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.

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.
