[Docket No. FAA–2013–0996; Airspace 

Docket No. 12–AAL–9] 

Amendment of Class E Airspace; 

Kuparuk, AK 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action modifies Class E 

airspace at Ugnu-Kuparuk Airport, 

Kuparuk, AK. Controlled airspace is 

necessary to accommodate aircraft using 

the new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global 

Positioning System (GPS) standard 

instrument approach procedures at the 

airport. This action enhances the safety 

and management of aircraft operations 

at the airport. This action will also make 

an adjustment to the geographic 

coordinates of the airport. 

DATES: Effective date, 0901 UTC, July 

24, 2014. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under 1 CFR Part 51, 

subject to the annual revision of FAA 

Order 7400.9 and publication of 

conforming amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On February 5, 2014 the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to modify controlled airspace at UgnuKuparuk Airport, Kuparuk, AK (79 FR 

6841). Interested parties were invited to 

participate in this rulemaking effort by 

submitting written comments on the 

proposal to the FAA. No comments 

were received. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005, of FAA 

Order 7400.9X dated August 7, 2013, 

and effective September 15, 2013, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designations 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in that Order. 

The Rule 

This action amends Title 14 Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Part 71 by 

modifying Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

and establishing Class E airspace 

extending upward from 1,200 feet above 

the surface at Ugnu-Kuparuk Airport, 

Kuparuk, AK. Class E airspace 

extending upward from 700 feet above 

the surface is modified to within a 6.5- 

mile radius of the airport, with a 

segment extending from the 6.5-mile 

radius of the airport to 9.5-miles east of 

the airport. The segment of controlled 

airspace west of the airport is removed 

as it is no longer required. A segment of 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

1,200 feet above the surface is 

established within a 20-mile radius of 

the airport to allow aircraft to transition 

to the overlying airways. This action 

enhances the safety and management of 

IFR operations at the airport. Also, the 

geographic coordinates of the airport are 

updated to be in concert with the FAAs 

aeronautical database. 

The FAA has determined this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current. Therefore, this regulation: (1) Is 

not a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ 

under Executive Order 12866; (2) is not 

a ‘‘significant rule’’ under DOT 

Regulatory Policies and Procedures (44 

FR 11034; February 26, 1979); and (3) 

does not warrant preparation of a 

regulatory evaluation as the anticipated 

impact is so minimal. Since this is a 

routine matter that only affects air traffic 

procedures and air navigation, it is 

certified this rule, when promulgated, 

does not have a significant economic 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities under the criteria of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act. The FAA’s 

authority to issue rules regarding 

aviation safety is found in Title 49 of the 

U.S. Code. Subtitle 1, Section 106 

discusses the authority of the FAA 

Administrator. Subtitle VII, Aviation 

Programs, describes in more detail the 

scope of the agency’s authority. This 

rulemaking is promulgated under the 

authority described in Subtitle VII, Part 

A, Subpart I, Section 40103. Under that 

section, the FAA is charged with 

prescribing regulations to assign the use 

of airspace necessary to ensure the 

safety of aircraft and the efficient use of 

airspace. This regulation is within the 

scope of that authority as it amends 

controlled airspace at Ugnu-Kuparuk 

Airport, Kuparuk, AK. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1E, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 311a. This airspace action is 

not expected to cause any potentially 

significant environmental impacts, and 

no extraordinary circumstances exist 

that warrant preparation of an 

environmental assessment.

DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

22 CFR Parts 120, 121, and 124 

[Public Notice: 8728] 

RIN 1400–AD33 

Amendment to the International Traffic 

in Arms Regulations: Revision of U.S. 

Munitions List Category XV 

AGENCY: Department of State. 

ACTION: Interim final rule. 

SUMMARY: As part of the President’s 

Export Control Reform (ECR) effort, the 

Department of State is amending the 

International Traffic in Arms 

Regulations (ITAR) to revise Category 

XV (Spacecraft and Related Articles) of 

the U.S. Munitions List (USML) to 

describe more precisely the articles 

warranting control in that category. The 

revisions contained in this rule are part 

of the Department of State’s 

retrospective plan under Executive 

Order 13563 completed on August 17, 

2011. This rule is published as an 

interim final rule because the 

Department believes that substantial 

national security benefits will flow from 

the changes to the controls on spacecraft 

and related items, but acknowledges 

that additional analysis of and public 

comment on the control thresholds for 

remote sensing satellites are warranted. 

DATES: This rule is effective November 

10, 2014, except for § 121.1, Category 

XV(d), which is effective June 27, 2014. 

Interested parties may submit comments 

on paragraphs (a)(7) and (e)(11) of 

USML Category XV and ITAR § 124.15 

by June 27, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: Interested parties may 

submit comments on paragraphs (a)(7) 

and (e)(11) of USML Category XV and 

ITAR § 124.15 within 45 days of the 

date of publication by one of the 

following methods: 

• E-mail: DDTCResponseTeam@

state.gov with the subject line, ‘‘USML 

Category XV(a)(7) and (e)(11) and ITAR 

§ 124.15.’’ 

• Internet: At www.regulations.gov, 

search for this notice by using this 

notice’s RIN (1400–AD33). 

Comments received after that date 

may be considered if feasible, but

because those comments and/or 

transmittal emails will be made 

available for public inspection and 

copying after the close of the comment 

period via the Directorate of Defense 

Trade Controls Web site at 

www.pmddtc.state.gov. Parties who 

wish to comment anonymously may do 

so by submitting their comments via 

www.regulations.gov, leaving the fields 

that would identify the commenter 

blank and including no identifying 

information in the comment itself. 

Comments submitted via

C. Edward Peartree, Director, Office of 

Defense Trade Controls Policy,

USML Category XV. The Department of 

State’s full retrospective plan can be

documents/organization/181028.pdf. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Directorate of Defense Trade Controls 

(DDTC), U.S. Department of State, 

administers the International Traffic in 

Arms Regulations (ITAR) (22 CFR parts 

120–130). The items subject to the 

jurisdiction of the ITAR, i.e., ‘‘defense 

articles’’ and ‘‘defense services,’’ are 

identified on the ITAR’s U.S. Munitions 

List (USML) (22 CFR 121.1). With few 

exceptions, items not subject to the 

export control jurisdiction of the ITAR 

are subject to the jurisdiction of the 

Export Administration Regulations 

(‘‘EAR,’’ 15 CFR 730–774, which 

includes the Commerce Control List 

(CCL) in Supplement No. 1 to part 774), 

administered by the Bureau of Industry 

and Security (BIS), U.S. Department of 

Commerce. Both the ITAR and the EAR 

impose license requirements on exports, 

reexports, and retransfers. Items not 

subject to the ITAR, or to the exclusive 

licensing jurisdiction of any other set of 

regulations, are subject to the EAR. 

All references to the USML in this 

rule are to the list of defense articles and 

defense services controlled for the 

purpose of export or temporary import 

pursuant to the ITAR, and not to the 

defense articles on the USML that are 

controlled by the Bureau of Alcohol, 

Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) 

for the purpose of permanent import 

under its regulations. See 27 CFR 447. 

Pursuant to section 38(a)(1) of the Arms 

Export Control Act (AECA), all defense 

articles controlled for export or import 

are part of the USML under the AECA. 

For the sake of clarity, the list of defense 

articles controlled by ATF for the 

purpose of permanent import is the U.S. 

Munitions Import List (USMIL). The 

transfer of defense articles from the 

ITAR’s USML to the EAR’s CCL for the 

purpose of export control does not affect 

the list of defense articles controlled on 

the USMIL under the AECA for the 

purpose of permanent import. 

Changes in This Rule 

The following changes are made to 

the ITAR with this interim final rule: (i) 

Revision of U.S. Munitions List (USML) 

Category XV (Spacecraft and Related 

Articles); (ii) amendment to paragraph 

(i) of USML Category IV, regarding 

spacecraft-launch vehicle integration 

and launch failure analysis services; (iii) 

conforming edits to ITAR § 124.15, 

regarding special export controls for 

satellites and satellite launches; and (iv) 

amendment to ITAR § 120.10(b) to 

include telemetry data to the list of 

exclusions from technical data. The 

Department notes that there is a shorter 

implementation period for radiationhardened microelectronic circuits 

formerly described in paragraph (d) of
