  1. COMSTAC Export Control Working Group Draft Findings, Observations, and Recommendations May 14, 2013

  2. Observations • COMSTAC applauds the passage of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 restoring authority to the President to transfer satellites from the United States Munitions List (“USML”) to the Commerce Control List (“CCL”) to allow for the appropriate control of technology and promote the competitiveness of the domestic space industry. • COMSTAC strongly encourages the timely implementation of the provisions in the FY2013 NDAA and the transfer of certain defense articles on Category XV of the USML to the CCL as proposed by the Departments of Defense and State Report to Congress pursuant to Section 1248 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010 (“Section 1248 Report”).

  3. Finding • COMSTAC encourages the FAA and other space stakeholders to pro-actively evaluate current export controls on space technology, in order to strike the appropriate balance between national security and supporting a strong and competitive domestic space manufacturing industry. This assessment should evaluate not only whether additional space-related technology should be recommended for transfer from the USML to the CCL, but also whether the current level of control applied under the Export Administration Regulations are appropriate or should be adjusted.

  4. Recommendations • None
