This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding fourteen persons under twenty-one entries to the Entity List. The 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 following four destinations: Afghanistan, China, Hong Kong, and Pakistan. In addition, this rule amends the EAR to implement modifications to the Entity List on the basis of the annual review of the Entity List conducted by the End-User Review Committee (ERC), which the ERC conducts to determine if any entries on the Entity List should be removed or modified. This rule implements the results of the annual review for entities located in Canada. The Entity List provides notice to the public that certain exports, reexports, and transfers (in-country) to entities identified on the Entity List require a license from the Bureau of Industry and Security and that availability of license exceptions in such transactions is limited.
