DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Bureau of Industry and Security
President's Export Council Subcommittee on Export Administration;
Notice of Recruitment of Private-Sector Members
SUMMARY: The President's Export Council Subcommittee on Export
Administration (PECSEA) advises the U.S. Government on matters and
issues pertinent to implementation of the provisions of the Export
Administration Act and the Export Administration Regulations, as
amended, and related statutes and regulations. These issues relate to
U.S. export controls as mandated by law for national security, foreign
policy, non-proliferation, and short supply reasons. The PECSEA draws
on the expertise of its members to provide advice and make
recommendations on ways to minimize the possible adverse impact export
controls may have on U.S. industry. The PECSEA provides the Government
with direct input from representatives of the broad range of industries
that are directly affected by export controls.
The PECSEA is composed of high-level industry and Government
members representing diverse points of view on the concerns of the
business community. PECSEA industry representatives are selected from
firms producing a broad range of goods, software, and technologies
presently controlled for national security, foreign policy, non-
proliferation, and short supply reasons or that are proposed for such
controls, balanced to the extent possible among large and small firms.
PECSEA members are appointed by the Secretary of Commerce and serve
at the Secretary's discretion. The membership reflects the Department's
commitment to attaining balance and diversity. PECSEA members must
obtain secret-level clearances prior to appointment. These clearances
are necessary so that members can be permitted access to relevant
classified information needed in formulating recommendations to the
President and the U.S. Government. The PECSEA meets 4 to 6 times per
year. Members of the Subcommittee will not be compensated for their
services. The PECSEA is seeking private-sector members with senior
export control expertise and direct experience in one or more of the
following industries: Machine tools, semiconductors, commercial
communication satellites, high performance computers,
telecommunications, aircraft, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals.
