SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    On September 11, 2020, BIS published ``Wassenaar Arrangement 2018 
Plenary Decisions Implementation; and Other Revisions Related to 
National Security Controls (Final Rule)'' (85 FR 56294) in the Federal 
Register. This publication unintentionally introduced errors in Export 
Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) 3A001, 3A002, 3A991, 5A002, 
7A005, and 9E003, entries located on the Commerce Control List, 
Supplement No. 1 to part 774 of the EAR. This final rule revises part 
774 of the EAR to correct these errors and thereby conform the entries 
to other recent regulatory changes. These revisions do not change BIS 
policy, including policy regarding any applicable licensing 
requirements. The specific revisions set forth in this final rule are 
detailed below.

3A001 Electronic Items

    ECCN 3A001 is corrected as follows:
    Adding double quotes around the remaining listed terms that do not 
have double quotes in the Note following the introductory text of Items 
paragraph .a. This stylistic convention is consistent with the 
Wassenaar Arrangement List of Dual-Use Goods and Technologies and the 
EAR.
    Item paragraph a.2 is corrected by replacing ``Electrical Erasable 
Programmable Read Only Memories (EEPROMS), flash memories, and MRAMs'' 
with `non-volatile memories' and by adding a Technical Note to define 
`non-volatile memories.'
    Item paragraph a.2.c is corrected by adding a plus sign before 125 
[deg]C.
    The term ``Mega Samples Per Second'' is removed from subparagraphs 
a.5.a.3, a.5.a.4, and a.5.a.5 in Item paragraph a.5.a, leaving its 
acronym ``MSPS'' in all three places. Item paragraph a.5.a and the 
Technical Note below a.5.a are corrected by replacing the term ``output 
rate'' with the term ``sample rate''. The Technical Notes below Item 
paragraph a.5.a are corrected by adding an explanation for the 
resolution of the Analogue-to-Digital Convert (ADC), by removing the 
explanation for output rate, by replacing single quotes with double 
quotes around the terms ``interleaved ADCs'' and ``multiple channel 
ADCs'', and by removing Technical Notes 5 through 9.
    Item paragraph a.5.b.2.a (settling time parameter) is corrected by 
adding ``arrive at or within'' before the reference to 0.024%.
    The inclusion Note to 3A001.a.7 is corrected by removing the term 
``Simple Programmable Logic Devices (SPLDs)''.
    Item paragraph a.14 is corrected by replacing ``Integrated circuits 
that perform all of the following:'' with ``Integrated circuits that 
perform or are programmable to perform all of the following:''. Item 
paragraph a.14 is corrected by replacing the term ``input sample rate'' 
with the term ``sample rate'', which is defined in part 772. Item 
paragraph a.14 is also corrected by removing ``Giga Samples Per 
Second'' from subparagraphs a.14.a.2 and a.14.a.3, leaving the acronym 
``GSPS'' in both places. Item paragraph a.14 is also corrected by 
removing ``Mega Samples Per Second'' from subparagraph a.14.a.5, 
leaving the acronym ``MSPS''.
    Four Technical Notes that further explain the parameters in Item 
paragraph a. are added below Item paragraph a.14.b.2.
    Nota Bene 3 is added after Item paragraph b.4.f to reference 
3A001.b.7 for converters and harmonic mixers.
    In Item paragraph b.11, double quotes are replaced with single 
quotes around the term `frequency synthesizer', the ``or'' is removed 
from the end of b.11.d, and a Technical Note below Item paragraph 
b.11.g is added defining `frequency synthesizer'.
    Technical Note 5 after Item paragraph b.12.d is corrected by 
replacing the reference ``3A001.b.4.12.c'' with ``3A001.b.12.c''.
    The parameters for `primary cells' in Item paragraph e.1.a are 
corrected by cascading the parameters and by adding a `continuous power 
density' parameter and the definition for it in Technical Note 5 below 
Item paragraph e.1.b. In Item paragraph e.1.b, ``293 K'' and extraneous 
parentheticals around 20 [deg]C are removed.
    Item paragraph 3A001.f, which pertains to rotary input type 
absolute position encoders, is corrected by removing a single plus/
minus sign in front of ``1.0 second of arc''.
    Paragraph 3A001.i, which pertains to intensity, amplitude, or phase 
electro-optic modulators, designed for analog signals (including 
electro-optic modulators having optical input and output connectors), 
is added. These items are eligible for License Exception Shipments to 
Country Group B countries (GBS); therefore, the GBS paragraph under 
``List Based License Exceptions'' is accordingly corrected to reference 
Item paragraph .i. One parameter specified in Item paragraph .i, `half-
wave voltage' (`V[pi]'), is defined in a Technical Note added below the 
paragraph.

3A002 General Purpose ``Electronic Assemblies,'' Modules and Equipment

    In Item paragraph c.1., the frequency parameter is corrected by 
replacing ``exceeding 10 MHz'' with ``exceeding 40 MHz'' for signal 
analyzers having a 3 dB resolution bandwidth (RBW).
    Double quotes are replaced with single quotes for the term `real-
time bandwidth' in Item paragraph c.4.a and for the term `frequency 
mask trigger' in Item paragraph c.4.b.2. The definitions for these 
terms are added to the Technical Notes after Item paragraph c.4.b.2. 
Two additional Technical Notes are added, for a total of four Technical 
Notes.
    Double quotes are added to the term ``sample rate'' in Item 
paragraph h.1. The words ``an input'' are replaced with the word ``a'' 
in Item paragraph h.1.
    The scientific unit ``billion samples per second'' is replaced with 
``Giga Samples Per Second (GSPS)'' in Item paragraph h.1.a.
    The scientific unit ``billion samples per second'' is replaced with 
the acronym ``GSPS'' in Item paragraphs h.1.b and h.1.c.
    The scientific unit ``million samples per second'' is replaced with 
``Mega Samples Per Second (MSPS)'' in Item paragraph h.1.d.
    The scientific unit ``million samples per second'' is replaced with 
the

[[Page 78685]]

acronym ``MSPS'' in Item paragraph h.1.e.
    The Technical Note below Item paragraph h.2.c is replaced by four 
Technical Notes that explain resolution and ``sample rate'' for 
interleaved and non-interleaved multiple-channel ``electronic 
assemblies'', modules, or equipment.

3A991 Electronic Devices, and ``Components''

    Item paragraph j.2 is corrected by increasing the energy density 
from 300 to 350 Wh/kg or less.

5A002 ``Information Security'' Systems, Equipment, and ``Components''

    Paragraph (4)(a) of Related Controls is corrected by replacing the 
phrase `in excess of 56 bits of symmetric key length, or equivalent' 
with `described security algorithm'.
    Item paragraph .a is corrected by replacing ``usable without 
``cryptographic activation'' or has been activated'' with ``useable, 
has been activated, or can be activated by means of ``cryptographic 
activation'' not employing a secure mechanism''.
    Item paragraph a.4 is corrected by removing ``in excess of''.
    Paragraph 2.a of the Technical Notes that follow Item paragraph a.4 
is corrected by removing the word ``or'' at the end of the paragraph.
    Paragraph 2.b of the Technical Notes that follow Item paragraph a.4 
is corrected by replacing ``.'' with ``; or'' at the end.

7A005 ``Satellite Navigation System'' Receiving Equipment

    The reference to License Exception Civil End Users, which was 
removed from the EAR by 85 FR 23470 (April 28, 2020), is deleted from 
the License Exception section of ECCN 7A005.

9E003 ``Specially Designed'' Assemblies or ``Components'' for Aero Gas 
Turbine Engines

    ECCN 9E003 is corrected as follows:
    In Technical Note 2 below Item paragraph a.2 and in the Technical 
Note below Item paragraph a.5, the single quotes are replaced with 
double quotes around the term ``steady state mode''. In Technical Note 
2 below a.5, the definition for ``steady state mode'', is removed.
    Technical Note 4 below the Note to 9E003.c is corrected by 
replacing ``laser'' with `` ``laser'' beam machining'', replacing 
``water jet'' with ``water jet machining'', and by replacing 
``Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) methods'' with ``Electrical 
Discharge Machining (EDM)''.

Export Control Reform Act of 2018

    On August 13, 2018, the President signed into law the John S. 
McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, which 
included the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 (ECRA), 50 U.S.C. 
Sections 4801-4852. ECRA provides the legal basis for BIS's principal 
authorities and serves as the authority under which BIS issues this 
rule.

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, and distributed impacts, and taking into 
account equity issues). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance 
of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of 
harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This final rule has 
been designated as a regulatory action that is not significant under 
section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866. This rule is not an Executive 
Order 13771 regulatory action because this rule is not significant 
under Executive Order 12866.
    2. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person may be 
required to respond to or 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 a 
collection currently approved by OMB under control number 0694-0088, 
Simplified Network Application Processing System. This collection 
includes, among other things, license applications, and carries a 
burden estimate of 42.5 minutes for a manual or electronic submission 
for a total burden estimate of 31,878 hours. BIS does not expect the 
burden hours associated with this collection to change as a result of 
these correcting amendments.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with federalism implications 
as that term is defined under Executive Order 13132.

Administrative Procedure Act and Regulatory Flexibility Act 
Requirements

    Pursuant to Section 4821 of ECRA, this action is exempt from the 
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553) requirements for notice of 
proposed rulemaking, opportunity for public participation and delay in 
effective date. Furthermore, 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 the Administrative Procedure Act or by any other law, the 
analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 
et seq.) are not applicable. Accordingly, no regulatory flexibility 
analysis is required, and none has been prepared.

List of Subjects in 15 CFR Part 774

    Exports, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Terrorism.

    Accordingly, part 774 of the Export Administration Regulations (15 
CFR parts 730 through 774) is corrected by making the following 
correcting amendments:

MHz or the highest full scale analog signal frequency specified 
below 100 MHz; or
    a.5.b.2.b. An `adjusted update rate' exceeding 3,500 MSPS;
    Technical Notes:
    `1. `Spurious Free Dynamic Range' (SFDR) is defined as the ratio 
of the RMS value of the carrier frequency (maximum signal component) 
at the input of the DAC to the RMS value of the next largest noise 
or harmonic distortion component at its output.
    2. SFDR is determined directly from the specification table or 
from the characterization plots of SFDR versus frequency.
    3. A signal is defined to be full scale when its amplitude is 
greater than -3 dBfs (full scale).
    4. `Adjusted update rate' for DACs is:
    a. For conventional (non-interpolating) DACs, the `adjusted 
update rate' is the rate at which the digital signal is converted to 
an analog signal and the output analog values are changed by the 
DAC. For DACs where the interpolation mode may be bypassed 
(interpolation factor of one), the DAC should be considered as a 
conventional (non-interpolating) DAC.
    b. For interpolating DACs (oversampling DACs), the `adjusted 
update rate' is defined as the DAC update rate divided by the 
smallest interpolating factor. For interpolating DACs, the `adjusted 
update rate' may be referred to by different terms including:

 input data rate
 input word rate
 input sample rate
 maximum total input bus rate
 maximum DAC clock rate for DAC clock input.

    a.6. Electro-optical and ``optical integrated circuits'', 
designed for ``signal processing'' and having all of the following:
    a.6.a. One or more than one internal ``laser'' diode;
    a.6.b. One or more than one internal light detecting element; 
and
    a.6.c. Optical waveguides;
    a.7. `Field programmable logic devices' having any of the 
following:
    a.7.a. A maximum number of single-ended digital input/outputs of 
greater than 700; or
    a.7.b. An `aggregate one-way peak serial transceiver data rate' 
of 500 Gb/s or greater;
    Note: 3A001.a.7 includes:

-- Complex Programmable Logic Devices (CPLDs);
-- Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs);
-- Field Programmable Logic Arrays (FPLAs);
-- Field Programmable Interconnects (FPICs).
