In addition to the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. Department of State , these other U.S. governmental agencies are also involved in the regulation of exports: The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) administers U.S. tariff and trade laws and enforces export/import laws and regulations, partially through the Customs and Border Protection Service (CBP) . The U.S. Department of Justice enforces laws and regulations relating to alcohol, tobacco products, firearms, explosives, and arson, and receives issues from other Departments and Agencies.

11. Export Controls Are Important! The system of controls is designed for the avoidance of release of data or technology in an unauthorized manner (defined as being “ in violation of the Export Administration Regulations [EAR], or any other applicable laws” ). The EAR’s requires record-keeping and reporting requirements to the government. Potential fines include up to $1,000,000 and up to 10 years in prison per count charged. July 2009 Presentation By James Shaw of Export Experts LLC

12. Federal Export Control Programs are Extensive! The U.S. Government restricts the release of the following information to foreign nationals within the United States and abroad through the U.S. export regulations and embargoes: critical technologies, technical data/software code, equipment, chemicals/biological materials, and other materials, information and services Penalties for violating export control regulations include fines, loss of export privileges, personal liability to personnel, and damage to an organization’s business and reputation in the community.

13. Federal Export Control Regulations apply to many elements of our daily work activities: T A primary reason is “National Security” ; to prevent weapons, defense articles, services, or dual use commodities from harming the United States or its allies. Designed to prevent controlled articles from being transmitted in any way outside the U.S. or within the U.S. to foreign person, or organization, or to knowingly cause or permit any other person to do so unless the following conditions are fully complied with: The information, service or export is lawfully provided and has been covered by an appropriate license, agreement, permit, exception, or exemption.

U.S. Government record-keeping and reporting requirements are satisfied as required by the Federal Regulations. July 2009 Export Controls ? Why is this important to you? Presentation By James Shaw of Export Experts LLC

14. July 2009 It is essential to understand and accept this concept: “ Exports” include the following – Shipment * of a controlled material, item, or good. Transmission (including fax, digital or hand-carried) of any controlled information related to a controlled item Release or disclosure (including verbal or visual) of any controlled technology, software or technical data either abroad, or in the U.S. (e.g. “deemed export”) Use or application of controlled technology on behalf of, or for the benefit of, any foreign person or entity, either abroad or in the U.S.A. Specific definitions, regulations, exemptions and exclusions depend upon the governing agency for the exported item. * Even within the United States! Export Control Facts: Presentation By James Shaw of Export Experts LLC

15. And there are trends towards more controls… As you need to be aware, the increased focus on imports and exports is due to the fact that their potential for use as terrorism tools is a reality. The United States Government is increasing the focus on enforcement of technical information to persons within the United States that may not be entitled to receive such information (a “deemed export”) FBI’s “College and University Security Effort“ (CAUSE) Program and the Academic Alliance http://www.fbi.gov/page2/april06/academicalliance040506.htm Gives an increased focus on life sciences and biological materials. July 2009 Presentation By James Shaw of Export Experts LLC

16. Controls Also Apply to “Deemed Exports” What is a “Deemed Export”? This is an activity wherein goods or technology may not actually transfer from the United States, but can be information or technology (including educational materials) given to non-resident foreign persons… NOTE: The “CAUSE” Security Program between the FBI and Educational Institutions is a useful example. July 2009 Presentation By James Shaw of Export Experts LLC

17. July 2009 Read The Small Print! Comply with all export laws and regulations in the US, and of each foreign country in which an activity may take place, except where the law of a foreign country may be inconsistent with U.S. law and in that case the U.S. Law will absolutely prevail! Only develop and disseminate approved training and compliance-related materials as may be found within the United States’ government’s laws, regulations, policies, processes and controls with regard to such “Export Controls” to persons present in the United State, or in conjunction with persons located outside of the United States (i.e. employees, contractors, or other parties.) Ensure that all records of Exports, Deemed Exports, & Import records and licenses are maintained in accordance with all U.S. government regulations and treaties. Ensure all persons; employees, executives, management, supervisors, associates, trainees, academic faculty, administrative staff, and students understand their roles and responsibilities with regard to Export Control, including authorized agents, Import & Export Compliance License requirements (ECLPS), and shipping requirements Compliance Requirements: (not optional!) Presentation By James Shaw of Export Experts LLC

18. July 2009 Export Control Facts (Continued...) The Government also utilizes the term “Deemed Export” to describe export of technology, data, designs and R&D, or source code when released to a foreign national within the United States. “ Release” is the making of technology or software available to foreign nationals, either visually, orally or by practice or application, under guidance of persons with knowledge of the technology or software Such conditions Includes “use technology” – information on the operation, installation, maintenance, repair, overhaul, and/or refurbishing of controlled equipment and access to proprietary manual. Be careful! Presentation By James Shaw of Export Experts LLC

19. Exports can occur when someone provides foreign persons “access” to technical information. For example, in the hosting of a visitor, the hiring of a consultant, and through the use of an outside legal/auditing/translation or other service. Simply giving a factory tour, giving a tour or demonstration in a laboratory, or the publishing or otherwise promulgation of technical data, including the making of presentations, even through casual talk and conversations, and do not overlook the impact of sending emails, faxes, data file transfers, etc. Export control obligations may well exist if you provide data, drawings, technology or sample commodities to a person or business and/or have a reason to believe it will be passed on subsequently to a foreign country or person.
