Addition of Certain Persons to the Entity List; and Implementation of Entity List Annual Review Changes

Commerce Department, Industry and Security Bureau

Abstract

This rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) by adding to the Entity List two persons who 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 country of France. This rule also amends the Entity List on the basis of the annual review of the Entity List conducted by the End-User Review Committee (ERC). The ERC conducts the annual review to determine if any entries on the Entity List should be removed or modified. This rule reflects the results of the ERC's annual review of fifteen countries, i.e. Armenia, Belarus, Egypt, Germany, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Kuwait, Lebanon, Norway, Russia, South Korea, Syria, the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.), and the United Kingdom (U.K.). As a result of these reviews, this rule makes amendments to the Entity List including: The removal of three entries (one each in Germany, South Korea, and the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.)); the addition of four entities (one each in Canada, Egypt, France and the United Kingdom); and the amendments of seventeen entries to provide alternate addresses, alternate spellings of names, and/or aliases for listed persons. The amended entries are in Armenia, Germany, Iran, Lebanon, Syria, and the U.A.E. sections of the Entity List. 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 (BIS) and that availability of license exceptions in such transactions is limited.
