SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority for This Rulemaking 

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 the 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Olney 

Municipal Airport, Olney, TX, to 

support instrument flight rule 

operations at this airport. 

History 

The FAA published a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register (86 FR 71600; December 17, 

2021) for Docket No. FAA–2021–1135 to 

amend the Class E airspace at Olney, 

TX. 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 JO 7400.11F, dated August 10, 

2021, and effective September 15, 2021, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR 71.1. The Class E airspace 

designations listed in this document 

will be published subsequently in FAA 

Order JO 7400.11. 

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document amends FAA Order JO 

7400.11F, Airspace Designations and 

Reporting Points, dated August 10, 

2021, and effective September 15, 2021. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11F is publicly 

available as listed in the ADDRESSES

section of this document. FAA Order JO 

7400.11F lists Class A, B, C, D, and E 

airspace areas, air traffic service routes, 

and reporting points. 

The Rule 

This amendment to 14 CFR part 71 

amends the Class E airspace extending 

upward from 700 feet above the surface 

at Olney Municipal Airport, Olney, TX; 

removes the Olney NDB and associated 

extensions from the airspace legal 

description; removes the city associated 

with the airport in the header of the 

airspace legal description to comply 

with changes to FAA Order JO 7400.2N, 

Procedures for Handling Airspace 

Matters. 

This action is the result of an airspace 

review due to the decommissioning of 

the Olney NDB which provided 

guidance to instrument procedures at 

this airport. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, is 

published yearly and effective on 

September 15. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

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. 

Environmental Review 

The FAA has determined that this 

action qualifies for categorical exclusion 

under the National Environmental 

Policy Act in accordance with FAA 

Order 1050.1F, ‘‘Environmental 

Impacts: Policies and Procedures,’’ 

paragraph 5–6.5.a. 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.

Expansion of Sanctions Against the 

Russian Industry Sector Under the 

Export Administration Regulations 

(EAR) 

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Department of Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: In response to the Russian 

Federation’s (Russia’s) further invasion 

of Ukraine, the Department of 

Commerce is expanding the existing 

sanctions against the Russian industry 

sector by adding a new prohibition 

under the Export Administration 

Regulations (EAR) that targets the oil 

refinery sector in Russia. These new 

export controls will further limit 

revenue that could support the military 

capabilities of Russia. 

DATES: This rule is effective on March 3, 

2022.

National Security and Technology

Sanctions Expansion’’ in the subject 

line. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In response to Russia’s February 2022 

further invasion of Ukraine, the Bureau 

of Industry and Security (BIS) imposed 

extensive sanctions on Russia under the 

Export Administration Regulations (15 

CFR parts 730–774) (EAR) as part of the 

final rule, Implementation of Sanctions 

Against Russia Under the Export 

Administration Regulations (EAR), 

effective February 24, 2022 (‘‘Russia 

Sanctions rule’’).1 As described in the 

Russia Sanctions rule’s preamble, 

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine flagrantly 

violates international law, is contrary to 

U.S. national security and foreign policy 

interests, and undermines global order, 

peace, and security, and consequently 

necessitated the imposition of stringent 

sanctions. 

The export control measures 

implemented in this final rule build 

upon the policy objectives set forth in 

the Russian Sanctions rule by further 

restricting Russia’s access to items that 

it needs to support its military 

capabilities. 

The changes made by this rule are 

intended to further limit the Russian oil 

sector by restricting the export, reexport 

and transfer (in-country) of additional 

items needed for oil refining. Sale of 

gasoline produced from Russian oil is a 

major source of revenue for Russia. 

Limiting the export, reexport and 

transfer (in-country) of critical oil 

refining equipment will consequently 

reduce Russia’s ability to generate 

revenue that the country needs to 

support its military capabilities. 

As described below, this rule expands 

the scope of the sanctions against the 

Russian industry sector that were 

originally added to the EAR in August 

2014 in response to Russia’s 2014 

destabilizing conduct in Ukraine and 

occupation of the Crimea region of 

Ukraine. See 79 FR 45675 (Aug. 6, 

2014). The export controls in this final 

rule target the oil refinery sector in 

Russia. These new export controls 

under the EAR, implemented in parallel 

with similarly stringent measures by 

partner and allied countries, will further 

limit sources of revenue that could 

support the military capabilities of 

Russia. 

II. Overview of New Controls 

This final rule amends part 746 of the 

EAR (Embargoes and Other Special 

Controls) to expand the scope of the 

Russian industry sector sanctions by 

adding a new general prohibition that 

will apply to additional Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule (HTS)-6 codes and 

Schedule B numbers for all exports, 

reexports, and transfers (in-country) to 

or within Russia. 

III. Amendments to the Export 

Administration Regulations (EAR) 

A. Expansion of Russian Industry 

Sanctions and Conforming Change 

1. Expansion of Russian Industry Sector 

Sanctions by Adding a New Prohibition 

Under § 746.5 of the EAR (Russian 

industry sector sanctions), this final rule 

revises paragraph (a) (License 

requirement) to expand the scope of the 

general prohibition under paragraph 

(a)(1). Prior to this rule, this general 

prohibition applied to the export, 

reexport or transfer (in-country) of 

certain items in situations where a 

person had ‘‘knowledge,’’ for purposes 

of the EAR, that the item would be used 

directly or indirectly in Russia’s energy 

sector for exploration or production 

from deepwater, Arctic offshore, or 

shale projects in Russia that have the 

potential to produce oil or gas, or where 

a person was unable to determine 

whether the item would be used in such 

projects in Russia. 

This final rule adds a new paragraph 

(a)(1)(ii) to expand the scope of the 

general prohibition under this section 

by imposing an additional license 

requirement for exports, reexports or 

transfers (in-country) of any item subject 

to the EAR listed in new supplement no. 

4 to part 746 to and within Russia. 

Unlike the existing prohibition 

(reordered to appear in new paragraph 

(a)(1)(i)), the prohibition under new 

paragraph (a)(1)(ii) does not include a 

‘‘knowledge’’ requirement. 

This final rule also adds new 

paragraph (a)(1)(iii) to provide crossreferences to other EAR license 

requirements for Russia and guidance 

for submitting license applications 

required pursuant to this section. 

Additionally, this final rule adds new
