stamps. These and similar items have been imported by North Korea for
the use and benefit of government officials and their families, rather
than for the good of the North Korean people. In new Supplement No. 1
to part 746 of the EAR, BIS will provide further detail regarding the
illustrative list of luxury goods set forth in Section 746.4(c). The
determination of whether an item is a luxury good will be made on a
case-by-case basis. In some cases, the end-use or end-user will be
relevant to this determination. For example, an item being exported to
a humanitarian organization for purposes of providing humanitarian
assistance to the people of North Korea may not be considered a luxury
good, but the same item going to a different end-user might be
considered a luxury good and might not be approved. Computer laptops
and luxury automobiles will be exempted from the general policy of
denial if they are being exported or reexported to organizations
legitimately involved in humanitarian relief efforts, other
internationally sanctioned efforts, or in the interest of the U.S.
Government.
BIS will review under a general policy of approval license
applications for the export or reexport of humanitarian items other
than food or medicine (e.g., blankets, medical supplies, heating oil,
and other items meeting subsistence needs) intended for the benefit of
the North Korean people. This policy applies to license applications to
export or reexport items in support of UN humanitarian efforts and
programs. The general policy of approval also extends to agricultural
commodities (as defined in Section 102 of the Agricultural Trade Act of
1978) and medical devices (as defined in Section 201 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act) that are determined by BIS, in
consultation with the interagency license review community, not to be
luxury goods. Applications for all other exports and reexports of EAR99
items will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Consistent with UNSCR 1718 and existing U.S. export control policy,
BIS will review license applications for arms and related materiel
controlled on the CCL and items controlled on the multilateral export
control regime control lists (the Missile Technology Control Regime,
the Nuclear Suppliers Group, the Australia Group, and the Wassenaar
Arrangement) under a general policy of denial. This includes items
specified in UN documents S/2006/814, S/2006/815 and S/2006/853. BIS
will also generally deny applications to export and reexports other
items that the UN Security Council or the Sanctions Committee has
determined could contribute to North Korea's nuclear-related, ballistic
missile-related or other weapons of mass destruction-related programs.
In addition, applications to export or reexport items controlled on the
CCL for NP and MT reasons (except ECCN 7A103 items) will be reviewed
under a general policy of denial. Applications to export or reexport
other items on the CCL will be reviewed in accordance with the
licensing policy set forth in Section 742.19 of the EAR (Anti-
terrorism: North Korea). Section 742.19 is being amended to make
technical corrections and also to provide that applications to export
or reexport parts and components for safety-of-flight will be reviewed
on a case-by-case basis.
License Exceptions
This final rule makes inapplicable for North Korea most license
exceptions set forth in part 740 of the EAR. The only license
exceptions that remain available for North Korea, as provided in new
Section 746.4(b) are: TMP (15 CFR 740.9(a)(2)(viii) only) for items for
use by the news media; GOV (15 CFR 740.11(a), (b)(2)(i), and (b)(2)(ii)
only) for items for personal or official use by personnel and agencies
of the U.S. Government, the IAEA, or the European Atomic Energy
Community (Euratom); GFT (15 CFR 740.12) for the export or reexport of
gift parcels not containing luxury goods by an individual to an
individual or a religious, charitable or educational organization, and
for the export or reexport by groups or organizations of certain
donations to meet basic human needs; TSU (15 CFR 740.13(a) and (b)
only) for operation technology and software for lawfully exported items
and sales technology; BAG (15 CFR 740.14 (a) through (d) only) for
exports of items by individuals leaving the United States as personal
baggage; and AVS (15 CFR 740.15(a)(4) only) for civil passenger
aircraft on temporary sojourn.
Other Conforming Changes
Finally, to conform with the above-described changes and to make
minor technical corrections, this rule makes limited revisions to
Sections 732.1 and 732.3 (Steps for Using the EAR); Supplement No. 1 to
Part 738 (the Country Chart); Sections 740.2 and 740.10 (License
Exceptions); Sections 742.1 and 742.19 (Control Policy--CCL Based
Controls); Section 746.1 (Embargoes and Other Special Controls);
Section 772.1 (Definitions of Terms as used in the EAR); and Supplement
No. 1 to Part 774 (Commerce Control List) of the EAR.
Expansion of Foreign Policy-Based Export Controls
This rule imposes new export controls for foreign policy reasons.
As required by Section 6 of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as
amended (the Act), a report on the imposition of these controls was
delivered to Congress on January 16, 2007. Although the Act expired on
August 20, 2001, Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 2001
Comp., p. 783 (2002), as extended by the Notice of August 3, 2006, 71
FR 44551 (Aug. 7, 2006), has continued the Export Administration
Regulations in effect under the International Emergency Economic Powers
Act.
Savings Clause
Items that did not require a license prior to the publication of
this rule for export or reexport to North Korea and that are on dock
for loading, on lighter, laden aboard an exporting carrier or en route
aboard a carrier to a port of export
[[Page 3724]]
on January 26, 2007, may be exported or reexported without being
subject to this rule if the items are exported or reexported before
midnight as of February 9, 2007. Any such item not actually exported or
reexported before midnight February 9, 2007, may be exported or
reexported only if authorized pursuant to this final rule. Exporters
holding valid licenses for export or reexport to North Korea prior to
January 26, 2007 are authorized to continue shipments pursuant to the
terms and conditions of their licenses.
Rulemaking Requirements
1. This final 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 of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et
seq.) (PRA), unless that collection of information displays a currently
valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number. This rule
contains a collection of information subject to the requirements of the
PRA. This collection has previously been approved by OMB under Control
Number 0694-0088 (Multi-Purpose Application), which carries a burden
hour estimate of 58 minutes to prepare and submit form BIS-748. This
rule is not expected to result in any change for collection purposes.
Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of
this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing the
burden, to David Rostker, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and to
the Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Industry and Security,
Department of Commerce, as indicated in the ADDRESSES section of this
rule.
3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications
as this term is defined 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 (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 final 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. 553 or by any other
law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable.
Therefore, this regulation is issued in final form. Although there
is no formal comment period, public comments on this regulation are
welcome on a continuing basis. Comments should be submitted to
[email protected], by fax to (202) 482-3355, or to Jeffery
Lynch, Regulatory Policy Division, Bureau of Industry and Security,
Department of Commerce, P.O. Box 273, Washington, DC 20044.

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. (See Supplement No. 2
