  CHAPTER VII--BUREAU OF EXPORT ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
 
PART 742--CONTROL POLICY--CCL BASED CONTROLS--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 742.1  Introduction.

    In this part, references to the Export Administration Regulations 
(EAR) are references to 15 CFR chapter VII, subchapter C.
    (a) Scope. This part describes all the reasons for control reflected 
in the Country Chart in Supplement No. 1 to part 738 of the EAR. In 
addition, it includes licensing requirements and licensing policies for 
the following items that are not reflected on the Country Chart: 
specially designed implements of torture, high performance computers, 
and communications intercepting devices. In addition to describing the 
reasons for control and licensing requirements and policies, this part 
describes any applicable contract sanctity provisions that may apply to 
specific controls and includes a description of any multilateral regime 
under which specific controls are maintained.
    (b) Reasons for control listed on the CCL not covered by this part. 
This part describes the license requirements and the licensing policies 
for all the ``Reasons for Control'' that are listed on the Commerce 
Control List (CCL) except ``Short Supply'' and ``U.N. Sanctions,'' which 
do not appear on the Country Chart.
    (1) Short Supply. ECCNs containing items subject to short supply 
controls (``SS'') refer the exporter to part 754 of the EAR. These ECCNs 
are: 0A980 (Horses for export by sea); 1C980 (certain inorganic 
chemicals); 1C981 (Crude petroleum, including reconstituted crude 
petroleum, tar sands, and crude shale oil); 1C982 (certain other 
petroleum products); 1C983 (Natural gas liquids and other natural gas 
derivatives);

1C984 (certain manufactured gas and synthetic natural gas (except when 
commingled with natural gas and thus subject to export authorization 
from the Department of Energy); and 1C988 (Western red cedar (thuja 
plicata) logs and timber, and rough, dressed and worked lumber 
containing wane).
    (2) U.N. Sanctions. The United Nations imposes sanctions, short of 
complete embargoes, against certain countries which may result in 
controls that supplement those otherwise maintained under the EAR for 
that particular country. This part does not address license requirements 
and licensing policies for controls implementing U.N. sanctions. CCL 
entries containing items subject to U.N. sanctions will refer the 
exporter to part 746 of the EAR, Embargoes and Other Special Controls, 
for any supplemental controls that may apply to exports and reexports 
involving these countries.
    (c) Exports and reexports involving Cuba, Libya, Iraq, Iran, and the 
Bosnian Serb-controlled areas of Bosnia-Herzegovina. This part does not 
cover license requirements and licensing policies that apply to exports 
and reexports to embargoed destinations (Cuba, Libya, Iraq, Iran and the 
Bosnian-Serb controlled areas of Bosnia-Herzegovina). These 
comprehensive embargoes cover a broader range of items than those 
reflected in the CCL. If you are exporting or reexporting to any of 
these destinations, you should first review part 746 of the EAR, 
Embargoes and Other Special Controls.
    (d) Anti-terrorism Controls on Cuba, Libya, Iran, Iraq, North Korea, 
Sudan and Syria. Commerce maintains anti-terrorism controls on Iran, 
North Korea, Syria and Sudan under section 6(a) of the Export 
Administration Act. Items controlled under section 6(a) to these three 
countries are described in Supplement No. 2 to part 742. Commerce also 
maintains controls under section 6(j) of the EAA to Cuba, Libya, Iraq, 
Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria. Items controlled to these seven 
countries under EAA section 6(j) are also described in Supplement 2 to 
part 742. The Secretaries of Commerce and State are required to notify 
appropriate Committees of the Congress 30 days before issuing a license 
for an item controlled under section 6(j) to Cuba, Libya, North Korea, 
Iran, Iraq, Sudan or Syria. As noted in paragraph (c) of this section, 
if you are exporting or reexporting to Cuba, Libya, Iran, and Iraq, you 
should review Part 746 of the EAR, Embargoes and Other Special Controls.
    (e) End-user and end-use based controls. This part does not cover 
prohibitions and licensing requirements for exports of items not 
included on the CCL that are subject to end-use and end-user controls: 
certain nuclear end-uses; certain missile end-uses; certain chemical and 
biological weapons end-uses; certain naval nuclear propulsion end-uses; 
certain activities of U.S. persons; certain exports to and for the use 
of certain foreign vessels or aircraft; and certain exports to all 
countries for Libyan aircraft. Licensing requirements and policies for 
these exports are contained in part 744 of the EAR.
    (f) Overlapping license policies. Many items on the CCL are subject 
to more than one type of control (e.g., national security (NS), missile 
technology (MT), nuclear nonproliferation (NP), regional stability 
(RS)). In addition, applications for all items on the CCL, other than 
those controlled for short supply reasons, may be reviewed for missile 
technology (see Sec. 742.5(b)(3) of this part), nuclear nonproliferation 
(see Sec. 742.3(b)(2) of this part), or chemical and biological weapons 
(see Sec. 742.2(b)(3) of this part), if the end-use or end-user may be 
involved in certain proliferation activities. Finally, many 
multilaterally controlled items are reviewed for anti-terrorism reasons 
if they are destined for a terrorism-supporting country (see paragraph 
(d) of this section). Your application for a license will be reviewed 
under all applicable licensing policies. A license will be issued only 
if an application can be approved under all applicable licensing 
policies.
