ITAR/EAR Transition For Cat XI (electronics)Participate! • Positive list vs. Illustrative list • Two proposed rules published • 77FR70958 (Nov 28, 2012) and 78FR45017 (Jul 25, 2013) • Multiple entries that potentially affect test & measurement industry • Signal Analyzers • Tuners • Digital RF Memory (DRFM) • Associated BIS rule, ECCN 3B611 • Agilent and others submitted many public comments • This is an essential part of the regulatory process (Administrative Procedures Act) • All comments (positive or critical) are useful • Comments are read/reviewed/considered • Participation in advisory committees (Federal Advisory Committee Act)
“Specially Designed”Limited impact for test & measurement • “Constructive ambiguity” vs. clarity in the scope of control • Agilent’s major ECCNs are 3A002, 3A292, 3A992, 5B001, 5B991 • “…and specially designed components therefor” • Included in 3A292/5B001 • Excluded from 3A002/3A992/5B991 • Customer transactions involving parts/components normally limited to repair • Practical impact is mostly internal compliance • Regulations are not static, e.g. • Positive list of components to replace the “specially designed components” catchall • Modify the definition
