DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 6900] 

Termination of Ineligible Status and 

Statutory Debarment Pursuant to 

Section 38(g)(4) of the Arms Export 

Control Act and Section 127.7 of the 

International Traffic in Arms 

Regulations for ITT Corporation 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

the Department of State has terminated 

the ineligible status and statutory 

debarment of ITT Corporation, pursuant 

to section 38(g)(4) of the Arms Export 

Control Act (AECA) (22 U.S.C. 2778) 

and section 127.7 of the International 

Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). 

DATES: Effective Date: February 4, 2010. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lisa 

V. Studtmann, Director, Office of 

Defense Trade Controls Compliance, 

Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, 

Bureau of Political-Military Affairs, 

Department of State (202) 663–2477. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

38(g)(4) of the AECA and section 127.11 

of the ITAR prohibit the issuance of 

export licenses or other approvals to 

persons if those persons, or any party to 

the export, have been convicted of 

violating the AECA and certain other 

U.S. criminal statutes enumerated at 

section 38(g)(1) of the AECA and section 

120.27 of the ITAR. Such individuals 

are considered ineligible in accordance 

with section 120.1 of the ITAR. Also, 

persons convicted of violating the AECA 

are subject to statutory debarment under 

section 127.7 of the ITAR. 

In March 2007, ITT Corporation 

pleaded guilty to violating the AECA 

(U.S. District Court, Western District of 

Virginia, Case #7:07–cr–00022–sgw). 

Based on this plea, ITT Corporation was 

ineligible in accordance with section 

120.1 of the ITAR and was statutorily 

debarred pursuant to section 127.7 of 

the ITAR. After a full review of the 

circumstances, finding that appropriate 

steps were taken to mitigate any law 

enforcement concerns, the Department 

decided to except out all ITT business 

units but the culpable ITT entity 

responsible for the violations resulting 

in the aforementioned plea, ITT-Night 

Vision Division. ITT-Night Vision 

Division was thus prohibited from 

participating directly or indirectly in 

exports of defense articles and defense 

services. Notice of debarment was 

published in the Federal Register (72 

Federal Register 18310, April 11, 2007). 

Subsequently, in December 2007 ITT 

Corporation entered into a consent 

agreement with the State Department 

which detailed penalties and remedial 

compliance measures to be completed 

in order to be considered for 

reinstatement following a minimum 

period of one year debarment. 

In accordance with section 38(g)(4) of 

the AECA and section 127.7 of the 

ITAR, the ineligible status and statutory 

debarment may be terminated after 

consultation with other appropriate U.S. 

agencies, after a thorough review of the 

circumstances surrounding the 

conviction, and a finding that 

appropriate steps have been taken to 

mitigate any law enforcement concerns. 

The Department of State has reviewed 

the circumstances and consulted with 

other appropriate U.S. agencies, and has 

determined that ITT Corporation has 

taken appropriate steps to address the 

causes of the violations and to mitigate 

any law enforcement concerns. 

Therefore, in accordance with section 

38(g)(4) of the AECA and section 127.7 

of the ITAR, ITT Corporation is no 

longer ineligible and the statutory 

debarment is rescinded, effective 

February 4, 2010. 

Dated: February 4, 2010. 

Andrew J. Shapiro, 

Assistant Secretary, Bureau of PoliticalMilitary Affairs, Department of State.
