  • Start Preamble

    AGENCY:

    Bureau of Industry and Security, Commerce.

    ACTION:

    Final rule.

    SUMMARY:

    In this rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to revise the existing Validated End-User (VEU) list for the People's Republic of China (PRC) by updating the list of eligible destinations (facilities) and eligible items in Supplement No. 7 to part 748 for Lam Research Service Co., Ltd. (Lam). The End-User Review Committee (ERC) reviewed and authorized the amendments to the eligible facilities in response to a request made by Lam and in accordance with established procedures. Changes to the list of eligible items are technical corrections intended to improve clarity. As a consequence of these amendments, the EAR will include an updated and accurate list of eligible items (items that may be exported, reexported and transferred (in-country)), and eligible Lam facilities in the PRC. Publication of this rule supports the VEU program by providing information that assists the exporting public.

    DATES:

    This rule is effective October 23, 2017.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    Background

    Authorization Validated End-User

    Validated End-Users (VEUs) are designated entities located in eligible destinations to which eligible items may be exported, reexported, or transferred (in-country) under a general authorization instead of a license. The names of the VEUs, as well as the dates they were so designated, and the associated eligible destinations (facilities) and items are identified in Supplement No. 7 to part 748 of the EAR. Pursuant to section 748.15 (Authorization Validated End-User (VEU)), eligible destinations of VEUs may obtain eligible items without the need for the VEUs' supplier to obtain an export or reexport license from BIS. Eligible items vary among VEUs and may include commodities, software, and/or technology, except items controlled for missile technology or crime control reasons on the Commerce Control List (CCL) (Supp. No. 1 to part 774 of the EAR).

    VEUs are reviewed and approved by the U.S. Government in accordance with the provisions of § 748.15 and Supplement Nos. 8 and 9 to part 748 of the EAR. The ERC, composed of representatives from the Departments of State, Defense, Energy and Commerce, and other agencies as appropriate, is responsible for administering the VEU program. BIS amended the EAR in a final rule published on June 19, 2007 (72 FR 33646), to create Authorization VEU.

    Amendments to Existing VEU Authorization for Lam Research Service Co., Ltd. (Lam) in the People's Republic of China (PRC)

    Revision to the List of “Eligible Destinations” (Facilities) and “Eligible Items” for Lam

    In this rule, BIS amends Supplement No. 7 to part 748 to revise the eligible facilities in the PRC and the items that may be exported, reexported or transferred (in-country) to those facilities under VEU authorization for Lam. Specifically, the amendments to Lam's eligible facilities, including modifications to the name and/or address, addition of new facilities, and a facility removal, are being made in response to a request from Lam. The End-User Review Committee reviewed and authorized the amendments in accordance with established procedures.

    BIS also makes a technical update to the list of Lam's eligible items to increase clarity and transparency, as described further below.

    Facilities

    Revisions to Lam's Eligible Facilities

    Prior to this rule, Lam's VEU authorization included 18 facilities in the PRC. Of those facilities, 13 remain substantially unchanged in Supplement No. 7 to part 748 apart from minor edits made by BIS to punctuation and display (e.g., adding a space after asterisks and removing unnecessary commas) of addresses for the 13 facilities, as set forth below. BIS also updated the address for one facility, updated the names of two facilities, updated both Start Printed Page 48926the name and address of one facility, and removed one facility. In this rule, BIS also adds six facilities to Lam's VEU authorization. With the publication of this rule, Lam's total number of facilities in the PRC is 23. Specific revisions to the list of Lam facilities are as follows:

    Items

    Revisions to Lam's Eligible Items

    For all Lam's facilities, this rule limits the authorization for ECCNs 2B230, 2B350.c, 2B350.d, 2B350.g, 2B350.h, 2B350.i and 3B001.e to items for the installation, warranty maintenance/repair, or maintenance/repair service of semiconductor manufacturing equipment manufactured by Lam. These end-use limits for eligible items are not new. Previously, these limitations were imposed as a condition to the authorization given to Lam, rather than specified in the description of eligible items set forth in Supplement No. 7 to Part 748.

    This rule also limits the authorization for 3D001 software (excluding source code) for all facilities to allow only such software that is specially designed for the “development” or “production” of equipment controlled by paragraph .e of ECCN 3B001. A similar limitation is made for 3D002 software (excluding source code) for all facilities, so that only such software that is specially designed for the “use” of equipment controlled by paragraph .e of ECCN 3B001 qualifies as an eligible item. These changes are consistent with the fact that 3B001.c no longer appears under Lam's list of Eligible items. As a result of a foreign availability determination, BIS removed the items under paragraph .c from the CCL with the publication of the Wassenaar Arrangement Regime 2015 Implementation Rule on September 20, 2016 (81 FR 64656). Paragraph .c to 3B001 is now reserved in the CCL. The changes made by this rule recognize that paragraph .c of 3B001 no longer exists by now limiting the authorization for all Lam facilities to certain software related to paragraph .e of 3B001, rather than software that relates to all paragraphs of 3B001.

    Lastly, for Lam's “Warehouse Facilities,” identified by a single asterisk in Supplement No. 7 to part 748, this rule further limits the scope of the authorization for items under ECCN 3E001 to “development” “technology” according to the General Technology Note of a type of equipment classified under paragraph .e of ECCN 3B001. For Lam's “Sales Offices,” identified by a set of double asterisks in Supplement No. 7 to part 748, this rule narrows the scope of eligible ECCN 3E001 items to “development” “technology” or “production” “technology” according to the General Technology Note of a type to support integration, assembly (mounting), inspection, testing, and quality assurance of equipment classified under paragraph .e of ECCN 3B001. Although the wording of the eligible 3E001 items changed slightly in an attempt to improve clarity, this change also reflects the removal of paragraph .c of ECCN 3B001 from the Lam list of eligible items, consistent with change to the CCL, as described above, by limiting the eligible technology to items only associated with paragraph .e of ECCN 3B001.

    In summary, Eligible Items both for Lam's “Warehouse Facilities” and for “Sales Offices” will include items classified under ECCNs 2B230, 2B350.c, 2B350.d, 2B350.g, 2B350.h, 2B350.i, 3B001.e, 3D001, 3D002, and 3E001, subject to certain very specific limits. The difference between what is eligible for export to “Warehouse Facilities,” identified by a single asterisk in Supplement No. 7 to part 748, and what is eligible for export to “Sales Offices,” identified by two asterisks in Supplement No. 7 part 748, is in the limitations placed on eligible ECCN 3E001 technology. As explained above, and in the rule text, eligible 3E001 technology for “Warehouse Facilities” will only include certain “development” technology, while eligible 3E001 technology for “Sales Offices” will include certain “development” technology and certain “production” technology.

    Export Administration Act of 1979

    Although the Export Administration Act of 1979 expired on August 20, 2001, the President, through Executive Order 13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 2001 Start Printed Page 48928Comp., p. 783 (2002), as amended by Executive Order 13637 of March 8, 2013, 78 FR 16129 (March 13, 2013) and as extended by the Notice of August 15, 2017, 82 FR 39005 (August 16, 2017), has continued the Export Administration Regulations in effect under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. BIS continues to carry out the provisions of the Export Administration Act of 1979, as appropriate and to the extent permitted by law, pursuant to Executive Order 13222 as amended by Executive Order 13637.

    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, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, reducing costs, harmonizing rules, and promoting flexibility. This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes 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 is required to respond to nor 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 collections previously approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under Control Number 0694-0088, “Multi-Purpose Application,” which carries a burden hour estimate of 43.8 minutes to prepare and submit form BIS-748; and for recordkeeping, reporting and review requirements in connection with Authorization VEU, which carries an estimated burden of 30 minutes per submission. This rule is expected to result in a decrease in license applications submitted to BIS. Total burden hours associated with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (PRA) and OMB Control Number 0694-0088 are not expected to increase significantly as a result of this rule.

    3. This rule does not contain policies with Federalism implications as that term is defined under Executive Order 13132.

    4. Pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), BIS finds good cause to waive the otherwise applicable requirements that this rule be subject to notice and the opportunity for public comment because it is unnecessary. In determining whether to grant VEU designations, a committee of U.S. Government agencies evaluates information about and commitments made by candidate companies, the nature and terms of which are set forth in 15 CFR part 748, Supplement No. 8. The criteria for evaluation by the committee are set forth in 15 CFR 748.15(a)(2). The information, commitments, and criteria for this extensive review were all established through the notice of proposed rulemaking (71 FR 38313, July 6, 2006), the public comment process, and issuance of the final rule establishing Authorization VEU (72 FR 33646, June 19, 2007). The publication of this rule does not establish new policy. In publishing this final rule, BIS amends the authorization for an existing eligible VEU in order to update eligible destinations (facilities) and eligible items. This change has been made within the established regulatory framework of the VEU program. Because the criteria and process for authorizing and administering VEUs were developed with public comments, allowing additional public comment on this amendment to an existing individual VEU authorization, which was determined according to those criteria, is unnecessary.

    Publication of this rule in other than final form is unnecessary because the amendments made by this rule are consistent with the authorizations granted to exporters for individual export licenses (and amendments or revisions thereof), which do not undergo public review. As with license applications, VEU authorization applications contain confidential business information, which is necessary for the extensive review conducted by the U.S. Government in assessing such applications. This information is extensively reviewed according to the criteria for VEU authorizations, as set out in 15 CFR 748.15(a)(2). Just as license applications are reviewed through an interagency review process, the authorizations granted under the VEU program involve interagency deliberation and result from review of public and non-public sources, including licensing data, and the measurement of such information against the VEU authorization criteria. Given the nature of the review, and in light of the parallels between the VEU application review process and the review of license applications, public comment on the underlying authorization and any subsequent amendments that update the authorization prior to publication is unnecessary. Moreover, because, as noted above, the criteria and process for authorizing and administering VEUs were developed with public comments, allowing additional public comment on this amendment to an individual VEU authorization, which was determined according to those criteria, is unnecessary.

    Section 553(d) of the APA provides that rules generally may not take effect earlier than thirty (30) days after they are published in the Federal Register. However, BIS finds good cause to waive the 30-day delay in effectiveness for this rule pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3) because the delay would be contrary to the public interest. With this rule, BIS is simply amending the authorization of an existing VEU to update the eligible destinations (facilities) and eligible items. The amendments to the EAR in this rule are consistent with established objectives and parameters administered and enforced by the responsible designated departmental representatives to the End-User Review Committee. Delaying this action's effectiveness would likely cause confusion for the public regarding which items are authorized by the U.S. Government to be shipped to which eligible destination (facility), thereby undermining the efficacy of the VEU Program. Accordingly, it is contrary to the public interest to delay this rule's effectiveness.

    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 under the APA or by any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are not applicable. As a result, no final regulatory flexibility analysis is required and none has been prepared.
