So what exactly are Export Controls?

Export

: An actual shipment or transmission of items, services, or technical data out of the United States, or the release of technology, software, or technical data to a foreign national in the United States. Technology, software, or technical data is “released” for export through:

Visual inspection by a foreign national of U.S. origin equipment and facilities;Oral exchanges of information in the United States or abroad;Transfer or shipment via any means (physical or electronic) to a foreign entity;Provision of a service, or the application to situations abroad of personal knowledge or technical experience acquired in the United States.

Controls

: A systems of laws, regulations and guidelines established by an empowered body to restrict otherwise unregulated activities in a manner designed to either facilitate certain socially desirable goals or to deter certain socially undesirable consequencesSlide3

So who exactly are foreign persons/nationals

Foreign Person/Foreign National

: A term of exclusion – Anyone who is not…

A U.S. Citizen;Natural, or NaturalizedA permanent resident alien (Green Card)

Political Refuge or Asylee

Foreign Person/Foreign National also includes foreign governments, foreign government agents, and foreign corporations or entities (i.e. a business not organized or incorporated under U.S. law).

SO WHAT?

Foreign Persons/Nationals:

Students

EmployeesVisiting ScientistsCollaboratorsEnd-usersSponsorsSuppliersViolations are subject to significant penaltiesSlide5

We are not in a position to operate as a research university without the heavy involvement of foreign scholars.

And these numbers are increasing as international student enrollments increase nationwide!

http://www.iie.org/Research-and-Publications/Open-Doors/Data#.WBdmXfkrKCg

For the

2014/2015 Academic Year – International Student registrations increased 9

.1%

to

974,926 students nationwide.

Chinese student registrations increased by 10.8% overall to a total of nearly 304,040 students (31.2% of the total international student population).

Indian student registrations numbered nearly 132,888, a 29.4% increase (13.6% of total).

South Korean student registrations numbered nearly 63,710 (6.5% of total).

Combined China, India and South Korean students represent 51.3% of the total population of international students in the U.S. All combined more than 60% of the foreign students in the U.S. are from the SE Asia Region.

To put this is perspective, there are >3x more foreign students in the U.S. than U.S. students abroad (U.S. Foreign Study Students – 304,467)!Slide7

Export Control Regulations – An Example….

1.)

The following commodities are under the export licensing authority of the Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (22 CFR part 121) when "space qualified" and operating at frequencies higher than 31.8 GHz: helix tubes (traveling wave tubes (TWT)) defined in 3A001.b.1.a.4.c; microwave solid state amplifiers defined in 3A001.b.4.b traveling wave tube amplifiers (TWTA) defined in 3A001.b.8; and derivatives thereof; 2.) "Space qualified" and radiation hardened photovoltaic arrays, as defined in 3A001.e.1.c, having silicon cells or having single, dual or triple junction solar cells that have gallium arsenide as one of the junctions, are subject to the export licensing authority of the Department of Commerce. All other "space qualified" and radiation hardened photovoltaic arrays defined in 3A001.e.1.c and spacecraft/satellite concentrators and batteries are under the export licensing authority of the Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (22 CFR part 121). See also 3A101, 3A201, and 3A991. Related Definitions: For the purposes of integrated circuits in 3A001.a.1, 5 x 103

Gy(Si) = 5 x 105 Rads

(Si); 5 x 106 Gy (Si)/s = 5 x 108

Rads

(Si)/s. For purposes of photovoltaic arrays in 3A001.e.1.c, an array predominately consists of: a substrate; solar cells having silicon cells or having single, dual, and or triple junction solar cells that have gallium arsenide as one of the junctions;

coverglass

; ultra-violet coating(s); and bonding agent(s). Spacecraft/satellite: solar concentrators, power conditioners and or controllers, bearing and power transfer assembly, and or deployment hardware/systems are controlled under the export licensing authority of the Department of State, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (22 CFR part 121).Slide11

Export Administration Regulations (EAR)

EAR Covers:

All items in the U.S.;

All U.S. origins items in the U.S. and abroad; and,All foreign origin items incorporating more than a specified amount of EAR controlled technologyItems of specific coverage under the EAR are listed on the CCL in enumerated paragraphs called ECCN (Export Control Classification Numbers)Slide21

Export Administration Regulations (EAR)

How to read an ECCN (

eg

. 3A992):1. The initial alpha-numeric in an ECCN stands for the general category on CCL into which the item falls.

0 – Nuclear & Miscellaneous

1 – Materials, Chemicals,

Microorganisms & Toxins

2 – Materials Processing

3 – Electronics

4 – Computers

5a – Telecommunications

5b – Information Security

6 – Sensors and Lasers

7 – Navigation and Avionics

8 – Marine

9 – Aerospace and Propulsion Slide22

Export Administration Regulations (EAR)

How to read an ECCN (

eg

. 3A992):2. The second alpha-numeric in an ECCN stands for product group within the broader category into which the item falls.

A – Systems, Equipment and Components

B – Test, Inspection and Production Equipment

C – Material

D – Software

E - TechnologySlide23

Export Administration Regulations (EAR)

How to read an ECCN (

eg

. 3A992):3. The remaining alpha-numeric grouping in an ECCN stands for itemized listing location within the product group.Items not listed in an ECCN are designated EAR99.Slide24

Once you have your ECCN, you can determine:

Reason for control (AT, NS, NO, etc.);

Country specific controls; and,Available exemptions and exceptionsLVS – Low Value ShipmentsCivilian End-UsesShipments to Country Group B CountriesSlide26

Export Administration Regulations (EAR)Slide27

Export Administration Regulations (EAR)

Unlike the ITAR, the level

of

control under EAR is variable based on item designation, item specifications, intended use and/or intended recipient:Numerous exemptions or exceptions may applyLevel of control is based on the facts at hand (who, what, where and, sometimes, why)Exemptions or exceptions will largely not apply to embargoed countries.Slide28

Office of Foreign Asset Controls(OFAC)

Administered by the Department of Treasury

Various laws apply (e.g. Trading with the Enemy Act)

Agency – Office of Foreign Asset Controls (OFAC)Governs restrictions on transactions/interactions with embargoed nations and restricted partiesCountry-based embargoes (e.g. Cuba or Iran)Activity based embargoes or restrictions (e.g. Terrorism or Narcotics related controls)Each embargo or control regime is specific to that country or groupingSlide30

Office of Foreign Asset Controls(OFAC)

Requires prior screening for potential limitations on economic relationships with individuals and/or companies

Restriction lists are multi-faceted, may control:

Financial transactions;TravelExport/import of goods/serviceListings may be managed or controlled by other government entitiesPenn State has purchased a site-license for commercial screening softwareSlide31

Office of Foreign Asset Controls(OFAC)

Certain embargoes have General Licenses to permit activities deemed appropriate without review. Such activities typically relate to humanitarian efforts, such as medical assistance and educational/academic activities.

Other activities with a restricted person/embargoed country may require obtaining a Specific License from OFAC

OFAC license process is less regimented and detailed than under either the ITAR or the EARSlide32
