Addition of Certain Persons and Modification of Certain Entries
to the Entity List; and Removal of Certain Persons From the Entity List
AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)
by adding seven persons under ten entries to the Entity List. The seven
persons who are added to the Entity List have been determined by the
U.S. Government to be acting contrary to the national security or
foreign policy interests of the United States. These persons will be
listed on the Entity List under the destinations of China and Hong
Kong.
This final rule also removes two persons from the Entity List. One
entity requested removal from the Entity List in accordance with the
procedure for requesting removal or modification of an Entity List
entity. The End-User Review Committee (ERC) decided to remove this
entity following a review of information provided in the removal
request. The ERC decided to remove a second person from the Entity List
following a proposal submitted by an ERC member agency, in accordance
with the procedure for requesting removal or modification of an Entity
List entity.
Finally, this final rule modifies ten existing entries on the
Entity List consisting of one entry under China and nine entries under
Hong Kong to provide additional or modified addresses and/or aliases
for these persons.
DATES: This rule is effective on November 12, 2015.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744) identifies entities
and other persons reasonably believed to be involved, or to pose a
significant risk of being or becoming involved, in activities contrary
to the national security or foreign policy interests of the United
States. The EAR imposes additional license requirements on, and limits
the availability of most license exceptions for, exports, reexports,
and transfers (in-country) to those listed. The ``license review
policy'' for each listed entity or other person is identified in the
License Review Policy column on the Entity List and the impact on the
availability of license exceptions is described in the Federal Register
notice adding entities or other persons to the Entity List. BIS places
entities and other persons on the Entity List pursuant to sections of
part 744 (Control Policy: End-User and End-Use Based) and part 746
(Embargoes and Other Special Controls) of the EAR.
The ERC, composed of representatives of the Departments of Commerce
(Chair), State, Defense, Energy and, where appropriate, the Treasury,
makes all decisions regarding additions to, removals from, or other
modifications to the Entity List. The ERC makes all decisions to add an
entry to the Entity List by majority vote and all decisions to remove
or modify an entry by unanimous vote.
ERC Entity List Decisions
Additions to the Entity List
This rule implements the decision of the ERC to add seven persons
under ten entries to the Entity List. These seven persons are being
added on the basis of
[[Page 69853]]
Sec. 744.11 (License requirements that apply to entities acting
contrary to the national security or foreign policy interests of the
United States) of the EAR. The ten entries added to the Entity List
consist of three entries in China and seven entries in Hong Kong. There
are ten entries for the seven persons because three persons are listed
in both China and Hong Kong, resulting in three additional entries.
The ERC reviewed Sec. 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity
List) in making the determination to add these seven persons under ten
entries to the Entity List. Under that paragraph, persons for whom
there is reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable
facts, have been involved, are involved, or pose a significant risk of
being or becoming involved in, activities that are contrary to the
national security or foreign policy interests of the United States and
those acting on behalf of such persons may be added to the Entity List.
Paragraphs (b)(1) through (b)(5) of Sec. 744.11 include an
illustrative list of activities that could be contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the United States. Pursuant to
Sec. 744.11 of the EAR, the ERC determined that the seven persons be
added to the Entity List for actions contrary to the national security
or foreign policy interests of the United States.
The ERC has determined that for the seven persons added, there is
reasonable cause to believe, based on specific and articulable facts,
that (Jack) Wang Wei, Sky Rise Technology Ltd., TiMi Technologies Co.
Ltd., Caprice Group Ltd., Reekay Technology Limited, and 32 Group China
Ltd. have made attempts to procure items, including U.S.-origin items,
for activities contrary to the national security and foreign policy
interests of the United States. Specifically, (Jack) Wang Wei has used
these companies to supply U.S.-origin items to an Iranian party
associated with the Iranian defense industry and to an Iranian party
whose customers include companies designated by the Department of
Treasury as Specially Designated Nationals.
Pursuant to Sec. 744.11(b)(2) of the EAR, the ERC determined that
the conduct of these seven persons raises sufficient concern that prior
review of exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) of items
subject to the EAR involving these persons, and the possible imposition
of license conditions or license denials on shipments to the persons,
will enhance BIS's ability to prevent violations of the EAR.
For the seven persons this rule adds to the Entity List on the
basis of Sec. 744.11, the ERC specified a license requirement for all
items subject to the EAR and a license review policy of presumption of
denial. The license requirements apply to any transaction in which
items are to be exported, reexported, or transferred (in-country) to
any of the persons or in which such persons act as purchaser,
intermediate consignee, ultimate consignee, or end-user. In addition,
no license exceptions are available for exports, reexports, or
transfers (in-country) to the persons being added to the Entity List in
this rule.
This final rule adds the following seven persons under ten entries
to the Entity List:
China
(1) Sky Rise Technology Ltd., a.k.a., the following one alias:

Removals From the Entity List
This rule implements a decision of the ERC to remove two persons,
Weihai New Era Chemical Industrial Company Limited, located in China;
and Able City Development Limited, located in Hong Kong, from the
Entity List. This rule removes Weihai New Era Chemical Industrial
Company Limited on the basis of a removal request submitted by this
listed person pursuant to Sec. 744.16 (Procedure for requesting
removal or modification of an Entity List entity) of the EAR. Able City
Development Limited is being removed pursuant to a proposal submitted
by an End-User
[[Page 69854]]
Review Committee (ERC) member agency, in accordance with Supplement No.
5 to Part 744 of the EAR, as discussed below.
A. Removal pursuant to Sec. 744.16.
Based upon a review of the information provided in a removal
request made in accordance with Sec. 744.16 of the EAR and further
review conducted by the ERC, the ERC determined that the Weihai New Era
Chemical Industrial Company Limited should be removed from the Entity
List.
Weihai New Era Chemical Industrial Company Limited was added to the
Entity List on May 1, 2014 (79 FR 24563) pursuant to Sec. 744.11(b)(2)
and (b)(5) of the EAR. The ERC's decision to remove Weihai New Era
Chemical Industrial Company Limited from the Entity List was based on
information provided by the company in its appeal request pursuant to
Sec. 744.16.
In accordance with Sec. 744.16(c), the Deputy Assistant Secretary
for Export Administration has sent written notification informing this
person of the ERC's decision.
B. Other removal based on ERC decision.
This rule implements a decision of the ERC to remove one person
located in Hong Kong, Able City Development Limited, from the Entity
List. The ERC determined that this person no longer met the criteria
for inclusion on the Entity List. Able City Development Limited was
added to the Entity List on July 21, 2009 (74 FR 35797) pursuant to
Sec. 744.11(b) of the EAR. In accordance with the procedures outlined
in Supplement No. 5 to part 744 of the EAR, any agency that
participates in the ERC may make a proposal to add, modify or remove an
entry from the Entity List by submitting that proposal to the chairman.
For this removal, an ERC member agency proposed to the ERC to remove
Able City Development Limited because a review of records indicated
that the entity has dissolved. Because this entity does not exist, in
accordance with Sec. 744.16(c), the Deputy Assistant Secretary for
Export Administration has not sent written notification informing this
person of the ERC's decision.
This final rule implements the decision to remove the following two
persons from the Entity List:
China
(1) Weihai New Era Chemical Industrial Company Limited, No. 985
Fenghua Shan Road, Yangting New Industrial District, Huancui District,
Weihai, China.
Hong Kong
(1) Able City Development Limited, Unit C, 9/F Neich Tower, 128
Gloucester Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong; and Unit 401, Harbour Ctr., Tower
2, 8 Hok Cheung Street, Hung Hom, Kowloon, Hong Kong.
The removal of the two entities referenced above, which was
approved by the ERC, eliminates the existing license requirements in
Supplement No. 4 to part 744 for exports, reexports and transfers (in-
country) to these entities. However, the removal of these two entities
from the Entity List does not relieve persons of other obligations
under part 744 of the EAR or under other parts of the EAR. Neither the
removal of an entity from the Entity List nor the removal of Entity
List-based license requirements relieves persons 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.'' Additionally these removals do not
relieve persons of their obligation to apply for export, reexport or
in-country transfer licenses required by other provisions of the EAR.
BIS strongly urges the use of Supplement No. 3 to part 732 of the EAR,
``BIS's `Know Your Customer' Guidance and Red Flags,'' when persons are
involved in transactions that are subject to the EAR. Additionally, as
noted above, Able City Development Limited no longer exists so there
should be no transactions involving this person.
Modifications to the Entity List
This final rule implements decisions of the ERC to modify ten
existing entries on the Entity List. Under the destination of China,
the ERC made a determination to add six additional addresses and eight
additional aliases to the entry for China Electronics Technology Group
Corporation 29 (CETC 29) Research Institute. Under the destination of
Hong Kong, the ERC made a determination to make the following
modifications to nine entries, as follows: add one additional address
to the entry for Biznest, LTD; add one additional address to the entry
for Giant Base Asia Limited; add one additional address to the entry
for Jadeshine Engineering (HK) Co.; add one additional address to the
entry for JLD Technology; add one additional address and two additional
aliases to the entry for Kinglead Electronics Co., Ltd.; add one alias
to the entry for PRC Lode Technology Company; add one additional
address to the entry for Serko Limited; add one additional address and
one alias to the entry for Tex-Co Logistics Ltd.; and add one
additional address and one alias to the entry for Yeraz, LTD.
This final rule makes the following modifications to ten entries on
the Entity List:

Savings Clause
Shipments of items removed from eligibility for a License Exception
or export or reexport without a license (NLR) as a result of this
regulatory action that were en route aboard a carrier to a port of
export or reexport, on November 12, 2015, pursuant to actual orders for
export or reexport to a foreign destination, may proceed to that
destination under the previous eligibility for a License Exception or
export or reexport without a license (NLR).
Export Administration Act
Although the Export Administration Act expired on August 20, 2001,
the President, through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR,
2001 Comp., p. 783 (2002), as amended by Executive Order 13637 of March
8, 2013, 78 FR 16129 (March 13, 2013) and as extended by the Notice of
August 7, 2015, 80 FR 48233 (August 11, 2015), has continued the Export
Administration Regulations in effect under the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act. BIS continues to carry out the provisions of the
Export Administration Act, as appropriate and to the extent permitted
by law, pursuant to Executive Order 13222, as amended by Executive
Order 13637.
Rulemaking Requirements
1. Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public
health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive
Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and
benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting
flexibility. This 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 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 regulation involves
collections previously approved by OMB under control number 0694-0088,
Simplified Network Application Processing System, which includes, among
other things, license applications and carries a burden estimate of
43.8 minutes for a manual or electronic submission. Total burden hours
associated with the PRA and OMB control number 0694-0088 are not
expected to increase as a result of this rule. You may send comments
regarding the collection of information associated with this rule,
including suggestions for reducing the burden, to Jasmeet K. Seehra,
Office of Management and Budget (OMB), by email to
[email protected], or by fax to (202) 395-7285.
3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications
as that term is defined in Executive Order 13132.
4. For the seven persons under ten entries added to the Entity List
in this final rule, and the ten existing entities whose entries on the
Entity List are being modified to provide additional or modified
addresses and/or aliases, the provisions of the Administrative
Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requiring notice of proposed rulemaking,
the opportunity for public comment and a delay in effective date are
inapplicable because this regulation involves a military or foreign
affairs function of the United States. (See 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). BIS
implements this rule to protect U.S. national security or foreign
policy interests by preventing items from being exported, reexported,
or transferred (in-country) to the persons being added to the Entity
List. If this rule were delayed to allow for notice and comment and a
delay in effective date, then entities being added to the Entity List
or modified by this action would continue to be able to receive items
without a license and to conduct activities contrary to the national
security or foreign policy interests of the United States. In addition,
because these parties may receive notice of the U.S. Government's
intention to place this entity on the Entity List if a proposed rule is
published, doing so would create an incentive for these persons to
either accelerate receiving items subject to the EAR to conduct
activities that are contrary to the national security or foreign policy
interests of the United States, or to take steps to set up additional
aliases, change addresses, and other measures to try to limit the
impact of the listing on the Entity List once a final rule was
published. Further, no other law requires that a notice of proposed
rulemaking and an opportunity for public comment be given for this
rule.
For the two removals from the Entity List in this final rule,
pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B),
BIS finds good cause to waive requirements that this rule be subject to
notice and the opportunity for public comment because it would be
contrary to the public interest.
In determining whether to grant removal requests from the Entity
List, a committee of U.S. Government agencies (the End-User Review
Committee (ERC)) evaluates information about and commitments made by
listed persons requesting removal from the Entity List, the nature and
terms of which are set
[[Page 69856]]
forth in 15 CFR part 744, Supplement No. 5, as noted in 15 CFR
744.16(b). The information, commitments, and criteria for this
extensive review were all established through the notice of proposed
rulemaking and public comment process (72 FR 31005 (June 5, 2007)
(proposed rule), and 73 FR 49311 (August 21, 2008) (final rule)). These
two removals have been made within the established regulatory framework
of the Entity List. One of the entities removed by this rule no longer
exists. If the rule were to be delayed to allow for public comment,
U.S. exporters may face unnecessary economic losses as they turn away
potential sales to the other entity removed by this rule because the
customer remained a listed person on the Entity List even after the ERC
approved the removal pursuant to the rule published at 73 FR 49311 on
August 21, 2008. By publishing without prior notice and comment, BIS
allows the applicant to receive U.S. exports immediately since the
applicant already has received approval by the ERC pursuant to 15 CFR
part 744, Supplement No. 5, as noted in 15 CFR 744.16(b).
The removal from the Entity List as a result of a removal request
granted by the ERC or for other reasons involve interagency
deliberation and result from review of public and non-public sources,
including sensitive law enforcement information and classified
information, and the measurement of such information against the Entity
List removal criteria. This information is extensively reviewed,
including according to the criteria for evaluating removal requests
from the Entity List, as set out in 15 CFR part 744, Supplement No. 5
and 15 CFR 744.16(b). For reasons of national security, BIS is not at
liberty to provide to the public detailed information on which the ERC
relied to make the decisions to remove these two entities. In addition,
the information included in the removal request is information
exchanged between the applicant and the ERC, which by law (section
12(c) of the Export Administration Act), BIS is restricted from sharing
with the public. Moreover, removal requests from the Entity List
contain confidential business information, which is necessary for the
extensive review conducted by the U.S. Government in assessing such
removal requests.
Section 553(d) of the APA generally provides that rules may not
take effect earlier than thirty (30) days after they are published in
the Federal Register. BIS finds good cause to waive the 30-day delay in
effectiveness under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(1) because this rule is a
substantive rule which relieves a restriction. This rule's removal of
two persons from the Entity List removes a requirement (the Entity-
List-based license requirement and limitation on use of license
exceptions) on these two persons being removed from the Entity List.
The rule does not impose a requirement on any other person for these
two removals from the Entity List.
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 under the APA or by any other law, the analytical
requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.)
are not applicable. As a result, no final regulatory flexibility
analysis is required and none has been prepared.
