Wassenaar Arrangement 2009 Plenary Agreements Implementation:
Categories 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Part I, 6, 7, and 9 of the Commerce Control
List, Definitions, Reports

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) maintains the
Commerce Control List (CCL), which identifies items subject to
Department of Commerce export controls. This final rule revises the
Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to implement changes made to
the Wassenaar Arrangement's List of Dual Use Goods and Technologies
(Wassenaar List) maintained and agreed to by governments participating
in the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms
and Dual Use Goods and Technologies (Wassenaar Arrangement, or WA) at
the December 2009 WA Plenary Meeting (the Plenary). The Wassenaar
Arrangement advocates implementation of effective export controls on
strategic items with the objective of improving regional and
international security and stability. To harmonize with the changes
made to the Wassenaar List at the Plenary, this rule revises the EAR by
amending certain entries that are controlled for national security
reasons in Categories 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Part I (telecommunications), 6, 7,
and 9, revising reporting requirements, and adding, removing and
amending EAR Definitions.
    The changes agreed to at the Plenary that pertain to Export Control
Classification Numbers (ECCNs) 5A002, 5D002, 6A002, 6A003, 8A002 and
all related ECCNs will be implemented in a separate rule because of the
sensitivity of the items and complexity of procedures and controls for
these items. The changes agreed to at the Plenary that pertain to
raising the Adjusted Peak Performance (APP) for digital computers in
ECCN 4A003 will be implemented in a separate rule when the President's
report for High Performance Computers has been sent to Congress that
sets forth the new APP in accordance with the National Defense
Authorization Act for FY1998.

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is effective: September 7, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    In July 1996, the United States and thirty-three 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 or WA). 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 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
a common understanding of the risks associated with the transfers of
these items. For more information on the Wassenaar Arrangement go to
http://www.wassenaar.org/.

Revisions to the Commerce Control List

    This rule revises a number of entries on the Commerce Control List
(CCL) to implement the changes to the Wassenaar List of Dual Use Goods
and Technologies agreed to at the December 2009 WA Plenary meeting.
This rule also revises language to provide a complete or more accurate
description of controls in certain ECCNs, as submitted by the Task
Force for Editorial Issues (TFEI) and agreed to at the WA Plenary. The
following ECCNs are amended by this rule: 1A001, 1A002, 1B001, 1C002,
1C006, 1C007, 1C008, 1C010, 1C011, 1E002, 2B006, 3A001, 3A002, 3B001,
4A001, 4A003, 4D001, 4D993, 4E001, 5A001, 5B001, 5D001, 5E001, 6A001,
6A005, 6A006, 6A008, 6C004, 6D003, 6E993, 7A005, 7B001, 7D003, 7E004,
9A001, 9A003, 9B002, 9D003, and 9E003. ECCN 4D003 is removed by this
rule. These changes are described in more detail below.

Category 1--Special Materials and Related Equipment, Chemicals,
``Microorganisms,'' and Toxins

    ECCN 1A001 is amended by adding a Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS)
number and the phrase ``having all of the following'' to paragraph b to
clarify the text.
    ECCN 1A002 is amended by:
    Revising Note 1 at the beginning of the Items paragraph to change
the size of composite structures or laminates used for the repair of
``civil aircraft,'' to address the increasing usage of carbon materials
in commercial aircraft. The current size limit set forth in this ECCN
limits the ability of airlines to repair aircraft successfully and in a
timely manner because of the time needed to obtain an export license
for sizes other than those allowed without license under Note 1 of this
ECCN.
    ECCN 1B001 is amended by:

--Revising the heading to more precisely describe what is in the

entry, by adding the phrases ``or inspection'', ``structures or
laminates'', and ``fibrous or filamentary materials'' specified by'';
and removing the phrase ``fibers, prepregs, performs or''.
--Revising the Missile Technology (MT) control paragraph in the License
Requirements section by replacing the phrase ``entire entry except
1B001.d.4 and .f '' with the phrase ``entire entry, except 1B001.d.4, e
and f '' and removing the Note that follows the MT control paragraph.
--In 1B001.a, adding a comma after ``filament winding machines'' and
adding the term ``primary servo positioning'' before axes, which is
defined in the technical note of the newly added paragraph 1B001.g.
--In 1B001.b, moving ``tow placement machines'' to 1B001.g to remove
machines capable of more complex airframe and missile structures from
this paragraph; moving a comma to correct the punctuation; replacing
the phrase ``two * * * axes'' with ``five * * * axes'' to focus the
control on those capable of manufacturing complex ``composite''
airframe or missile structures; and adding the term `primary servo
positioning' before axes to indicate which axes this control pertains
to.
--Adding a new paragraph 1B001.g for tow placement machines previously
specified by 1B001.b, to establish a separate paragraph for machines
capable of more complex airframe and missile structures. This new
paragraph is subject to MT controls, as well as National Security (NS)
and Anti-Terrorism (AT) controls.
--Adding a new technical note to define `primary servo positioning'
throughout 1B001.
    ECCN 1C002 is amended by adding the phrase ``the powder or
particulate'' before ``material controlled by 1C002.c'' in 1C002.b in
order to clarify which type of materials are controlled.
    ECCN 1C006 is amended by adding a CAS number(s) to paragraph
1C006.c for clarity.
    ECCN 1C007 is amended by adding a CAS number to paragraph 1C007.f
for clarity.
    ECCN 1C008 is amended by adding CAS numbers to paragraphs b.1.a,
b.2.a, b.2.b, and b.2.c for clarity.
    ECCN 1C010 is amended by:
--Deleting part of the Heading to remove the text beginning with the
phrase ``which can be used in organic * * *.''. This text is ambiguous
and did not contribute to the original intent of the control, and could
be interpreted to limit the scope of the control.
--Making editorial changes to 1C010.a.1 and a.2, b.1 and b.2, c.1 and
c.2 to remove words that do not add substance or clarity to the control
text in these paragraphs.
--Revising the control parameters in 1C010.b.1 ``specific modulus'' and
b.2 ``specific tensile strength'' for carbon ``fibrous or filamentary
materials'' because of foreign availability outside of WA member
countries and to recognize industry improvements to the processing of
these materials.
--Revising size of the structures or laminate in the Note to 1C010.b
for repair of civil aircraft because a high percentage of the damages
to civil aircraft have long, thin, and shallow characteristics caused
by ground equipment. Revising the size of these structures or laminate
makes them more accessible for the repair of civil aircraft, from an
export licensing perspective.
--Adding a new paragraph b to the note to 1C010.b to decontrol certain
short carbon fibers that are the product of chopping, milling or
cutting, because material properties of 1C010 carbon fibers shorter
than 25.0 mm are significantly reduced.
--Revising 1C010.e to have a more consistent format, to treat phenolic
resins separately from other resins, and to add a note to direct the
public to the correct control text for pre-forms that are not
impregnated (i.e., dry).
--Revising the technical note describing ``glass transition
temperature'' to read ``Dynamic Mechanical Analysis glass transition
temperature (DMA Tg),'' to reflect the new term as used in 1C010.e.
This rule also implements a new measurement standard ASTM D 7028 in
this technical note, which measures the DMA Tg on a cured laminate with
clear data interpretation instructions, to reduce errors and
inconsistencies associated with measuring resin DMA Tg.

    ECCN 1C011 is amended by adding a CAS number(s) to paragraph
1C011.c for clarity.
    ECCN 1E002 is amended by adding a CAS number(s) to paragraph
1E002.c.1.c.1 for clarity.
    Annex to Category 1 ``List of Explosives (See ECCNs 1A004 and
1A008)'' is amended by adding CAS number(s) to paragraphs 6 and 35
through 42.

Category 2--Materials Processing

    ECCN 2B006 is amended by adding capitalization for correct format
and adding a technical note to indicate the required configuration of
Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) when calculating the maximum
permissible error of indication parameter.

Category 3--Electronics

    ECCN 3A001 is amended by:

--Adding a hyphen in the word ``space-qualified'' in paragraphs
3A001.b.1.a.4.c and e.4, to correct the format of the term.
--Removing the word ``density'' after output power in paragraph
3A001.b.8.b in order to remove a word that WA never intended to include
in this paragraph.
--Adding 3A001.b.11 to control items moved to ECCN 3A001 from 3A002.b.
This move makes it clear that the ``electronic assemblies'' controlled
by this entry are components, and not instruments, which is how the
assemblies were characterized incorrectly in 3A002.b.

    ECCN 3A002 is amended by:

--Revising the License Exception section to remove references to
3A002.b to harmonize with the movement of 3A002.b to 3A001.b11.
--Adding a hyphen in the word ``space-qualified'' in paragraph
3A002.a.3.b, g.1 and g.3, to correct the format of the term.
--Removing and reserving 3A002.b and incorporating the ``frequency
synthesizer'' ``electronic assemblies'' controlled by that entry into
new paragraph 3A001.b.11. This move makes it clear that these
``frequency synthesizer'' ``electronic assemblies'' are components and
not instruments, which is how the assemblies were characterized
incorrectly in 3A002.b.
--Revising the parameters in paragraph 3A002.e to relax the controls on
network analyzers to more accurately differentiate between commercial
or civilian applications and applications of strategic concern.

    ECCN 3B001 is amended by:

--Revising the control parameters for anisotropic plasma dry etching
equipment in 3B001.c to clearly apply the control parameter to device
nodes of 65 nm or below in order to make the control of this equipment
consistent with current integrated circuit production sizes, to
maintain control on more advanced equipment in this ECCN, and to remove
controls on older equipment and spare parts that are no longer of
proliferation concern.
--Revising the control parameter for automatic loading multi-chamber
Central Wafer Handling (CWH) systems in 3B001.e to relax controls on
two classes of CWH systems that have been found to be of less

proliferation concern and to place the focus on more advanced CWH.
--Adding technical notes for 3B001.e to provide definitions of two
terms used in the control text in order to remove ambiguity in the
control.

Category 4--Computers

    ECCN 4A001 is amended by:

--Removing a reference to 4A001.b from the Limited Value Shipment (LVS)
paragraph of the License Exception section, because paragraph 4A001.b
is removed by this rule.
--Adding a reference to Category 5 Part 2 to the Related Controls
paragraph in the List of Items Controlled section, to correspond with
the removal of 4A001.b, described below.
--Removing and reserving 4A001.b, which stated ``Having the
characteristics or performing functions exceeding the limits in
Category 5, Part 2 (``Information Security'')'', because such hardware
and software is controlled under 5A002 and 5D002 in Category 5, Part 2.
This change clarifies where this equipment and software is controlled
in the CCL.

    ECCN 4A003 is amended by:

--Revising the control parameters for equipment specially designed for
aggregating the performance of ``digital computers'' in 4A003.g to move
the control threshold up, to account for bi-directional connectivity at
double the threshold, as well as to narrow the scope of control to
ensure that only the equipment of concern is controlled.

Category 4--Product Group D--Software

--Revising the Note at the beginning to remove the sentence, ``The
control status of `software' for equipment described in this Category
is dealt with herein,'' because most software for computers contains
encryption, which is controlled in Category 5.

    ECCN 4D001 is amended by increasing the APP from 0.1 to 0.25 WT in
4D001.b.1 to account for technological advancements in processor
technology and to set an APP that will remain relevant for several
years.
    ECCN 4D003, ``Software having characteristics or performing
functions exceeding the limits in Category 5, Part 2 (Information
Security),'' is removed in order to keep all such software controls in
Category 5 part 2.
    ECCN 4D993 is amended by revising the Heading in order to remove
the reference to ECCN 4D003, which is removed by this rule.
    ECCN 4E001 is amended by increasing the APP from 0.1 to 0.25 WT in
4E001.b.1 to account for technological advancements in processor
technology and to set an APP that will remain relevant for several
years.

Category 5 Part 1--Telecommunications

    Note 1 in the beginning of Category 5 Part 1 is amended by removing
the word ``lasers'', because a new nota bene is added to reference ECCN
6A005 for ``lasers'' specially designed for telecommunications
equipment or systems.
    ECCN 5A001 is amended by re-inserting back License Exceptions GBS
and CIV in the License Exception section. These were inadvertently
removed by the Wassenaar 2008 implementation rule on December 11, 2009
(74 FR 66000).
    ECCN 5B001 is amended by removing and reserving paragraphs
5B001.b.1 and b.3 in the Items paragraph of the List of Items
Controlled section, because these controls are no longer necessary as
they have been overtaken by the continued advancement in infrastructure
transmission and switching technology, and because of the wide usage of
this equipment in commercial applications.
    ECCN 5D001 is amended by removing and reserving paragraphs
5D001.d.1 and d.3 in the Items paragraph of the List of Items
Controlled section, to harmonize with the removal of 5B001.b.1 and b.3
in this rule.
    ECCN 5E001 is amended by:

--Revising the total digital transfer rate from 15 Gbit/s to 50 Gbit/s
in paragraph 5E001.c.1, to reflect advancement in infrastructure
transmission and switching technology.
--Revising the text in the technical note to 5E001.c.1 to make it clear
that the control applies to telecommunication switching equipment and
to provide additional detail to clarify the text.
--Adding an additional parameter to the existing parameter in 5E001.c.3
to narrow the scope of control.

Category 6--Sensors and Lasers

    ECCN 6A001 is amended by:

--Adding 6A001.a.1.e to the list of commodities ineligible for License
Exception LVS, because this newly added commodity is on the sensitive
list of the Wassenaar Arrangement.
--Revising paragraphs a.1.a and a.1.d in the Items paragraph of the
List of Items Controlled section, to clarify the text.
--Adding paragraph a.1.e to the Items paragraph of the List of Items
Controlled section to control active individual sonars, specially
designed or modified to detect, locate and automatically classify
swimmers or divers. This new control is necessary to close the loophole
that exists for these commercial sonar based detection systems that are
nearly equivalent to existing military systems.

    ECCN 6A005 is amended by:

--Revising the CW output power from ``10W'' to ``15 W'' for individual,
multiple-transverse mode semiconductor ``lasers'' in paragraph d.1.b.1
of the Items paragraph because of worldwide technological advancement.
--Replacing the term ``arrays'' with ``bars'' because this is a more
appropriate term for this control in paragraph d.1.c. The revisions in
this rule include adding a definition for ``bar'' and ``stacked array''
in the Technical Notes at the end of 6A005.d.1.
--Revising the CW output power from ``80 W'' to ``100 W'' for
individual semiconductor laser bars in paragraph d.1.c.1, because the
power density export controls otherwise applied to these laser bars
provide enough control to justify relaxing the export controls for CW
output power in this entry.
--Revising paragraph 6A005.d.1.d from a control over ``array stacks of
semiconductor laser containing at least one array controlled by
6A005.d.1.c'' to a control over ``semiconductor laser stacked arrays
(two-dimensional arrays), having any of the following * * *'' and
adding control paragraphs that contain a variation of parameters that
include: Wavelength, average or Continuous Wave (CW) total output
power, average or CW output ``power density,'' peak pulsed power
density, spatial coherent average or CW total output power, because the
existing control was inadequate to control lasers of this type that are
militarily critical items.

    ECCN 6A008 is amended by:

--Removing the resolution parameter (12 reasonable elements per mm)
from the Note at the beginning of the Items paragraph pertaining to
displays or monitors used for Air Traffic Control (ATC), because today
ATC terminals typically use raster scan displays and the removed
parameter is not relevant to raster scan terminals.
--Moving the Note after 6A008.f pertaining to Precision Approach Radar
(PAR) equipment to the Note at the beginning of the Items paragraph,

for better visibility. The stated intent of paragraph 6A008.f is to
capture radar systems that can be used to detect ``human movement'' or
to detect ``small sub munitions,'' and PARs are not capable of this
level of detection.
--Removing the double quotes from around the term ``electronically
steerable phased array antennae'' and removing the word ``phased'' in
6A008.e, because more advanced radar systems are now using time delay
techniques, rather than phase shifters, to electronically steer radar
beams. Deletion of the word ``phased'' will expand the scope of control
to capture all electronically steered arrays (ESA), which was the
original intent of the control.

    Revising the parameter in 6A008.l.4 for data processing subsystems
to include controls on radar sensors that are integrated into such
subsystems through separate processing equipment such as computers.
    ECCN 6C004 is amended by revising 6C004.b and .e to add the
Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry numbers for better
identification of the chemicals that are controlled.
    ECCN 6D003 is amended by:

--Adding paragraph 6D003.a.5 to control software or source code,
specially designed for real time processing of acoustic data for
detection devices. The software is loaded onto standard commercial PCs
and is critical for advanced detection and classification.
--Revising paragraph 6D003.h.1 pertaining to Air Traffic Control (ATC)
software to account for technological advancements.

Category 7--Navigation and Avionics

    ECCN 7A005 is amended by:

--Revising the Heading to capitalize the words associated with the
acronym (GNSS), removing the acronyms ``GPS and GLONASS,'' adding the
words ``having any of the following,'' and moving the parenthetical to
the added License Requirements section to harmonize with WA text.
--Adding a License Requirements section that will contain a note
stating, ``These items are subject to the export licensing authority of
the U.S. Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls.
See 22 CFR part 121.''
--Adding a List of Items Controlled section to harmonize the format
with other ECCN entries in the CCL and to provide transparency to the
public of the WA text for this ECCN.

    ECCN 7B001 is amended by replacing the word ``removal'' with
``disassembly or repair'' and removing the phrase ``from the SRA'' at
the end of paragraph 2 in the Related Definitions paragraph of the List
of Items Controlled section. This change makes it clear that
replacement or removal of gyros, accelerometers, and in some cases the
inertial sensor assembly containing these sensors, is considered a
``Maintenance Level II'' repair. This change also clarifies that these
assemblies are generally considered to be Shop Replaceable Assembly
(SRA) within the avionics repair industry.
    ECCN 7D003 is amended by revising paragraph b.2 to capitalize the
words associated with the acronym (GNSS) and delete the parenthetical
reference to GPS and GLONASS.
    ECCN 7E004 is amended by:

--Adding the word ``systems'' in two places in the nota bene of
paragraph b.6 in the Items paragraph, to reflect amendments made in
this rule to 9E003;
--Adding double quotes around ``Full Authority Digital Engine Control
Systems'' and ``FADEC Systems'' in the nota bene of paragraph b.6 in
the Items paragraph, to reflect amendments made in this rule to 9E003;
--Revising the reference in the nota bene in paragraph b.6 of the Items
paragraph from ``9E003.a.9'' to ``9E003.h'', to be consistent with the
amendments made by this rule to 9E003.

Category 9--Aerospace and Propulsion

    ECCN 9A001 is amended by:

--Removing text from the Heading to more accurately reflect the scope
of what is controlled in this ECCN and replacing ``as follows'' with
``having any of the following'';
--Revising paragraph 9A001.a by adding ``or 9E003.h'' to be consistent
with amendments made by this rule to 9E003. This revision will result
in the control of aero gas turbine engines incorporating any of the
technologies controlled by 9E003.h.

    ECCN 9A003 is amended by revising the heading to add ``or 9E003.h''
to be consistent with amendments made by this rule to ECCN 9E003. This
will result in the control of specially designed assemblies and
components incorporating any of the technologies controlled by 9E003.h
for gas turbine engine propulsion systems that meet the parameters of
ECCN 9A003.
    ECCN 9B002 is amended by revising the heading to add ``or 9E003.h''
as a consequential change of revision this rule makes to ECCN 9E003.
This will result in the control of on-line (real time) control systems,
instrumentation (including sensors) or automated data acquisition and
processing equipment, specially designed for the ``development'' of gas
turbine engines, assemblies or components incorporating
``technologies'' controlled by 9E003.h.
    ECCN 9D003 is amended by:

--Adding the word ``Systems'' in two places in the Heading, and adding
double quotes around the term ``FADEC Systems'' to correctly refer to
the term as a system;
--Adding the word ``system'' and adding double quotes around the term
``FADEC system'' in the NS and MT license requirement paragraphs in the
License Requirements section, for consistency;
--Removing the reference to 9A110 in the MT control paragraph of the
License Requirements section, because MT does not apply to 9A110.
--Moving the ending double quote from after ``FADEC'' to after ``FADEC
systems'' in 9D003.b, for consistency.

    ECCN 9E003 is amended by:

--Revising the Significant Item (SI) control paragraph in the License
Requirements section, to reflect amendments made by this rule in
paragraphs 9E003.a.9, h, and i and to correct the SI scope of license
requirements. SI controls now apply to 9E003.a.1. through a.8, a.10, h
and i;
--Removing and reserving paragraph a.9 in the Items paragraph of the
List of Items Controlled section in order to add a more detailed
control for FADEC systems in 9E003.h;
--Redesignating paragraph h as i and adding a new paragraph h in the
Items paragraph of the List of Items Controlled section, to add more
specific and detailed control paragraphs for ``FADEC systems''
technology; and
--Revising new paragraph 9E003.i to harmonize references to paragraphs
in 9E003 that were revised by this rule.

Section 734.4 De minimis U.S. Content

    Section 734.4 is amended by removing the phrase ``9E003.a.1.
through a.11, and .h.'' and adding in its place ``9E003.a.1 through
a.8, a.10, h and i.'' in paragraph (a)(4) ``Items for which there is no
de minimis level.'' This change is made to harmonize with revisions to
paragraphs ECCN 9E003.a.9, h, and i in this rule.

Section 742.14 Significant Items: Hot Section Technology for the
Development, Production or Overhaul of Commercial Aircraft Engines,
Components, and Systems

    This rule harmonizes the list of paragraphs under ECCN 9E003 that
are controlled for SI reasons with the list in section 742.14. The
paragraphs of ECCN 9E003 that are controlled for SI reasons are
9E003.a.1 through a.8, a.10, h and i.

Section 743.1 Wassenaar Arrangement

    WA has three levels of control of goods: Basic List, Sensitive
List, and Very Sensitive List. As a matter of policy, BIS makes certain
items on the WA Basic and Sensitive List eligible for license
exceptions. However, because of the U.S. obligations under its
agreements to the WA, the U.S. must report on SL items exported outside
of the WA membership countries. BIS does this by gathering data from
its licensing database. However, to collect data on exports made under
license exceptions, BIS requires WA reporting on SL items exported
under certain license exceptions. As a result of WA making changes to
its Sensitive List, this rule makes corresponding changes to the
reporting requirements of section 743.1 of the EAR (e.g., replacing
9E003.a.9 with 9E003.h). This rule revises reporting requirements for
ECCNs 4D001, 4E001 and 6A003.b.3. For 6A003.b.3, this rule adds the
phrase ``except imaging cameras specially designed or modified for
underwater use.'' For 4D001 and 4E001, this rule revises the APP from
``0.1 Weighted TeraFLOPS (WT)'' to ``0.5 WT.'' This rule makes
editorial revisions to reporting requirements in ECCN 6A003.b.4. This
rule adds WA reporting requirements for ECCNs 6D003.a and 9E003.a.1 and
a.3. WA reporting requirements may be found in Section 743.1 of the
EAR. Editorial revisions are made to the last sentence in section
743.1(c)(2), to provide the correct description of where to find the
guidelines for calculating APP in the EAR.

Supplement No. 2 to Part 744--List of Items Subject to the Military
End-Use License Requirement of Sec.  744.21

    As a result of WA removing ECCN 4D003, the entry for ECCN 4D993 is
revised to remove the reference to ECCN 4D003 in paragraph (4)(ii) of
Supp. No. 2 to part 744 of the EAR. This change should not result in
any change in license requirements or applications submitted to BIS.

Section 772.1 Definitions of Terms as Used in the Export Administration
Regulations (EAR)

    As a result of the decisions reached at the 2009 WA Plenary, this
rule removes the following terms from section 772.1 of the EAR: CE,
Computing Element, Interconnected radar sensors, Personalized smart
card, Q-switched laser, and Three Dimensional Vector Rate. This rule
also revises references to categories in many definitions as a result
of WA decisions. This rule also adds the following terms as a result of
WA agreements: ``Energetic materials'' (Cat 1), ``Fuel cell'' (Cat 8),
and ``Laser duration.'' There is no category designation for the term
``laser duration,'' because it is a term used in the definition of two
other terms listed in section 772.1 of EAR, specifically, ``average
output power'' and ``peak power.'' This rule also revises the following
terms: ``All compensations available'' and removes and replaces
references to categories in certain defined terms to be consistent with
amendments made by this rule. This rule revises the definition of ``all
compensations available'' by adding the phrase ``or measuring errors
for the particular coordinate measuring machine.'' The definition of
``Full Authority Digital Engine Control,'' has been completely
rewritten. Additionally, the note in the term ``peak power'' is removed
because it included a definition for ``laser duration,'' which will now
be defined as separate term in section 772.1. The WA revisions to
definitions do not always coincide with the format of the EAR. For
example, when WA removes definitions that are used in unilateral ECCNs,
BIS does not remove them, or for example, when WA removes a reference
to a category of the CCL, BIS still uses the term in a unilateral entry
of the category.

Export Administration Act

    Since August 21, 2001, the Export Administration Act of 1979, as
amended, has been in lapse. However, the President, through Executive
Order 13222 of August 17, 2001 (3 CFR, 2001 Comp. 783 (2002)), which
has been extended by successive Presidential Notices, the most recent
being that of August 12, 2010, 75 FR 50681 (August 16, 2010) has
continued the EAR in effect under the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1707).

Saving Clause

    Shipments of items removed from license exception eligibility or
eligibility for export without a license as a result of this regulatory
action that were on dock for loading, on lighter, laden aboard an
exporting carrier, or en route aboard a carrier to a port of export, on
September 7, 2010, pursuant to actual orders for export to a foreign
destination, may proceed to that destination under the previous license
exception eligibility or without a license so long as they have been
exported from the United States before November 8, 2010. Any such items
not actually exported before midnight, on November 8, 2010, require a
license in accordance with this regulation.

Rulemaking Requirements

    1. This final rule has been determined to be significant for
purposes of Executive Order 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 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 rule
involves two collections of information subject to the PRA. One of the
collections has been approved by OMB under control number 0694-0088,
``Multi Purpose Application,'' and carries a burden hour estimate of 58
minutes for a manual or electronic submission. The other of the
collections has been approved by OMB under control number 0694-0106,
``Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements under the Wassenaar
Arrangement,'' and carries a burden hour estimate of 21 minutes for a
manual or electronic submission. 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; and to Jasmeet Seehra,
OMB Desk Officer, by e-mail at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or by
fax to<PHONE_NUMBER>; and to the Office of Administration, Bureau of
Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, 14th and Pennsylvania
Avenue, NW., Room 6622, Washington, DC 20230.
    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications
as that term is defined under Executive Order 13132.
    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 (5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). Immediate implementation of these
amendments fulfills the United States' international obligation to the
Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls for Conventional Arms and Dual
Use Goods and Technologies. The Wassenaar Arrangement contributes to
international security and regional stability by promoting greater
responsibility in transfers of conventional arms and dual use goods and
technologies, thus preventing destabilizing accumulations of such
items. The Wassenaar Arrangement consists of 40 member countries that
act on a consensus basis and the changes set forth in this rule
implement agreements reached at the December 2009 plenary session of
the WA. Since the United States is a significant exporter of the items
in this rule, implementation of this provision is necessary for the WA
to achieve its purpose. Any delay in implementation will create a
disruption in the movement of affected items globally because of
disharmony between export control measures implemented by WA members,
resulting in tension between member countries. Export controls work
best when all countries implement the same export controls in a timely
manner. If this rulemaking was delayed to allow for notice and comment,
it would prevent the United States from fulfilling its commitment to
the WA in a timely manner and would injure the credibility of the
United States in this and other multilateral regimes.
    Further, 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. Therefore, this regulation is issued in final form.
Although there is no formal comment period, public comments on this
regulation are welcome on a continuing basis. Comments should be
submitted to Sharron Cook, Office of Exporter Services, Bureau of
Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, 14th and Pennsylvania
Ave., NW., Room 2705, Washington, DC 20230.

a.10, .h and .i, and related controls. These controls supplement the
national security controls that apply to these items. Applications for
export and reexport to all destinations will be reviewed on a case-by-
case basis to determine whether the export or reexport is consistent
with U.S. national security and foreign policy interests. The following
factors are among those that will be considered to determine what
action will be taken on license applications:
