[Docket No. FAA–2014–0046; Airspace 

Docket No. 14–ASO–1] 

Amendment of Class E Airspace; Elkin, 

NC 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This action amends Class E 

Airspace at Elkin, NC, to accommodate 

a new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global 

Positioning System (GPS) Standard 

Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) 

serving Elkin Municipal Airport. This 

enhances the safety and management of 

aircraft operations at the airport. This 

action also updates the geographic 

coordinates of airport. 

DATES: Effective 0901 UTC, July 24, 

2014. The Director of the Federal 

Register approves this incorporation by 

reference action under title 1, Code of 

Federal Regulations, part 51, subject to 

the annual revision of FAA Order 

7400.9 and publication of conforming 

amendments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

History 

On March 18, 2014, the FAA 

published in the Federal Register a 

notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) 

to amend Class E airspace at Elkin 

Municipal Airport, Elkin, NC, (79 FR 

15067). 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 the Order. 

The Rule 

This amendment to Title 14, Code of 

Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 

amends Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

within a 9.3-mile radius of Elkin 

Municipal Airport, Elkin, NC. Airspace 

reconfiguration is necessary due to the 

development of the RNAV (GPS) RWY 

7 approach and for continued safety and 

management of IFR operations at the 

airport. The geographic coordinates of 

the airport also are adjusted to be in 

concert with FAA’s aeronautical 

database. 

The FAA has determined that this 

regulation only involves an established 

body of technical regulations for which 

frequent and routine amendments are 

necessary to keep them operationally 

current, is non-controversial and 

unlikely to result in adverse or negative 

comments. It, therefore, (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 that 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 United States Code. 

Subtitle I, Section 106 describes 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 Elkin Municipal 

Airport, Elkin, NC. 

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

Addition of Certain Persons to the 

Entity List 

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This rule amends the Export 

Administration Regulations (EAR) by 

adding twenty-six persons under thirtyone entries to the Entity List 

(Supplement No. 4 to Part 744). The 

persons who are added to the Entity List 

have been determined by the U.S. 

Government to be acting contrary to the 

national security or foreign policy

interests of the United States. These 

persons will be listed on the Entity List 

under the destinations of China, Hong 

Kong, Lebanon and the United Arab 

Emirates (U.A.E.). There are thirty-one 

entries for twenty-six persons because 

five persons are listed under multiple 

countries, resulting in the additional 

five entries. Specifically, those five 

additional entries cover two persons in 

Lebanon who also have addresses in the 

U.A.E., and three persons in Hong Kong 

who also have addresses in China. 

In addition to the Entity List changes 

described above, this final rule updates 

the authority for part 730 (15 CFR part 

730) because of the publication of the 

Notice of May 7, 2014, Continuation of 

the National Emergency With Respect to 

the Actions of the Government of Syria, 

which resulted in a change to the legal 

authority for part 730 of the EAR. 

DATES: Effective Date: This rule is 

effective June 5, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Entity List notifies the public 

about entities that have engaged in 

activities that could result in an 

increased risk of the diversion of 

exported, reexported or transferred (incountry) items to weapons of mass 

destruction (WMD) programs. Since its 

initial publication, grounds for 

inclusion on the Entity List have 

expanded to include activities 

sanctioned by the State Department and 

activities contrary to U.S. national 

security or foreign policy interests, 

including terrorism and export control 

violations involving abuse of human 

rights. Certain exports, reexports, and 

transfers (in-country) to entities 

identified on the Entity List require 

licenses from BIS and are usually 

subject to a policy of denial. The 

availability of license exceptions in 

such transactions is very limited. The 

license review policy for each entity is 

identified in the license review policy 

column on the Entity List and the 

availability of license exceptions is 

noted in the Federal Register notices 

adding persons to the Entity List. BIS 

places entities on the Entity List based 

on certain sections of part 744 (Control 

Policy: End-User and End-Use Based) of 

the EAR. 

The End-user Review Committee 

(ERC), composed of representatives of 

the Departments of Commerce (Chair), 

State, Defense, Energy and, where 

appropriate, the Treasury, makes all 

decisions regarding additions to, 

removals from, or other modifications to 

the Entity List. The ERC makes all 

decisions to add an entry to the Entity 

List by majority vote and all decisions 

to remove or modify an entry by 

unanimous vote. 

ERC Entity List Decisions 

Additions to the Entity List 

This rule implements the decision of 

the ERC to add twenty-six persons 

under thirty-one entries to the Entity 

List on the basis of § 744.11 (License 

requirements that apply to entities 

acting contrary to the national security 

or foreign policy interests of the United 

States) of the EAR. The thirty-one 

entries added to the Entity List consist 

of three entries in China, seven entries 

in Hong Kong, six entries in Lebanon, 

and fifteen in the U.A.E. 

The ERC reviewed § 744.11(b) 

(Criteria for revising the Entity List) in 

making the determination to add these 

twenty-six persons to the Entity List. 

Under that paragraph, persons for whom 

there is reasonable cause to believe, 

based on specific and articulable facts, 

have been involved, are involved, or 

pose a significant risk of being or 

becoming involved in, activities that are 

contrary to the national security or 

foreign policy interests of the United 

States, and those acting on behalf of 

such persons, may be added to the 

Entity List. Paragraphs (b)(1) through 

(b)(5) of § 744.11 include an illustrative 

list of activities that could be contrary 

to the national security or foreign policy 

interests of the United States. 

The twenty-six persons being added 

have been determined by the ERC to be 

involved in activities that are contrary 

to the national security or foreign policy 

interests of the United States, 

specifically the activities described 

under paragraphs (b)(1), (b)(2) and/or 

(b)(4) of § 744.11. 

The ERC has determined that two 

persons being added to the Entity List 

under the destination of Hong Kong 

have been involved in activities 

contrary to the national security and 

foreign policy interests of the United 

States, specifically the activities 

described under paragraph 

(b)(4)(Preventing Accomplishment of an 

End-Use Check) of § 744.11 of the EAR. 

The ERC has reasonable cause to believe 

that Sinovac Technology Limited and 

Bing Lu have been involved in the 

reexport of sensitive U.S.-origin items to 

unauthorized end-users and have 

prevented the accomplishment of an 

end-use check by or on behalf of BIS. 

The ERC also determined that the 

following nineteen persons being added 

to the Entity List under the destinations 

of Lebanon and the U.A.E. have been 

involved in activities contrary to the 

national security and foreign policy 

interests of the United States, 

specifically the activities described 

under paragraph (b)(1)(Supporting 

persons engaged in acts of terror) of 

§ 744.11 of the EAR. The ERC has 

reasonable cause to believe that 

Lebanon-based New Intelcom, Power 

S.A.L., Zener Lebanon, and Wave Tech, 

as well as U.A.E.-based Wave Tech 

Computers, Wave Tech Group, Source 

Com, al Tawasul al Arabi Net Systems, 

Zener Marine, Zener Navcom, Zener 

One Net, Zener Electrical & Electronics, 

Zener Electronics Services, Ivan 

Desouza, Girish Purushothama, Taha 

Mansur and Ahmad Assad Fa’ur, as well 

as al Ajwa al Tiqniah, and Husayn Fa’ur 

have attempted to procure U.S. 

technology on behalf of persons 

involved in activities contrary to the 

national security and foreign policy 

interests of the United States. 

Specifically, these persons have been 

involved in supplying U.S.-origin items 

to persons designated by the Secretary 

of State as Foreign Terrorist 

Organizations without the required 

authorizations. Two of the persons, al 

Ajwa al Tiqniah and Husayn Fa’ur, are 

being listed under addresses in both 

Lebanon and the U.A.E. These two 

additional addresses account for the 

twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth 

entries for the twenty-six persons being 

added to the Entity List in this rule. 

Finally, the ERC determined that the 

following five persons being added to 

the Entity List under the destinations of 

Hong Kong and China have engaged in 

actions contrary to the national security 

and foreign policy interests of the 

United States, specifically the activities 

described under paragraph (b)(2) of 

§ 744.11 of the EAR (Actions that could 

enhance the military capability of, or 

the ability to support terrorism of 

governments that have been designated 

by the Secretary of State as having 

repeatedly provided support for 

international acts of terrorism). 

Specifically, these persons have engaged 

in actions that could enhance the 

capabilities of the Syrian government. 

These persons are also being added 

because their overall conduct and 

deceptive practices pose a risk of 

ongoing violations of the EAR. These 

persons, Kinglead Electronic Co., Ltd., 

JLD Technology Hong Kong Co., Ltd., 

Synergy Express Ltd., BVI Electronics 


rmajette on DSK2TPTVN1PROD with RULES
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 108 / Thursday, June 5, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 32443 

and Alpha Lam, participated in a 

complex and layered network that 

diverted U.S. origin items through 

China and Hong Kong and engaged in 

deceptive actions, including shifting/ 

circuitous routes and false or omitted 

information on shipping 

documentation, in an attempt to conceal 

their activities. These persons, while not 

under the same ownership or 

management, are interrelated and 

arranged for the transshipment of items 

subject to the EAR to end-users 

associated with the government of Syria 

and knowingly engaged in violations of 

U.S. export control laws. Three of the 

persons, Kinglead Electronics Co., Ltd., 

Alpha Lam, and BVI Electronics, are 

listed under addresses in both Hong 

Kong and China. These three additional 

addresses account for the twenty-ninth, 

thirtieth and thirty-first entries for the 

twenty-six persons being added to the 

Entity List in this rule. 

Pursuant to § 744.11(b)(1), (b)(2), and 

(b)(4) of the EAR, the ERC determined 

that the conduct of these twenty-six 

persons raises sufficient concern that 

prior review of exports, reexports, or 

transfers (in-country) of items subject to 

the EAR involving these persons, and 

the possible imposition of license 

conditions or license denials on 

shipments to the persons, will enhance 

BIS’s ability to prevent violations of the 

EAR. 

For the twenty-six persons 

recommended for addition, the ERC 

specified a license requirement for all 

items subject to the EAR and a license 

review policy of presumption of denial. 

The license requirements apply to any 

transaction in which items are to be 

exported, reexported, or transferred (incountry) to any of the persons or in 

which such persons act as purchaser, 

intermediate consignee, ultimate 

consignee, or end-user. In addition, no 

license exceptions are available for 

exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) to the persons being added to 

the Entity List in this rule.

Updated Statement of Legal Authority 

for the EAR 

In addition to the Entity List changes 

described above, this final rule also 


rmajette on DSK2TPTVN1PROD with RULES
32444 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 108 / Thursday, June 5, 2014 / Rules and Regulations 

updates the authority for part 730 (15 

CFR part 730) because of the publication 

of the Notice of May 7, 2014, 

Continuation of the National Emergency 

With Respect to the Actions of the 

Government of Syria, 79 FR 26589 (May 

9, 2014), which resulted in a change to 

the legal authority for part 730 of the 

EAR. This change is purely procedural 

and makes no changes other than to 

revise the CFR authority paragraph in 

part 730 for the purpose of making the 

authority citations current. It does not 

change the text of any section of part 

730, nor does it alter any right, 

obligation or prohibition that applies to 

any person under the EAR. 

Savings Clause 

Shipments of items removed from 

eligibility for a License Exception or 

export or reexport without a license 

(NLR) as a result of this regulatory 

action that were en route aboard a 

carrier to a port of export or reexport, on 

June 5, 2014, pursuant to actual orders 

for export or reexport to a foreign 

destination, may proceed to that 

destination under the previous 

eligibility for a License Exception or 

export or reexport without a license 

(NLR). 

Export Administration Act 

Although the Export Administration 

Act expired on August 20, 2001, the 

President, through Executive Order 

13222 of August 17, 2001, 3 CFR, 2001 

Comp., 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 8, 

2013, 78, 2013, 78 FR 49107 (August 12, 

2013), 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, 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, of 

reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, 

and of promoting flexibility. This rule 

has been determined to be not 

significant for purposes of 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 regulation 

involves collections previously 

approved by OMB under control 

number 0694–0088, Simplified Network 

Application Processing System, which 

includes, among other things, license 

applications and carries a burden 

estimate of 43.8 minutes for a manual or 

electronic submission. Total burden 

hours associated with the PRA and 

OMB control number 0694–0088 are not 

expected to increase as a result of this 

rule. You may send comments regarding 

the collection of information associated 

with this rule, including suggestions for 

reducing the burden, to Jasmeet K. 

Seehra, Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB), by email to 

Jasmeet_K._Seehra@omb.eop.gov, or by 

fax to (202) 395–7285. 

3. This rule does not contain policies 

with Federalism implications as that 

term is defined in Executive Order 

13132. 

4. The provisions of the 

Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 

553) requiring notice of proposed 

rulemaking, the opportunity for public 

comment and a delay in effective date 

are inapplicable because this regulation 

involves a military or foreign affairs 

function of the United States. (See 5 

U.S.C. 553(a)(1)). BIS implements this 

rule to protect U.S. national security or 

foreign policy interests by preventing 

items from being exported, reexported, 

or transferred (in country) to the persons 

being added to the Entity List. If this 

rule were delayed to allow for notice 

and comment and a delay in effective 

date, then entities being added to the 

Entity List by this action would 

continue to be able to receive items 

without a license and to conduct 

activities contrary to the national 

security or foreign policy interests of the 

United States. In addition, because these 

parties may receive notice of the U.S. 

Government’s intention to place these 

entities on the Entity List if a proposed 

rule is published, doing so would create 

an incentive for these persons to either 

accelerate receiving items subject to the 

EAR to conduct activities that are 

contrary to the national security or 

foreign policy interests of the United 

States, or to take steps to set up 

additional aliases, change addresses, 

and effect other measures to try to limit 

the impact of the listing on the Entity 

List once a final rule was published. 

Further, no other law requires that a 

notice of proposed rulemaking and an 

opportunity for public comment be 

given for this rule. Because a notice of 

proposed rulemaking and an 

opportunity for public comment are not 

required to be given for this rule by 5 

U.S.C. 553, or by any other law, the 

analytical requirements of the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 

et seq., are not applicable. Accordingly, 

no regulatory flexibility analysis is 

required and none has been prepared. 

5. For the updated statement of legal 

authority for the EAR change, the 

Department finds that there is good 

cause under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B) to 

waive the provisions of the 

Administrative Procedure Act requiring 

prior notice and the opportunity for 

public comment because they are 

unnecessary. This change only updates 

the legal authority citation for part 730. 

It clarifies information and is nondiscretionary. This change does not alter 

any right, obligation or prohibition that 

applies to any person under the EAR. 

Because this revision is not a 

substantive change, it is unnecessary to 

provide notice and opportunity for 

public comment. In addition, the 30-day 

delay in effectiveness required by 5 

U.S.C. 553(d) is not applicable because 

this change is not substantive. Because 

neither the Administrative Procedure 

Act nor any other law requires that 

notice of proposed rulemaking and an 

opportunity for public comment be 

given for this rule, the analytical 

requirements of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) are 

not applicable.

[Docket No. 120813326–4163–02] 

RIN 0648–BC18 

U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing 

System; Regulations To Certify and 

Integrate Regional Information 

Coordination Entities 

AGENCY: U.S. Integrated Ocean 

Observing System Program Office 

(IOOS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Integrated Ocean 

Observing System Program Office, led 

by the National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

issues this final rule to implement 

provisions of the Integrated Coastal and 

Ocean Observation System Act of 2009 

(ICOOS Act). Among other things, the 

ICOOS Act directs the Interagency 

Ocean Observation Committee (IOOC) to 

develop and approve certification 

criteria and procedures for integrating 

regional information coordination 

entities (RICEs) into the National 

Integrated Coastal and Ocean 

Observation System (System). This rule 

accomplishes that goal. This rule also 

implements the provisions of the ICOOS 

Act establishing that certified entities 

integrated into the System are, for the 

purposes of determining liability arising 

from the dissemination and use of 

observation data, considered part of 

NOAA and therefore their employees 

engaged in the collection, management, 

and dissemination, of observation data 

in the System receive the same tort 

protections for use of that data as 

Federal employees. 

DATES: Effective date: July 7, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of the final rule are 

available upon request to U.S. Integrated 

Ocean Observing System Program 

Office, 1100 Wayne Ave., Suite 1225, 

Silver Spring, MD 20910. The final rule 

can also be viewed on the Web and
