Webinar: Export Control Reform Proposed Rule Updates
Managed by Optica
08 March 2016
v
The proposed rule is part of the Administration’s Export Control Reform effort. Category XII was the last category considered due to the complexity of the areas it covers. In May, a proposed rule was released and over 100 companies including The Optical Society voiced our concern with the proposal.
The Departments of Commerce, State and Defense clearly heard the call from our community and addressed many of the concerns raised. Although an improvement, we urge companies to carefully review the rule for issues that may impact their organization. The comment period is a short 45 days.
