| 2015-19274 | Russian Sanctions: Addition to the Entity List To Prevent Violations of Russian Industry Sector Sanctions | Rule | This final rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to further implement U.S. sanctions on certain Russian energy projects. Specifically, in this rule, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) amends the EAR by adding a Russian oil and gas field, the Yuzhno-Kirinskoye Field located in the Sea of Okhotsk, to the Entity List. This Russian field is reported to contain substantial reserves of oil in addition to reserves of gas. The U.S. Government has determined, therefore, that exports, reexports, and transfers (in- country) of all items subject to the EAR to this Russian field by any person without first obtaining a BIS license present an unacceptable risk of use in, or diversion to, the activities specified in the Russian industry sector sanctions. Thus, as part of the BIS "is informed" process, this final rule adds this Russian field to the Entity List to further implement the Russian industry sector sanctions. This Russian field will be listed on the Entity List under the destination of Russia. This final rule clarifies the introductory text of the Entity List to specify that the embargoes and other special controls part of the EAR is also used to add entities to the Entity List. Lastly, this final rule makes a change to the Russian industry sector sanctions by clarifying the additional prohibition on those informed by BIS also includes end-uses that are within the scope of the Russian Industry sector sanctions. | 2015-08-07 | 2015 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/08/07/2015-19274/russian-sanctions-addition-to-the-entity-list-to-prevent-violations-of-russian-industry-sector | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2015-08-07/pdf/2015-19274.pdf | Commerce Department; Industry and Security Bureau | 54,241 | This final rule amends the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) to further implement U.S. sanctions on certain Russian energy projects.
