### 24558 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 84 / Thursday, May 1, 2014 / Rules and Regulations

(c) Applicability

This AD applies to SOCATA TBM 700 airplanes, manufacturer serial numbers (MSN) 1 through 98, 100 through 156, and 158 through 161, certificated in any category.

(d) Subject

Air Transport Association of America (ATA) Code 55: Stabilizers.

(e) Reason

This AD was prompted by mandatory continuing airworthiness information (MCAI) originated by an aviation authority of another country to identify and correct an unsafe condition on an aviation product. The MCAI describes the unsafe condition as cracks on the outboard hinge fittings. We are issuing this AD to require the use of new service information issued by DAHER–SOCATA to eliminate the stress on the outboard hinge fittings, which is causing the cracks. If this condition is not prevented, the outboard hinge fittings could fail causing reduced structural integrity of the horizontal stabilizer, which could result in reduced control.

(f) Actions and Compliance

Unless already done, within the next 100 hours time-in-service after June 5, 2014 (the effective date of this AD) or within the next 12 months after June 5, 2014 (the effective date of this AD), whichever occurs first, install shims on the outboard hinge fittings of the horizontal stabilizer. Do the modification following the Accomplishment
Instructions in DAHER–SOCATA TBM Aircraft Mandatory Service Bulletin SB 70– 080, Amendment 3, dated September 2013.

(g) Credit for Actions Done Following Previous Service Information

This AD allows credit for the actions required in paragraph (f) of this AD if done before June 5, 2014 (the effective date of this AD), following DAHER–SOCATA TBM Aircraft Mandatory Service Bulletin SB 70– 080, Amendment 2, dated August 2012.

(h) Other FAA AD Provisions

The following provisions also apply to this
AD:

(1) Alternative Methods of Compliance (AMOCs): The Manager, Standards Office, FAA, has the authority to approve AMOCs for this AD, if requested using the procedures found in 14 CFR 39.19.

**RIN 0694–AG12**

**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 thirteen persons under fourteen entries to the Entity List. 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 Cyprus, Luxembourg and Russia. There are fourteen entries to address thirteen persons because one person is being listed in multiple countries, resulting in an additional entry. Specifically, the additional entry covers one person in Luxembourg who also has an address in
Russia.

**DATES :**  Effective Date: This rule is effective May 1, 2014.

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT :**  Karen Nies-Vogel, Chair, End-User Review Committee, Office of the Assistant Secretary, Export Administration, Bureau of Industry and Security, Department of Commerce, Phone: (202) 482–5991, Fax: (202) 482– 3911, Email: ERC@bis.doc.gov.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Background

The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744) 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 (in-country) 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


### 24559 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 84 / Thursday, May 1, 2014 / Rules and Regulations

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. The Departments represented on the ERC approved these changes to the Entity List.

ERC Entity List Decisions
Additions to the Entity List

This rule implements the decision of the ERC to add thirteen persons under fourteen 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 thirteen persons added to the Entity List consist of one person in Cyprus, one person in Luxembourg and twelve persons in Russia.

The ERC reviewed § 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) in making the determination to add these thirteen 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.

The thirteen persons being added to the Entity List 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. The U.S. Government has determined that the Russian Federation’s actions—including the deployment of Russian Federation military and intelligence forces in the Crimea area of Ukraine (Occupied Crimea) and Eastern Ukraine—are in clear violation of Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity and a breach of international law, including Russia’s obligations under the United Nations Charter and under its 1997 military basing agreement with Ukraine. They are also inconsistent with the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, under which, in response to certain commitments by Ukraine, Russia, the United States and the United Kingdom, the signatories consecrated the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine as an independent state by applying the principles of territorial integrity and nonintervention found in the Helsinki Final Act, the accords signed by the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe of 1975. The Russian Federation’s actions also conflict with the Vienna Document of 1979, as adopted by the members of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (of which the Russian Federation is a member), which includes a provision for exchange and verification of military information among membership, including but not limited to prior notification of military activities such as major troop exercises.

On March 6, 2014, the President of the United States issued Executive Order 13660 (79 FR 13491), Blocking Property of Certain Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine, finding that the actions and policies of persons who have asserted governmental authority in Occupied Crimea without the authorization of the Government of Ukraine undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets, and thereby constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. The Executive Order also declares a national emergency to deal with that threat.

On March 16, 2014, the President of the United States issued Executive Order 13661 (79 FR 15533), Blocking Property of Additional Persons Contributing to the Situation in Ukraine. That order expanded the scope of the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13660, finding that the actions and policies of the Government of the Russian Federation with respect to Ukraine—including the recent deployment of Russian Federation military forces in Occupied Crimea— undermine democratic processes and institutions in Ukraine; threaten its peace, security, stability, sovereignty, and territorial integrity; and contribute to the misappropriation of its assets, and thereby constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United
States.

Specifically, Executive Order 13661 includes a directive that all property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person (including any foreign branch) of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in: persons who have materially assisted, sponsored or provided financial, material or technological support for, or goods and services to or in support of a senior official of the government of the Russian Federation. Under Section 8 of the order, all agencies of the United States Government are directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the provisions of the order.

The Department of the Treasury, pursuant to Executive Order 13661, has designated the thirteen persons identified below. In conjunction with that designation, the Department of Commerce imposes a license requirement for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) to these blocked persons. This license requirement implements an appropriate measure within the authority of the EAR to carry out the provisions of Executive Order 13661. The entities being added to the Entity List under this rule, Stroytransgaz Holding, Volga Group, Aquanika, Avia Group LLC, Avia Group Nord LLC, CJSC Zest, Sakhatrans LLC, Stroytransgaz Group, Stroytransgaz LLC, Stroytransgaz OJSC, Stroytransgaz-M LLC, Stroygazmontazh, and Transoil are owned or controlled by, directly or indirectly, persons whose property and interests in property were blocked by the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control on March 20, 2014 pursuant to Executive Order 13661. One of the persons being added to the Entity List under this rule, Volga Group, has addresses in both Luxembourg and Russia. The additional address accounts for the fourteenth entry for the thirteen persons being added to the Entity List in this rule.

Pursuant to § 744.11 of the EAR, the conduct of these thirteen persons raises sufficient concern that prior review ofexports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of items subject to the EAR involving these persons, and the possible imposition of license conditions or license denials on shipments to these persons, will enhance BIS’s ability to protect the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States.

For the thirteen persons added to the Entity List, there is 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 (in-country) to any of the persons or in which such persons act as purchaser, intermediateconsignee, ultimate consignee, or enduser. In addition, no license exceptions are available for exports, reexports, or transfers (in-country) to the persons being added to the Entity List in this rule.

This final rule adds the following thirteen persons under fourteen entries to the Entity List:

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


### 24561 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 84 / Thursday, May 1, 2014 / Rules and Regulations

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, publishing a proposed rule would give these parties notice of the U.S. Government’s intention to place them on the Entity List and 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, and/or to take steps to set up additional aliases, change addresses, and 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.

. **SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Background

The Entity List (Supplement No. 4 to Part 744) 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 (in-country) 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 nine persons under nine 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 nine entries added to the Entity List consist of nine entries in China.

The ERC reviewed § 744.11(b) (Criteria for revising the Entity List) in making the determination to add these nine 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
