Addition of Certain Entities to the 

Entity List; Correction of Existing 

Entry on the Entity List 

AGENCY: Bureau of Industry and 

Security, Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This final rule amends the 

Export Administration Regulations 

(EAR) by adding four entities to the 

Entity List. These four entities have 

been determined by the U.S. 

Government to be acting contrary to the 

foreign policy and national security 

interests of the United States and will be 

listed on the Entity List under the 

destination of Burma. This rule also 

amends the EAR by correcting the 

address of one entity, listed under 

Burma, on the Entity List. 

DATES: This rule is effective July 6, 

2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Entity List 

The Entity List (supplement no. 4 to 

part 744 of the EAR) identifies entities 

for which there is reasonable cause to 

believe, based on specific and 

articulable facts, that the entities have 

been involved, are involved, or pose a 

significant risk of being or becoming 

involved in activities contrary to the 

national security or foreign policy 

interests of the United States. The EAR 

(15 CFR parts 730–774) impose 

additional license requirements on, and 

limit the availability of most license 

exceptions for, exports, reexports, and 

transfers (in-country) to listed entities. 

The license review policy for each listed 

entity is identified in the ‘‘License 

Review Policy’’ column on the Entity 

List, and the impact on the availability 

of license exceptions is described in the 

relevant Federal Register document 

adding entities to the Entity List. BIS 

places entities on the Entity List 

pursuant to part 744 (Control Policy: 

End-User and End-Use Based) and part 

746 (Embargoes and Other Special 

Controls) 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 makes all 

decisions to remove or modify an entry 

by unanimous vote. 

Burma 

This rule is part of an ongoing effort 

by the United States Government to 

impose restrictions on Burmese entities 

that support the Burmese military as 

part of a broader response to the 

February 1, 2021 coup by the military, 

which overthrew Burma’s 

democratically-elected government. On 

February 10, 2021, President Biden 

signed Executive Order (E.O.) 14014, 

‘‘Blocking Property With Respect to the 

Situation in Burma’’ (E.O. 14104), in 

which he declared a national emergency 

to address the threat posed to the United 

States by the situation in, and in 

relation to, Burma following the coup. 

See 86 FR 9429 (Feb. 12, 2021). 

Since February 2021, BIS has taken 

several actions under the EAR to 

strengthen export controls on Burma. 

These include the publication of 

‘‘Burma: Implementation of Sanctions’’ 

(86 FR 10011) on February 18, 2021; 

‘‘Burma: Implementation of Sanctions’’ 

(86 FR 13173) on March 8, 2021; 

‘‘Addition of Entities to the Entity List’’ 

(86 FR 13179) on March 8, 2021; and 

‘‘Expansion of Certain End-Use and 

End-User Controls and Controls on 

Specific Activities of U.S. Persons; 

Corrections; and Burma Sanctions’’ (86 

FR 18433) on April 9, 2021. 

ERC Entity List Decisions 

Additions to the Entity List 

This rule implements the decision of 

the ERC to add four entities to the Entity 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES
35390 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 126 / Tuesday, July 6, 2021 / Rules and Regulations 

List. The four entities are added based 

on § 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 four entities are located in 

Burma. 

By making these Entity List additions, 

this final rule further strengthens export 

controls on Burma and addresses the 

foreign policy and national security 

concerns that formed the basis for the 

issuance of E.O. 14104. This rule also 

supports the United States 

Government’s efforts to promote an 

immediate return to democracy in 

Burma. Specifically, BIS is adding the 

following four entities to the Entity List 

under the destination of Burma: Wanbao 

Mining, Ltd. and its two subsidiaries, 

Myanmar Wanbao Mining Copper, Ltd. 

and Myanmar Yang Tse Copper, Ltd.; 

and King Royal Technologies Co., Ltd. 

In particular, by adding Wanbao 

Mining, Ltd., Myanmar Wanbao Mining 

Copper, Ltd., and Myanmar Yang Tse 

Copper, Ltd. to the Entity List, this rule 

enhances the U.S. Government’s efforts 

to ensure that items subject to the EAR 

are not available for copper mining 

operations by these three entities, which 

have revenue-sharing agreements with 

Myanmar Economic Holdings Limited 

(MEHL). MEHL provides revenue for 

Burma’s Ministry of Defence, an entity 

responsible for the February 1, 2021 

military coup. On March 8, 2021, BIS 

added MEHL and the Ministry of 

Defence to the Entity List. See 86 FR 

13179 (March 8, 2021). Additionally, 

BIS is adding King Royal Technologies 

Co., Ltd., a telecommunications 

company, to the Entity List for 

providing satellite communication 

services in support of the Burmese 

military. 

Pursuant to § 744.11(b) of the EAR, 

the ERC determined that the conduct of 

the above-described four entities raises 

sufficient concerns that prior review, via 

the imposition of a license requirement 

for exports, reexports, or transfers (incountry) of all items subject to the EAR 

involving these four entities and the 

possible issuance of license denials or 

the possible imposition of license 

conditions on shipments to these 

entities, will enhance BIS’s ability to 

prevent violations of the EAR or 

otherwise protect U.S. national security 

or foreign policy interests. 

For the four entities added to the 

Entity List in this final rule, BIS 

imposes a license requirement that 

applies to all items subject to the EAR. 

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. BIS imposes a license review 

policy of a presumption of denial for 

these four entities. The acronym 

‘‘a.k.a.,’’ which is an abbreviation of 

‘also known as,’ is used in entries on the 

Entity List to identify aliases, thereby 

assisting exporters, reexporters and 

transferors in identifying entities on the 

Entity List. 

For the reasons described above, this 

final rule adds the following four 

entities to the Entity List and includes, 

where appropriate, aliases: 

Burma 

• King Royal Technologies Co., Ltd.; 

• Myanmar Wanbao Mining Copper, 

Ltd.; 

• Myanmar Yang Tse Copper, Ltd.; 

and 

• Wanbao Mining, Ltd. 

Correction to the Entity List 

This final rule implements a 

correction to one existing entry on the 

Entity List for an entity that was added 

to the Entity List under the destination 

of Burma on March 8, 2021 (86 FR 

13180, March 8, 2021). Specifically, BIS 

is correcting the entry for Myanmar 

Economic Corporation by changing the 

address to refer to ‘‘Burma.’’ 

Savings Clause 

Shipments of items removed from 

eligibility for a License Exception or 

export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) 

without a license (NLR) as a result of 

this regulatory action that were en route 

aboard a carrier to a port of export, 

reexport, or transfer (in-country), on 

July 6, 2021, pursuant to actual orders 

for export, reexport, or transfer (incountry) to or within a foreign 

destination, may proceed to that 

destination under the previous 

eligibility for a License Exception or 

export, reexport, or transfer (in-country) 

without a license (NLR). 

Export Control Reform Act of 2018 

On August 13, 2018, the President 

signed into law the John S. McCain 

National Defense Authorization Act for 

Fiscal Year 2019, which included the 

Export Control Reform Act of 2018 

(ECRA) (50 U.S.C. 4801–4852). ECRA 

provides the legal basis for BIS’s 

principal authorities and serves as the 

authority under which BIS issues this 

rule. 

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 or 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 commodity 

classification, and carries a burden 

estimate of 29.6 minutes for a manual or 

electronic submission for a total burden 

estimate of 31,835 hours. Total burden 

hours associated with the PRA and 

OMB control number 0694–0088 are not 

expected to increase as a result of this 

rule. 

3. This rule does not contain policies 

with Federalism implications as that 

term is defined in Executive Order 

13132. 

4. Pursuant to section 1762 of the 

Export Control Reform Act of 2018, this 

action is exempt from the 

Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 

553) requirements for notice of 

proposed rulemaking, opportunity for 

public participation, and delay in 

effective date. 

5. 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.

Implementing Executive Order 13992, 

Revocation of Certain Executive 

Orders Concerning Federal Regulation 

AGENCY: Office of General Counsel, 

HUD. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: On November 10, 2020, the 

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban 

Development (HUD, or the Department) 

published an interim final rule that 

implemented Executive Order 13891, 

‘‘Promoting the Rule of Law Through 

Improved Agency Guidance 

Documents.’’ This order required 

Federal agencies to publish regulations 

to codify processes and procedures for 

issuing guidance documents. HUD 

created new regulations that outlined 

HUD policy and procedures for issuing 

guidance documents. On January 20, 

2021, President Biden issued Executive 

Order 13992, ‘‘Revocation of Certain 

Executive Orders Concerning Federal 

Regulation’’ which, among other things, 

revoked Executive Order 13891. After 

considering the public comments HUD 

received in response to its interim final 

rule and given the revocation of 

Executive Order 13891, this final rule 

removes the regulations HUD created in 

January.
