Abstract
The Bureau of Export Administration (BXA) maintains the Commerce Control List (CCL), which identifies those items subject to Department of Commerce export licensing requirements. Consistent with technological changes, this interim rule adjusts the License Exception CIV eligibility level for microprocessors controlled by Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 3A001 from a composite theoretical performance (CTP) of equal to or less than 500 million theoretical operations per second (MTOPS) to a CTP of equal to or less than 1200 MTOPS. License Exception CIV is available for exports and reexports to civil end-users for civil end-uses in Country Group D:1. BXA will continue to review the technical levels for microprocessors.
